Anyway, just saw the latest ep. of Umineko, I watch 'em later since I've already played the SN. Though I'm still on Alliance since I've been busy. & the games become longer with each arc. Almost done with it though.

How far are you in Banquet?DawnBandit wrote:I'll probably start next episode for the animated Virgilia/Beatrice beambattle, then keep going, since Rudolf and Kyrie's fights against the Stakes are soon after.
Also, Beato may be , but Eva-Beatrice is just D:<.

Rudolf, Kyrie, and Hideyoshi were killed by the Siestas, and Beatrice was struck down to "Apprentice" by Battler. So, Sixth Twilight.All_Hail_Otakudom wrote:How far are you in Banquet?DawnBandit wrote:I'll probably start next episode for the animated Virgilia/Beatrice beambattle, then keep going, since Rudolf and Kyrie's fights against the Stakes are soon after.

Scratch that, Ninth Twilight. Beato revived Shannon with George's help, but the lovers were struck down by the Siestas. Virgilia sacrificed herself to let Beato escape.
It's really interesting to see the shift from murder mystery, to game of logic, to beambattles and overt magic.

And for those of us still only involved in the anime, episode 13 was beam-saber-licious. And also a steaming pile of WTF.
Uuuu~

Trust me, Episode 14 will be far better than Kanon vs. The Stakes. It depends on how well they animate it, but in the novels it was far better.Peregrin wrote:And for those of us still only involved in the anime, episode 13 was beam-saber-licious. And also a steaming pile of WTF.

Question, does the Virgilia/Beatrice the Predecessor/Beatrice the Predecessor the Predecessor/That Gray Haired Chick/Kumasawa open her eyes in the anime or not? Because she has Brock Eye Syndrome in the games.

IF DEEN doesn't screw it up that is. I have some hope left for them, this arc seems to be doing good so far, although I would've like the Gohda scene to last a little longer.DawnBandit wrote:Trust me, Episode 14 will be far better than Kanon vs. The Stakes.Peregrin wrote:And for those of us still only involved in the anime, episode 13 was beam-saber-licious.

Noooo~ BEATOOOO~
DON'T YOU DARE HEROIC SACRIFICE ON ME!
Question: Does anybody know the full words at the beginning of Melting Away? "Here are special people (?) from the standpoint that I knew I how to see why ??? the invisible" is what I can make out.
OH GOD THAT ENDLESS NINE MOMENT WAS AMAZING
In fact, every time Battler does his flawless explanations and counterarguments, it's freaking amazing. Him being pushed back to the corner, and pulling out the Umms and Uhhs, not so much.
Somehow, these endings keep getting better and better! I thought, I really thought that Beato had reformed! And that Virgilia was just helping Beato out of respect for their old relationship, to make the game more fair... Oh, man, that was a twist...
I take back what I said about Lambda. She's clearly more yan than tsun.
--- ALLIANCE OF THE GOLDEN WITCH ---
ENTER AMAKUZA F***ING JUUZA. Badass from the start.
Anyways, I was getting a little tired of Ange and Maria's back-bawwwing. For some reason, they try and make Maria a really sympathetic character, but I just... can't bring myself to actually care. Maybe it's the psycho tantrum of "cannot forgive!" when she turns all Eva-Beatrice and repeatedly tortures Rosa. Poor Rosa, gets the short end of the stick.
But hey, George and Jessica kicking ass! And Kanon kicking ass, and Shannon kicking ass! But... why the heck are the Siestas and Virgilia, previously instruments of instant death and the best backstabbing psycholady I've seen yet, now being treated as comedy elements? I mean, come on, Virgilia biting her tongue and arguing with Gaap (Gapgapgapgap!) is just... odd. Heck, when she starts meta-meta-gaming, mentioning "Episode 24", it's even weirder! And just what IS that bingbong noise?
But 45 being useless is ADORABLE.
God, this entire segment with Krauss, the Goat, and Virgilia in the tunnels is hilarious... A series of nonsense, flashbacks, nerd references, and power levels.
... And then the fight scene ends with yet another O LOL turnabout. Just... argh.

Yes, it definitely is.Peregrin wrote:So... is this series worth the terrible art style so far? Should I allow it to devour my time?
I just finished Alliance of the Golden Witch. Annoyingly alternates incredibly strong moments with confusing and boring (sans perhaps one) Ange sections, as well as a large chunk of Maria backstory with MARIA (the Witch of Origins) that never gets particularly resolved. The dual identity problem (like with Eva and EVA) still exists with MARIA and Maria, but less so with ANGE and Ange, although it plays a key part with her later. In short, starts slow, but ends well. The amount of time it took to get to the first murder, between the Maria flashbacks and the Ange flashbacks, was lame, though.
Like Episode 3, Episode 4 doesn't end with the end of the 'game'. Instead, it finishes with the Tea Party, and ambiguously at that. Again, like Episode 3, it sets it up very well for a sequel, rather than the LOLWUT of 1 and 2. The ???? raises some very, very interesting questions indeed.
Can't wait for End of the Golden Witch. I keep being taunted by everybody who speaks moonrunes... Gonna follow the rest of the anime ftlulz.

Despite the appearance it's a good read. Isn't storytelling all that matters, besides Ryuukishi's art improved a good amount since the original Higurashi SNs. Look
From this:
To this:
They actually have noses in Umineko.
