there’s something tragically poetic about all the original comments being erased, a decade of umineko fans giving their closing remarks on a series that for many of us changed our lives and is our favorite piece of fiction, all of it gone. just like the story of rokenjima the stories of all those people are now at the bottom of the ocean locked away in the catbox never to be seen again.
Oh you're right. I just saw it as sad like the way Higurashi got so popular and started raking in money so it keeps getting rewritten over and over to add more and more to what was actually a completed story. To me Umineko losing its past seems similar. However, you're right. Regardless of how you look at it, the metaphor is perfect. More and more is added, but the true past is gone forever, unknown. Whether for better or for worse the past is changed by our perceptions.
@@NazoKiyoubinbouSpot on about Higurashi. It’s ending had a proper resolution and an unforgettable climax and conclusion, Gou and Sotsu had no reason to exist other than to milk away a perfectly fine ended series.
So true. What did those people say? What did they feel? Some of us remain, but for those who have moved on, perhaps we will never know the answer again.
@@NazoKiyoubinbou Well put. At least for me, listening to the soundtracks is like a time machine that allows me to go back to those times when all I knew was the original
@@user-lc6ys2eq8nthe original Ricordando il Passato, that readers used as an internet checkpoint, was deleted when my comment was posted. This is a reupload of that video.
i can't believe the original got taken down literally a decade's worth of umineko comments is gone :( anyway gonna leave my mark here once again 1/5/2022
OH MY GOSH I DIDNT EVEN REALIZE THIS WAS A DIFFERENT VIDEO WHEN I CLICKED ON IT. oh man im REALLY hoping that its still recoverable somehow. There were so many comments, each one a different person who got to experience such a beautifully crafted story with such a tragic but equally bittersweet song. But regardless... Rest in peace, my beloved witch, Beatrice.
I finished Umineko on May 30th 2020, and the ending lived rent free in my mind ever since. There's something about the fact that Ange created a kind environment for orphans like herself, and recreating Beatrice's painting as the core of the room, so that Beatrice's existence continues to be remembered and in fond memories. And the fact that Battler could not rest in peace until he saw Ange happy, and most importantly, until he saw Beatrice again. It's all he ever needed, and it's the only things that made him fight for his life, it's his love for Beatrice, and his love for Ange. Although the story at first disguises itself as cruel story about insufferable rich people, the story slowly delves deeper into their humanity, and that they're just victims from the start, victims that had no love left in their heart. Episode 4 and 8 are the ones that struck deepest in my heart. Episode 4 revealed so much about Rosa and Maria. To me, it felt like Rosa's self loathing caused her to put her trauma in Maria, but Rosa loved Maria and was aware of what she was doing, so she tried as much as she can to stay away from Maria, and sleep with men as awful as her to validate her self-loathing. She didn't trust anyone at all and she viewed everyone as an enemy, she thought that locking Maria in the house with her beloved dolls was the only way for Maria to not grow up to become like her, or for Maria to live a happy life. And at the moment where Rosa tore off Sakutarou which made Maria snap, all the hope that Rosa had in herself was vanished, Maria was the only one keeping her hope in herself alive. Rosa snapped back at her in purgatorio and kept taunting Maria to torture her, because Rosa thought that's what she deserved, and what would give Maria peace of mind. Ange and Eva's relationship was one of my favorites of all time, I love how despite all the hurt and loneliness Eva felt, especially with Ange pushing her hatred towards her, Eva wanted to protect Ange until the end, she did everything to protect her, and even in death, she continues to protect Ange.....she really loved her, from the bottom of her heart. And the parallel between Ange and Beatrice was amazing, Beatrice gave up and cursed her fate, so she decided to leave everything to fate and stop trying to make a change. Ange was the same, until the last moment, where she stood up and decided to live for herself and everyone else, she found happiness in making the world a better place. Natsuhi is such an amazing character as well, in episode 5, it made her actions in episode 1 much more meaningful, she wanted to protect the children as much as she could even if she had to become a demon, so she can "redeem" herself from pushing Sayo over the cliff, in a way it was her chance to become a good mother. And by the end of episode 1, she seemingly killed herself for both Sayo and Jessica's sake. And in episode 5, it felt like it was a way to show Natsuhi's utter loneliness, by killing off the people that will be on her side no matter what: Jessica and Krauss. But maybe Natsuhi was always lonely, and the moment she was forced to confess her sin.....she became free. she's an incredibly complicated character. Also, the halloween theme being consistent with the message of the story was so well-written. Halloween is the time where the gap between the live and dead is thin, that was the case for Battler and Ange. Battler was dead, but he kept fighting back like a phoenix inside Tohya's body. Ange was alive, but she kept fighting for a reason to justify her reason to die. At the end, the gap between the life and death closed, Ange found beauty in life, and Battler accepted his death and reunited with everyone. A story of this significance is so difficult to describe with words, the emotions it made all the fans including myself feel is irreplaceable and united, it's a kind story that believes in everyone's future. Obviously alot of characters are not meant to be forgiven, but merely understood. My favorite characters are: Ange, Eva, Maria, Lambda, Natsuhi, and Battler. To anyone who read this, who is your favorite character? and why?
nice writeup, imo is beatrice the best character is pretty obvious, great backstory, iconic moments, iconic character design, her relation with battler is great, and like at first glance beato is the main antagonist at the early episodes, but the more you progress, you feel there is something wrong with beato, her story is so tragic, but i am happy that she found peace with battler in the afterlife, also beato and battler is a really great couple very well written, without feeling too cringe. i finished umineko yesterday, and is at this moment, my favorite story of my life, i cried so much at the end..
@@tecmangames69 Welcome new Umineko finisher! This is definitely a story I will never forget, I cried so much at the end as well.... Battler and Beatrice are geniunely one of the few couples I'm obsessed with, their love for each other is so sincere, and the ending was what made their love feel like something indescribable with words alone and is something that you can only truly feel after the journey. Although everyone has their own interpretations of the story, there's no denying how much Battler loved Beatrice.... Imo, even though Bern said that "this game will not have a happy ending", it felt like a happy ending to me. Ange lived happily and shared her happiness with people to make the world a better place, Battler rested in peace with his loved ones.... That red truth was so perfect because it proved that everyone has their own truth and can interpret things differently... This is such an amazing story.
@@wolfganggrimmer6120 is happy ending, but more an bittersweet one, the ushiromiyas except battler are dead, but ange accepted that, and moved on but she was always believed that someone could come back, and batter returned, and in the ending battler finnaly found peace, even though is in the afterlife, after all that tragedy the ushiromiyas, and definitely sayo and battler deserved that, amazing ending, umineko story is great, there are a lot of interpretations of the ending, and i even not found mine lol, but i like a lot the theory that ikuki is sayo.
Honestly, Rosa's story just shows how parents don't become "real adults" with the snap of a finger right after having children. She was unable to overcome her traumas and placed this responsibility on a man, hoping that she could become a good wife. And when she was left alone, with only a reminder of her "mistake" next to her, she began to take her anger and despair out on Maria. I don’t justify her, and Maria’s words about how her mother is being possessed by an evil witch broke my heart; like all children, she wanted to love her to the end and made excuses for her horrible mother. But their story raises an interesting topic, how mistakes in upbringing are passed down through generations. Rosa should take magnesium and restore her nervous system, because the impulsive desire to show violence is not so rare in people, but you cannot allow yourself to embody it
@@jdhdjdjeodkfjek6921 I'm personally on the side where Rosa genuinely loves Maria, but is unable to control herself due to her insecurities, trauma, and self-loathing. I don't think she means it when she says that Maria is a mistake, she's possibly giving herself reasons that her husband left her because of Maria, and not because of her own self. The last scene of episode 2 and one of the scenes in episode 8 where Rosa snaps when someone tries to hurt Maria, whether it's goats or Erika, and her distrust towards people Maria interacts with during episode 4, and at every scene where Rosa gets worried over Maria when she's on the rain.....Some people justify it as a sense of responsibility that Rosa is trying to inhabit but that really doesn't make sense in my opinion; considering how Rosa's hatred is mostly directed towards herself, and she's trying the best she can to be with people that don't give her the hope of being loved.
Everything about this: The video. The images. The song. The lyrics. It’s pure pain in the best way. “I’ll never stop screaming your name.” “Rest in peace, my sweet love…in peace.” I dedicate this comment to OUR beloved witch, Beatrice.
26/04/2024 It's late at night, I'm hungry, I'm thirsty, tired, sleep deprived, everything you could think of, but I couldn't stop reading, I had to read it to the end. Bought the VN all the way in 2021. Wish I had read it in it's entirety back then. Still, even if it took me two and a half years, I'm glad I still did it. It still feels weird to have ended it, I've been avoiding this day for quite some time. All things come to an end though, and Umineko's ending tied everything in such a neat way - i love it What a great game
