I hope they don't make an alternate ending...even if DEEN doesn't anime Chiru, it is still possible another studio will someday. They shouldn't butcher the ending for selfish reasons like that.

From what we see in the preview, it doesn't look like there will be an alternate ending.

Unlikely; The VNs are ongoing and nowhere near finished. If Chiru is animated, it won't be before 2011.

As an anime-only watcher, I'm really psyched for this episode. It looks promising, and I really want to know how it'll end.
I hope Umineko's score will be an 8 or higher.
But I guess that's not possible anymore. D:

We can always sit back and hope - I know I will.
I just hope they won't butcher that certain little scene with Battler and Beatrice (If you know what scene I mean, then I guess you know how I feel). If that goes alright, then I don't care what happens in the rest of the episode.

Looks like DEEN pulled out a good stuff (judging from the screenshots and comments). They kept most of it, except Battler checking the bodies.

The other one was CG though. I would say the FSN one looked stupid, while this one just looks cartoony.

Hm. I do wonder if they didn't want to completely ruin the "fuck yeah stakes for the witch!!!" mood completely by spoiling that it's a



I mean, VN readers, except shippers, did enjoy the beating (partly because of dreamenddischarger, of course) before.



However, I really hope the thread missed one thing the anime hopefully had.

They kept the tea parties!

um...lack of red in certain places =/

I thought the last scene with Battler/Beato was done really well. I wish they had hugged, but meh.

There's almost no red truths left.
A still image of Battler with only mouth moving for several seconds also shows DEEN's lazyness.
Beato wasn't chained.

Edit2:
(Kanon related red truths inside the spoiler tags)


Edit3: My final score for Umineko: 2/10

It wasn't terrible but it wasn't good either. And they never used dreamenddischarger or mortal stampede even though they were on the OST. I don't get it...

There's almost no red or blue which makes that whole scene pointless. And they completely skipped Battler finding all the bodies. I'm not happy with how Ange died either.

6/10 is my final score for Umineko.
