Totally agree. If you watched code geass, that isnt a mystery, you will notice the creators took half a year to produce the last 2 episodes. The reason was towards the end, they decided they didnt want a run of the mill 'make love not war kiss n hugs' ending. However once they unleashed hell, they didnt know how to solve it hence after hell was unleashed it was half year or more before they came up with the last 2 episodes. Which isn't much of a happy ending but at least they tried. Then they did a brilliant job with s2 with a bittersweet ending. See that really shows what sherringford said about pros n novices. The pros regardless of their ability will put up a fight, and perhaps later when they finally found a better way they present a brilliant continuation. Umineko is a bloody joke. The overall backstory is brilliant i admit n the metaphorically witches virgillia ronove also makes perfect sense with the backstory. However u cant sell a nonsensical main story with only brilliant backstory. Even a poor main story with a brilliant backstory is many times better than a nonsensical mainstory.
