Umineko When They Cry - Bernkastel meets Featherine 

And Hanyuu's "Au au" mannerism stands for Augustus Aurora

Well, Hanyuu isn't her 'real' name, it's actually just a nickname her husband (father of Furude Ouka, Rika's ancestor) gave her, since he struggled with pronouncing her full name, which was Hai-Ryūn Ieasomūru Jeda.

@@yumallah Still doesn't change anything. 😊

i think hanyuu was gifted to bern-rika by aurora since in higurashi rika was just a human and aurora knew her miko would not deal it without help

@@yumallah Hairyun means "Feathered Peer" in Hanyuu's language so it's p much the same thing.

me: yes mommy featherine: what? me: what?

So true.

Hearing "black tea" is not normal anymore

Mengapa?

Idk why but Bern saying "bitch wtf" is just so funny in my head 🤣🤣

@@Fallendown-pq1ot Probably at end of Higurashi game board she dies of boredom

@@Fallendown-pq1ot achira kochira sa..a.....

Yes

@@matthewballon7553 ME omfg im shocked

It was certain to happen at some point. But the question was when.

​ @wrth13s Yep who knows when that happened.

yes.

@Omega Zero Are you saying she needs to reenact her family legend? If you don’t know one of the lore bits of Higurashi is that Hanyuu, when alive as an oni-like being who’se existence created the Syndrome, married a Furude priest and had a daughter. When her husband was murdered she went into an insane frenzy and began mindlessly eating the inhabitants of Onigafuchi, thus giving birth to the legend of the flesh-eating oni. Her daughter was thus forced to use the Furude’s sacred sword to permanently kill her, thus ending the massacre and creating the legend of the Watanagashi ritual. Basically, considering how very obvious Gou is being about a lot of the broad details, my guess is that we already know how it ends. Rika goes insane and becomes an “oni”, and the appointed ‘shrine maiden” kills her with the sword. For all the ‘trolling”, the entire sequel has been nothing short of predictable if you paid attention (if anything, people were being fooled because of how obvious the answer was).

@@lenleon3699 Even though I can relate to your theory and actually see it presumably going to be confirmed,I am trying to prepare myself to the eventually inevitable demise of Rika as we know her,it will ache my heart for ever.

@Omega Zero Which would still be a repeat of the Black Script of the Furude Family. And a repeat of Saikoroshi as well, where Rika awakens in a “perfect world” and to return to the Matsuri fragment she kills her mother. Honestly that is why everyone though it was mostly over and done with after Saikoroshi-hen (since Rika already had to experience the horror of patricide on top of her eternal looping).

There are two things bugging me with the actions of Auau. Although the results would appear the same, the motive could be different. Either chose satoko to put Rika into despair which will give birth to Bernkastel because Auau was simply interested if she could break the Rika who “stopped counting” (remembering the original Bernkastel was born by counting how many times she failed) to find out if it would give birth to a new Bernkastel. Or she wanted to have another “Bernkastel” out of Satoko which could give her new forms of entertainment be it in Higurashi or Umineko. Either way, the result would be the same, the birth of Bernkastel. Just a wild thought, what do you think?

@@josephryantengco3671 interesting speculation. But I hope Satoko become Lambdadelta. Bernkastel only rival and friends.

here x2

Yep :)

Here x4

here X5 With the only slight difference that I had already red Umineko before even started watching Gou. I am inevitably preparing myself for the worst. “This story won’t have a good ending”.

@@riccardoisoni1872 Well I have no problem with this type of ending because if it is not like that having made a sequel after Kai would not make sense in my opinion.

True so true

True

both are tea addict witches too-

I want my hanyuu back 😥

Can you tell more about her recovering from being Hanyu? Why did she become Hanyu exactly

@@eldarius237 Becuase of her "horns". These are horns when she's Hanyuu, but they're actually Featherine's memory device, where she store not only her memories but her whole personality and powers. Lambdadelta mentions in Umineko that somehow, a long time ago that device got damaged and Featherine forgot who she was. This fit perfectly with... well, everything. Hanyuu's cracked horn is actually her damaged memory device, and when she manages to repair it she became Featherine again. Featherine as Eua also mention the cracked horn vs her full "horns" to Satoko when talking about how the cracked horn wasn't as powerful as her device and thus didn't allowed Rika to retain the memories of her deaths, which makes sense.

@@Jurarigo Thanks, makes perfect sense indeed

I guess that explains the "black tea is best enjoyed with fellow monsters"

True. You're not the only one. We're all waiting...

Sotsu: Allow me to introduce myself

Same I was like okay I guess I’ll watch this even tho it’s a reboot but nope it’s a full on sequel and directly continues off the 2006 higurashi I love it so much sotsu is also amazing

I've been imagining it all the time and it looks good, you know. However, now we're getting yet another season of Higurashi :D

@@wrathu13s hopefully !!

I remember that Ryukishi said that he's working on a new Umineko project

@@bryanalarcon871 👀👀👀

(@@bryanalarcon871) oh? Any sources for this? I'm interested.

I mean, given that later on Featherine absolutely demolishes Lambdadelta like she was nothing (she doesn’t even bother to specify what she threw to her to reduce her to a mess), that gives us a faint idea that she’s on a truly different level than any other witch.

@@BonazaiGirl Yep, and that moment was so impactful. Lambdadelta was insanely powerful already and she wasn't beaten, she wasn't even annihilated. She was simply written off by one stroke of a quill.

What do you mean? Obviously, they are cousins.

@@el-karasu6070 Sailor Moon DIC Dub reference.

It surely is.

One of the best moments.

