Well, that's kind of harsh. She is a pretty horrible person, but she doesn't really have much of an opportunity to be anything else given the situation she's in. I have a feeling she'd be much more likable if we could see her as a human before becoming Bern's piece.

But I don't know for certain how accurate it is. It looks slightly sloppy in places, but not incredibly awful. |

So, all hope for Umineko localization is now shattered huh? Eh, even though I knew it was impossible, I still hoped for it to have happened. PSP games were also ignored and I had such high hope they would have been noticed.
Speaking of the PSP games, it seems that Alchemist canceled that project. There is not even a word of news, progress or even confirmation for a cancellation. That's quite irresponsible of them. I've been waiting for the Chiru port for PSP for a while now. Why is this franchise treated so badly, did it do so bad in Japan?

Especially Chiru, when it didn't deliver what consumers expected, sales dropped immensely. |

I don't understand, Chiru is by far the strongest works Ryukishi ever wrote. I just can't grasp how Japanese didn't like it.
Higurashi is being ruined by DEEN every year, with their over-the-top OVAS that absolutely don't make any sense. Do those sell more? Does Rika cleaning a window with her butt appeal to large category of fans? Or that Outbreak. Complete nonsense, it was as if you put Higurashi characters in AMC's "The Walking Dead". It was almost insulting how different it was from the original source. And to think these are being sold more than Umineko... Is it safe to assume that large portion of our fanbase is from the west side?

The problem is that it alienated both the hardcore Higurashi fans, who expected more bloodshed and mayhem, or at least a proper dramatic conclusion a'la Tsumihoroboshi-hen and onwards, and the classical mystery fans who expected him to stick to mystery rules, conventions and the whole schtick, since he was referencing (especially famous Japanese mysteries) like crazy throughout the series. The pool of people who are into meta-mysteries with a strong touch of anime'esque melodrama is really small. Quote:
But well, with the new Higurashi spin-off chapter being released next Comiket, even the Japanese fanbase seems tired and screams of "Oh drop it already" are growing loud. Quote:

You know Alchemist is evil when they do this to you
http://puu.sh/7T4Np.JPG I just realized there was a trailer for "portable 3" in portable 2. Sigh, I wish it wasn't canceled.

It wasn't until Chiru that they started trying to follow classic mystery rules, yet that's when everyone says it stopped doing so. 1-4 is far less structured and fair than 5-8. |