I can't believe that the original video is gone... But I will left my mark with the same thing that I said in the original: "It took me 490 days to read this story. And a lot of things just happen in my life during this time. It's the greatest story ever written. Rest in Peace, my beloved Beatrice. 09/07/22"
In that pitch-black void where nothing could be seen, ...something sparkled. A warm, golden sparkle. It was... the original video. It floated down... into the void filled with many other deleted videos. Half buried among those videos... was a small box. It was the original comment section's cat box, which rested in peace here in UA-cam's abyss. The original video drifted down to rest on top of it... It was a story of the deep, deep depths of UA-cam. A small, almost trivial tale... of the dark and inky blackness... Where rests a faintly glowing deleted video...
As the original is gone, I will rewrite my old comment: Finished 05/08/2022 - Umineko is the epidemy of a masterfully written story that touched my very soul and resonated with me on such a deep level. This piece covered the most unique themes in the most unique way possible. I will never ever experience such a masterpiece again. From the plot, dialogue, characters, CG's and music everything was masterful. Even if the journey took me over 150 hours it was well worth it. The last episode, Twilight of the Golden Witch was a perfect conclusion with every piece coming together. Umineko is one of the series that peaks and dominates any genre it covers, be it mystery, phantasy or romance. This is truly one of the peaks of peaks I have read. Thank you Ryukishi07, for creating this tale, a small and fragile tale… Of the deepest depths of the darkest shadow, where a faintly glowing golden rose rests. ~Rest in peace, my beloved witch, beatrice.
11/09/2023 - 16/11/2023 Umineko is truly a masterpiece. It saved me from the pain of breakup I was going through when reading it. There is so many things this story changed inside of me in a good way. Rest in peace, my beloved witch, Beatrice.
01/11/23 - 05/13/23 Reading both the visual novel and the manga, I've come to learn so much from this series. All the characters are so rich in emotion and detailing, if you can truly see them with love. Surely Sayo, Battler, and Ange will be resurrected in my heart forever. Rest in peace, my beloved witch, Beatrice.
I don't know why, but the fact that the song is sung in Italian makes it all more beautiful and emotional for me. There's just something enchanting hearing anisongs sung in anything other than Japanese
Back then, after some time off my studies, I usually try to find some visual novel to read and man. This is a hidden gem and for you who just got on this journey. I hope you are reaching the golden land where everyone is waiting. Rest in peace, my beloved witch Beatrice. from 31/03/2016 to 16/05/2016 and forever for eternity.
UA-cam sucks for taking down the original video, I loved periodically reading through the comments and how umineko had affected people. Umineko changed my life, it was all I could think about for roughly an entire year and frankly I wouldn't have it any other way. I adore it so so much. (9/9/21)
Rest in peace Beatrice, your noble name shall be praised for centuries to come, Umineko is a true masterpiece, there are better written literatures and all, but umineko is the best one at interacting with the heart, that's my truth, whether it be red or golden, even as a person who doesn't believe in magic, umineko truly touched my heart, I symphasized with certain characters more or less near the earlier episodes, but in the end, i learnt to treat everyone equally, loving every character, and respecting each character's principles, existence and morals, Not only umineko, but higurashi as well, Thanks for making me who i am, May we meet again, when something cries.
The thing that umineko really hammered home for me was how important “heart” really is both in stories and in life. “Without love it can’t be seen” really is one of the most profound and mentality changing lessons I’ve gotten in my life. It’s like you said, it might not be the “objectively best thing ever written” or “objectively perfect” but when you love the series like I do, who gives a shit?
I took "Lambda" as my nickname back in around 2010 or so, after watching the anime adaptation. It took me so very many years to pick up the original Visual Novel do to me just being a god-awful reader. In 2022 I finally picked it up, and finished it at the summer of 2023. I picked up the manga adaptation on the SAME DAY I watched the end credits of the Visual Novel. Never has a work quite struck within me like Umineko did, and I can say that I picked my nickname well, even based on my image of Lambdadelta from the anime alone. Although there was one character that I resonated with so deeply that it really shook me to my very core, and while I can't speak their name, I'm pretty sure that people know based on the fact alone that I will not speak their name. Umineko can be enjoyed as it is, but for me it taught me so much about perception, assumptions, communication, and how "truth" even works. I feel like the work has so many very reasonable points to consider and take into oneself to learn from, to grow from. I know it's tacky and clichéd, but Umineko changed me as a person, in so many ways.
Started: July 15th, 2023 Ended: January 6th, 2024 Given the fact that I am posting this on April 16, 2024, I think it's pretty clear the effect this game has had on me lol. Reading Umineko was honestly a trial for me. I am a pretty poor reader, so it was difficult for me to comprehend what was going on sometimes, so I had mixed feelings about certain plot points, especially by the end. But, now that I am currently experiencing the series again through the manga, everything is now clicking into place. This game is a true masterpiece, telling a great story about love and understanding by challenging the reader to comprehend the mystery and its characters. I find myself thinking about Umineko everyday, and have even made good friends through Umineko discussions, even making a friend offline at a convention where I cosplayed Battler. Umineko means a whole lot to me, and I hope that others get to experience this life-changing game.
It is sad that the original comments got deleted. It was always nice seeing the game still alive and new people coming here after experiencing the story. Played 04/2021 - 12/2021, truly a beautiful tale. Rest in peace, my beloved witch, Beatrice.
19/09/2021 - 13/07/2023 Umineko has been life-changing in many different ways, and I could write for days about it. But I'm just gonna say. Thank you Ryukishi07. This has been the best story I have ever experienced in my life.
Although a couple of years have passed since I first finished this story, its influence on me remains strong. Rest in peace, my beloved witch, Beatrice.
I started reading the manga on 27/08/23 and finished on 29/08/23 Such an amazing piece of fiction i've read until this day I treasure the memory deep in the bottom of my heart "Without Love It Cannot Be Seen" Rest in peace, my beloved witch Beatrice
04/07/2023 -1/17/2024 Where do I start? at first I thought all the hype sorrounding this series was a complete joke a way for the fanbase to make themselves look like superior beings living in a different plane. But oh boy, now that Ive actually had the chance to finish this story I can now affirm that they were simply just being honest and so I'm speechless. If I could describe what I am feeling right now in one word it would be "fullfilled". "Watashi wa dare?" It is as if I've grasped the answer to this question for myself and have finally understood my purpose in this world, the fact that I've achieved this makes me feel quite happy. Umineko is a story like no other a masterpiece would not be enough to describe a series like this. All I can say is that every hour that I've put in this story was worth it and if you ask me If I would do it again, the answer is yes and thats in red. I will miss you for as long as I live, my beloved witch, Beatrice.
The greatest suffering in this world is knowing I will never experience this masterpiece again. Does anyone have any other good novels they could recommend me to fill this hole?
Higurashi and Ciconia, the other entries to the When They cry franchise. I'd recommend you to start with Higurashi, since Ciconia has some thinly unveiled spoilers for it
I have been reading it 2 years, I finished it yesterday, 27th May 2023. Rest in peace beloved witch Beatrice. But do not let us forget the others too. It's also Battler who has finally found peace, as well as Ange and the rest of the Ushiromiya family.
I finished the vn earlier this year (19/2/2023). It was a recommendation from a friend, she practically begged me to play it and even bought it for me. I was like "sure why not", best decision of my life. I cried, I laughed and I banged my head on my desk, that is the Umineko experience after all. My beloved witch Beatrice, you'll be engraved in my heart
Without love, one cannot see truth No man, nor witch by devil’s proof But love is fantasy, illusion, it cannot be - Yet the illusion’s gold truth will set the heart free
What has this monster of a story has done to me! I can no longer enjoy any other stories that much... it made me realize Umineko really should be preserved and be studied in the fictional word or something. It might take another long ass decade to come for another story that might as good as Umineko. Magic does exist. Rest in peace my beloved witch Beatrice. 01/01/2023 - 01/01/2024
Easily one of the greatest stories to grace the Earth. Despite what you might think about the prose, or the story being bloated at times Umineko is a story that really explores human perception, truth and love in a way that very few stories ever have.
