#UMINEKO ANIME TO VN SERIES#
UPDATE 2012-August-19: I added the link to the manga series - I didn't know there was one, but it looks so far to be like the anime~ I'll either update this or make a new post as I finish the anime, and later the game. If anyone's played the game and watched the anime, or has a pretty good knowledge/experience of both, leave a comment please - I'd like to hear! Though from the clips I watched on Youtube - the derpy art actually makes it rather creepy for some reason.the characters' expressions especially. The anime's somewhat gory and mildy creepy, but nothing to keep you up at night. Not to say that the plottwists and reveals aren't well worth that. Plotwise, Umineko is highly convoluted and will almost definitely give you a headache trying to keep up. Fyi to the visual/artfart sort, the anime is BEAUTIFULLY done the game's art is.well you can see the art comparison above - the three characters center on the game art are the same three featured in the magazine clip for the anime.īe warned though: there's a lot of time jumping and flashbacks/forwards (in the most LITERAL sense of the word) involved. Personally I've never yet played the game (or any visual novel game, tbh) but I hope to once I have time. I've only ever watched a few episodes into the anime, but from the wiki articles and the info floating around the web, there's major plot differences. Someone I knew previously told me the anime series was VERY different from the game, because it takes a different track from the original game plot. He seeks to defeat Beatrice in a game of logic, reviewing the events of the island to show that a human was behind all the strange events, and prove that neither witches nor magic exist. However one character, Battler, believes that there's no way magic can be causing the murders, and because of this the riddle cannot be completed. Until the riddle is solved, people will continue to die in accordance to the riddle itself.if the riddle comes to an end without being solved, Beatrice will fully revive. The murders puzzle and terrify the guests, until a woman named "Beatrice" appears who claims to be a witch - apparently she made a deal with the guests' father, Kinzo, many years ago, for 10 tons of gold to restore his fortune.īeatrice left a riddle (epitaph, what you will) - the one who solves it receives the gold and becomes the next head of the family. A storm traps them during a reunion at the island of their family home, upon which time odd things begin to happen, and people begin to turn up mysteriously dead. The plot is based on a closed circle/detective mystery premise - the characters ("guests") are all members of the Ushiromiya.
