AntiMystery vs AntiFantasy

"Umineko no naku koro ni" is a game soft created by 07th Expansion (FUJIX, inc), which is a group includes dragon knights 07.

I presume many people have heard Dragon knights 07 or 07th Expansion, because "Higurashi no naku koro ni (Higurashi When they Cry)" is famous. This story is also about multiple bizarre murder case just like the previous story of " Higurashi no naku koro ni (Higurashi When they Cry)". Truth of the crime that happened with a person of certain family at Solitary Island that has witch legend, which the story will be taking place at, will be found. The way of inferring is exquisite that composition is made by main character Ushiromiya Battler arguing with suspect (self-proclaimed) of this case and golden witch who became a legend of this island・Beatrice.

Butler face with Beatrice from metaphysics position (objective position) and will be talking about if it is physically possible for human to create all those incidents that are happening at the island or if it is done by witchcraft of the witch (impossible to done by human). When Battler cannot explain well about the trick or the possibility or stop inferring and to recognize it is done by a witch then Battler will loose.

Anyhow, as you may know already this story is quite tough. For example, when murder happens Beatrice immediately prove every single alive person's alibi. Therefore, the suspect automatically be the witch, Beatrice who doesn't exists. From there you would have to confirm there is no contradicts of what she proved.

Personally, because the famous main character Battler looks fine, so he is quite interesting! He does get little passionate, but also has calmness that he makes things sure smoothly, therefore he is a character who boosts up the user's detective mind. Since he has such a warmhearted, so the trap witch set and her performance fool him, which is quite sad.

Such "Umineko no naku koro ni". This game can be recommended to people who want to see anime that overwhelms and of course people who love mystery. By the way, manga that announced a comment of covering the answers of all the mysteries that left out during anime or game is publishing serially with each media even now, so it might be best to enjoy by starting with anime or game to have your own inference and get that answer by reading manga!!
