"...a story should be like a roller coaster. That is to say before writing a really cruel scene, I have to lift the people's spirits, for example, with a fun scene... Before writing a scene of pure despair, we must go through scenes of hope. And indeed, when I write, all of this amuses me very much."

Umineko is a story I believe for those with no standards, or rather I should say, its for those with very different standards from me.

There were many times where I found myself quite bored I was just reading to progress, not because I was interested which isnt a healthy way to experience anything. I think Umineko is very lacking in atmosphere, compelling characters, and class. The manga is terrible, no ...
