Of course only in personal view, but the satellite view brings you only so close most of the time, that it doesn't actually give you a really informative view anyway.

You would probably find an island in 2005 using Google Earth, but you'd have no way to prove what stood where and what could have happened there without closer investigation.
I thought the issue was just confirming the very existence of the island, not what's inside it.
Beside, if there's really a 1km wide crater it should be quite visible from above, and I think that'd be pretty significative.

As for going all the trouble to make google earth blur Rokkenjima, who exactly would bother do that several years after the incident and why?

It's again, a bit too convenient.
It's not to suit my "need" it's part of my theories regarding the narrative system in Umineko. I "redefined" the interpretation of the gameboards back at the time of EP5 when the author theory still wasn't accepted. I don't tnink there's anything wrong with that, it's just the way I see it.

What's so different?
I never considered that a magic scene... and that's the first time I hear anyone considering it as such...

However if you aren't, well maybe that's why.
It's not a habit of mine to interpret things the way I "like" them, just the way I think it's more rational and consistent with the informations I possess.