07/11/22 Reading everyone's comments made me want to write my own. Words cannot fully describe how much Umineko has impacted me and changed my view of myself and the world around me. It's the only series I can say with full confidence that it genuinely changed my life. I always have to tell people that and clarify that I'm not overexaggerating lol. I find myself relating to Beatrice and Ange a lot, which makes the story hit very hard for me, considering everything. Among many things, one of the things that hits me the most is how they use escapism and delusion to transform the cruel world around them into something they can live and cope with. I don't see this explored a lot, and especially Ange's "imaginary friends" of the Seven Stakes was really refreshing to see, because it's not often that you see teens or adults in series having them. It's something that hits close to home, as growing up I suffered a similar type of loneliness that Beatrice and Ange did. I think what is impactful though is the parallel between the two. Beatrice wanted to live, experience love, and become a true "person", but ultimately gave herself up to her fate and lost her life. Meanwhile, Ange wanted to give her life up, but ultimately found meaning for herself and truly began to live. I do often find myself at both sides of those kinds of feelings, but ultimately I do want to live, which is why Ange's story is so inspiring, and Beatrice's story is so incredibly tragic I can't help but tear up or cry anytime I listen to this song. Thank you Ryukishi for making such an amazing work of fiction that has changed my life for the better. I don't know where I'd be right now if not for Umineko, it has helped me come to terms with a lot of aspects of myself I would shy away from and push away, but now I healthily embrace them and am working towards finding that meaning in my life. Rest in peace, my beloved witch, Beatrice. I will never forget your tale as long as I live.
I finished the vn only a few months ago so I didn't even get the chance to read the comments from the original video. Perhaps now we can say that these comments are locked forever... in the catbox?
25/4/2023 - 23/9/2023 Finally finishing the whole visual novel, what a journey it was. Definitely an unforgettable experience that I will treasure forever. May the truth rest inside the cat box forever.
I had upvoted every comment on the old video for the past 3 years. I didn't noticed this new video get re-upload until today when i search for it periodically. Hopefully it will be another 10 years before something happen again. Time for me to do my job again on this new video.
07.08.2022 - 06.04.2024 I've took a really big breaks from reading this novel, my first rush throung it was in a ~may 2023, i've literally speedrunned through first 3 episodes just because it was a really interesting to read! I've took a really big break (around 4-5 months) dropping the novel in the middle of the 6th episode and kinda regret it, because i think that my thoughts could got blurried a bit, but overall it doesn't affect the thoughts about the whole novel. I don't even think any other visual novel could even compete with Umineko in term of sending a message this deep. Of course, i like VN's i've read, but they're, just, feeling really different? Most of them telling an interesting story (Fate, for example), but Umineko feels not just about the plot..? I've cried (from what i can remember) in the end of the Arcueid route of Tsukihime, but my tears in the end of Umineko feels so special? I mean, i understand that Ange couldn't became a witch literally, but she really become one. I think if i was younger (i'm in a mid-20's) - i could take the main message of this novel incorrectly because of my small life experience, but now i think i can truly engrave it on my heart. Seeing all the fan content/memes at the top really makes fun, but at the bottom we all relieved the similar experience after finishing the novel, and that's what warms my heart. Cheers to everyone who've read my message, i like you! And remember - without love it cannot be seen.
20.01.2024 - 11.03.2024 This is one of those works that you wish would never end. I will remember this story forever. One of the greatest pieces of literature I've ever read. Rest in peace, my beloved witch, Beatrice.
VN: 5-6 years ago. Manga: 10/08/2023. At the beginning of this year, after getting my heart broken, for some reason I decided to give the manga a try. Used the sound manga app to make my experience closer to the VN and things that didn't hit close home on my VN read, they did whenever I was reading the manga (Maria's story, for instance, Ange's story aswell). I'm grateful to this story for teaching me the definition of magic, for teaching me to look forward, for teaching me to forgive, for teaching me to change my perspective and to have a warm heart towards the people I care about and try to be more understanding to those who are not that close. Thank you Ryukishi for this wonderful story. Thanks to the translators for taking their time and efforts into bringing to us this wonderful and beautiful story. In Spanish the verb to remember translates to "recordar" (Ricordare in Italian) which from a etymological perspective means to pass through the heart once again. Therefore: May this story not dwell in the depths of oblivion but rather in the depths of my heart. Descansa en paz, mi amada bruja, Beatrice.
Well since the og video got taken down I'll post this again: Started- 07/6/2022 Finished- 27/12/2022 One of the best works of fiction I've seen and will ever see, rest in peace... my beloved witch Beatrice
one of the best endings i've read to a work of fiction. the perfect mix of bitter and sweet, just absolutely beautiful started i believe on the 16th january 2024, ended on 29th february favourite moment was episode 7 tea party or the boat scene overall score: 9.7/10, will never forget this masterpiece
Copy pasted from what I said on a video showing the very end of Umineko: Battler Ushiromiya is my favorite character of all time, I honestly don’t think there could’ve been a more fitting conclusion for him as a character. Genuinely the greatest ending and plot twist ever written!
8/28/21 - 7/07/22 very sad that the original video got deleted. this visual novel has genuinely changed my life in so many ways, it’s become core to who i am as a person. the impact that beatrice and her story had on me as a person can’t even be described in words, i listen to this song still and start to tear up just reflecting on umineko as a whole and how i was able to experience such a beautiful story. it truly is a work of art unlike anything else. rest in peace, my beloved witch, beatrice.
@@Obliviouse27im late but it made me appreciate life and the time i have with others more than i ever did before, to cherish the people around me and try to be a more positive person overall and view people with love above all. i used to be a very jaded person but along with my own personal growth umineko has helped me come to love those around me and the world so much more even through its imperfections, and to view things with a more nuanced approach instead of the black and white view i used to have
Original video and comments may be gone... but I'm back again on October 6th, 2023 listening to this again, like I do every October 6th, and crying. Spread the word. Tell others to Read Umineko so that they too may experience the greatest work of fiction of all time.
24.03.2024 - 27.03.2024 For the me who had or have yet to move on. A reminder about a tragic story from beginning till the end so tragic yet so beautiful. "Without love you can't see"(spoken in red text).
Damn.... I just found out that the original was taken down and so along with the comments there :< thought it was still the same since it said it's 11 yrs old... Leaving my mark once again 06/22/23
Apprently they had this trend in the original video or something. Started - 29/12/23 Finished - 25/01/24 Would have finished days earlier if I didn't have a crippling hoi4 addiction (even though reading umineko is much, much more enjoyable than playing hoi4, but I'm pretty sure that's how addictions are.) Umineko secured third spot in my fiction list. And I just started higurashi when they cry. Would already be amazing if it was half as good as umineko. edit: I just noticed that the song doesn't only play in the ???? credits. but also when battler sinks. I'm pretty sure it glitched out the first time. But I'm pretty sure there was some kind of track playing in the background still. I don't really remember. edit2: I love Umineko more than I can bear. Seriously. edit3: 4 months later and I decided to take a listen to this again. Still very emotional but not as much as it used to be. I guess I'm starting to get over umi or something (haha, it's been 4 months, thank god i'm starting to get over it, that's the longest I've been obssessed over fiction)
It's funny, I've never cried this much while reading a story before. Weirdly, I didn't get that "empty" feeling I would normally get after finishing a good story either. It's such a tragically beautiful story with so many good messages. It doesn't shy away from tough topics, it doesn't include symbolism and philosophical discussions just to seem 'deep'. Umineko is the greatest love story, mystery, fantasy and tragedy I've ever read in my life and it will always have a special place in my heart. May you sleep peacefully in the catbox forever, my beloved witch, Beatrice.
04/22/2023 Not even reading 1 and a half parts, stopping to read fully read higurashi, taking a half year break, restarting early last year, and taking much longer to read the last 2 parts could diminish the impact the ending had on me. Throughout the past 3 years, this series has come to be a crucial part of my life, and has affected me in so many ways. With certainty, an umineko tattoo will be joining my higurashi one.
05.04.2023 Finished 2 weeks ago, its one of the best pieces of fiction I've ever read. Never thought I would relate to Kinzo but UUUOOOOOH BEAATORIIICHEEE
This feels like a landmark of Umineko fans, like that one checkpoint video. Sadly, I cannot remember when I started this life-changing tale except for the year, but it has truly been a miracle. 2021 - 9th August, 2023. 𝘙𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘱𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘦, 𝘮𝘺 𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘤𝘩, Bᴇᴀᴛʀɪᴄᴇ.
till date it's still the most beautiful song I have heard, rest in peace my most beloved witch Beatoriche. (So sad that the og vid got deleted, I loved reading the comments there, but no worries I am sure we will reach that level again, everyone loves this)
there’s something tragically poetic about all the original comments being erased, a decade of umineko fans giving their closing remarks on a series that for many of us changed our lives and is our favorite piece of fiction, all of it gone. just like the story of rokenjima the stories of all those people are now at the bottom of the ocean locked away in the catbox never to be seen again.
Oh you're right. I just saw it as sad like the way Higurashi got so popular and started raking in money so it keeps getting rewritten over and over to add more and more to what was actually a completed story. To me Umineko losing its past seems similar. However, you're right. Regardless of how you look at it, the metaphor is perfect. More and more is added, but the true past is gone forever, unknown. Whether for better or for worse the past is changed by our perceptions.

