It was really not necessary and you know it. Everything was solvable after EP4, plus there is no evidence that Battler actually used EP5 to reach his solution. EP5 just provided him the knox rules.
Agatha Christie doesn't figures in her stories. Also you are misinterpreting a bit of stuff. What EP5 "makes big thing about" is the trust among author and reader. You don't really need to understand the author's heart to solve a mystery.

I didn't read this thread while ep7 wasn't translated and couldn't find the answer to my question: what about the final riddle of ep6? It's not like Shkannontrice theory was able to solve this one even before ep7. And still I don't see any fitting answer for this one, even after ep7.
Oh and also I didn't really understand the Ep2 T1 part in Clair vs Will confrontation. What's the deal with the gold truth and illusions about this one? And yeah, they didn't even mention Natsuhi's death from ep1. Weird. |

it was necessary for him. Because he's incompetent. I also think there are a few scenes he needed to get his solution. Not just Knox rules. It depends on your interpretation. Episode 5 for example would be needed to be certain about the fake first twilight. At the least anyway. It's true that you can come to that conclusion before it, but I don't beleive there's any proof that Battler believed that before then.

Not sure if this was mentioned, but Ryuukishi posted another diary entry.
He didn't say anything for sure, but it sounds like he's far from finished as a writer with EP8. Apparently, he does want to make a 'Rei' for Umineko and is looking forward to writing a new work sometime in the future. No word about when he hopes to do any of this though.

At any rate I find the idea that he completely failed after 4 episodes mastered by Beatrice only to finally understand everything because of a completely loveless game laughable at best.

I think if we take the Closed Room Lecture from the Hollow Man / The Three Coffins, then there really can't be a closed room murder for reals. It all has to be a trick of some kind.
Basically, a closed room murder isn't a closed room or isn't a murder. 8) There's no way but to be cheap. Although Umineko did do some interesting things; i.e. someone else coming in, taking the place of someone inside and restoring the closed room. That was kinda neat... |
