When They Cry

If Umineko is "When they cry - 3", what is "When they cry - 2"? Kai? Rei? Daybreak? (80.86.251.72 10:42, 17 July 2007 (UTC))[reply]

I too was wondering this. I'm pretty sure that the Higurashi series is first in the series, but since there was nothing between that and this one, I really can't say what was number two; Kai, Rei, and Daybreak don't seem to be it.--十八 11:35, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni = WHEN THEY CRY

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai = WHEN THEY CRY 2

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei = WHEN THEY CRY 2+

Umineko no Naku Koro ni = WHEN THEY CRY 3 Moogy^(talk) 09:29, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So, baiscly, Rei is basicly Higurashi Final Mix/Subsistance, to put it in relitive terms?--Conan-san 15:56, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No. Rei is a fandisc with 3 original arcs and some bonus material. Moogy^(talk) 18:18, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Engine?

What Engine does Umineko run on? Cause I don't see any mention of nscripter anywhere. -- Psi edit 16:34, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It does indeed run on nscripter; you can add in a note if you wish.--十八 20:48, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Further proven in the credits. RasAlmond (talk) 13:48, 9 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Shannon and Kanon

Can we really extrapole they are siblings? Considering their origins as orphans explained in episode 1, it might be a simple "sibling like" relationship, but absolutely not blood relative wise. The fact Shannon commented that "he just consider me as a older sister" and the explanations behind the servants of the Fukunon House are kinda pointing to the non blood relative status. Klashikari (talk) 22:06, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Any speculation would be considered original research and would not be able to be included.--十八 00:00, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, that's why I pointed that issue, as there isn't any solid confirmation that these 2 characters are really siblings. I believe it would be better to leave it to person interpretation. Yet again, various lines in the visual novel states "kanon loved her as a sister". In any case, I think it would be rather logical to remove the sibling information in the article. Klashikari (talk) 10:00, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Right you are; I've removed the bits about them being siblings.--十八 10:42, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Satan

Isn't Satan the devil? Why it's called a demon here? (75.157.183.134 (talk) 09:20, 28 May 2008 (UTC))[reply]
