I can't say I've seen tons of mystery series, but as far as mystery goes in Neuro, everything is either blindingly obvious or it's obscured in some random scooby doo-esque explanation. It's gotta be the least suspenseful detective series I've ever seen.

I haven't seen that series personally... but Scooby Doo... damn I love that show.

Then please explain exactly what you like about the series so much. I gave detailed reasons as to why I don't like it so far. I've yet to see reasons why you do like it. All you keep saying is "that's your opinion". I'm trying to understand your reasons for liking it and you're giving me nothing but double talk.

What do I like about it? The characters, the setting and the suspense. Plus, I think it's going to go places, so I like the storyline. My opinion is that it's a good show, what more do you need to know? That's a stupid question.

As for Battler, I think he's a decent main character. He's not too stupid, but he's not too smart, either. The way he works is also kinda interesting.

I just like it, what "specific reason" do I need? >_>;

The little girl was going "uuuu uuuuu uuuuu" non-stop.Her mother tells her to stop but she doesn't stop and continues to "uuuuu uuuu.The mother slaps her,hard.  ;D
This is the only part I liked.I don't need to say anything about the plot,animation,etc because it's already been said.
Oh,and I never look at AniDb ratings cause they always suck as in they do not reflect my tastes.
Btw,Shirou is a moron in the anime and in the game though it is more clearly shown how big of an idiot he is in the game.

TCLe:
Umineko (the anime) fails in one thing that Higurashi (the anime) did, you see, unlike Higurashi, Umineko takes over the course of a few days before time resets.
That's hardly much time to work with, especially since much of it is crammed to be kept linear and still have that end-of-episode cliffhanger.
Much of the issues with Umineko (the anime) compared to Umineko (the game), is the lack of immersion.

You're pretty much told to stop in one spot for an entire week during a continuing story that is up against a clock ticking, literally.
So my suggestion to those bashing Umineko's story, is to simply just stop watching the anime until all the episodes of the arc are released, then watch them all in one go.

Of course, to those whining about all the cliche riddled plot of the sealed rooms and such, no worries, you'll get over it. This isn't really a murder-mystery game akin to And Then There Were None, Ryu07 has stated in a synopsis somewhere is that the story is more fantasy than mystery. This whole textbook example of mystery novel is a segue into the story.
Well, more like trying to cram a foot into a wineglass...but you get the idea.

erious:
I don't really think watching the episodes in one go would change anything, at least in the first arc. Then again, the story is the only part of the anime that I still have some hope for.
But ep 04 actually wasn't completely horrible! Battler gained some points for punching Maria, and the part when Kanon gets killed was pretty damn amusing. Everything else is still weak as hell, but hey, it got better.
I only hope Maria doesn't get too broken after what happened at the end(or get shot by Natsuhi), since she's the main source of amusement in Umineko, and without her crazy antics it would get much duller.

Nikran:
ahaha, battler punching maria was amusing, though imo it was overdue to happen.

"Hey, isn't maria strange?" Omg, someone finally noticed! :D Im kinda hoping in ep 5 when maria turns around she has half her face torn off. Would love to see her do those faces of hers with that. It could actually change her from hilarious to something very disturbing =P


Edit: how the hell does that crown thing stay on maria's head? Glue? Or is it surgically attached to her skull? That might explain why she's schizophrenic =P
