I’m kind of obsessed with the reading of Eva-Beatrice being Eva’s inner child bc she’s still mean as hell. Like yeah this is the girlhood that growing up as a socialite in a deeply misogynistic household stole from me. I am still kind of a cunt tho that’s unrelated

rewatched the scene last night where jessica talks to kyrie in episode 6 before their fight and it really is fucking hilarious the extent to which kyrie is completely unaware of how insane she comes across in that specific conversation

jessica is like "is it wrong to pursue my relationship if it would mean other people i care about would have to break up..." and this woman tells her teenage niece about how rudolf was sleeping around but he wouldn't get attached just from fucking someone so she had to be more sly to manipulate him

gets done saying this and then goes "sorry am i boring you?" and when jessica, visibly mortified, says "n-no, but -" she's like "great. so anyway i was going to kill asumu but it worked out because she croaked on her own anyway! all this to say love is really about who you're willing to kill and die for. don't be careless with your heart. does that help?" and it is only at this point that kyrie sincerely goes "okay maybe that was a bit much."

as much as this is kind of The scene that makes it explicit that kyrie is a decently successful manipulator and certifiable yandere for her 3/10 husband, it somehow also completely demolishes any concept of kyrie as a person who is capable of reading the goddamn room despite her analytical prowess. what an incredible character

there is genuine tragedy to kyrie's character i should probably mull over one of these days. like the whole context of the family she comes from probably does a lot to inform her character. but i have so much appreciation for even the simple facts of ushiromiya kyrie. this woman has spent so much of her life obsessively devoted to baby trapping the most 3/10 guy you'll ever meet and it's not ever really made clear what she sees in him

i think a lot about when i was watching a playthrough of kyrie and jessica's conversation in ep6 and one of the youtube comments was "well i guess i like kyrie less now." and to this day i'm baffled. you like kyrie less after one of the funniest things she ever does?

sure it's when she goes from "a bit much but she seems to have it under control" to "oh she's fucking crazy" but like. she reveals this in the funniest possible context. jessica fully did not ask about all this and she's visibly mortified by the amount of detail in kyrie's answer to a fairly simple question. at the very same time kyrie reveals herself as a machiavellian yandere manipulator mastermind she is also being so deeply socially unaware that she thinks she's boring jessica with all this talk of preparing to murder asumu so she could have rudolf to herself

six episodes in kyrie reveals to her 18 year old niece almost entirely unprovoked that she, the apparent previous title holder for Most Normal Umineko Parent, actually might be the single most unhinged person on this entire island. and you like her LESS for this?

I don't think I can convay in words how important this scene is to me man

I love that Ange is letting herself play into the game board. I love that Eva knows that this will end and Ange will probably learn/accept the truth she shielded her from. I love that Eva knows and accepts that she deeply destroyed and hurt Ange because she couldn't handle her own grief. I love that she reflects on all of this and you can see so clearly in her face that she wants in this moment to give Ange what she should have all along. I love that Eva despite how Ange sees her and despite her failings and harm to her still wants to protect her from the truth of what happened so she can remember her parents as loving people and not monsters. I'm obsessed with the grief and regret and love in this scene I'm gonna be sick. I love that love persists despite the horrors. I love that even though Eva was hated by Ange she still loved her enough to protect her even though her shield became a spiked casket that trapped Ange in rage and grief. This scene makes me so ill I love it so much.

becoming the first person to date ushiromiya rosa ethically by finding a kakera where she says she doesn't have any kids first

drawing fanart is so funny because it forces you to really look closely at character design details you might gloss over otherwise. do you know how mad i was when i first drew lion and i realized lion has two one-winged eagles and their placements are the same as shannon's and kanon's

My favorite thing about Natsuhi is that she will not back down from any position ever. Hell will freeze over before she admits that she was wrong

My favorite example of this is episode 5. She argues that Kinzo is alive just as vehemently as she argues that she loves her husband, and when she eventually does break down and confess it’s “okay fine I did the murders, is that what you want to hear??” Which she didn’t do, but she doesn’t confess to Kinzo being dead despite not really having any reason to keep it hidden?? Like the conclusion Erika draws with the assumption that Kinzo is alive is so much worse for the honor of everyone involved but Natsuhi WILL NOT BACK DOWN EVER. I’m so fucking obsessed with her

Natsuhi 🤝 Kyrie

Defining themselves based around a man who is NOT WORTH ALL THAT OMG

Kyrie literally stewing in hatred and envy for 18 years rather than moving on from a guy who clearly only sees her as a tool

Natsuhi calling Kinzo father and basing her entire life around pleasing him and protecting his image when he never shows her kindness even once

It’s not like any man would be worth building their whole sense of selves around but c’mon. Rudolf and Kinzo????
