Hello, I'm a lurker who's finally working up the courage to theorize with you guys!
In Episode 5 we are told flat out that we have enough information to solve the Epitaph, so I thought I'd take a crack at it. I hope this isn't the wrong thread? Anyway, my theory is that the river in the puzzle is actually a train line! I thought of this theory since I was recently in Japan and noticed that there actually used to be a station named Ayukawa in Ibaraki (see here for a Japanese Wiki article). The train line might even be the Shinkansen, since it was running already in 1983 (which is when Kinzo made the puzzle IIRC). Spoiler for Spoiler for Episode 5:
Does this make sense or has it been raised and dismissed already? ^^; |

Well I posted it in Ep4 threat, but just in case^^
Concerning Ep2: I will summarise the red truth of the First Twilight: Spoiler for Chapel Murder:
I think that we can throw away the scene in the chapel because we can suppose that Beatrice wasn't there in the first place. Personally, I think that: Spoiler for Theories for the Second Game, from the First to the 5th Twilight.:

Hello everyone, I'm another lurker who decided to post his thinking
I have another theory for the second game. Spoiler for Umineko from game 2 to 4:
And that's about it. Just one last thing I would like to confirm on fifth game: Spoiler for 5th game:

Exactly, this is what I think to be the more plausible concerning Battler's death. Quote:

14 at max. Middle school in japan goes from 12 to 14. So she could have been 12 for what we know.
Well... actually I would exclude she was 12. Because Rosa says "about 20 years ago", and Rudolf replied "So when you were a middle schooler". This means that 20 years before (1966) Rosa was already a middle schooler. This means in 1967 she was at least on the second year. Anyway there's a huge age difference between Rosa and Eva, while Eva and Krauss are only 2 years apart. Rudolf however should be 5-10 years younger than Krauss.

Kinzo's wife = 0 info
But the year they moved on the island is "about 30 years before". so 1956ca It is stated that the Rokkenjima mansion was built in 1952, so they might have actually moved there between 1952 and 1956. Also Kawabata in 1998 says that about 50 years before he started transporting goods to the Kuwadorian. This places the date at around 1948 which is even before the Mansion was built, hinting that the kuwadorian might be an even older construction which was there even before Kinzo purchased the whole island.

It must be 1952, because Eva-Beato was a high-schooler, and Eva would be in Highschool in 1952. So....
Eva was 16-17 when they moved to the Island Krauss was 18-19 Rudolf was... 8-13? Rosa was not born yet, or maybe just a newborn. Natsuhi married Krauss when she was 16 I think I read, which was 30 years ago, so she moved onto the Island in 1956 probably.... I think. all these dates are way to confusing for some reason. |

Natsuhi being 16 when she married is a japanese wiki speculation, it was never confirmed. This hypothesis most probably comes from the fact that they tried to shrink as much as possible the age difference between Eva and Rosa (by laws 16 is the minimum required for a woman to marry).
Natsuhi was probably very young, but she's 5 years younger than Krauss, and I doubt Krauss married at 21 considering he had to attend university. My bet is that Natsuhi was 18. Rudolf was confirmed to be still in elementary school when they moved to Rokkenjima, so 6-12 years old. Eva being a high schooler is most probable, Rosa at that time wasn't born or had just been born as you said.
