The bomb was rigged by Kinzo, but not set. It goes off at midnight when it is set. Eva set it after Natsuhi and Krauss died to make everyone go along with her plan to escape to Kuwadorian and make it look like Natsuhi and Krauss died in an accident.

Okay. Let me know if I am understanding this wrong or right.

Yasu = the baby thrown off the cliff, raised in an orphanage.
Lyon = the baby when it is not thrown off the cliff, raised as Ushiromiya heir.
Yasu = Lyon = Shannon = Kanon. They are all the same person, or body rather.

So in this ep, how can Yasu and Lyon exist at the same time? I know it was said that Lyon was placed on the gameboard, thus Lyon and Yasu both exist, i.e. Lyon speaking to Shannon blah blah.

Not quite. The Dark Knight refers to Eva never allowing Ange to know that Kyrie killed everyone.

What happened with Natsuhi and Krauss was a comedy of errors, partially egged on by (take a wild guess)

Do remember, Ange sees all of what occurs, and the reason she flips out is because she can't believe that Eva was good and her parents were not so good.

Yasu accepts the name Leon when talking to Kinzo at the end of the episode. I'm not really sure what you're asking, though.

>Also, who is Claire? I know she is Minty Beatrice or whatever, but who is she? What is her relation to all of this shit.
It goes like this. Yasu was a very clumsy maid. She always forgot things and lost them, including her keys. So she blamed "Beatrice" for hiding them from her. The Beatrice she imagined looked like and had the same powers as Gaap. Gaap-Beatrice was her very first friend.

Later on, when Yasu decided she wanted to be a witch, she created Claire and gave her the role of Beatrice, displacing Gaap-Beatrice. (She told Gaap she would give her a new name) She also created Claire to look like the opposite of how she had imagined Gaap. She wanted her to look beautiful and dignified. She kept the idea that Beatrice was afraid of spiderwebs and gave her a weakness for mirrors too, because Yasu hated the sight of her own reflection.

Later on, after she fell in love with Battler and had her heart crushed in the letter scene, Yasu reworked Beatrice to fit Battler's ideal woman, with blonde hair and blue eyes. Beatrice then took Shannon's love for Battler and created Kanon to help her cope and move on. This was the creation of suit-Beatrice. (This is the Beatrice that played with Maria. Maria gave Beatrice's characters their names, like Gaap and Ronove, and in exchange, Beatrice drew Maria's characters for her, like the Siestas.)

Beatrice reached her last stage when the portrait went up. Since she now had a model for how Beatrice was supposed to look, Yasu took that and applied it.

Battler's sin was making light promises that he forgot easily. It wasn't that he didn't come back on a horse for Shannon. It wasn't breaking the promise. It was completely forgetting about Shannon for three years, to the point where he didn't even write her a letter when everyone else got one.

Shannon admits that it's not his fault, and that she can't blame him. She just says it hurts because she put stock into the promise and her feelings deepened for him while she waited, while his faded. They both started in a mutual stage, they just went in the opposite direction through the years.

Looks like almost everything is solved. EP8 will be just giving us back stories, deeper motives and the final ending.

Umineko was a fun ride, but I must say the main story and concept suck. All episodes are 90% fiction with no significance at all. All they do for the true story is give us some ShKanontrice hints and explain the Ushiromiya's situation before the typhoon covers Rokkenjima. Everything after that never happened. All the emotions and struggle to survive/save others is just fiction. Fiction inside fiction actually.

I feel a bit betrayed because that means all the riddles and closed rooms are meaningless. Just like all the character development.

Is there something special about seat order?

Yasu is the culprit of the mystery presented in episode 1-4.
But he isn't the culprit of the real murders.

So it depends on what you consider the culprit and what you consider important.
The real murders had no closed rooms, no twilights, just an unfortunate accident and shit hitting the fan in one big clusterfuck.
There is no mastermind, just crazyness.

But what the readers tried to solve, which are the mysteries presented in the fictions that are episode 1 to 4, definitely have a mastermind and a singular culprit.

We know by the red that no one died until Erika ran around to the crime scenes and beheaded them.

Isn't that pretty much explicitly coming right out and saying "hey they were faking closed room murders for some reason, and Battler's in on it!" Which, for whatever reason, is vastly different than the FT of games 1-4 which were presumably sibling murderers?

Question: people keep saying it's unclear whether or not Leon is male or female, but isn't it logical to think that Leon would be male?

If I'm understanding right, Leon is what the baby of 19 years ago would be had Natsuhi kept it. And in Ep5, she is contacted by a man claiming to be the baby from that time. She started to believe it really was that child, but wouldn't she have disregarded it if it had been a female, then? I mean, even if it was only a couple of days, she would have known the child's gender...

So since the one who contacted Natsuhi was male, shouldn't that mean that Leon would be male, too? I'm probably missing something here, since this doesn't seem so small as to be overlooked for these past couple of days...

>> No.5953810

No. It is explained right out that there is no GM because this is the truth.

