What WERE the Chestier sisters representations of? Maria's toys that she claimed were alive, and when she talked about them with Beatrice they thought up characters for them? This one is a bit more mystifying to me, because you have illusions like Zephar and Furfur who obviously are reflections of Yasu's thoughts on love and gender so I would almost expect the bunny girls to have more meaning.

I suppose you could say they reflect Yasu's friendship with Maria, or the idea of "dolls/toys given life" could be seen as another example of Yasu thinking of themselves as "furniture".

https://umineko.fandom.com/wiki/Umineko_no_Naku_Koro_ni_Tsubasa https://umineko.fandom.com/wiki/Umineko_no_Naku_Koro_ni_Hane My favorite is Game Master Battler: While he is making Dawn of the Golden Witch, Battler is approached by all the other characters, who are willing to do anything to get a bigger role in his game. --- Fuhlt nicht durch dich Sarastro Todesschmerzen, So bist du meine Tochter nimmermehr-- eeeeeeeeeeeeeeehr. ...

That DOES sound fun!
I do wonder how Battler's game would have played it had it not gotten interrupted. Battler claimed he was going to reveal the truth, but would he REALLY have shown everything about Yasu? I doubt it, I can see Battler wanting to keep Yasu and their life "safe" and honored. So I would imagine that the love game would be a metaphor for the fact that Shannon, Kannon and Beatrice are the same person. Maybe a big clue is shown to Jessica, nothing is explicitly SAID but you can basically infer what is going on. If you reveal those three are the same, then you can show the truth of the crimes without having to go into Yasu's story. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

There's the manga version too since I think it's more accessible.
Yeah, I agree that Battler is not ever the type of person who would reveal the whole truth without embellishment...especially after what he did in EP8. --- Fuhlt nicht durch dich Sarastro Todesschmerzen, So bist du meine Tochter nimmermehr-- eeeeeeeeeeeeeeehr. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I also have a crackpot theory that Shannon and Kanon are the illegitimate children of... someone in the family, which explains why 1) They started working as servants at a very young age 2) The older brother's wife don't like them 3) They act like siblings 4) Lots of servants have left but they didn't even if they are not very welcome 5) They have English-like names ... this one is a stretch though because it seems lots of other unknown servants have them. popcornfairy.gif --- https://imgtc.com/i/uWMMlnN.png I've got a home on the other side ...

I think it's funny how many people assume Shannon and Kanon are bastards of the family, and then forget they had that theory. Arria suggested they were "Kinzo's by-blows" as soon as they appeared, and yet now in Ep 5 and 6, even with all the stuff about the Man from 19 years ago and the baby that was tossed off the cliff... it's like she forgot Shannon and Kanon might be that kid. --- Account created-9/10/04.

Most of the solution had been bandied about in the fan community prior to ep5's release. The solution to the epitaph had been worked out by a few mad geniuses, and we were at least aware Shkanontrice was a viable explanation for the culprit. The mechanics for how it worked weren't as well established; that really requires Ep6. A lot of people were worried about some kind of multiple personality solution and rejected the correct answer out of hand as a result. But if you wait half a year and just talk about Umineko, turns out you can indeed work most of it out.

Well maybe you need to have a right frame of mind or something. I had guessed that Shannon was the main killer, but when I guessed that Shannon was Kanon and WANTED to believe it there was so much contradictory stuff against it that it appears to be impossible.

Multiple Personalities was my main theory most of the game, found some of my old Umineko Notes.
Popcorn_Fairy Notes I'm feeling really good about my Umineko multiple personality theory. Going back and re-reading the end of episode 4 with that theory in mind and I caught a line where they refused to repeat in red a line about multiple names. Multiple names can very quickly lead into multiple personalities. I think that this could solve Nanjo's murder from episode 3. EVA declared with red everyone dead by name. But if someone is using a different name, then that could bypass EVA's red, correct? Battler brings up multiple personalities and different names, but only applies it to Jessica. EVA shoots it down with red, but only applies it to Jessica. So, by applying multiple names/personalities to one of the dead, EVA could easily declare in red so and so is dead, tricking us to believe that. They then use a different name, the red is no longer applying to them, meaning they aren't necessarily dead. Boom, shoot Nanjo. Mystery solved. Popcorn_Fairy Notes The Multiple Personality Theory solves even more of Umineko's mysteries. Popcorn_Fairy Notes I have a theory. I've been holding off on explaining because it sounds stupid as hell. But, whatever. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
