Umineko: When They Cry: Difference between revisions

* [[Talking Is a Free Action]] - Gleefully averted. In the first arc, Kanon {{spoiler|has a long rant about how he's going to kill himself and ruin Beatrice's plans, but she sics a Stake on him before he gets around to acting on it}}. There's also an awful lot of people [[Killed Mid-Sentence|dying in the middle of trying to say something important]]. The anime, on the other hand, fell a victim to this trope with a Jessica falling to the ground in a bullet time and talking at the same time.

** Played straight later in the novels, Battler's debate with Beato at the end of the fourth arc and the trial at the end of the fifth arc last a minute each.

* [[Tangled Family Tree]] - And ''how''. It's revealed in EP7 that {{spoiler|Kinzo had a daughter with Beatrice I, and then had ''another'' daughter/son [[Parental Incest|with that daughter]]. Said second daughter/son is in a relationship with at least two of Kinzo's grandchildren. Gender ambiguity actually being a plot point here. You do the math.}}

* [[Tempting Fate]] - "Unless messing up sets off {{spoiler|a trap that blows up the island}}, of course." You just ''had'' to say it, {{spoiler|Beato.}}
