So /jp/, any news on what 07th Expansion is doing next, now that Umineko is finished?

General speculation welcome as well, ofcourse.

>> No.6844539

Imploding, I hope.

>> No.6844543

A lot more horrible shit, but probably less popular than this train wreck.

>> No.6844544

I'd like something with more of the feeling Higurashi had. And no silly magic. Please.

But murders and torture and freaky scenes gallore, I hope.

>> No.6844552

Umineko was one big mistake after episode 1. Let's hope he'll never fuck with magic scenes and things that need love to be seen again and let him go back to eerie, unsettling scenes and more memorable characters.

MORE BLOOD AND GORE

OP here, so no actual confirmed news or realistic rumours yet, then?

How much time was there between the last Higurashi novel and the first Umineko novel?

>> No.6844568

>>6844566
One year

>> No.6844575

I think there was the Higurashi fan disc released in December 2006 and then Umineko came out the following comike.

I hope he won't be able write anything anymore now that BT is dead and Umineko is finished.

>> No.6844587

So it's safe to say we can expect a new title in about a year?

I'm okay with this.

Higurashi wasn't bad, he's certainly capable of writing...it's just that Umineko went horribly downhill.

Also, when you compare Higurashi's sprites with Umineko's sprites, the next project will be even BETTERbutstillhorrible

Thank you.

So he's sticking with this witches malarky? I certainly hope not, I have no desire to see the likes of Lamb or Bern ever again.

Maybe he'll put in some cameos from Umineko like he put Higurashi cameos in Umineko. A loli Kyrie and a shota Gohda. Hmmmm...

Umineko Kei: Erika solves a mystery at the beach.

>> No.6844676

>>6844608

Do you think he ran out of animals that could realistically be described as crying? I was hoping for some great future installments such as:
When Owls Cry (A Story taking place in the far North of Canada involving a team of rare owl trackers)
When Crustaceans Cry (Deadliest Catch, with magic)
When Whippoorwills Cry (A Cthulhu variation)
Along with many many more...

Umineko plot twist was that it was actually "when readers cry"

Typical Higurashifag.

>> No.6844785

There's actually a lot more blood and gore in Umineko than in Higurashi.

>> No.6844792

First off, Umineko isn't over.

There is still to be at least one Umineko Rei, he said it before the release of EP8. There were 3 Higurashi Reis, so yeah.

>> No.6844793

>>6844785
But Uminekofags don't care about that. Higurashi's anime forgot the mystery, it's just goreshit. That's why there is a lot of fags who likes Higurashi just for the blood.

>> No.6844799

>>6844792
I thought Tsubasa was the Umineko's rei. Seriously, there isn't much more to say about Umineko.

>> No.6844800

>>6844792
He stated that he will do a pause before writing anything else.
No rei has been confirmed, he probably won't release anything for the next Comiket.

>> No.6844809

>>6844800

>No rei has been confirmed

At the very least, I remember his blog saying right before EP8's released, "Now that I've finished EP8, I'd really like to start working on Umineko Rei as fast as I can".

I guess he reneged on that?

>> No.6844816

>>6844792
He said he "wanted to write Rei", just that, but that was before seeing how his last episode was received (50/100 points average now on the most authoritative site). Honestly, it's anything but confirmed he'll do it.

>> No.6844821

>>6844816
I think he doesn't give a fuck about such trifles.

>> No.6844823

I'm not sure if i want a Rei. I prefer him to focus on something new. I haven't read EP8, but i think EP8+Tsubasa is enough.

Yeah, because Umineko characters aren't memorable.

EP1 was a big mistake.

Fantasy lovers wouldn't give Umineko a chance because EP1 felt like some realistic boring mystery shit.
Diehard mysteryfags wouldn't drop Umineko because they keep believing that they will get another episode like EP1, and only complain when the new episodes aren't what they wished for.

The next work of 07th expansion will have:

-A new alternative form of Bern and Lambda (Or Rika and Takano).

-More gore.

-A brainwasher story.

Do you hate Shion for being a psychopathic torturer? Or Keiichi for introducing girls to his baseball bat?

Does Japan go "the fuck was that?" in reaction to Umineko like we do?

>> No.6844930

>>6844879
Umineko's ending will be nowhere NEAR as bad as 4chan proclaims it once people actually read it.

The same as with every episode released thus far. You'll have the diehard trolls proclaiming it terrible no matter what, while the people who actually read the thing will enjoy it.

You do realize how delusional you are, right?
"If they talk bad about it, they're trolls. If they praise it, they are the true(TM) fans who actually cared about the episode/umineko/ryukishi07" "but even some of the native people didn't like it, it's not a matter of waiting for translation" "they never liked it anwyays" (I guess that's why they read 8 episodes of it).
Far from me saying episode 8 was the horrible shit some people say it is (mainly people going by spoilers), but saying I'm a troll for criticizing it is as bad as saying it's shit no matter what.
