It's a big scale conspiracy type of mystery spanning 5 years. It works really well, but it's definitely not the type of mystery that sets especific rules, times of death, or limits the number of possible suspects. It's its own thing, so I'm OK with Ciconia doing something different again.

Higurashi asks you to think big and guess what the fuck is going on with all this crazy shit. It gets even crazier when Rika shows signs of knowing about other worlds, which forces to you to think about the mystery on a meta level and try to figure out what exactly is going on with the magic element of the story. Before that, you'd just assume that the existence of different episodes wouldn't be brought up in the story itself.

The thing with Higurashi is that it gives you so few hints and constraints that there's no way you could ever arrive at the conclusion by yourself. The problem is so open that you could come up with endless "solutions" that don't contradict anything but aren't what Ryukishi had in mind. And the real solution still requires you to accept magic and mystery illnesses.
Also, Higurashi just doesn't get to the point very fast. The early episodes don't really show you much that's actually related to the real big mystery and instead focuses a lot more on the paranoia/unreliable narrator aspects.

I think Umineko is a lot better in this regard since you could actually figure out the main points of the solution by episode 2. And the red truth and Knox rules provide enough guidance so that you can actually make progress solving the riddle by restricting yourself to what's actually possible under the "rules".

But it's not a classic mystery. It's a story about insane government conspiracies seen through the eyes of mentally ill protagonists. You are not supposed to consider the Knox rules or think about the typical mystery shit. You are supposed to put on a tin foil hat.and try to come up with some crazy explanation for all the shit that happens. There are almost no rules. And I love it.

So I don't get why people want the entire WTC series to be like Umineko. Each story did its own thing, it was never exlusively about classic golden era mysteries. So Ciconia could do its own thing and still be worthy of the title, as long as it makes you think and theorize.

Imagine a Higurashi spin-off in which Rena or some other survivor becomes a detective as an adult and tries to figure out what happened in Hinamizawa and unravel the conspiracy.

Imagine an Umineko spin-off in which Yasu gets cold feet and we get to see the family leave the island peacefully to live the rest of their lives. The protagonist could be adult Maria living off autism bux or something and it would be really heartwarming to see how everyone is doing ten years in the future.

I don't think everything should be like Umineko, I think Higurashi was fine. What I have a problem with is not that you can't really figure out what's going on from the hints you're given, but that Ryukishi keeps insisting you mull it over regardless. And also I don't think the big government conspiracy itself is particularly interesting or makes much sense either.
I love the question arcs of Higurashi because of that paranoid feeling where you feel like you can't trust anyone, not even yourself. But when the curtain is finally lifted I find the conclusion to be a bit lackluster.

I do hope that Ciconia makes you think and theorize but from Ryukishi's tweets to me it sounds like he's saying "there might be parts where you could think if you really wanted to but you don't need to". Maybe I'm just reading too much into it or maybe he's just trying to get people to relax their expectations, I don't know.

And then Matsuribayashi-hen happened (and to a lesser extent Minagoroshi-hen).

One of the things that made the earlier arcs seem much more down-to-earth was that the cast felt far more fragile and vulnerable.

Keiichi wasn't some Shonen hero who could knock out fully grown soldiers with flying Karate kicks. Mion wasn't a master martial artist who could Judo flip someone like Okonogi faster than the eye can see. They were just kids, and when violence took place it fucking hurt. I mean compare all the scenes with the Yamainu goons being knocked out like stereotypical henchman with the parts where Rina or Teppei got bludgeoned.

Ryukishi pretty much wrote himself into a corner with the government conspiracy. He had to turn the Club into a bunch of larger-than-life superheroes for them to beat Takano's forces. And in doing so all sense of powerlessness went right out the window.

>> No.45608567

>>45608515
I agree. Also I just don't see why the whole government conspiracy thing was necessary. Higurashi has a perfectly good premise with the club members falling into paranoia for no good reason. Ryukishi could've just resolved that and ended on the same central message of "always trust your friends" without needing to bring large scale conspiracies into the picture.
To me a big part of the appeal of the early parts of Higurashi was the small scale, just an ordinary bunch of kids in a more or less ordinary small mountain village thinking themselves into a paranoia that they can't get themselves out of again.

