A phrase often repeated by [[Kyrie]] and [[Battler]]. The concept of turning the board around is based in chess. Essentially, the phrase means to consider the situation from the opponent's perspective. The flaw in the phrase comes from the core difference between chess and the games of ''Umineko no Naku Koro ni''. In chess, both sides have the same goal (capturing the opposing king) but in the games the Witch Side and Human Side have different goals. As such, without a true understanding of the opponent's motives, nothing can be gained from "turning the board around." |
