The level of lore and character depth of Umineko is higher than Superhuman, it's the strongest point of Umineko. Especially since is a finished story, when you look back you feel it was worth. It also have their shonen moments but in this aspect Superhuman is better.

But please, don't watch the anime. They butchered the story too much and only made half of the story because it was poorly received. And is indeed bad. The VN is the best experience, if you don't have time the manga is the better alternative.

Alright, mine was a genuine question as I never actually even knew of it. I'm happy to hear of its existence, might try it out some time

Ryukishi07 finished all 8 chapters of Umineko in 3 years and he also wrote all alone. I think the entire Superhuman until now is at least 2 chapters of Umineko worth of text. But yeah WeirdWorld is above average when is about work pace in a VN, especially since he draw a lot of nice art for the game too.
I meant more in regards to the WEG genre, where devs taking 3 years to add a scene is a running joke, though I guess it feels odd to put Superhuman there given that a lot of people read (unironically) it for the plot.

Yes, that scene with Ella is a 4th wall joke referring to the player. Hence why there's six * there. I never got why people thought it was censoring something in game. It was pretty direct at telling us outside of the game to train or we're going to die in the Kenny fight.

There are at least 3 different lines so far by count. And I'm pretty sure he said he wants Jared dead at one point. There were 4 *

Huh, a comic that's similar you say? I may have to check that out. Thanks for the info.
I don't know if I would say similar in that way. Just that particular scene with the fourth wall break. Otherwise, Death is just vibing and doing her job as death of all things. She's not plotting or anything like Ella. They're very different in storytelling.

Guys lets get our Mid Piece hat theory on. To whom does the Clown owe his powers from? Is it the 9th apostle? Is it the apostle daddy Order, or something else we are unsure about. GET YOUR THEORIES WILD BOYS! :eek::eek::eek::eek:

Well, given that he can manipulate reality at will, naturally dream-delves every time he sleeps and is referred to being an inheritor of a divine power, I would assume he is a combination of Truth and Fantasy, thus being a Paradox-spawn. Truth being used to manipulate tangible reality, and Fantasy beign used to manipulate the immaterial world.

Also, his supernatural energy is magenta and lime green, which are the colors of the Truth and the Fantasy's avatars. Eisheth and Aglaecwif have those colors for their respective energies, too. It doesn't necessarily mean something, Apostle colors don't always match their spawn, but it's a common trend and adds support to the idea that Henri has Paradox.

Furthermore, the Origin-MC describes Henri as "Ascendant, yet still unborn". Being "born" is also what the Eye calls his takeover of the MC.

is all the futa/trans/trap stuff from mc changing his body? or are there characters for these criteria of content?
I think there are three characters that the tags apply to. The first is the MC with their shapeshifting, that's where the futa/trans tag comes. The player can choose to have the MC adopt those forms in various scenes, usually a "female MC" appearance (which can also be futa in some scenes, at the player's choice) but occasionally imitating an existing woman as part of a deception.

The second is Demi, a side character who is genderfluid and whose sex is player determinant. Whichever the player chooses the MC to assume is Demi's sex upon first meeting them, that's what they are. Their appearance otherwise doesn't change, meaning that the trap tag could be applied to a Demi with a penis.

Thirdly, there's a very minor character named Nikki that you can help disguise themselves to escape prison by turning them into a woman. They were also an effeminate "prison bitch" before then, making them arguably the trap tag depending on your beliefs about situational sexuality.

Does anyone else hear Brendon Small's voice when reading the MC's lines or is it just me? Lol
