I'm not ignoring it, it's simply not true. This just your personal interpretation: since it's supernatural it's magic, that might work in a general context but not in Umineko.

Anyway this has absolutely nothing to do with what I was talking about: the choice between "magic" and "trick". That "magic" has absolutely nothing to do with red truths.

While condemning all of the truth seekers is wrong, Erika herself sort of deserves it.
Of course I'm the first to say that Erika is a negative characters. My problem is that she was strongly associated with the search for the truth, which gives the wrong idea that "who searches the truth = Erika", idea that is being reinforced by the fact that the Ange that chooses the truth in the end becomes Erika.
