They're not quite on the same level. DID could technically be predicted from episode one (actually, I found it a bit suspicious how Kanon seemed to be there whenever she needed to be comforted). I'd say DID is still a really bad idea for a mystery. Let's hope it's a red herring.

The thing is, the real nature of the curse or whatever Takano's group was up to was never all that important.
Higurashi was more a story of 6 mentally unstable kids, that went batshit at the slightest provocation, thrown together with the curse mysteriously lingering in the background.
Characters are what drove Higurashi, not the mystery.

So when a Umineko came along and set itself up as a proper mystery I got hyped as hell.

Then I started writing down Red Text, thinking that it was an interesting take at first.

DID could be an effective plot devise, in a romance or some stupid shit like that. In a mystery it can not ever be a good plot device. Sure DID might address the HOW, but it does not address the WHY. First off, why does Shanon have fucking DID? Why does DID cause her to kill people? Why do several people ignore her DID? Why does the detective never notice any signs at all of her DID? To be a proper mystery and utilize this device it must be possible for the reader to gauge why the device is in place. This reminds me of Episode 5 when they were accusing Natsuhi. You can make up all the shit in the world to technically fit the solution, but it doesn't matter if there's no reason why it's correct in the first place!

a theory is her brother Kanon actually existed, then died or left in dubious circumstances, and she created her imaginary Kanon side to cope with that. The foundation for that line of thought is Kanon is mentioned to have changed in the past few years, and a servant had an accident and supposedly quit one or two years ago.

But even discounting that we know Shannon hasn't been happy. She's not good at being a servant and so Natsuhi and the others belittle her, and the only good thing in her recent life is her relationship with George, which has led Eva to openly threaten her. She's stuck in her own personal hell, with few ways out (ie George or quit).

–Do you plan on reviving her (Beatrice)?

Ryuukishi: In the plot for Episode 6, which we’re considering now, we’re thinking of a way that we can revive Beato. But if too many other things pop up that we want to write about, who knows?(laughs) However, it does seem that Battler doesn’t enjoy Beato being in low spirits all the time and wants the brighter Beato to come back. The thing I don’t want you to misunderstand is that Battler doesn’t want to return to a world where he and Beato are basically on the same side. He only wants to end this tale in a way that will make Beato satisfied. Shortly after Episode 5′s release, many people pointed to Battler’s acceptance into the ranks of witches and wondered “Hasn’t Battler lost sight of his goal?”, but that’s not the case. As Bern said in the beginning of Episode 5, Battler has no chance of being released unless he defeats Beato’s riddles. At the end of Episode 4, we learn that “Beatrice hopes Battler will win and end this game”, so Battler must win. Furthermore, at the end of Episode 5, Battler reaches the fundamental truth behind “who, for what purpose, and why”. If he can lay that bare, he will win. So, if we liken it to chess, Battler actually hasn’t yet made a move to achieve checkmate. The process that will lead to a checkmate has only been formulated in his mind. So, according to our plans at the present, Episode 6 will be a tale about proving whether Battler actually did reach all the way to the truth. He will actually make and carry out the moves he has thought of. In other words, Battler becoming the Game Master “proves that he has understood everything about the world of Umineko”.

No. Most are *assuming* he's changed because of LOLOLEV. It's a bit different. When did this so-called love start? Isn't it mentioned Jessica started liking him one or two years ago? The timing roughly fits with when the accident is supposed to have occured, and thus the hypothetical switch to multiple personas, ie love machine Kanon is a result of Shannon taking up the mantle.

And while we're at it, unless I'm mistaken, it's shortly before that that George's attempts to woo Shannon started to get through to her, ie also fitting timing for when she got DID-happy.

>a theory is her brother Kanon actually existed, then died or left in dubious circumstances, and she created her imaginary Kanon side to cope with that. The foundation for that line of thought is Kanon is mentioned to have changed in the past few years, and a servant had an accident and supposedly quit one or two years ago.

How about the servant was pushed down the stairs by Shannontrice, who then created Kanon as a foil for Beatrice? Nobody was hurt again until Battler came back and it'd explain Kanon and Beatrice's pre-Ep6 antagonism. The dates do not quite match as Kanon started 3 years ago but human memory isn't guaranteed, but Shannon says in Ep1 the accident happened before she started working, so the dates are already messed up.

Servants loved Kinzo so much they decided to do a ceremony to ressurect him. They sacrifice Shanon in the altar Kinzo had in the chapel .Kinzo is ressurected but in a zombie like state so they hide him.
To cover the killing of Shannon Genji tells Kanon to imitate her. And so ShKanon is born.
Kinzo is a living dead now and the conference is about to start.Kinzo escapes, and the massacre is starting and because he needs food he killst he six first and eats a part of thier body. The servants now must undo the ceremony to send Kinzo back to hell, so the took out the 4 Stakes and they start to gough their victims.
The remaining family members learn about the ceremony too and they had in possesion the other 3 stakes. So family vs servants battle is starting. Eventually 7 people die and the spell is completed or so they thought...
They didn't know that the spell was incompleted, they didnt used the most important element to perform the ceremony,

So the spell goes terribly wrong and causes a huge explosion that kills everyone

Ep6 was a bit of a disappointment, but it can't be helped. After all, everyone was expecting Battler to kick ass big time and show that he's really mastered the game and understood the final truth.
Instead, he spent a big part of the episode being a zombie inside a closed room caused by his own logic error and didn't really do anything worthwhile.

From Ep4:
By itself, the Rokkenjima accident gave rise to nothing but suspicion of a conspiracy regarding Eva oba-san and the Ushiromiya family. ......But later on... It was dramatized and linked to the occult, and the conspiracy was painted over by the legend of the witch."

Beatrice is both a person and a rule. The explosion, whatever causes it, is the final element that gives rise to the legend of the witch and the Witch Hunt.

That's the difference between the two Beatrices that appear in Ep6, the one who was born because of Battler and the elder. It's probably also why the Beatrice who says she'll kill Battler in Ep4 (which is also the only time Beatrice has stated she's killed anyone in red) isn't the Beatrice that had been impaled by Battler.

>> No.5636820

>shkanon is the murderer!

Nope. Ep06 clearly shows Erika was the murderer.

>But what about the other times?

None of it matters, This was ep06's true purpose. The murderers are a tool for one thing: Finding out Battler's sin. Ep06 proves that all the games are just glimpses to figure out this truth. This is why R07 stresses the white text is the important part.

>So what's the truth?

Well there are several things, important things, that need to be recalled and thought about: Kyrie's relation to Battler, the murdered child, the hidden mansion, and who Beatrice is, and the riddle I would say are the most important parts. That isn't all though, the meta world is also there for more than just entertainment.

The mysteries, the red text, the flashy battles, they're all just trying to get you to figure out the characters. That's their only purpose. You guys are working to solve the wrong thing. Shkanon might solve a murder or two, but that's all. Shkanon doesn't solve Umineko.

Well, I'm dissapointed. Guy who asked you to explain the WHY portion of ShKanon here. Your reasons are entirely based upon very vague statements and events which don't even match up in time. No one even explained why DID is making her kill everyone. I must again reiterate that if you can not explain the WHY it is not an answer.

Also, I kinda feel like you're trying to cheat. You should start at the motive and then move to how it was committed. The way you're doing it is jumping to any possibility which seems to fit the red. It's funny because pretty much every character beside Shanon and Kanon has some very apparent motivation. Only these two don't. Being picked on a bit by Natsuhi is not motivation for murder, by the way. That's just pathetic reasoning.