**smiles in Trollkastel**
- I'm about to destroy this piece's whole illusion of a witch 😏😈👹
OH MY GOSH I DIDNT EVEN REALIZE THIS WAS A DIFFERENT VIDEO WHEN I CLICKED ON IT.
oh man im REALLY hoping that its still recoverable somehow. There were so many comments, each one a different person who got to experience such a beautifully crafted story with such a tragic but equally bittersweet song. But regardless...
Rest in peace, my beloved witch, Beatrice.
I finished Umineko on May 30th 2020, and the ending lived rent free in my mind ever since.
There's something about the fact that Ange created a kind environment for orphans like herself, and recreating Beatrice's painting as the core of the room, so that Beatrice's existence continues to be remembered and in fond memories. And the fact that Battler could not rest in peace until he saw Ange happy, and most importantly, until he saw Beatrice again. It's all he ever needed, and it's the only things that made him fight for his life, it's his love for Beatrice, and his love for Ange.
Although the story at first disguises itself as cruel story about insufferable rich people, the story slowly delves deeper into their humanity, and that they're just victims from the start, victims that had no love left in their heart.
Episode 4 and 8 are the ones that struck deepest in my heart. Episode 4 revealed so much about Rosa and Maria. To me, it felt like Rosa's self loathing caused her to put her trauma in Maria, but Rosa loved Maria and was aware of what she was doing, so she tried as much as she can to stay away from Maria, and sleep with men as awful as her to validate her self-loathing. She didn't trust anyone at all and she viewed everyone as an enemy, she thought that locking Maria in the house with her beloved dolls was the only way for Maria to not grow up to become like her, or for Maria to live a happy life. And at the moment where Rosa tore off Sakutarou which made Maria snap, all the hope that Rosa had in herself was vanished, Maria was the only one keeping her hope in herself alive. Rosa snapped back at her in purgatorio and kept taunting Maria to torture her, because Rosa thought that's what she deserved, and what would give Maria peace of mind.
Ange and Eva's relationship was one of my favorites of all time, I love how despite all the hurt and loneliness Eva felt, especially with Ange pushing her hatred towards her, Eva wanted to protect Ange until the end, she did everything to protect her, and even in death, she continues to protect Ange.....she really loved her, from the bottom of her heart.
And the parallel between Ange and Beatrice was amazing, Beatrice gave up and cursed her fate, so she decided to leave everything to fate and stop trying to make a change. Ange was the same, until the last moment, where she stood up and decided to live for herself and everyone else, she found happiness in making the world a better place.
Natsuhi is such an amazing character as well, in episode 5, it made her actions in episode 1 much more meaningful, she wanted to protect the children as much as she could even if she had to become a demon, so she can "redeem" herself from pushing Sayo over the cliff, in a way it was her chance to become a good mother. And by the end of episode 1, she seemingly killed herself for both Sayo and Jessica's sake. And in episode 5, it felt like it was a way to show Natsuhi's utter loneliness, by killing off the people that will be on her side no matter what: Jessica and Krauss. But maybe Natsuhi was always lonely, and the moment she was forced to confess her sin.....she became free. she's an incredibly complicated character.
Also, the halloween theme being consistent with the message of the story was so well-written. Halloween is the time where the gap between the live and dead is thin, that was the case for Battler and Ange. Battler was dead, but he kept fighting back like a phoenix inside Tohya's body. Ange was alive, but she kept fighting for a reason to justify her reason to die. At the end, the gap between the life and death closed, Ange found beauty in life, and Battler accepted his death and reunited with everyone.
A story of this significance is so difficult to describe with words, the emotions it made all the fans including myself feel is irreplaceable and united, it's a kind story that believes in everyone's future.
Obviously alot of characters are not meant to be forgiven, but merely understood. My favorite characters are: Ange, Eva, Maria, Lambda, Natsuhi, and Battler.
To anyone who read this, who is your favorite character? and why?
nice writeup, imo is beatrice the best character is pretty obvious, great backstory, iconic moments, iconic character design, her relation with battler is great, and like at first glance beato is the main antagonist at the early episodes, but the more you progress, you feel there is something wrong with beato, her story is so tragic, but i am happy that she found peace with battler in the afterlife, also beato and battler is a really great couple very well written, without feeling too cringe.
i finished umineko yesterday, and is at this moment, my favorite story of my life, i cried so much at the end..
@@tecmangames69 Welcome new Umineko finisher! This is definitely a story I will never forget, I cried so much at the end as well.... Battler and Beatrice are geniunely one of the few couples I'm obsessed with, their love for each other is so sincere, and the ending was what made their love feel like something indescribable with words alone and is something that you can only truly feel after the journey. Although everyone has their own interpretations of the story, there's no denying how much Battler loved Beatrice....
Imo, even though Bern said that "this game will not have a happy ending", it felt like a happy ending to me. Ange lived happily and shared her happiness with people to make the world a better place, Battler rested in peace with his loved ones....
That red truth was so perfect because it proved that everyone has their own truth and can interpret things differently... This is such an amazing story.
@@wolfganggrimmer6120 is happy ending, but more an bittersweet one, the ushiromiyas except battler are dead, but ange accepted that, and moved on but she was always believed that someone could come back, and batter returned, and in the ending battler finnaly found peace, even though is in the afterlife, after all that tragedy the ushiromiyas, and definitely sayo and battler deserved that, amazing ending, umineko story is great, there are a lot of interpretations of the ending, and i even not found mine lol, but i like a lot the theory that ikuki is sayo.
Honestly, Rosa's story just shows how parents don't become "real adults" with the snap of a finger right after having children. She was unable to overcome her traumas and placed this responsibility on a man, hoping that she could become a good wife. And when she was left alone, with only a reminder of her "mistake" next to her, she began to take her anger and despair out on Maria. I don’t justify her, and Maria’s words about how her mother is being possessed by an evil witch broke my heart; like all children, she wanted to love her to the end and made excuses for her horrible mother. But their story raises an interesting topic, how mistakes in upbringing are passed down through generations. Rosa should take magnesium and restore her nervous system, because the impulsive desire to show violence is not so rare in people, but you cannot allow yourself to embody it
@@jdhdjdjeodkfjek6921 I'm personally on the side where Rosa genuinely loves Maria, but is unable to control herself due to her insecurities, trauma, and self-loathing. I don't think she means it when she says that Maria is a mistake, she's possibly giving herself reasons that her husband left her because of Maria, and not because of her own self. The last scene of episode 2 and one of the scenes in episode 8 where Rosa snaps when someone tries to hurt Maria, whether it's goats or Erika, and her distrust towards people Maria interacts with during episode 4, and at every scene where Rosa gets worried over Maria when she's on the rain.....Some people justify it as a sense of responsibility that Rosa is trying to inhabit but that really doesn't make sense in my opinion; considering how Rosa's hatred is mostly directed towards herself, and she's trying the best she can to be with people that don't give her the hope of being loved.
Everything about this:
The video.
The images.
The song.
The lyrics.
It’s pure pain in the best way.
“I’ll never stop screaming your name.”
“Rest in peace, my sweet love…in peace.”

