{{anchor|Furniture}}[[George Ushiromiya]] and [[Shannon]] spend the day together at the aquarium, followed by dinner and a walk on the beach. During their time together, Shannon tells George that their love is the result of magic.
 
Line 104 ⟶ 61:
{{anchor|Banquet of the Witch}}Rosa breaks into the chapel with Maria and steals one of the gold bars from the table. Meanwhile, Beatrice hosts a supernatural banquet in the reception hall of the Ushiromiya building. Notably, Battler is forced to follow Beatrice around with a leash around his neck. When the clock strikes midnight, the Golden Land merges with the real world and the supernatural guests devour both Kinzo and Battler. They then begin to chase after Rosa and Maria. Rosa manages to kill several goats with her rifle, however she breaks her ankle while running towards the ocean. Rosa and Maria embrace each other as the supernatural beings descend upon them.

== Endroll ==
<poem>And the Witch began to tell of everything.
She started providing answers to all of Battler's questions.
Every one made logical sense.
Every one satisfied him.
And Battler as forced to admit: Witches truly did "exist".
 
The rest is a story that need not be told.
== Trivia ==
After toppling the king and resigning,
All that remains is to reflect on one's moves,
And set the pieces up once more...</poem>

| trivia =
*In the opening scene, George states that he and Shannon were at the "largest aquarium in the world" and later, at dinner, states that they are currently in Okinawa. This lines up with the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, which was the largest aquarium in the world until 2005. However, the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium wasn't open until 2002, well after when the events of ''Umineko no Naku Koro ni'' typically take place, in 1986. Given that this scene is later explicitly addressed during a conversation between Shannon and [[Jessica Ushiromiya]], this is likely a simple anachronism.
