Line 71:
* ''Synopsis'': 12 years have passed since the Great Hinamizawa Disaster, which left no known survivors. But now seemingly innocent bystanders wander into the village again and again, like lambs to a slaughter. And all the while a great conspiracy looms over them...
* ''Pairings'': Depends on the chapter. Shion/Keiichi, various OC pairings, Rika/Keiichi, and Mion/Keiichi are all extremely common.
* ''Comments'': Let me say right off the bat that this story definitely isn't for everyone. It's rated M for a reason -- almostreason—almost every chapter involves mature (and disturbing) content, although the author is classy enough to never get particularly explicit. The story itself is a colossal [[Mind Screw]], with the reader not being able to trust almost any of the narration given to them, and having to work out through small details what is going on at times (How and why is is explained in detail to the reader by the author). And then there's the issue that he spells Keiichi with one I. But look past that, and you see a fantastically written story, with an extremely fluid writing style, excellent [[OCs]] that are interesting and sympathetic, characters that (when their personalities aren't being maliciously twisted) are extremely IC, and when they act out of character, the context makes it absolutely clear why. And then there's the way he cleverly makes it flawlessly flow into Umineko's storyline.
** [[User:Vilui]]: In fact, it reads almost more like a series of interconnected short stories; it's trying to work out ''how'' they connect that's so difficult to figure out. Within each story, the writing is very high-quality throughout, with deep immersion in the characters, and many surprising developments and well-crafted emotional moments. The contrasts between the pieces, both in mood and in giving each narrator their own voice, are also very well done.