It's late at night, I'm hungry, I'm thirsty, tired, sleep deprived, everything you could think of, but I couldn't stop reading, I had to read it to the end. Bought the VN all the way in 2021. Wish I had read it in it's entirety back then. Still, even if it took me two and a half years, I'm glad I still did it. It still feels weird to have ended it, I've been avoiding this day for quite some time.
All things come to an end though, and Umineko's ending tied everything in such a neat way - i love it
What a great game
I can't believe that the original video is gone...
But I will left my mark with the same thing that I said in the original:
"It took me 490 days to read this story. And a lot of things just happen in my life during this time. It's the greatest story ever written.
Rest in Peace, my beloved Beatrice.
09/07/22"
In that pitch-black void where nothing could be seen, ...something sparkled. A warm, golden sparkle.
It was... the original video.
It floated down... into the void filled with many other deleted videos. Half buried among those videos... was a small box.
It was the original comment section's cat box, which rested in peace here in UA-cam's abyss.
The original video drifted down to rest on top of it...
It was a story of the deep, deep depths of UA-cam.
A small, almost trivial tale... of the dark and inky blackness...
Where rests a faintly glowing deleted video...
Genius.
Oh my god... 😭😭
As the original is gone, I will rewrite my old comment:
Finished 05/08/2022 - Umineko is the epidemy of a masterfully written story that touched my very soul and resonated with me on such a deep level. This piece covered the most unique themes in the most unique way possible. I will never ever experience such a masterpiece again. From the plot, dialogue, characters, CG's and music everything was masterful. Even if the journey took me over 150 hours it was well worth it. The last episode, Twilight of the Golden Witch was a perfect conclusion with every piece coming together. Umineko is one of the series that peaks and dominates any genre it covers, be it mystery, phantasy or romance. This is truly one of the peaks of peaks I have read. Thank you Ryukishi07, for creating this tale, a small and fragile tale… Of the deepest depths of the darkest shadow, where a faintly glowing golden rose rests.
~Rest in peace, my beloved witch, beatrice.

