I want my fucking time back. What the fuck is this shit. I finished episode 3 and I'm fully ready to drop this piece of shit. People saying it's a premier and tightly written murder mystery with occult elements and then
>Murder lolis >Omnipowered lolis >Bunny girls guardians of Arthur
Even when you get an interesting concept like Eva's coping becoming an entity of evil, shock and awe, it's a loli that goes around killing people. And then other super powered lolis go and and get thrown into the mix. Is the author simply retarded and knows he can't write an interesting story so he has to throw in giant fight scenes? Is this the peak of visual novels? Another trashy story that has to throw in gore and fetish pandering and giant fights in order to keep people interested?!
What a piece of garbage. Fuck the people pretending this is some holy grail, you filthy VN troglodytes are all the same.
Are you the same op starting the other hate threads? Keep going.
Angel Gonzalez
Nope.
David Reyes
what you even believe what waifufags and moeshitters have to say lol
Adrian Campbell
>guardians of Arthur
That's quite literally nothing more than flavor text. Is that what's bothering you?
If you don't like anime tropes why are you on an anime board?
Adam Roberts
It gave us Japanese bird cooking pasta so it can't be that bad.
Jackson Gutierrez
It really is my mistake for giving the benefit of the doubt and expecting to really and truly be a mature story that had a juicy murder mister and not...... this.
Aaron Cooper
What do the character designs have to do with the quality of the mystery?
Did you read it with the old sprites or what?
Nolan Howard
Episode 3 is the best though. A perfect mix between fantasy and reality, with the real stuff being hidden just enough for it to make sense.
The VN starts being bad with episode 6.
Ethan Hall
The tonal clash of something trying to be a murder mystery and having sadistic lolis toss around and torture people really set me off.
Giant towers and lances and reality locking out fate battles have no fucking place in a serious story. Bunny girls don't either. I'm still recovering from that sort of tonal whiplash. It's like reading Sherlock Holmes and finding out halfway that he is a Stand user and his enemy can teleport when they blink. Utter suspension of disbelief break.
Occultism, homonculi, soul trapping, real black magic shit paired with real life people having real life family issues. This stuff is amazing. And it's so few and far between the shitshow that is fetish characters and fate battles that it broke any enjoyment and respect I had for the work.

Fact, Umineko stopped being good when it was no longer a horror mystery. Higurashi was like to a lesser extent. And this is why I have no interest in ciconia, because it looks like R07 decided what people really love is his action and chuuni-shit.
Brandon Bennett
>And it's so few and far between the shitshow that is fetish characters and fate battles The fights are sometimes bullshit but sometimes they're meant to represent something happening in reality, just distorted. I didn't think they were that bad, especially since the VN usually does the whole "spooky atmosphere where MC tries to figure out stuff" pretty well (thanks to the soundtrack, mainly).
My gripes with the VN aren't really with the presentation. It's pretty clear that the magic is either chuuni fantasy meant to be entertaining or actually hiding something for the reader to find out. I can deal with both, especially the later. My issue is that the VN makes some choices later on that feel quite hypocritical

>People saying it's a premier and tightly written murder mystery with occult elements and then No one said that because the solution to the mystery is so offensively retarded it's a waste of time to even bother and try to solve it yourself.
Matthew Carter
user I don't know if you've figured this out yet but the magic scenes............ aren't actually real
Fucking retard
Asher Martinez
Just read something good then. Fate and R07 are full of wordy infodumps, not all VNs are like that.
There is quite literally nothing wrong with any of the things you listed, and you can't prove me wrong.
Levi Miller
I never said they were real. But if in the middle of Sherlock Holmes you put a scene where he's blowing his dog, just to say it was a nightmare, that image is still there.
Jaxon Carter
>I finished episode 3 and I'm fully ready to drop this piece of shit. You sound like you've just got pleb filtered hard. Why the fuck are you reading VNs then you pretenious wannabe il/lit/erate. >it's a loli that goes around killing people. You're so fucking dumb it's laughable. Get out off Yas Forums and get out of Yas Forums in general, if you don't like otaku shit then why the fuck are you even here? You can't even jack yourself off with your poor man's cyncism because you're anonymous.
Because I'm the bigger man, I wasn't going to shit on it on the basis of it being a VN even thought I could have. I decided to give it the benefit of the doubt. And now i want my fucking time back.
Chase Johnson
Higurashi also goes full retard near the end. You don't solve a murder mystery with magical space brain parasites.
Juan Rivera
You need to go back You do not belong here I'm sure some shithole or another will take you instead, but it seems you've clicked on the wrong site.
You're at episode 3 and you haven't even finished the setting for the mystery , lol. As for the rest , why are you so easily influenced by other ? Can't you read superior things instead ?
Cooper Johnson
Higurashi wastes way too much fucking time in getting where it needs to get, and is generally retarded. Particularly the Rena chapter. Shittons of time dedicated to a water gun battle, only to refer back to it when they're fighting on the roof because muh poetry it rhymes. And what kind of police wouldlet two teenagers fight on a roof to the death without intervening? Higurashi had a solid foundation and interesting concept but went complete retard with it. Waste of time.
Landon Davis
It's an anime-style VN. Chuuni stuff goes with the territory. I'm not sure what you were expecting.
Lincoln Ramirez
>Higurashi >murder mystery Nope, it was denpa, that's why that solution is allowed, par of the course with the genre.
James Carter
jesus fucking christ rena vs keiichi was the best moment in the VN, fuck off you realisticfaggot
Jack Price
It was a very good personal friend who I trusted who was shilling it for 3 years and saying it wasn't typical VN trash. Then it was two other mutual friends from the same group that started to read it and said it was good. I feel utterly bambozled.
Christopher Perez
Nah, it went on for way too long. The pacing ruined what should have been a touching moment.
Jackson Ramirez
it was like 40 minutes, I bet you liked the anime version in which they just flail like retards for 3 minutes and that's it
Mason Bell
I bet you couldn't guess what Eva's trick was you fucking retard
Nicholas Scott
I think you just have shit taste user, it can't be helped.
Matthew Cruz
I actually I kind of get OP's complaint. All the chuuni shit wasn't present from the beginning, it blindsides you starting episode 2 and 3. If you like the more grounded aspects then it's basically false advertising. Most people drop Umineko in episode 2 because of the chuuni laser sword fight sequence comes out of nowhere and confuses the reader.
Though it's a bit odd he hates chuunishit so much. I assume OP watches anime, so he should already be familiar with it. I thought some fantasy anime elements like the red in episode 2 was complete genius. The fight sequences did add a lot of drama, even though I thought they were overdone and took too long. Removing all chuuni elements from the story would make it quite dull.
Jace Gonzalez
user NOT IS ALL FAKE I FOUND THE REAL SOLUTION OF UMINEKO ERIKANTRICE
ERIKA IS KANON this is why erika didnt saw kanon in the closet because Kanon was into herself
