The first half of this chapter (while good) felt way too obvious out it's themes about love and it is the weaker half of this chapter but it really picked it self back up around the time of the first twilight. I feel like parts of my problems in this chapter is how I really do not care for the relationship between Shannon and George (I like the other relationships, like Jessica and Kannon as well as Battler and Beatrice). The foreshadowing of the Logic Error was also done well but my dumbass thought it was meant to represent Ange and how she is close to her family and yet cannot reach them (not because she can't leave the room but because they are dead). This chapter managed to hate Erika even more especially when it's revealed that she killed all the previous "victims" to ensure that they were dead (I love Dlanor tho).



(I might change the rating after I finish reading the entire VN)

Edit: changed from 5 stars to 4.5 stars

for one shining golden moment i thought battler was going to start being cool and then i played this episode

Imo, the peak of umineko, the emotional weight of this chapter is really awesome, great mystery, and great ending, and the story at this point is so insane, that i couldn't stop reading lol.

First half is the "make it painfully obvious" arc, second half have some great moments

At least when I read this arc I know people didn't like it as much as the previous ones (pleasantly surprised with the average on here). Ultimately while the intro to the arc was horrible it's climax is one of my favourites in the series.