Umineko is truly a masterpiece. It saved me from the pain of breakup I was going through when reading it. There is so many things this story changed inside of me in a good way.

Reading both the visual novel and the manga, I've come to learn so much from this series. All the characters are so rich in emotion and detailing, if you can truly see them with love. Surely Sayo, Battler, and Ange will be resurrected in my heart forever.
Rest in peace, my beloved witch, Beatrice.
I receive an spoiler due to this comment still want read the visual novel xD
Rest in peace, my beloved original video, I loved seeing the comments and other people's experiences but oh well...
I don't know why, but the fact that the song is sung in Italian makes it all more beautiful and emotional for me. There's just something enchanting hearing anisongs sung in anything other than Japanese
Really feels like its dedicated to beatrice as her origin is from Italy
Because Beatrice was italian

Back then, after some time off my studies, I usually try to find some visual novel to read and man. This is a hidden gem and for you who just got on this journey. I hope you are reaching the golden land where everyone is waiting. Rest in peace, my beloved witch Beatrice.
from 31/03/2016 to 16/05/2016 and forever for eternity.
UA-cam sucks for taking down the original video, I loved periodically reading through the comments and how umineko had affected people.
Umineko changed my life, it was all I could think about for roughly an entire year and frankly I wouldn't have it any other way. I adore it so so much. (9/9/21)
Rest in peace Beatrice, your noble name shall be praised for centuries to come,
Umineko is a true masterpiece, there are better written literatures and all, but umineko is the best one at interacting with the heart, that's my truth, whether it be red or golden, even as a person who doesn't believe in magic, umineko truly touched my heart,
I symphasized with certain characters more or less near the earlier episodes, but in the end, i learnt to treat everyone equally, loving every character, and respecting each character's principles, existence and morals,
Not only umineko, but higurashi as well,
Thanks for making me who i am,
May we meet again, when something cries.
Boat scene is the best thing I’ve ever seen in my life
The thing that umineko really hammered home for me was how important “heart” really is both in stories and in life. “Without love it can’t be seen” really is one of the most profound and mentality changing lessons I’ve gotten in my life. It’s like you said, it might not be the “objectively best thing ever written” or “objectively perfect” but when you love the series like I do, who gives a shit?
I cried SO MUCH with higurashi, but Umineko really changed my life to better, in order words, i love both. Thank you Ryukishi.