They aren't super soldiers, they are an intelligence unit. And they didn't expect the kids to fight back. I know what you mean, but I don't really dislike it. It's a really triumphant ending for the story.

It's not like they did anything impossible for a human. They just had balls, put in some effort and got really fucking lucky. That's what gives the story tension at this point. Hanyuu has basically used up all of her remaining power to turn into a physical being and become the piece that was previously missing.

Rika knows they are risking their last chance at a happy future, so from her perspective this is all tense as fuck. Of course they are all going to survive somehow, the reader knows this. They are struggling against insurmountable odds and somehow winning by pure luck. It's fucking magical. But even that luck wouldn't be worth shit if the were weak-willed and didn't give it their all to save their friends.

Of course it is, that's what Ryuukishi intended. It's not just your typical paranoia, it's literally a bunch of microscopic bugs physically messing with his brain chemicals because they got upset over the climate or whatever, which plungs him into a nighmarish, unbearable, terrifying persecution complex that gets worse by the minute.

Of course something like that would be more terrifying than some obscure shady people plotting a conspiracy. Onikakushi is meant to be the scariest part of the story, because you still know nothing about the true nature of this creepy village.

>> No.45608684

>>45608645
It's not just that though. Matsuribayashi-hen is a story that's almost devoid of tension. About the only time it actually feels like the cast could be in some deep shit is when Shion and Kasai have to hold off the Yamainu, before getting taken hostage. From then on there wasn't a single scene where it felt like the club's victory wasn't inevitable.

It's obvious that they are going to win after all the set-up. It wouldn't feel right if it ended with a downer ending, so I don't think Ryuukishi really wanted to make you doubt whether they would win or not.

The point is that the characters, especially Rika, are not sure if they are going to win or not. They are pulling a crazy stunt after another and somehow still resisting.

Honestly, I was more worried about Takano's fate throughout the entire thing. The introduction to the episode makes it very easy to empathize with her, but her actions are still abominable.

It's obvious that every main character will get a good ending, but the villain is the one person you are supposed to be worried about. You never know if she will do something crazy and kill herself or have her freedom and life destroyed to pay for her crimes. So it really keeps you at the edge of your seat, not sure of what will become of her.

I still have mixed feelings about Takano and she's my favorite character in the story. I can't decide if she deserves to be forgiven or not, because the shit she did to Rika's parents was just unforgivable. But I also find her incredibly pitiable.

It's more the sadness of watching a loved one deteriorate and die with the feeling of having wasted his life on a research that got ridiculed and rejected. It must have killed his spirit. It's hard to watch someone have their passion and dreams destroyed, especially if it's your grandfather. Grandparents tend to give you nothing but love, so the idea of something bad happening to them is infuriating.

I can understand that sense of guilt and pity towards a old, fragile relative, so I get where Takano is coming from.

Of professional mercenaries with tons of guns. Come on, Matsuribayashi is just a fucking cartoon with no tension because you know for a fact the good guys are gonna win with their wacky saturday morning cartoon antics because the soldiers all of sudden conveniently don't use guns even Satoko is literally right in front of them going ohoho. If they make it painfully obvious that the good guys are going to win, there's no tension.

Matsuribayashi was rushed, there's no other way to explain the massive jump between her story and suddenly deciding to murder thousands of villagers because of muh grandpa. She didn't do it with remorse either, in fact, she looked pretty fucking giddy when she vivisected Rika and her mom, and when she kills everyone she just orgasms right there and then about becoming a god. It would've made sense if she had gotten revenge against the people who caused his suicide, and she didn't even do that. Also everyone just conveniently forgives her at the end literally the moment she's captured and saved by Tomitake cause they're all such pure-hearted fucking saints who can forgive mass genocide attempts like it was nothing.

>She didn't do it with remorse either, in fact, she looked pretty fucking giddy when she vivisected Rika and her mom, and when she kills everyone she just orgasms right there and then about becoming a god.