Bernkastel is the dark alternate personality of rika after she spent a hell traveling through the sea of fragments, Featherines cats are the protagonists of lots of different stories/kakera worlds and basically Feath took that alternate persona and made it into one of her cats later on she would turn the cat into a witch who became Bernkastel. Lambadelta never really had any implications of her ascension to witch-hood (at least not yet 🥸)

@@catzlaflame4518 Witch Satoko.

Put the gloves on Featherine. 🥊🥊

Hanyuu is a Featherine that either got bored and left Hanyuu to her own devices or just couldn't be bothered. Another case could be that Hanyuu is the Featherine horn that got damaged.

I still don´t get where does this love began. ¿When did Feathrine started to watch Bern like a daughter? That´s what her imagen song "Gloria in excelsis Dea" says, that she saw her like a bird in a cage and took her so she could know more. When did Hanyuu started to care so much about her, and then Featherine stills care about her, but just in the matter of "boredom"

@@tofi5952 Well, since Rika is a desendend of Hanyuu, she cares. At least thats what her original origin story said

They are 4 different people. Did you even play Umineko?! Bernkastel and Featherine are witches, Bernkastel is the miko witch of Featherine, the most powerful, godlike witch. Witches are magical beings and do not directly interfere in the stories of men and women, aka Rika-- they play with the larger 'chessboard' of men and women and manipulate their stories that way from a higher plane. Rika is a mortal. She is not a magical witch like Bernkastel. There is a theory that being put through several loops created the alternate personality within the Fragment World that gave birth to the magical witch Bernkastel, which is implied when the Adult Rika is seen talking to Kid Takano when Kid Takano's origin story changes and her parents don't die. But Bernkastel IS NOT Rika by any stretch. Hanyuu is a mortal god, but still levels lower than Featherine's power, the fact that in some Hinamizawa loops the kids can see/interact/talk/play with Hanyuu right there sets her apart from Featherine. Only Satoko has the power to talk to Featherine in Higurashi and it is only after 1,000s of loops and (in Featherine's words) millions of years of trying to get to that 'higher plane'. Hanyuu and Rika are chesspieces. Featherine and Bernkastel are chess players. That is the difference.

@Bean Bowl I thought so aswell but the nNewest episode hints that this isn't the case though-

We all hope

oh

maybe when they dont find humans entertaining anymore lol

@@pinkfluffycute then they will die Since they are omnipotent, attack on titan is spoiled for them and they can't even enjoy it😭 I think they will still read Dorohedoro

@@pinkfluffycute hello there ~ boundary hag~

Featherine is her own creator. 😊

Featherine is the Author's Avatar, and the Creator's Life, the reason things exist.

Ryukiashi: the witch who trikes his readers | is the creator of Featherine Augustus auaurora

I think Featherine wrote herself into existence or some shit like that. She’s GOATed in canon.

@@TheBeastBandit lol xd

David Production

UFOtable since Umineko contains tons of flashy lights, and ufotable specializes in those effects

Have no idea😢, just hope they won’t cut the details

Actually now, having seen Umineko characters' sprites in the Higurashi Mei game, I can't imagine no other studio than Passione. It would just look so consistent next to Gou/Sotsu.

You may be interested in this list of similar characters: 07th-expansion.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_Similar_Characters To put it simply, Ryukishi seems to treat his character archetypes as actors who play different roles in various VNs. Rika isn't the only one but, for sure, she's one of the most important ones.

No, Hanyuu’s VA is Yui Horie. I don’t remember the name for Featherine’s but definitely is not Yui Horie

Featherine and Hanyuu don't share the same VA, but if you read Umineko, you'll instead discover that several of the characters from Higu and Umi indeed share VAs. I'll list some examples off the top of my head. Satoshi - Kanon Takano - Eva, EVA Beatrice Rika's mom - Beatrice Rika - Bernkastel (of course) Akane - Virgilia Hanyuu - Maria Akasaka - Battler Chisato - Ange (That last one is a Higu VN Console Arc exclusive so most may not recognize the name. Plus, Chisato is voiced by a different VA come Miotsukushi.) Also, I'm not 100% but it does sound like at least Higu anime Okonogi and Krauss have the same VA. Could be wrong though.

Higurashi Gou "Featherine" VA: Hidaka Noriko OG Featherine VA: Michiko Neya Hanyu Hiiragi VA: Yui Horie (same VA with Ushiromiya Maria from Umineko

Umineko When They Cry

End of episode 6

The game is Umineko

eh i a disagree with horrible, more mediocre, also why remake them when you have the og vn to read instead, higurashi and umineko were specifically made with vn and anime format, they don´t work with anime format

@@joaquinjovane135 how ? The animation is horrible and they didn't get all the fights and info in the anime. VN is not really a better source. It is horrible made and needs to be remade by a better studio Mappa or Wit. "you have the og vn to read" I did it still that's not comparable to an anime. I want to see a real manga adaptation not some childplay. Where is gore where are the fights

@@NickN56 gore, bro wtc is not about gore, if you jyou read wtc for gore i don´t know , what to tell you, bro you don´t need anime, anime is overrated, there is no need to overexploit an already told story just for your desires

@@joaquinjovane135 yeah not how this works bro. There a scenes like Lambda vs Bern creating and destroying universes like butter. Battle vs Bern needs a good animation to work. This is why Umineko will never get appreciation. That's why the sales are so low and animes like DS with a mediocre story at best is getting a god like animation and recognition.

@@NickN56 you´re ill

If you’re talking about the series itself,it’s not a game. It’s a visual novel

I disagree, the series is quite interesting if your into mystery

Visual novel is not a game. It's like reading a comic in a much more lively way

Behold the attention span of anime-only folks

This is not a game, its a visual novel of course there would be a lot of reading what did you expect?
