Erm, something about the dining hall... I think it has something to do with the premise of the murder.

So is this purple text stuff and cake cafe questions and whatnot real or what?

It's consistent. If it's fake, it's a hell of a fake.

[Kirroha]

Eh? Bern and Ange skyscraper again?

Everything dealing with the puzzles, the cake, the purple text, and young-Ange are effectively real. I say 'effectively' because at least two independent readers have been posting images that completely correlate with each other, and perhaps more importantly no other spoilers of any kind (beyond obvious fakes) have appeared. So unless every other Japanese person who has the game is withholding the 'real spoilers' to let these 'fake spoilers' go on, what you see is the real deal.

[AuraTwilight]

....wait.

YOUNG-ANGE IS REAL? WHAT?

[Vylen]

Yea, too elaborate to be a fake it would seem.

And for easy access here.. or something

Spoiler for Ep8, Culprit Rules:

Spoiler for Apparent Translation:

>The definition of "Culprit" is one who murdered.
>There is a possibility that the culprit lied.
>There is also a possibility that the culprit lied before committing the murder.
>The characters that are not the culprit will only speak the truth.
>The characters that are not the culprit will not assist the culprit.
>The culprit commits all the acts of murder by their own hands.
>The culprit will not die.
>The culprit is one of the characters who have appeared so far.
>The Purple Words have the same weigh as the Red Truth. However, only the culprit will lie using the Purple

After Zepar/Furfur, Auau, Young Kinzo, and Claire, are you surprised?

[Kirroha]

Yeah, I guess. A whole bunch of them corroborate. And she looks pretty cute anyway.

[Revelation]

Well since this is a spoiler thread.

Spoiler for EP8!!:

ooooo!

[MeoTwister5]

Holy shit I think the mastermind theories that focused on the mastermind not directly killing people by their own hands just got debunked.

[Renall]

Most of those theories were based on the prior games, though. We don't know if those correlate since the ep8 situation is... weird.

Seems like it. <3

Those really shouldnt have been taken seriously in the first place, though. Given the use of Knox and Dine, more than one culprit is just...unfair as a mystery I guess.

[Kirroha]

Spoiler for What. What. WHAT.:

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[TehChron]

Heh.

Spoiler:

Goat-Kun needs his fanservice too.

[Helmet-kun]

Goat-san, Goat-chan, Goat-sama....

...You know, I'll burst out laughing if there's a spoiler out there hinting a Lion/Will Harem with the goats.

[Dream Illusionist]

I swear. Here I was thinking that creating a purple truth for my fangame was ingenious, and then comes Ryukishi07 and steals the idea. HONESTLY. D<

*SHOT*

On-topic now, this was a turn I did not expect. I mean, I had heard rumors of there being choices on this Episode, but, for us to actually choose the culprit?!... If this is true, then you know stuff's got serious. Young Ange is not so much a surprise, actually, IMO it was already hinted back then that she would make an appearance.

....so yeah. Back to lurking for me. And praying that my theory holds past Ep8.

[Kirroha]

Hmm... It seems like Ange considers her hordes of bullying classmates to be faceless goats.

I don't think it's really choosing the culprit... It's more like the culprit's decided, and you try to solve the mystery and guess it right. The purple helps you.
