Umineko no Naku Koro ni - Episode 26 Discussion / Poll

[tcaz2]

It never ceases to amaze me how bad DEEN is.

5/10 on the episode and I'm being generous. None of the emotion was there at all. They screwed up some of the parts entirely. It was just awful.

Protip DEEN: Keeping things in content wise doesn't mean you appease fans if those scenes SUCK.

Full series review coming later.

EDIT, TsundereCake wins.

They also had a remix of mortal stampede in the OST (and a good one in my opinion) but didn't use it either.

Ange's scene also had no red and the music choice was..fairly lackluster. I didn't like dir in that scene during the game but even that was better than the music choice this time around.

It means that Deen will forget completely, which will drive viewers violently insane. Of course, that's just a theory...

Ok, let's call this episode ''How to kill the feeling of every fucking scene in the episode''

Spoiler for review:

There are not gonna be any knid words for this episode, though I usually rate them good and always say something good about them, I'll concede: good animations and good music choice/END
Like I've said, these epsiode has no feeling at all, it was so rushed you didn't ahve time to feel anything, nor sadness, nor joy, nothing at all
After watching it I had to go to the fanmade in youtube just to clean the aftertaste
Red vs Blue, did the red part existed at all?
Lambda's red, the same as above
Trolfaces and Bern and Lambda's characterization, ''we already put yuri inciting scenes, we can't handle everything''
Ange's remains just magically disappeared
The misteries were just too easy, no mention to Kanon's both misteries in ep1 and 2, why should they eitherway, right?
It was plain bad and disappointing
No hug, this I CAN'T forgive, just cut the damned ending and add something more to Beato's part and the ??? party
Beato's read in the Golden land with Maria? I think this episode had like 3 reds in it, not even Ange's red was there

I'm leaving to many things because I'm raging a lot right now, sorry for the messy style but I put them as soon as I remember, not even dragon kinzo and small bombs can save this. I'm not too sure, but this gets around 2 and 3 just because thx for being born is my favourite short song

I'll just pretend the umineko anime it didn't exist, and I hope there isn't a Chiru adaptation, really

[~Ayane~]

gosh im so sad and i didnt even watch it yet T_T

[luckyssol]

Very little red text was used but most of the important clues were kept.

+They kept small bombs
+Kinzo's dragon looked cool
+Beatrice's final moments were ok, but Beatrice was supposed to hug Battler

-Ange's death scene lacked impact
-The BGM was not used properly, some parts had no BGM at all.

I'll give this episode a 10, everything I wanted to see was shown.

[Maruko-Kun]

I saw the RAW and ... I liked very much the episode, really. Maybe you're saying I'm crazy, but I really like it.

Spoiler for Episode pros & cons:

PROs
+ No Opening...
+ ????? after the ED
+ BGM in some scene, like when Beatrice leaves her body...
+ Emotion, Emotion, Emotion...
+ Other thing that I don't rimember now...

CONs

- Lack of emotion in some scene, like the Final Showdown between Beato and Batora... just a bit.
- BGM in that scene... T___T I wanted dreamendischarger....

I give it... 9/10.

Could've done this a lot better if I had photoshop on this computer

I'm glad I ain't the only one who doesn't rage over this episode. I acutally quite liked it. WHile I don't know how to rate it.

[Westlo]

I think this episode had some emotion but its definitely not as emotion as the VN version was, I also think they did a decent job with the time they had, the problem being is that DEEN fucked themselves over by not using the time in episode 25 as they should have. The part before the eyecatch should've been the end of episode 25 and the extra time would've helped fix many of the issues in this episode. Aside from things like no dir and dreamend.

I don't know if I even want to see Chiru adapted.. aside from them leaving Promise out for some generic bgm they have a problem of each VN getting longer (is the 5th longer than the 4 btw?) than the previous one. If that's the case than 4 Chiru VNs put into 26 episodes will be more of a disaster than this series. Maybe if the 7th VN was the final one...

[Ttak]

No dreamenddischarger. Looks like the budget for this episode got so low they couldn't animate the red truth, but only used its sound...

[Kitsu]

(is the 5th longer than the 4 btw?)

Nope, it's shorter. I think about the lenght of the third and a bit longer but I'm not sure

Looks like the budget for this episode got so low they couldn't animate the red truth, but only used its sound...

So it wasn't just me, huh? It was actally the only thing that I disliked about this episode. Something in my still hopes for the trtuh to animted in DVD version. Ah I'm such a optimist ain't I? Well without love you cannot see the truth, was it?

[Joneleth]

Didn't they forget to kill Piece-Maria? :P
