Okay fine I guess that's the highest degree of logical proof.

Phase 2 better be GODDAMN PROPHETIC about 2020s world events to justify his excuses, otherwise he gets the nata.

>>269243173
Ciconia is painfully amateurish sadly. I find it to be very lacking compared to many works that treat similar themes, VN, manga or anime. I doubt it'll have anything of real value to say. Ciconia 1 was basically "youth good, old bad" sprinkled with a bunch of LE SHEEPS.

A lot of Phase 1 is just introducing a shit ton of characters and the setting. As if ryukishi's other works are more mature.
We're just prisoners of his connected wtcmarvel universe.
Looking for the next high point that was higurashi.

If you somehow ignore the sequel that ruined the whole series

I hope you didn't watch the umineko anime, it's a complete trainwreck. We don't usually even acknowledge it exists.

If you read it and hated it, well, you might have liked Higurashi if you read it first. Might be too late now. idk give it a try.

Higurashi had enjoyable competent thriller plots. I never found myself thinking "man this is vapid" when I saw Keiichi fearing people following him or finding needles in his food or whatever. I was thinking "what are these diet patriots?" when I saw the 3 kings and "why are the politics so nonsensical" often
>>
>>269243819
just like my hopes and dreams
>>
>>269243999
Higurashi is a much more consistent less experimental story. I think it's far better personally. Message is better too.

Oh yeah, Higurashi just works. Solid story, great setting, very good characters.
The plots were engaging despite the amateurishness of the writing.

Ciconia is a much harder setting to write than Higurashi. I think Ryuukishi isn't mature enough to pull it off well. Never has been. But I think he also made a big mistake splitting it into only 4 phases.
>>
>>269244929
Yeah so I think it's not wise to equate Higurashi holes with Ciconia holes. With Higurashi holes you get "man this doll stuff feels a bit dumb and romcom-ish, also K1 was too gullible" but you still end up enjoying the thrills, the characters, the mystery, the village lore and all these neat little things. With Ciconia, well, the worldbuilding and politics are basically the supposed main appeal, but they're not up to par. Nobody reads Ciconia for Miyao dating Jaden. It felt really jarring when I read Ciconia while watching Nanoha StrikerS and telling myself "why is this 8h magical girl anime doing a better job at discussing politics and logistic challenges than this 25h long VN?"
>>
>>269240404
This hack only knows how to regurgitate higurashi slop and he doesn't even do it right lmao. SotsuGo ruined his image forever.
>>
>>269245078
Yeah that's the point.

Higurashi is an easier setting because the politic underpinnings of it are very grounded, realistic and written for japanese audience but still quite approachable even for non-japanese audiences. There's a rural village, there's murahachibu, there's a government dam project about to fuck it up. A very grounded and intriguing setting for the small character cast and fantasy elements to thrive in. The idyllic setting is a great contrast against the dark events.

Very different from speculative scifi and politics of global scope with a huge global cast that he tried to write as a fanservice to his readers all over the world. It's too ambitious for him. He's never going to make a setting so far removed from reality feel as familiar to the reader as Higurashi or Umineko, it will never have the same level of verisimilitude. Whatever intrigue he writes in that setting won't be as engaging to read.
>>
are you retards seriously discussing the quality of a ryukishi VN by the first chapter?

It's easy to compare Phase 1 against one or two chapters of Higurashi/Umineko and see how it doesn't hold up.

The more I think about it the more I'm amazed by the balls one must have to write something like Rose Gun Days

Ryukishi is lucky very few people actually read it, otherwise there would be a meltdown worse than Umineko 8

If it's a kind of work he's doing for the first time it probably won't be just more Higurashi or Umineko, an adaptation of those, or another VN release.

The one exception I guess is if it's something like him actually writing the script for an anime for the first time. Note that even in Gou/Sotsu although he was credited for the story, the script/story composition weren't his. That was credited to Naoki Hayashi. So, if he's actually writing the final on screen script, it could be that.

For what's worth, Kadokawa (one of Gou/Sotsu's sponsors, also published the manga version) has an anime adaptation announcement the same day as R07's announcement.

No, both work surprisingly well on their own.

Onikakushi by itself was very popular, and ep1 of Umineko was actually MORE popular than the later episodes when Umineko was originally getting released (since the Answer arcs just hurt Umineko's popularity in Japan).

>and ep1 of Umineko was actually MORE popular than the later episodes
yeah because everyone was stoked to read another higurashi-like vn

shut the fuck up man, everyone would shit on the first chapter for having way too much slice of life and then suddenly at the end everyone wants to kill each other with no explanation
>>
>>269246589
>then suddenly at the end
The Higurashi Question arcs do an excellent build up to the break down though, nothing feels sudden and out of nowhere.

It's one of the main issues with the "remake" arcs of Gou and the Reiwa Question arc, how sudden the jump from slice of life to carnage is. The original Higurashi absolutely didn't suffer from that.

I seriously feel like I'm talking to bots that came from another universe where first chapter of Higurashi is actually really good. In reality a lot of people dropped the VN since nothing happens the first 8 hours and it's way too child-like at the beginning

>>
>>269246778
Even the initial parts of Higurashi have the stuff with Keiichi finding out about the murders and his friends acting like they know nothing about that. Yeah, it goes unnecessarily slow with three full scenes just for club games, and some people complain about that, but it's obvious there is something wrong, and then you still have a long stretch after the Watanagashi with Keiichi becoming filled with more and more paranoia before the murders actually happen. Really, nothing comes out of nowhere.
