Also, DEEN has never been a studio that goes with a really artistic type of presentation, their style of scene-transitions and scene build up always seemed more simplistic in style to me. They are doing a good job...they are maybe not the best studio out there, but one of the few which can almost guarantee a run of more than 13 episodes. Also, if you say the worst in the year, what are you comparing it to? Well, I don't want to imply that it is not okay to criticize Umineko for it's faults, but I think many of the avid followers of the VN are a bit too worked up about minor flaws that happen in every anime production, especially within a recesion.

Yeah. The fact is, I watched episode 1 before I started playing the game. I knew certain things about the plot, and I knew Higurashi pretty well (mostly the anime, but I have played a bit of the VN) but essentially I didn't have any experience with Umineko. And I loved the first episode. Now that I've played the VN, I can see what they left out and elided over, but despite the fact that it was rushed, I felt that episode 1 was pretty well constructed and paced, and that they managed to tone down some of the slow, boring bits and end it on a note which hinted at what was to come. I actually watched episode 1 about three times because I loved it so much. Now, I have a little more criticism for episode 2 and 3, though I thought 3 was handled pretty well.
And I know I wasn't the only one. So I think DEEN is doing a passable job, balancing between VN readers and noobs, and trying to both compress the story and still make it work, and there have been a few missteps, but nothing deadly. |

lol Maria's like summoning Washizu from Akagi. And Shion as well as Rena.
But anyhow, the suspense is definitely growing here. It's been a while since I've seen something that leaves me wondering what the heck is going on. In a good way that makes one think. Too many suspense shows and movies are very lame and brain dead usually featuring ass pull twists. We'll just have to see. Do you believe in the witch? 8/10 |

Very much agreed. Well, except the worst of year part, there is a lot of crap in the anime industry these days. Quote:

Ryuukishi does not need to describe the end of the question arcs, they just need to play the game :P
The problem for Umineko is that it starts with very detailed description about relationship and everything. So it is very hard to adapt those scenes. For me, Umineko hasn't start yet.

I never considered it started until Episode 2 starts.
About thecheap animation I hope they are saving up some money now, because this arc does not really need anythign impressive, but the next arcs sure can use that extra money. Quote:

In general I liked the umineko characters much more than the higurashi ones, as well, ever since I read the first chapter of the manga (and I tought I was going to dislike them because of the designs I saw at wiki, lol). |

What is hilarious its that no one don't ask questions about Maria . Like "What is this sick face she did" or "how can she know about this" etc ... and she didn't seem shocked for his mother dead !
But i still like her XD |
