Battler said something about his role of being a gamemaster in EP6. I'll quote " My role isn't to carry out serial murders. It's to use that process to show you closed rooms that are impossible without magic, and thereby achieve victory for the witch side."

To say nothing of Eva being chosen because she's the survivor. That's sort of out of Beatrice's hands.

I'm glad to see you guys finally getting into the idea the Meta-Characters are there to count as representation of things.
Anyhow, I've been drowning in my work for a while, is there any word from WH if they're planning on working on Higanbana?

And if you're going to say that the anime is wrong then I would argue that if it is then 11:15 is later than it should be: There was very little time spent examining Krauss and Natsuhi before Eva ran off to find George and accidentally shoot and blind Jessica; it would mean that Battler was alone with Eva for 4-5 hours before she shot him. Also, in Turn the clock strikes midnight during Beatrice's celebration. At this point Battler is already being dragged around naked in front of a bunch of goats as Beatrice's "furniture". |

Well, Battler's logic has to be faulty because of narrative necessity (if he was right about everything, it'd be a pretty short story). I don't think Beatrice anticipated many of Battler's best moments (small bombs), as she seemed genuinely surprised by his... ingenuity... at times. And genuinely disappointed by his failures.

It does, that's the point of what happened to him after the game had ended. Just because he gave up before doesn't mean anything, the game continues and what he sees is still objective until the end of the game. After that, then all kinds of crap can happen.

Erika never relinquished her Detective Authority in EP6 because she never actually had it, only the option to take it (which was later invalidated). In fact, EP6 implies that she can't relinquish it once she's taken it, else it would not have interfered with her plan to become the culprit. |

Incidentally, it also makes no sense if Shannon/Kanon is the culprit using a red trick to avoid death declarations. Why would Eva admit to being the culprit if she isn't? Even if she felt she needed to shoot Battler, why play along? Surely she can't still think it's all a game...
