Umineko no Naku Koro ni - Episode 19 Discussion / Poll

[Tjfarmer]

I think Maho Momo is just pointing out that the whole cake thing, whether its a lie or not, still isn't that relevant to the discussion of episode 19.

Though that does not excuse the fact he/she did not get the refrence. xD;

Not every convo has to be "serious buisness". I acctually dislike it when things are that way.

It's a joke, people ... the conversation would probably be over by now if we hadn't had to explain it ...

A classic example of not explaining the joke?

That thing took up a whole page.

Who said I didn't get the reference? I can't ever go on a board without seeing "THE CAKE IS A LIE!!". ^^;

And I know that... but it's not usually that irrelevant to the episode at hand...

But June is right, and once again one comment/question leads to a page of back and forth arguments. Let's just end it.

[Shamisen]

It's simply a theory as to Kinzo's existence and a theory for the whole cake scene.
Burnt cake = Burnt Kinzo and Six toes = Kinzo.

Sure it's not necessarily relevant to episode 19 but it's still relevant to Umineko. Just in a joking matter. No need to be so serious about it.

[jeroz]

funny how my hunch back when EP1 was aired got explored........XD
now let's wait to see which universe would R07 present to us.
Kinzo alive or Kinzo dead? (schrodinger's cat analogy re-explored)

I am kind of concerned about the "arrangement" mentioned between Krauss and Natsuhi back at the start of EP2

Spoiler for higurashi:

don't tell me another 34 happens again in this universe, though burning is a good way to hide the time of death. No trap is used to kill, but a mechanism can be use to delay the burning.

Battler has said in bluie Kinzo is dead before the games (before 4th Ocober 00:00 a.m.), just draw your conclusions from there. It can still be false, everyone knows Beatroll, just don't think about it too much

Poll leaves me shocked..

They haven't gone through the VN's or something?

A mix of that, and apologists/pessimists who did play the SN, but don't want DEEN to abandon the franchise so Ryu07 can get a brain and pick a better studio.

[Klashikari]

...I'm more concerned about that kind of comments.
If people enjoy that much this format, it wouldn't be too much a problem for the original VN since it is a general consensus it is better. Actually, it would encourage those who can/want to explore the original material. If it was however not to their liking, it wouldn't be always possible.
By the way, I doubt it was Ryukishi who chose the studio: it is probably a long story of offer and contract, probably even more influenced since Higurashi was adapted by them.

Although you might be unsatisfied by the adaptation as a whole, which is entitled to your opinion, there are also some limits to comments that simply alienate others' opinions. Feel free to be disappointed by the episode, but please do not start to poke on people's rating or whatnot.

[Ithekro]

Conversely, there are very, very few negative votes. Wouldn't that mean maybe there are only a few people who are still watching that don't like it, or are just super critical about the adaptation?

Unlike say the Haruhi threads, where even the people who don't like an episode stay, watch, and vote it down?

Though that might not be a mystery. One is a very popular series that has its fanbase pretty well established and ready for trolling. This series has a smaller fanbase...only some of which is protected from trolling...though of a different kind. Add to this the Higurashi fans that came over just because...yeah...you'll find the trolling to be less in voting. Both for and against.

In the threads though...red and blue shots in the dark. Like a shotgun, isn't it Battler?

So...don't disagree with others opinions/ratings? By that logic the poll is the same thing..

[June 1983]

... you came back after a whole week just to post that? Lame.

[AmyElizzabeth]

Everyone shut up
I will now ask a very obvious question.
Is human Sakutarou still voiced by Minori Chihara?

[Ithekro]

Yes. It is close to her Tsubasa Kawai voice she uses in Kyō no Go no Ni. Another shota.

[AmyElizzabeth]

I keep picturing Yuki Nagato as a stuffed Lion came to life
I love Sakutarou. Will he come in more often?

No, don't POKE on others opinions and ratings. Feel free to disagree with it.