Rest in peace, my beloved witch beatrice
I took "Lambda" as my nickname back in around 2010 or so, after watching the anime adaptation. It took me so very many years to pick up the original Visual Novel do to me just being a god-awful reader. In 2022 I finally picked it up, and finished it at the summer of 2023. I picked up the manga adaptation on the SAME DAY I watched the end credits of the Visual Novel.
Never has a work quite struck within me like Umineko did, and I can say that I picked my nickname well, even based on my image of Lambdadelta from the anime alone. Although there was one character that I resonated with so deeply that it really shook me to my very core, and while I can't speak their name, I'm pretty sure that people know based on the fact alone that I will not speak their name.
Umineko can be enjoyed as it is, but for me it taught me so much about perception, assumptions, communication, and how "truth" even works. I feel like the work has so many very reasonable points to consider and take into oneself to learn from, to grow from. I know it's tacky and clichéd, but Umineko changed me as a person, in so many ways.
Started: July 15th, 2023
Ended: January 6th, 2024
Given the fact that I am posting this on April 16, 2024, I think it's pretty clear the effect this game has had on me lol. Reading Umineko was honestly a trial for me. I am a pretty poor reader, so it was difficult for me to comprehend what was going on sometimes, so I had mixed feelings about certain plot points, especially by the end. But, now that I am currently experiencing the series again through the manga, everything is now clicking into place. This game is a true masterpiece, telling a great story about love and understanding by challenging the reader to comprehend the mystery and its characters. I find myself thinking about Umineko everyday, and have even made good friends through Umineko discussions, even making a friend offline at a convention where I cosplayed Battler. Umineko means a whole lot to me, and I hope that others get to experience this life-changing game.
It is sad that the original comments got deleted. It was always nice seeing the game still alive and new people coming here after experiencing the story.
Played 04/2021 - 12/2021, truly a beautiful tale.

Where do I start? at first I thought all the hype sorrounding this series was a complete joke a way for the fanbase to make themselves look like superior beings living in a different plane. But oh boy, now that Ive actually had the chance to finish this story I can now affirm that they were simply just being honest and so I'm speechless. If I could describe what I am feeling right now in one word it would be "fullfilled". "Watashi wa dare?" It is as if I've grasped the answer to this question for myself and have finally understood my purpose in this world, the fact that I've achieved this makes me feel quite happy. Umineko is a story like no other a masterpiece would not be enough to describe a series like this. All I can say is that every hour that I've put in this story was worth it and if you ask me If I would do it again, the answer is yes and thats in red. I will miss you for as long as I live, my beloved witch, Beatrice.
The greatest suffering in this world is knowing I will never experience this masterpiece again. Does anyone have any other good novels they could recommend me to fill this hole?
Higurashi and Ciconia, the other entries to the When They cry franchise.
I'd recommend you to start with Higurashi, since Ciconia has some thinly unveiled spoilers for it
The house in fata morgana, very good for now even if i have not finished it yet I can assure you that is good !

Hadn't even realized that this isn't the original one with millions of views before reading comments. I hope it gets restored back somehow.
I finished the vn earlier this year (19/2/2023). It was a recommendation from a friend, she practically begged me to play it and even bought it for me. I was like "sure why not", best decision of my life. I cried, I laughed and I banged my head on my desk, that is the Umineko experience after all. My beloved witch Beatrice, you'll be engraved in my heart
you have the best friend ever
Without love, one cannot see truth
No man, nor witch by devil’s proof
But love is fantasy, illusion, it cannot be -
Yet the illusion’s gold truth will set the heart free
What has this monster of a story has done to me! I can no longer enjoy any other stories that much... it made me realize Umineko really should be preserved and be studied in the fictional word or something. It might take another long ass decade to come for another story that might as good as Umineko.
Magic does exist.
Rest in peace my beloved witch Beatrice.
01/01/2023 - 01/01/2024
Easily one of the greatest stories to grace the Earth. Despite what you might think about the prose, or the story being bloated at times Umineko is a story that really explores human perception, truth and love in a way that very few stories ever have.
07/11/22
Reading everyone's comments made me want to write my own. Words cannot fully describe how much Umineko has impacted me and changed my view of myself and the world around me. It's the only series I can say with full confidence that it genuinely changed my life. I always have to tell people that and clarify that I'm not overexaggerating lol.
I find myself relating to Beatrice and Ange a lot, which makes the story hit very hard for me, considering everything. Among many things, one of the things that hits me the most is how they use escapism and delusion to transform the cruel world around them into something they can live and cope with. I don't see this explored a lot, and especially Ange's "imaginary friends" of the Seven Stakes was really refreshing to see, because it's not often that you see teens or adults in series having them. It's something that hits close to home, as growing up I suffered a similar type of loneliness that Beatrice and Ange did.
I think what is impactful though is the parallel between the two. Beatrice wanted to live, experience love, and become a true "person", but ultimately gave herself up to her fate and lost her life. Meanwhile, Ange wanted to give her life up, but ultimately found meaning for herself and truly began to live. I do often find myself at both sides of those kinds of feelings, but ultimately I do want to live, which is why Ange's story is so inspiring, and Beatrice's story is so incredibly tragic I can't help but tear up or cry anytime I listen to this song.
Thank you Ryukishi for making such an amazing work of fiction that has changed my life for the better. I don't know where I'd be right now if not for Umineko, it has helped me come to terms with a lot of aspects of myself I would shy away from and push away, but now I healthily embrace them and am working towards finding that meaning in my life.
Rest in peace, my beloved witch, Beatrice. I will never forget your tale as long as I live.

Umineko is peak fiction. You can't change my mind
07.08.2022 - 06.04.2024
I've took a really big breaks from reading this novel, my first rush throung it was in a ~may 2023, i've literally speedrunned through first 3 episodes just because it was a really interesting to read! I've took a really big break (around 4-5 months) dropping the novel in the middle of the 6th episode and kinda regret it, because i think that my thoughts could got blurried a bit, but overall it doesn't affect the thoughts about the whole novel. I don't even think any other visual novel could even compete with Umineko in term of sending a message this deep. Of course, i like VN's i've read, but they're, just, feeling really different? Most of them telling an interesting story (Fate, for example), but Umineko feels not just about the plot..? I've cried (from what i can remember) in the end of the Arcueid route of Tsukihime, but my tears in the end of Umineko feels so special? I mean, i understand that Ange couldn't became a witch literally, but she really become one. I think if i was younger (i'm in a mid-20's) - i could take the main message of this novel incorrectly because of my small life experience, but now i think i can truly engrave it on my heart. Seeing all the fan content/memes at the top really makes fun, but at the bottom we all relieved the similar experience after finishing the novel, and that's what warms my heart. Cheers to everyone who've read my message, i like you! And remember - without love it cannot be seen.

