2009 in Review, Part 1

First part of my 2009 in Review article. Only shows I’ve completed watching are in this list, divided in to four tiers of descending “accumulative entertainment value”.
End of the Golden Witch

Finally, after 4 months of waiting, the noble people of Witch-Hunt has delivered! Episode 5 of Umineko just 48 hours before C77 starts was kept to, amazingly!
Before reading, be warned this is a seriously long post (72 screencaps) and it has spoilers, so if you haven’t read the VN yet, be forewarned!
Umineko anime ends
Hurr… that wasn’t too bad for a final episode, discounting the stupid CG DRAGON Kinzo turned in to. They pretty much captured most of the important points of the Tea Party, including the small bombs (LOL). Obviously though, they failed to capture the epicness of the Red and Blue word spamming properly. I mean, Beato barely fought back and just pretty much wanted to let him kill her from the start! Also, they totally forgot about the fourth game. Like, LOL WUT?
As for Ange’s death… could’ve pull that off better. I am a bit sad they didn’t put in the burger joke at the Ura Tea Party lol.
Overall, I’d say Umineko anime was pretty much another adaptation failure, but at least it got more people interested in the series! I can bravely say I am one of them.
Ahhh, I can’t wait for Episode V!
Oh Sakutaro you stud!

Oh Sakutaro you STUD! Having all the Seven Sisters wrapped around your cuddly-bunny buns!

Too bad it doesn’t work on QUALITY MOTHER OF THE YEAR, Rosa. I’d so like to give her a mug with BESTEST MOTHER EVER written on it like sagematt suggested once.
Finally obligatory SEACATS ANIME IS THE QUALITY ANIME OF THE YEAR. Thank you.
Beatroll’ed?

You anime-only watchers sure missed out on some really good shit now that this got spoiled. Seriously, the impact of this part when it hits you in the game is utterly devastating. I’ll admit, the anime art is much more fear-inducing though.
How Lia vs Beato should have been
Geez, DEEN, how much more can you fuck up the story? At this rate, you might as well skip the Rudolf and Kyrie showdowns and jump straight to the Tea Party. YOU’VE ALREADY DONE THAT MUCH. (╬ ಠ益ಠ)(╬ ಠ益ಠ)(╬ ಠ益ಠ)(╬ ಠ益ಠ)(╬ ಠ益ಠ)
To the Umineko anime viewers, this was how the Lia vs Beato battle should have been. And this is the superior version. I DARE SAY IT.
Sigh, I was an idiot for even expecting something.
Angeburgers
This past few days I was wondering what’s with the Angeburger meme…. then I remembered this;


LAMBDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!

Alliance of the Golden Witch, Twitter-style

Well, that took a lot longer than I expected to finish, but here I am, Alliance of the Golden Witch finally read through.
Doing it Twitter-style again, albeit, it’s quite long LOL.
Banquet of the Golden Witch, Twitter-style

This will be an extremely spoilerish post about Umineko Episode 3, Banquet of the Golden Witch. It contains my thoughts about the story, as I proceeded through it, done in a twitter-like style. Anyways it was a really great arc. Really great arc. Don’t read if you don’t want to get spoiled…. though it’s pretty unlikely you will understand my ramblings unless you’ve read through the episode yourself already.
