You may now laugh.
It was NOT what I expected.

Pretty much my thoughts exactly.
I'm getting major feelings of dejavu here, it's almost like watching the 'endless eight' series of episodes from 'The Melancholy of Suzimaya Haruhi'.
Note I said 'almost'?
It's the only anime related thing I can compare it to.
Having watched episode 8, I can truthfully say this is one interesting anime.
I may end up re-watching episodes to get my head around it fully.
Gotta say this though, Maria is one messed up kid and Beatrice would have to be one of the most beautiful anime characters I have seen for a long time.

I've heard the Umineko anime becomes steadily crappier in the later arcs. Which is why I dropped it and am currently reading the VN instead. I also read the manga of the 1st arc and part of the 2nd.
Have to say, the manga is the best of the 3 by far. Too bad the scanlation is moving at a snail's pace.

Get out of my thread. /kidding
Go watch TTGL.
Serious Mickk is Serious.
Micharus:
Added to list in OP;
Minami-ke, Minamin-ke: Okawari, Minami-ke: Okaeri and Minami-ke Betsubara(OVA)
I hear this series is similar to "Azumanga Daioh" and "Strawberry Marshmellow", both anime that I really enjoyed.
I may very well watch at least one season of Minami-ke after finishing Umineko in order to recover from it.
I *really* hope Umineko doesn't get as bad as certain people are saying.
As I've said in an earlier post, things are starting to get a little confusing, I may need to re-watch some episodes to keep my head in the game.
Edit: Must also mention that after the 4th episode, for some odd reason the previews for the following episode is NOT subbed. A little strange that.
Micharus:
Finished episode 16 of Umineko.
I take back what I said about comparing Umineko to MoHS, 'endless 8'.
This is way more bizarre.
At this point we have;
lots of dead people...over and over and over.
THREE witches.
A demon, an elegant, well behaved demon though.
A whole bunch of 'furniture'. (I'll explain that in the review)
A place outside the 'gameboard'. (I'll be explaining that too)
There are still no subs for the previews at the end of each episode and I'm guessing that is how it's going to be from now on.
A curious thing though, at one point it's almost as if one of the characters is telling the people watching the anime to stop watching. That is the first time I've come across such a thing. Curious indeed.
The standard of the artwork is still very high, the voice actors are very good too.
I'm thinking I might marathon the last 10 episodes, but that could lead to a great deal of confusion on my part.
There are a great number of things happening from episode to episode, so much so that one of the 'players' 'stops' proceedings so that the situation can be explained more clearly.
This is turning out to be more 'intellectual' than anything else, heading towards 'Death Note' territory in some ways, but with more drama.
