While you're correct to an extent, realize that one of the necessary qualities of a good "adaptation" is being able to transfer it to a different medium and still have a good, coherent product. In that sense, Umineko is a far worse adaptation than Higurashi, even if a larger quantity of events was cut from the Higurashi anime.

That's all there, sans Bern, I guess, though I don't know where you're getting that from anyway, outside of the quotes. Same goes for Hanyuu's internal dialogue.

Obviously it's not going to be as exhaustive with development as the VN, but it's still fine. To say it's a poor adaptation isn't fair, because Deen really did a good job packing in a 50+ hour VN into 55 episodes.

Actually, I'll agree with the lack of Tokyo development. That really was hardly touched on in the show.

Internal dialogue is a whole different story, and not something that really adapts well. Shion, Rena, Rika and K1 missed out on some development in their respective arcs as a result.

I watched the anime but I haven't read the VN yet. But it as a really good series. And I'm sure like with most movies not living up to the book the same applies to VN adaptions. You have to expect some cuts and changes.

I saw the Umineko anime before reading the VN. I was amazed at how much was left out and left vague. Overall I liked it though. It had some charm. but it was definitely lacking. Maria is a lot less annoying though. For that I'm grateful. all that uu uu! wears on your nerves after awhile. And in the VN I just kept thinking of Arnold Horshach from Welcome Back Kotter.
