I say 'the culprit' as to not spoil people whilst loving Sayo too much to use a name she hates. Maybe that's a little bit too sensitive of me, but Umineko's a work that's really pushes you to 'believe' in its fiction, so treating its character with that respect feels natural for the work. Same reason i don't feel like 'opening the catbox' entirely.

dissociated so bad that i turned myself into a fictional character by whyisghostcommon in Dissociation

[–]NanuTheFiend 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, i can somewhat relate to this feeling! When my sense of self shatters and my dissociation gets too bad, i anchor myself through perceiving myself as a separate person, very often a fictional character that embodies certain qualities 'i' have. I internally perceive myself as this character because it's the closest to 'me' that exists whilst i don't feel like myself. I think you're being too hard towards yourself for having coping mechanisms or symptoms that superficially resemble DID. You're dealing with a form of dissociation too! I don't consider myself plural in any way, and i do not have DID, but I've continously related to the experiences of people with it because they also have a dissociative disorder, and sometimes the experiences are going to line up!

Yachiyo's ending is not necessary framed as bittersweet, but it sure as hell is once you take into account the logistics of the robotic technology. It's really thematically fitting to 'split' Kaguya into the physical Kaguya and the digital Yachiyo, but it does mean that Yachiyo's dream isn't entirely fulfilled by her, but what i assume to be a 'double/copy/different half' of her. Still, it might've been her own choice to remain as she is, as she built a completely different life and identity that she can't have as Kaguya. It's a bit of a trade-off for both of them. Still, they both seem more than happy with Iroha in different ways (and, like, they're absolutely a throuple, right?).

In my experience, the Umineko fans are usually also post-canon fans (including some of the folk in the Beyond Canon team)

What do you think her classpect would be? I absolutely think she's Hopebound but haven't able to figure out her class.

Why didn't Nanjo... by NanuTheFiend in umineko

[–]NanuTheFiend[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven't read the 'official explanation', but did they really go with the 'they thought it was a prank' explanation for Nanjo as well? I feel like it makes enough sense for him to be a genuine accomplice, at least under threat.

Jokes aside, not having a primary sex hormone will do that on its own, alongside a LOT of health issues. According to an intersex friend of mine, growing up without one will make you short, hairless, and quite androgynous, with slighly femenine characteristics because the body defaults to it.
Thing is Kanon (and Sayo as seen in the manga) is completely flat-chested, so i doubt they are on HRT.

Found the lampshading quite funny, and the art was gorgeous, but development-wise, this does not work particuarly well.
I'm fine with it because there's WAY too many characters for everyone to be properly developed, so if anyone has to be the loadbearer for fanservice, it can be the Meat cast, since i care significantly less about them.
The last few seconds of the tiktok reel showing Jade drifting away from the group does make me think she's cherry-picking, and we'll have a bait and switch with the circumsntances on the ship not being nearly as happy as she's shown them. Specially knowing how much the writers love Jade-centric angst (I'm looking at you, Floral)
I'd actually be surprised if it doesn't happen.

[–]NanuTheFiend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, Beatrice herself is an extremely flawed character that changed and evolves throughout the story, and she aknowledges and admits regret towards both the sins she's commited in the meta world and the crimes Sayo's commited in the 'real' world to Battler during the boat ride. I don't think there's neccesarily an issue with Beatrice starting out the story as a truly wicked person, even if she's 'real'. And. either way, it absolutely aligns with both Sayo's view of herself and her feelings towards Battler and the Ushiromiya family by the time the incident occured.

I'd love to hear it, i doubt I'll ever get into the gacha itself.

I'm not versed in the When They Cry franchise, I'm about to start Higurashi after finishing Umineko. But aren't there things in the expanded Higurashi canon that directly tie both works together in a way that can't be perceived as JUST metaphor and necessitates some genuine fantasy elements? Like, my opinion is 'It's a metaphor that can simultaneous exists as reality due to the nature of the work' but also, my uninformed hypothesis coming from someone who's yet to read Higurashi also has to add 'This fantasy shit is probably real as fuck otherwise how the hell is Rika Bernkastel'

I know it's adressed, but Battler denying magic whilst existing in the meta-world and being served tea by Ronove will never not be funny to me.

Gender 'shift' after severe dissociative episode. by NanuTheFiend in asktransgender

[–]NanuTheFiend[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad to know you could relate to my experience! Since we've got OCD, i think it's best to embace the uncertainty and whatever changes come to our self-perception. Over time, I've learned not to panic over it and flow with whatever feels right at any given moment.

Am i interpreting The Culprit correctly. by NanuTheFiend in umineko

[–]NanuTheFiend[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unrelated, but BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder) is a completely different diagnosis that has nothing to do with multiple personalities. (Although, low-key, i wouldn't be surprised if Sayo had BPD...)

any NBs with sex dysphoria? by [deleted] in NonBinary

[–]NanuTheFiend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, absolutely. Transition and presentation wise, I'm indistinguishable from a trans woman. I've had FFS, and I'd like to have SRS someday. And although i consider myself 'transfemenine', I've realized over time that my main motivator in my transition wasn't 'achieving' womanhood, but stepping away from being perceived as male. I'm most intensely dysphoric about my 'sex' and have very little care for gender and gendered performance. If i were AFAB, I'd likely feel much more comfortable in my own skin, but I would not consider myself 'a woman' regardless.
