I’m sincerely curious to watch you playing Chiru, I have not yet listened to the podcasts.

Episode 5 Rolls on!
This Episode’s focus on Natsuhi early on was really great; I thought it was a fantastic was of introducing Chiru as its own coherent package, as well as doing a great job of reframing Natsuhi’s actions in earlier episodes, particularly Ep1. That final scene of Bern confirming in red that Natsuhi was alone in the end also speaks really well to some of the themes that this Episode starts to hammer home and I think it’s a fantastic setup.
It’s kinda nice to see someone else at the helm (no both sides of the gameboard) but my goodness these witches are SAVAGE. I just want sweet baby Natsuhi to be happy, and it looks like that has been certainly denied. We’re going to be seeing a lot of her in this episode so I hope you like her! I know I certainly had a rollercoaster ride playing her~
I can still hear…
the roar…
of the sea…
This is a fun chapter. It kinda sets up all the the adults for the rest of the episode, and mayhaps provides some clues as to the nature of this gameboard~
Also, Lambda gets to test out her acting skills! Yaaaaaaayyyy. As Lambda’s number 1 fan I just want to say how happy I am to see her finally getting the spotlight. She may not ever dethrone Beato as the one true #bestgirl but if she doesn’t make it into the top 3 in the character polls I’ll be disappointed.
ALSO ALSO. My maniacal plan to put us on the opposite side of as many ships as possible has finally been revealed! SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP SHIP!
OOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ERIKA HYPE GET YOUR BUTTS READY
This is the episode of the playthrough where we can finally answer the real questions: How much of what we’re shown should we be taking literally? What is the line between fantasy and reality? Will Ben be able to dodge questions indefinitely or will he crack under pressure? FIND OUT SOON!

More theory work gets put to the test today. This was really exciting for me since it was the closest evidence we’ve had that my epitaph theory might be correct so far. Also Battler seeing Kinzo was good reinforcement for the idea that he is an accomplice. Here’s hoping it all works out in the end
Ima be real, playing this many characters one after the other with relatively similar voices (Beatrice Natsuhi BRonove and Virgilia) nearly broke me. SHOUTOUT TO MY PERFECT VOICE ALLOCATION PLAN.
Also hey, the epitaph got solved again. It’s a good thing we have the world’s biggest idiot to handle all the fame on this one!
I really enjoy the talks we get with Virgilia in this episode. Chiru ups the ante in terms of action so it’s nice to have some chill talks in between.
…also arguably your reaction to the lessons Virgilia is trying to teach will make or break your enjoyment of Chiru as well as how deeply you can appreciate it. It’s really about the heart after all <3
The infamous ‘knock’ riddle is simultaneously one of the most interesting and pointless puzzles that Ryukishi puts forward to us. I’m glad that Felix here decided to tackle it, I basically skimmed it the first time i went through and didn’t give too much thought to it. Still, as usual you can learn a lot about the setup of the board by figuring out what the solution is
I came to say that your voice to the man of 19 years ago is perfect. Better than the original. I felt like was really a psycho on the phone. lol
EH?!! There’s no way that thick-headed @Jokrono could ever begin to understand the masterpiece which is Umineko!!
Just kidding, love you bois, I’ll catch up as soon as I can
@JmTrad Thanks! I was surprised how positive of a response that voice got, honestly, but because it’s a character voice I’ve had a lot of experience with I have a lot better emotive range with it which is why I think it’s working.
@TsukiyoAlex love u 2 enjoy catching up
ONWARDS IN EP5!
