Umineko no Naku Koro ni Theories: Difference between revisions

:The Rosatrice theory is an alternative explanation of the murders on Rokkenjima in which [[Rosa Ushiromiya]] is the mastermind with [[George Ushiromiya]] and [[Doctor Nanjo]] as her primary accomplices. It gained notoriety among the fanbase due to a nine-hour long, five-part series of YouTube videos by user "KnowNoMore" which went in to in-depth explanations on how the theory worked.

:[[File:Until we reach the Golden Land.jpg|Until we reach the Golden Land|thumb]]A rather humorous theory postulating that [[Toshiro Gohda]] was involved in every murder on [[Rokkenjima]], committing them accidentally duringthrough a series of mishaps. This theory also makes use of the Small Bombs theory above, claiming Gohda accidentally used a box of "Tiny Food Bombs" instead of sugar while preparing snacks for the Halloween party. When [[Battler UshiromioyaUshiromiya]] learns the "truth" of the murders, he finds it too ridiculous to believe and instead decides that it is more likely that a witch did it.

:It has long been speculated that [[Bernkastel]] is the [[Frederica Bernkastel|same character who wrote the poems introducing each chapter of ''Higurashi no Naku Koro ni'']]. A very popular theory is that this same Bernkastel is actually [[Rika Furude]], a theory supported by both characters having fragment-hopping abilities as well as similar appearances. ThisThe connection between Rika and Bernkastel has been confirmed by [[Ryukishi07]], however the connection between Rika, Bernkastel, and Frederica Bernkastel remains a fan speculation.

:Lambdadelta is Bernkastel's companion voyager witch and thus is the subject of speculation regarding a possible human identity. forPreviously, Lambdadelta. Thethe most common version of this theory iswas that Lambdadelta is [[Miyo Takano]], main antagonist of ''Higurashi no Naku Koro ni'' and Rika's main rival. This is supported by the similar hairappearance between the two characters as well as Lambdadelta referring to Miyo Takano as "her other self" in the ''[[Hotarubi no Tomoru Koro ni]]'' prologue, ''[[The First and the Last Gift]]''. However, Ryukishi07 has dismissed this theory as a red herring. Another common speculation is that Lambdadelta is [[Satoko Houjou]], Rika's best friend. This is supported by similar hair colorsappearance between the two as well as the similarity of Rika and Satoko's relationship to Bernkastel and Lambdadelta's relationship. [[Ryukishi07]]Though hasthey dismissedhave bothnot theoriesbeen asofficially redconnected, herringsSatoko's experiences during {{satokowashi}} and {{sotsu}} have only cemented the theory.
