Naka no Hito nado Inai! Tokyo Hero Project http://s.vndb.org/cv/45/13845.jpg Cute art style, similar to Osadai... well, it's made by the same people apparently. Shares characters with Osadai according to VNDB. Probably some good comedy in there. Would read.

[spoiler=Umineko song]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z27pIIOnZlU Mmmmmmmmm... Umi music... so many nice ones to choose from. Gotta love all the songs with lyrics. Though the versions without lyrics are obviously excellent too.

Hayarigami DS: Toshidensetsu Kaii Jiken http://s.vndb.org/cv/13/2513.jpg This one looks pretty decent. DS game, dark, mature, murder mystery, detective work. It's in Japanese but not really gonna take that into account for this. I'd play it.

I think it goes without saying now, but whatever: Umineko (Chiru) really did end up being the very best. So, When They Cry was an ever improving experience after all even though it started out fantastic in arc 1 of Higurashi. You better believe that I wasn't sure that it would end up this way back when I had just finished all of Higurashi. But here we are. So: #1 Umineko Chiru, #2 Umineko Ni, #3 Higurashi Kai, #4 Higurashi Ni. ... And now to wait for the next When They Cry masterpiece while reading Higanbana+Rose Guns Days at some point.

EP2 did not disappoint! At least not for me it didn't. They're keeping the quality up. Mokocchi is awesome and funny, plain and simple. "Screenshot moments" all over the place in this anime. But there's more than just comedy in there, that's for sure. [spoiler=EP2]Kuroneko, welcome! Glad to see you again.

Watamote episode 2 with FTW translation is out: Watamote – 02 | Unlimited Translation Works

1. As Gerard said, you should read Higurashi first either way. Umineko (1-4) is called 'When They Cry 3'... and that's all I will say. There are patches for Higurashi as well in case you're wondering. 2. ... Well I'm not going to say too much about it right now, but: You don't know what Umineko is and what it can do, until you decide to read it. And I mean the entire series. That description on VNDB? Couldn't possibly get any more basic. We should all be THANKFUL for it being so basic actually.

!! !! But yea, definitely. I mean, read something else? Now? Geeeeeeeez... hard to imagine... Well to be fair, still need to read/play Tsubasa, Hane and Ougon Musou Kyoku Cross, and going to do that before moving on to anything else. ... It really is sad. Umineko is "over". I already said that in my post above and also the fact that I'm happy about getting the chance to experience it in the first place. But it's still sad that it's over, regardless. [spoiler=Umineko Chiru Ending]I cried... a lot. That moment when the screen pans over all the characters and such... mmm. All the cha

Oh yea, VERY interesting to say the least! [spoiler=SUPER UMINEKO SPOILER][Let's be honest, Shannon and Kanon even from the beginning seemed a bit... off, with the way they talked. But also the actual events of the 1-4 episodes (which were stories/theories/message bottles). The fact that Kanon 'disappeared' in both EP2 and EP4, for example. It's pretty weird though, yes. And also, not that many things is 100% certain... at all. It's a catbox. Plenty of different events *could* have happened. Plenty of things have not been confirmed. Yasu's/Lion's gender and his/her problems with identify

I have also finished Umineko no Naku Koro ni Chiru (EP 5-8) now, and the whole series as a result. In fact, all of When They Cry (Higurashi + Umineko) even. Still got those two fandiscs left, Tsubasa and Hane, and also the fighting game expansion - Ougon Musou Kyoku Cross. But other than that, I'm done. What to say now then... I could not possibly be happier about having read and experienced When They Cry. These VNs were perfect for my taste. They are my top favourites (Umineko/Chiru being #1), for sure, absolutely, with certainty. As for Umineko and Umineko Chiru specifically... well

Wow, GREAT first episode. To be honest, it's not often that I laugh out loud from watching any anime... it's usually more like a low snicker/snort/whatever, right? But this first episode of Watamote actually pulled it off. Mission accomplished I guess. Kuroki Tomoko was even more awesome and funny than I thought she'd be.

Yeee, gonna watch this. Seems funny and has a unique main character... or that's my perception of her right now at least, hehe.

Yea agreed, definitely the best part of the story. So even if you don't like the first chapters of the VN, it's worth it to continue.

Oh this has raising sim gameplay huh... didn't know that actually. And nice ratings it's got too! Hm hm yes, promising.

*thumbs up*

Awesome! !! !!

Mm, nice to have another big gameplay VN. It seems to be of good quality as well.

Epic Erika is epic. http://i.imgur.com/O3Us2A0.jpg

Let me change my statement then since no, you're right, I haven't read all VNs in existence: Umineko has the best OST by far of any VN I've read so far. No other VN's OST that I've heard even comes close. It's on a different level entirely from any of them. It's extremely unlikely (but not 100%, true) that I'm going to hear a better OST for a VN any time in the future.

Hm, that's very promising.

Okay, didn't know about that actually, thanks! Well if the anime is considered better by most anyway then nevermind I guess. : p
