[Anime] Umineko - Spoilers & Expectations (for experienced VN readers only)

[Christen]

By the way, Episode 5 is "Umineko no Naku Koro ni Chiru". So by semantics, Game Episode 5 discussion is not allowed in here. Episode 5 is not going to be shown in at least 2 years.

[Jan-Poo]

Exactly, since this is a thread meant for the anime adaption of the first 4 arcs.

If you talking about the anime's episode 5 and are just confused in general then there isn't an easy way to explain things.

If you've read or watched all of Higurashi no naku koro ni (kai and rei too) then this blog entry might help clear up some confusion:

If you haven't read or watched Higurashi then I recommend reading the TIPS thread up to the episode 5 part:

Feel free to ask any specific question.

The episode went a bit farther than Hideyoshi's death.

Seemed it stopped after Virgilia explaining to Beatrice what it means to be a true witch.

Do you have the 2ch link yet?

After this there are two episodes left. It seems there is enough time to fit everything in.

Are you sure it's the discussion about being a true witch? I thought it was the North Sun and Wind discussion.

[MarthX]

Unless they moved that discussion, which would be dumb, it shouldn't be.

The North Wind and Sun talk is before the second twilight.

[Jan-Poo]

they say so in that thread 北風と太陽, it seems like they moved that discussion at the end of this episode.

[Marion]

Only went a little bit through the 2chan pics, since I rather not spoil myself too hard (okay I already know what happens, but you get what I mean) but it looks good from what I saw.

Moving it closer to the troll reveal is going to hurt the impact.

[Marion]

Also, god beato looks so damn moe ;___;

stop it beato


stop it.



i know you're gonna troll me so st-

Spoiler for epsiode III-V pic:

FFFFFFFF X(!!!

[Jan-Poo]

Yeah I think so as well, but then why that guy wrote that right next one of the latest pics with beato and Virgilia?


BTW it appears they have changed the greek text of the bunnies' firing sequence. There's more stuff than there should be and it looks like there are other writing systems included. Unfortunately the quality is bad, I can't read it clealry

Anyway we have a second bitchslap! I love this one!

Third (Maria)

Spoiler for bitchslap ep 16:

I know people are getting killed but I don't like all the hitting women scenes, even if they were in the VN.

[Marion]

In their defense (or not) they deserved it (okay Maria didn't but the other two did )

[momobunny]

Especially Eva-Beatrice, this scene very well may make Hideyoshi become one of my favorite characters!! 8D

My point is they are choosing to remove a lot of scenes yet they're keeping all the slap scenes.
Kids will watch and see someone die and think it's just like a video game.
But I think those kind of scenes actually do promote violence.

[MarthX]

If someone is being a crazy bitch, slap 'em.