What happens is that Leon keeps begging Bern to stop the horrible scenes because he still assumes Bern is the game master. Bern simply enjoys trolling Leon and Ange by prodding them to guess what it could mean if she's not GM before it is revealed.

Meta world is fiction. However, in that fiction, there were multiple worlds.

Ange was magically watching past events, so, those characters were in that meta/fiction level where magic and multiple worlds exist.

Yet, It was never confirmed that the world that they watched there was the worlds from where Ange came from, even though, in that level of fiction, the existence of multiple worlds isn't debatable. Yet, they never confirmed that the world that they were watching was actually Ange's world, they just said that it was "the truth".

The whole thing is fiction you dolt. But that's the point. It's a detective novel. A mystery. A mystery novel is a game, a challenge between the author and the reader to see who can solve it first. The moment you hit the first word is the moment the game begins. It's not a mystery novel if it's unsolvable until the end. It's always been a game between the Author and the Reader. That's what the heart of it has always been.

The way you talk about it, it's almost like you're reading a thriller novel, disregarding everything that happened prior as if it was a ghost story used to introduce you to the thriller portion.

This was explained, though indirectly.

First of all, it's emphasized repeatedly that the servants have a very high turnover rate. Leon has trouble even keeping their names straight. So, basically, the people that live in the house don't really pay attention to individual Fukuin servants, except for Shannon because she's so unusual due to her age.

Genji and Kumasawa, on the other hand, know everything about Yasu's past, and have reason to go along with what she does, especially since there's only a year at most between Kanon being created and her finding the gold.

So it's a combination of people not caring and people having a reason to hide them.

I'm still convinced that while Beatrice does cover up what really happens, the actual culprit is different in every episode. Ep 4 culprit was Kyrie/Rudolph, and we got Ange/Eva surviving like Ep7 shows us.
But then again, they say that pretty much every parent had their motives and was capable enough to become killers. So what if what Battler sees in Ep3 is actually truth, and possibly Rosa or Krauss killed everyone in EP1-2?
The point is that the whole Ushiromiya family is a fucking trainwreck, so it doesn't make sense for "innocent" and "guilty" people to exist. BEatrice is cover up that reality for Battler.

>> No.5954096

>>5954036
Except Kyrie and Rudolf couldn't have killed anyone in episode 1 without another accomplice. And even if they did have another accomplice, it's still highly unlikely. Here's why:

We know with 100% certainty that 5 people were present in the Shed after the first twilight: Gohda, Rosa, Krauss, Rudolf and Kyrie. We know from the red text in episode 4, that the "bodies" present in the shed had their identities confirmed. So regardless of their life or death status, Gohda, Rosa, Krauss, Rudolf and Kyrie were in the shed after the first twilight, and those were the 5 people who Battler saw. We also know that Battler's point of view is always reliable in episode 1. Now, lets say that all 5 are alive in the shed, or at least Kyrie and Rudolf are. Either way, it won't matter, because after the surviving family members view the bodies and close the shed door; they lock it from the outside. Battler sees George lock the shed, and unless I'm mistaken, the text even confirms that he hears it lock. The shed becomes a locked room, meaning that all 5 persons in the shed have no way to leave the shed without the intervention of someone from the outside. It is impossible for Rudolf or Kyrie to have committed the murders of the second twilight without someone sneaking out to the shed to open it.

I think people are a little fast to write off the meta-world in as fiction the same way as the episodes, honestly. Meta is a space for the personification of concepts, and there's deliberate ambiguity in the "is Hachijo Featherine or is Featherine Hachijo" question.

I'm also hoping, perhaps futilely, that Will's dogged insistence on fighting for a happy end during his last stand might be honored and not just another tragic gutpunch about he and Leon.

Beatrice the older was basically Beatrice with everything but love for Battler. Younger Beatrice was just love for Battler. They were mixed differently in reality, but the end result is Beatrice as we know and love her.

Yasu is her own person. Clumsy both physically and in making friends, naive, imaginative, and loves mystery novels.

I don't understand why everyone is arguing about what "really happened".

Four different fucking stories "really happened" in four different fucking universes. This is the truth of Ange's world. Our Ange was born from the future of EP3. This is the truth of EP3. It's not that hard.

This doesn't mean that the other three realities were pointless - because that would make THE ENTIRE STORY pointless. Why does everyone only care about the truth of one episode? There is a true culprit, and it's (very likely) not Kyrie.

No, this episode outright says that the terms Kakera, stories, and games are interchangeable. They're all fiction. What Ange was shown was the truth of Rokkenjima, what actually happened. Not on the gameboard, but in reality.

Oh boy another retard.

Umineko =/= Higurashi

In Umineko every EP so far is pure fiction made up to hide the truth.There are no different universes.
There is only one reality and one truth(what really happened on Rokkenjima).
We are going to see this in EP8.
Every fiction have hints and clues,though.

In Higurashi you had co existing dimensions, and every one of them was real.
