Well I checked back and I didn't see anyone post it so here is another interesting screenshot from the Ep7 op
Spoiler for another one:
It's another one of those op easter eggs of the scene at the shed in episode 1. Except this one is without Battler and Hideyoshi and just has George. Hmmm.....

And there is not too much that we know about EP7, but the OP is pretty cool and you should YouTube it. Also the portrait has been revealed; you can probably google that pretty easily. Quite frankly, I think we will be able to find a solution (or something very close to one) in the next Episode. Seeing how close we are already, a couple of hints can confirm several of the forum's theories. As for the guys on the portrait, I personally think it's Van Dine and one of his flamboyant male characters, or this "Witch-Hunting Wright" guy or whatever. |

While I agree that the blue guy is most certainly Van Dine, it's confirmed by the screenshots that the shemale character is a 'real-world' character. And, judging by several facts, s/he is definately related to Krauss/Natsuhi/Jessica.
Well, I'm pretty much convinced that this is 'the child from 19 years ago'. |

It'd probably be Featherine's detective piece, since she'll be playing the human side next time (presumably). Wizard Hunting Wright would probably provide support in a similar way to DIanor (only using the Dine rules to murder any romance scenes as well).
My guess is that, if Shkannontrice is true, Bernkastel will show him/ her in an extremely unsympathetic light in episode 7 (possibly pretending to love George and Jessica just so they can get a bit more support for the murder ceremony). They'd probably also be portrayed as a petty idiot for letting the sin fester inside them for years and years (anyone else think Shannon's apparently perfect memory makes her the most likely one to remember what must've been a relatively minor sin 6 years before?). Actually... does it bother anyone else that the end of episode 4 means "Beatrice" pretty much has to be a bomb, while earlier truths means she pretty much has to be a human? |

"Beatrice" is just a concept, the embodyment of the rules of the world, as said by Bernkastel. So there is no problem in a part of "her" being a bomb and another part of "her" being the human that Battler meets.

Beatrice is many things at once.
First of all she is the rule that anything not explained by human means = Beatrice. (Bomb or Volcano or pipeline blowing up fits that as well) Second, she is "something" to many different characters. Basically she exists as a concept, and a concept is what you see it as. It's a bit like "god", everyone tend to have their own "view" on what it is, including the view that it doesn't exist (same for Beatrice again) Third, there has been a serie of people who were called Beatrice, or had something in them being called Beatrice. Apparently never more then one at once, but that can hardly be proven. Finally, if we go back to it's source, which I'm sure Kinzo knows about, Beatrice was to Dante a symbol of eternal inspiration far more then a real person (tho she WAS a real person). Interestingly enough, she married someone else then him. |

I actually suddenly thought the new girl could be Ange. IIRC there was a screenshot of Gohda preparing some porridge for poor, sick Ange. Since no other new character sprites seem to be forthcoming...
She doesn't look much like Ange, but then again, if Ange looked even remotely like her 1998 self in 1986, Battler would've surely recognised her instantly. |

Guess I can't confirm this at all, in fact I'm probably wrong but...
Well the new char's names seems to appear as the same in nearly every japanese website that talks about Umineko arc 7. These names have been out for a bit but there's no way to say if they're right or not. Doesn't mean anything, but anyway... If I'm to trust that... イトミミズ Itomimizu, does that mean anything? (the guy) 絶壁 Zeppeki, Cliff I believe? Sound like Battler's fear of falling. (the girl) Spoiler for Funny new girl pic:
This is pretty funny imo... and feels right! |

The second one gets pictures of a cliff, though, so I think you're right on that one. |