Matsuribayashi (VN) pretty much completely ignores all that though. It even acts like Takano knew she might end up dead and having her studies hidden afterwards even if she "won", completely different from her characterization in Minagoroshi. Note that the one who actually suggests killing Rika's parents is Okonogi, and Takano just gets happy he's so loyal to her and she has such power to accomplish her goal. At least in the VN.

The manga does add her going crazy and laughing while killing Rika's mother, but like I said, the VN really seemed to want to ignore all that stuff from Minagoroshi. In fact, her spreading wrong theories just to mess with people also isn't addressed in Matsuribayashi at all. I don't think it's due to it being rushed though, it's R07 outright trying to shove under the carpet parts of her character to make her more sympathetic.

No clue which vn you're talking about but if you mean umineko, I have terminal autism about spoilers and still managed to enjoy it despite having the culprit spoiled for me early on. There's a ton to the mystery that you can still figure out on your own and a lot of mysteries that don't even appear until later on in the story, there's no one piece of information that could ruin the entire mystery for you because the story is incoherent as fuck.
What even was the spoiler though?

Higurashi or Umineko?
For Umi say for instance you see a thumbnail where someone is a killer. It could be a meta-universe explanation of why that character was somewhere in a given time which is then shot down and then the good version and the evil version of that character fight to determine what is true and false about the accusation.

If one or two certain things of Higurashi were spoiled I can see that sucking but Umi is pure autism without a clear answer, even if you see it with your own eyes.

I don't even know which part of that could've been spoiled from a youtube thumbnail but saikoroshi is basically just an epilogue, like the whole arc is part of a separate higurashi release which takes place after the end of the main series. If the twist you were spoiled on is something vague and simple like the existence of timeloops or that Rika is "special" or something then don't worry too much about it, knowing stuff like that doesn't fuck up the whole reading experience the same way that other stories with similar elements do. My advice is just to read the first episode onikakushi, it's really good as a standalone and you'll either get hooked or you won't. If you get to that point and don't feel like reading further then don't bother, just read the manga or watch the anime instead. If you end up getting really into it then avoid everything about it online like the plague because there definitely are certain details that might ruin it for you, but I promise there is a fuckton of content in the story that a spoiler or two won't ruin the whole thing. I love when people blogpost about their theories and shit here but be super careful reading anything especially if you get really into it.

Except this manga has its own core issues that have nothing to do with Sotsu, it's not saving jack shit when it's not even good on its own. It's just a soulless gore show by an assasinated character with no motivation, and what little she mentions is straight up contradictory (I HAVE to cause my friends horrible torture and murder to reset the loops and keep enjoying my perfect summer for some reason, all while laughing evilly too because I suddenly have become a monstruous sadist for no reason, even though I was already resetting loops just by killing myself before I went crazy!). These last few chapters reek of sheer audience pleasing rather than anything that came naturally from the story. The thought of Satoshi magically fixing Satoko's nonsensical issues is hackier than anything in Sotsu, literally nothing but a convenient plot-solving macguffin.

The themes for Gou, Sotsu, and Mei are completely different from Ciconia, which was centered around elites engineering the apocalypse and the metaphysical entities involved. Gou/Sotsu is just your average plot-driven thriller with no connection to the original spirit. It's either that or diving into fantasy realm like Type-Moon. The narrative of Ciconia had to be censored by the overlords. Shallow minds will not be able to grasp this truth.

No one with a functioning brain is saying that putting something fans have been waiting two decades for into the garbage that is the whole new higurashi is going to create a miraculously good product. Having a story revolving around Satoko that completely ignores Satoshi is a crime against imagination in itself, and I hope someone in the land of the rising sun handily explains it to Ryukishi the old-fashioned way.
>it's forced emotional trash only put in there to trick retards like you into thinking this is somehow a good well written ending
That's funny, because it sounds exactly like the ending of Sotsu, which you're basically praising in a moment.
>at least sotsu had the fucking respect not to have Satoko and Satoshi interact
Don't be mistaken. This has nothing to do with respect. Passione just didn't know what Satoko and Satoshi should say to each other, because they're just completely incompetent, and since Satoshi is practically dead to Ryukishi, there was no one to give them advice. The whole ending, after all, was just a charade to fool the audience, to cover up all the shit that came before.
>>45645024
Sure, it'd be awesome if Tomato said this is such a piece of shit I'd rather ditch the whole project, but let's be real. His fanfiction is still miles better than Goushitsu just by omitting most of the utter garbage from the brain-dead writers and directors at Passione. Anyway, still no answer as to what Tomato should have done with that disastrous story.

