Umineko no Naku Koro ni

Mar 10, 2010 23:45

Started and finished reading the first episode of Umineko no Naku Koro ni [When the Seagulls Cry]. Really addicted, but I'm sad because I have to wait for more of Episode 2 to be released to understand the story in the proper order.

It makes a lot more sense too if you consider that it's based on a visual novel game. Even if the visual novel's art is not that impressive, the manga's artwork is amazing!

I just love "locked room mysteries", especially if they have that supernatural aspect. And how the character must determine whether the murder is due to a supernatural force, or a human one. I guess that's why I like Persona 4, Ace Attorney, etc. And the whole psychological "Who can I trust anymore?" aspect is always compelling, like Bloody Monday.

I wish I could write an awesome mystery story. Someday, I shall!

Found out that there's an anime to go along with it too. Here's the opening song!
