Spoiler for EP 4:

What's the music that is playing right after the OP in EP 4, when Ronove wakes Beatrice? It's something classical. It's not in the EP 4 soundtrack.

That is "gc-01.ogg", from the Ep1 soundtrack. If I recall correctly, it plays in the beggining of the first tea party.

Quick question:

Spoiler for Observer~Witch Who Lives Soundtrack:

Can anyone provide a rough translation of what's being said in the first track (始まりの詩)? Just a general gist would be fine. Thanks~

I hope they change the ending for this anime halfway, even though It's probably close to impossible for deen. The ending song was perfect for Episodes 1-2, but now I feel it's not really going to match the mood of the story or be relevant to it. I'm just imagining the couple of last episodes of this current arc is definitely going to feel weird with the ending song.

I second this. I'd really like to know what she's saying.

Yes, but it'll be perfect for the end of the arc though.

a question
the umineko essence ost ep.1 is an ost of the game or the anime ?

[TsundereCake]

Why do some people call the lady who sings the MG songs "Shinra Etsuko" while others call her "Niira Etsuko"?

[mizou]

her real name is " Niira Etsuko " and not shinra ( false traduction )

Haven't I corrected myself before? Essence OST is the game's OST, not the anime. Anime OST was confirmed sometime then by Animate to be released around December.

Argh, that feels so far away ;_;

Thanks for the heads up from LJ, I checked animate website again and they... Actually have updated their list. /fails 1000 years

Character Song Volume 2 characters are...

GEORGE AND BEATRICE. (ME: LOLWAT. FAIL FRONTIER WORKS OR DEEN OR WHOEVER IS ORGANIZING THIS.)

Anyway, I already know that George Finally someone notices him! seiyuu Suzuken is pretty much a-okay singer. (Okay, even though he did... Rather... Ahem, "energetic" song in one Drama CD, but that's for LOL purpose anyway.) So yeah, I'm not complaining much. Except wai Beato+George combi? >.>''

Songs title are not confirmed yet for Character CD Volume 2, however the Original (short) Drama is already titled. The title for the drama is: 「ベアトリーチェの恋のマジカル大作戦」, which can translate to "Beatrice's Great Magical Tactics of Love" (SUPER BIG THANKS TO ANONYMOUS LIKE UNDER TOO) And nope, this is not for BeaBato lovers so sad to say (/headdesk), considering the Character (CV) list for the drama is confirmed as Beato's, George's, Shannon's and Maria's.

/me gonna have zzzzz if there is no crack -_-

Tracklist from Character Song CD Vol 1 is fully updated. Both Character songs have been confirmed before (Dokkyun Heart for Jessica and Happy Halloween MARIA for Maria).

The last one is the Original Drama (Labelled as Anthology Drama in the site) which is titled: 「病か呪いか、ネコミミの怪」, translated as "A Disease? A Curse? The Mystery of the Catears" (translation thanks to lovely anonymous in LJ. Full credits to you! If you are an AS member, drop me a message and I'll edit this post so fast 8D Though I did some editing on it as Nekomimi#Catgirl, sorry ^_^'')

As for the seiyuu list for the drama in the Character CD Vol 1:
右代宮戦人：小野大輔
右代宮朱志香：井上麻里奈
右代宮真里亞：堀江由衣、
紗音：釘宮理恵
ベアトリーチェ：大原さやか

Or just put that the characters appearing there are Battler, Jessica, Maria, Shannon and Beatrice.

... I'm so complaining to Frontier Works one of this days >_> Now leave me alone as I try to get import of Nanbara Ken's novels, whatever way possible -__-

OOOOOO~ Sounds interesting Sucks that there's no Battler though

[momobunny]

George and Beatrice? ... the heck? @_@;

[Evy]

Lmfao what

[urusai]

Relax, in this case it's almost certainly the fault of Frontier Works.

I know, I'm just too shocked to see either FW or the merchandise coordinator really didn't think how they should arrange the characters combinations ._. Or the drama scriptwriter is being stingy or more cases.

Although if I have to say something in this, I'm actually thinking that they did a rather good bait for this volume, considering it's SuzuKen and Oohara who sing the character songs for this volume... (Pretty sure SuzuKen has pretty much better fanbase in terms of singing than OnoD *CoughVelvetUnderworldCOUGH*. Oohara is already good enough and arguably the most recognizable CV out of the casts, so maybe they're planning to push the for best here... Except if they mess up the song composition.)

[ameskitty]

Well, I can understand Shannon not being with George, because she's probably going to be with Kanon XD. But...wow. This is kinda strange. I was kind of hoping for a Beatora CD, too .

Maybe they're trying to pair the less popular characters with the more popular characters in an effort to sell more CDs .

...also no Kanon on Jessica's character CD drama? And the drama's about nekomimi? And NEITHER of them on Beatrice's Great Magical Tactics of Love? This is an utter disgrace >: O.

[Kitsu]

They could make George much more popular if they would freaking include him in freaking more promo pics ToT George~ *cries*

Beato&Battler CD would have been nice or maria&Battler but oh well. At least I get Jessi's song ealier that way (i once predicted BAtter&Maria and then George&Jessi)

...also no Kanon on Jessica's character CD drama? And the drama's about nekomimi? And NEITHER of them on Beatrice's Great Magical Tactics of Love? This is an utter disgrace >: O.

Don't give up hope. jessica might be on the suspected Shannon&Kanon CD at least I hope so.

LOLWUT. THAT'S INSANE. xD I figured George would go with Battler

Holy shiz, I can see everyone randomly getting their Image Songs with random people now. (Ronove and Genji. I WANT IT, LOL)