They had an entire chapter about her presenting a twisted view of the original series and its tragedies bringing everyone together motivation.

Although Rika still pokes a role into that and accuses her of just wanting to run away (which although true, just makes her despair even more since no matter how hard she tried she only saw despair and death in her futures).

I REALLY don't get people who say Satoko's motivation are just an excuse in Meguri. The chapters focused on them were easily some of the strongest parts of the manga exactly because they have little to do with the nosense from Sotsu.

>> No.45646156

Also, Satoshi IS explained here. The Hinamizawa Syndrome virus is inactive, like already said since before the Akashi arcs in Meguri. But due to the time he was ill he had lasting brain damage, so Irie put him to sleep, since he feared Satoko meeting him and him being under the syndrome would be even worse for Satoko's state.

Shion remembered all of Wataakashi and decided to bet on Satoshi, allowing them to meet immediately in order to break through Satoko's despair for the future showing things can be different.

Shut the fuck up you baiting piece of trash meguri is a million times worse because it led to mouth breathing fucking retards like you who will defend this piece of shit story just because a painfully mediocre second half was better than the garbage that was Sotsu. His fanfiction is hot fucking garbage because he shoves in so many ideas fans WANTED to see happen for years in this dumpster fire of a story like Keiichi having memory leaks of all the previous fragments remembering everything and Satoko and Satoshi finally meeting. Unlike with Sotsu where everything is just swept under a rug and Satoshi never gets to meet Satoko when the show ends. And the way he goes about making all these ideas happen is fucking retarded just having them happen because... reasons... and here's your answer to what Tomato should've done, he should've just adapted Sotsu and be done with it instead of trying to make this piece of shit any better (which he failed in and made it so much worse) you're like a fucking child, I bet if he drew Ooishi, Irie and Tomitake coming in to help Keiichi with his plans after receiving memory leaks to you'd squealing like a girl praising it as so much better than sotsu.

I'm beginning to understand. You're one of those twitter idiots who cried that Tomato wouldn't adapt the Sotsu they worshipped and praised, which is another reason why Meguri is superior. Reading their seething posts every time Tomato basically gave Sotsu the middle finger thanks to his changes was at least a little amusing. For another, we all know what happens next and what the impact of this piece will be in the grand scheme of things. Once Meguri ends, it will be forgotten just like the vast majority of the garbage the new higurashi brought, so I see no reason not to make at least some part of the fandom happy by making their pleas heard. Pleas that Ryukishi doesn't give a shit about. Pleas that even I myself don't give a damn about, because you don't seem to have gotten the message yet. By saying that Meguri is better than Sotsu, I'm not saying that I consider Meguri to be good, amazing, or well-written, but that's probably too complex a concept for you to grasp. Furthermore, if you're someone who considers Reiwa to be something amazing, this conversation is probably completely pointless. No, true love doesn't win in two weeks or four weeks or ever.

Hilariously, Mei actually is doing a bunch of stuff similar to Ciconia. Conspiracy that aims to strip human will and completely control the world? Worldwide pandemic that gets a vaccine, but the vaccine turns out to be a trap and actually a tool of the conspiracy (zombie plague prophetized in Ciconia, while Mei had the sleeping disease pandemic, but it has been revealed that the deaths Miyuki saw in the future shown to her by Tamura were actually caused by the vaccine made "Miyoko Takano" against the sleeping disease. And this Miyoko apparently isn't the actual Takano at all since she doesn't recognize Mion.
