I can't believe that the fan made end was better than DEEN's work.
For the anime-only viewers, watch this : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juEkoLXXoxo&fmt=18

Loved. It.
This is one of the best animes I've ever seen!
9,5/10 which'll become a 9/10.
Stupid MAL with their non-decimal scores. D:

Oh, and it's an instant fav.

I mentioned I'd post this back in the previous thread to show anime viewers a glimpse of just how much of a troll Bern really is
This here is a series of vids someone made using the VN sprites and the small sidestory Ryukishi released at t comiket as a TIP. It's as Canon as Lambdadelta's diary which some might know and it gives you a glimpse of the real Bern.

DEEN seems to have done well for the most part with this episode. Waiting for raw for final conclusions....


......They done well BUT use the right music for scenes, no Dreamenddischarger or Dir. Ange's death seemed weak, a bunch of red and blue text was missing and the ending before the "????" seemed abrupt. What the hell DEEN??

At least they used Endless Nine, "Thank You for Being Born", and Goldenslaughter (in place of Dreamenddischarger), but damnit, that's just not good enough. Yeah, 6/10 for me also. Disappointing ending, but I guess this is the best DEEN has to offer.

6/10 is my final score for Umineko.


Yeah, that's what I gave it too.

So I suppose we can all safely say that there is no anime?

I skimmed quickly towards the episode, can't really comment properly.

No burgers.
No 'dreamenddischarger', but we got 'endless nine'.
And 'goldenslaughter'.
Out of all the things, dragon Kinzo was left it.
Battler is an angsty fuck as usual, didn't give a toss about Beatrice.
Beatrice is made out to be the bad guy, as usual.
No hug, instead we get a scowling Battler saying, 'I'll kill you'.
No emotional confronting.
No, 'MY GOLDEN WITCH'.
No, 'kill me now'.
No troll faces.

Time to bomb DEEN, there is no Umineko anime.

I don't think it will reach Tsukihime levels in the hatedom.

For one, the designs in the anime were actually UGLIER than it's VN, instead of more bishonen/moe like in Umineko (this may seem subjective, but I assure you on first sight it's objective).

For two, they adapted the most boring route and the hints to other paths were extremely bad, while Umineko had only one route to adapt and didn't particularly change anything egregious (ommit, maaaaaybe).

For three, even people that hadn't read the VN could find it extremely boring (nothing happened for 4 episodes in a row), while Umineko is, from Anime-only viewers, at most confusing not boring.

For four, I don't think the Umineko fanbase is that dumb. :p

For five and last, JC Staff did Tsukihime, not Studio DEEN. xD

Ok boys and girls time for the serious discussion of this. The first half got me scared.....Ange what in the world happened to her being all bloodied (highly disturbing and very sad....especially with all that blood/tears)
...don't tell it's because she broke some rules. I do admit Ange's magic of bringing Sakutaro sure screwed over Beatrice by having Maria leave the world where she was in. Ange....T_T why? What was up with Battler's soul? It got stolen? Huh? The second half was EPIC! Battler beating Beatrice with the blue truth and spears with a big pillar spike from the ground ultimately killing Beatrice! Yes x 1 million! Take that Beatrice! Ha!
She is gone! Gone is her body but her soul still escapes?
That is strange. What is up with the ED? Bernkastel and Lambdadelta? Together in some room with sweets and a bed? Bernkastel has a cat tail? Hein?
So is all solved or does Battler have to kill Bernkastel and Lambdadelta now? Really strange ED....guessing it's not over yet. I want second season and see more blood of Bernkastel and Lambdadelta now. Most exciting episode! This series goes down with a solid 9! Ha! Amazing was it not? Still epic Beatrice blood gore death! My satisfaction of that is 100%!

To kill her Battler needs to solve the last mystery. Though in the novel it's implied that even with that Beato still has at least one more crushing move to use.

Nothing was solved. All of battler's blue truth except for the one about Kinzo was way off.

Well, I didn't expect much of the last episode but surprisingly I somehow liked it. Dreamenddischarger was sort of chaotic in the novel(although the anime version seems to be cleaner)therefore I don't mind that DEEN didn't use it in the anime.

That being said I found the whole adaption more than dissapointing. I'm not saying that because many story elements were left out but rather because it didn't entertain me how it should have. Plus I didn't feel any kind of atmosphere/feeling and the emotions of the characters were just painfully bad in many scenes.

So in the end I can't give it a better rating than 6/10.
