Where was it confirmed that there is a shipwrecked character?

2.) The witch has several roses on her hat, and a red rose pattern on her pantyhose.

3.) Her dress is pink and white - which are the exact same colors as the candy wrapper George used to mark the rose.

4.) As stated before, the "Bara" part of Umineko no Naku Koro ni Bara can have several meanings, one of them being "rose".
Even better, the color of the sick rose itself in the anime is pink. In the novel the color of the rose has never been stated.

I don't know if that's important in any way, but it the identity of Pendragon kinda bugs me since Ep 4. So yeah, has anyone an idea regarding that?
The Siestas are called "Pendragon's memorial troops". The animal orchestra was given to Maria from Rosa as a gift after she came back from a travel. memorial... souvenir... the concept is quite similar... but that of course would mean that Pendragon is Rosa ^^;

Thehe, our lovely Rosa is not only a Black Witch but also a dragon? %D

I still highly doubt that the new girl is a Beatrice, like the Beatrices we knew before. Only because she has no family crest. Heh, yeah, kinda nitpicking here.
Anyway. She could be some new kind of witch and putting an end to the succession of the Golden Witches. So to say, having no Endless Magic, and that she doesn't inherit the title of the Golden Witch by a former one. Which would explain the title and her portrait (violently taking the place of someone else).

Spoiler for Theory:
I think that the big problem with this is that it means that it's impossible to deny the witch if in the very game they play, the game they're playing in Purgatorio is referenced. Nobody in game is supposed to actually know about that place (in terms of the game) or that they're part of a game, or else there's no way to arrive at a purely anti-fantasy conclusion.


As for the Siestas and Pendragon, maybe that's the name of the manufacturer?

To get a purely anti-fantasy ending the game shouldn't even exist

but technically "the end" becomes "JI ENDO" while "the land" becomes "ZA RANDO"

they are quite different from a japanese perspective

Spoiler for Theory:

While I applaude you for this very creative and fresh idea, there is one major problem: With your interpretation, the epitaph would only be solvable from a Meta-POV, since it references the repeating events. However, this would make it impossible for any of the "pieces" on the board to solve it, which Eva managed in Episode 3. So unless she somehow had insight of the whole meta-duel between Battler and Beato, she shouldn't have been able to do it.

I know, but I am more fond of the idea that the candy wrapper becomes the clothing of the personified rose, hence the color similarities.

The thing is that if it isn't him in the incinerator, but he's already dead, you have to figure out why Kinzo is dead AND his death is faked.

It's a lot easier to just combine the two events.