This is one of those works that you wish would never end. I will remember this story forever. One of the greatest pieces of literature I've ever read.
Rest in peace, my beloved witch, Beatrice.
they are finally together in the golden land :,)
VN: 5-6 years ago. Manga: 10/08/2023.
At the beginning of this year, after getting my heart broken, for some reason I decided to give the manga a try. Used the sound manga app to make my experience closer to the VN and things that didn't hit close home on my VN read, they did whenever I was reading the manga (Maria's story, for instance, Ange's story aswell).
I'm grateful to this story for teaching me the definition of magic, for teaching me to look forward, for teaching me to forgive, for teaching me to change my perspective and to have a warm heart towards the people I care about and try to be more understanding to those who are not that close. Thank you Ryukishi for this wonderful story. Thanks to the translators for taking their time and efforts into bringing to us this wonderful and beautiful story.
In Spanish the verb to remember translates to "recordar" (Ricordare in Italian) which from a etymological perspective means to pass through the heart once again. Therefore:
May this story not dwell in the depths of oblivion but rather in the depths of my heart.

started i believe on the 16th january 2024, ended on 29th february
favourite moment was episode 7 tea party or the boat scene
overall score: 9.7/10, will never forget this masterpiece
One of the greatest endings to one of the greatest stories ever written 🗿🍷
Rest in peace my most beloved witch Beatrice 🙏💔🥀
Copy pasted from what I said on a video showing the very end of Umineko: Battler Ushiromiya is my favorite character of all time, I honestly don’t think there could’ve been a more fitting conclusion for him as a character. Genuinely the greatest ending and plot twist ever written!
I miss the comment section of the og video
18 Feb to 30th May, this was a wild ride for sure, loved this vn and will continue to love it ^^

very sad that the original video got deleted. this visual novel has genuinely changed my life in so many ways, it’s become core to who i am as a person. the impact that beatrice and her story had on me as a person can’t even be described in words, i listen to this song still and start to tear up just reflecting on umineko as a whole and how i was able to experience such a beautiful story. it truly is a work of art unlike anything else.
rest in peace, my beloved witch, beatrice.
How did it impact you as a person? I am curious to know :)
@@Obliviouse27im late but it made me appreciate life and the time i have with others more than i ever did before, to cherish the people around me and try to be a more positive person overall and view people with love above all. i used to be a very jaded person but along with my own personal growth umineko has helped me come to love those around me and the world so much more even through its imperfections, and to view things with a more nuanced approach instead of the black and white view i used to have
Monday 24th July 2023, Rest in peace my beloved witch.
Umineko❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
3:33 is the most vibing part for me. OMG its so good and healingggg

I haven't finished the Umineko manga (I'm still in EP 6) but hearing this song just tears me up
Sleep well, my beloved witch, Beatrice
Original video and comments may be gone... but I'm back again on October 6th, 2023 listening to this again, like I do every October 6th, and crying.
Spread the word. Tell others to Read Umineko so that they too may experience the greatest work of fiction of all time.
I was turned onto this song by my Chinese girl when I was in Ji’an in 2019. Five years later it still soothes my soul. Such a masterful masterpiece!
Rip original video...Rip Golden Witch

For the me who had or have yet to move on. A reminder about a tragic story from beginning till the end so tragic yet so beautiful. "Without love you can't see"(spoken in red text).
finished today
my heart cries listening to this song
rest in peace, my beloved witch, beatrice.
Damn.... I just found out that the original was taken down and so along with the comments there :< thought it was still the same since it said it's 11 yrs old...
Leaving my mark once again

Apprently they had this trend in the original video or something.
Started - 29/12/23
Finished - 25/01/24
Would have finished days earlier if I didn't have a crippling hoi4 addiction (even though reading umineko is much, much more enjoyable than playing hoi4, but I'm pretty sure that's how addictions are.)
Umineko secured third spot in my fiction list. And I just started higurashi when they cry. Would already be amazing if it was half as good as umineko.
edit: I just noticed that the song doesn't only play in the ???? credits. but also when battler sinks. I'm pretty sure it glitched out the first time. But I'm pretty sure there was some kind of track playing in the background still. I don't really remember.
edit2: I love Umineko more than I can bear. Seriously.
edit3: 4 months later and I decided to take a listen to this again. Still very emotional but not as much as it used to be. I guess I'm starting to get over umi or something (haha, it's been 4 months, thank god i'm starting to get over it, that's the longest I've been obssessed over fiction)
It's funny, I've never cried this much while reading a story before. Weirdly, I didn't get that "empty" feeling I would normally get after finishing a good story either. It's such a tragically beautiful story with so many good messages. It doesn't shy away from tough topics, it doesn't include symbolism and philosophical discussions just to seem 'deep'. Umineko is the greatest love story, mystery, fantasy and tragedy I've ever read in my life and it will always have a special place in my heart.
May you sleep peacefully in the catbox forever, my beloved witch, Beatrice.

Not even reading 1 and a half parts, stopping to read fully read higurashi, taking a half year break, restarting early last year, and taking much longer to read the last 2 parts could diminish the impact the ending had on me. Throughout the past 3 years, this series has come to be a crucial part of my life, and has affected me in so many ways. With certainty, an umineko tattoo will be joining my higurashi one.
Everyone is guilty and no one survives. Only when hatred has been forgotten can people think of love again.

Finished 2 weeks ago, its one of the best pieces of fiction I've ever read.
Never thought I would relate to Kinzo but UUUOOOOOH BEAATORIIICHEEE
Umineko is this an anime? ?
@@rinasanndlorine5338 It has an anime but it never got finished. Play the visual novel instead. You can find it if you look up Umineko project
Okey thanks ^_^
Kinzo is the biggest POS character in this story
@@kylestyyle987 Sure bro Kyrie and Rudolf totally do not exist
Rest, rest in peace in the illusion that you created. My beloved witch beatrice

It's okay to leave the past in the past, but that doesn't mean you have to forget it. Keep it with you always. Forever in your heart.
Rest in peace, my beloved witch, Beatrice. 💛
This feels like a landmark of Umineko fans, like that one checkpoint video.
Sadly, I cannot remember when I started this life-changing tale except for the year, but it has truly been a miracle.
