Lurker > Mega Mana

- Current answer:

Who: Shannon
How: Because she's insane
Why: Because Battler came back to Rokkenjima. It's in red that Battler's reappearance set off or was a major cause of the murders. There are only two big reasons I can think of for that now. One, he's the true heir to Beatrice's gold. However, the epitaph has nothing to do with him, apparently. It didn't exist for Battler. Did it exist only to give someone else the gold in lieu of Battler? Perhaps. Perhaps someone killed everyone knowing that the epitaph was no more with Battler back or something. Two, love. Looks like Shannon and Battler were in love, and with George proposing to Shannon the day Battler comes back... maybe Shannon went a little axe-crazy. I don't know. I'm still very confused.

- Keep hammering on the why dunnit. Keep on hammering it in.
- Only the heart can kill a person. If a person has been killed, you must search for the heart.

Kinzo: He is dead at the start of all games. HE IS NOT THE CULPRIT.

Krauss: He's aware of the gold on the island. He knows Kinzo is dead. He wants to turn the island into a resort, but is failing and he needs cash now to keep investors interested. He took forever to have a child with Natsuhi. He dies early and he dies often. Outside of upsetting his cousins' gambits before the twilights begin, his only moments of note were fighting the loser goat with his boxing skills and dying with Natsuhi in the arbor. Krauss spoke with Jessica many times on the phone during Game Four. UNLIKELY CULPRIT

Natsuhi: Krauss has shown her the gold on the island. She knows of Kinzo's death. She is very protective of everyone in the first game. She has an antagonistic relationship with Eva and some of the servants, and possibly Rosa. She is directly responsible for Beatrice's child falling off the cliff and being sent to the orphanage. Despite her wild imagination conjuring a benevolent and kind-hearted Kinzo, it's very likely (even in red) that Kinzo did not love her. Both because she was late in giving him an heir and because she almost killed Beatrice's child. Natsuhi also has migraines and wild fits of anxiety. SHE IS NOT THE CULPRIT OF GAME 5, but could that be a different board than the rest since there was a different host? LIKELY SCAPEGOAT, UNLIKELY KILLER.

Jessica: PETTAN PETTAN TSURU PETTAN. She loves Kanon who is the costume or figment of Shannon's schitzophrenia? She's a tomboy and doesn't care much for becoming head of household. She's aware of the Golden Witch but does not believe in her. Her special attack are her fists. She leads a double life where she's super popular and outgoing at school, but doesn't let anyone (but Kanon) know. She disappeared at the end of game one, was blinded at the end of game three, and may have been involved with the events of game four since she was the one talking with the others on the phone. I forget how she died in game two. Her importance to the plot and lore mainly lie with Kanon and George+Shannon. UNLIKELY KILLER, POSSIBLE ACCOMPLICE.


Eva: Discovered the gold in Game Three which is the only game with a noticably different outcome than the rest. Eva finding the gold and becoming a witch likely proves that someone else is the culprit and the gold is a large part of things. Rosa was also aware of the gold, which she may have been across all games. Antagonistic towards Natsuhi and aware something isn't right about Kinzo's isolation. Against George's relationship to Shannon, but that may only be a delusion of George's. It is unsure. She is highly venomous in public, but deeply troubled and romantic in private.

Chapter Three: Days Enraptured
Didn't they say he was gathering children to be sacrifices for his experiments?
- Kumasawa ia awesome. So all his little friends are objects, pieces.
- Owned, *****es. Yasu's got the keys!
- LUCIFER FAIL
- Gaps between jobs to play, but too much can lead to laziness!
- Balance. Moderation.
- Kumasawa's a huge mystery novel fan, too?
- lol Shannon! SPOILERS
- The culprit in a mystery novel withotu an answer is a witch.
- A thinking game, a competition amongst friends. How many points have I amassed? Who's winning?
- I lose if I don't solve it by the end. Gotcha. A witch did it! Am I right?
- Chapter end. So what does the by-line have to do with anything? Is it about mystery novels? Do the sacrifices read and play thinking games or chess?

Chapter Four: New Days
The months and years slid by.
- High turnover rate. Servant training then they spread their wings and fly away.
- Asune and Berune. Have we seen Mammon yet?
- The disappearing key!
- Hmmm... Yasu took a key off his or her keyring, left in Beelze's locker, then switched key rings with her later in the day? But wait, Yasu's keyring is held on by a string. Hmm
- Come, try and remember.
- The Master Key can come off keyrings? Or just the absence of Kanon allows the keys to change closed room murders?
- Yeah, Imma be a witch. Screw servitude.
- Shannon's disbelief is the best. Inner thoughts: My roommate just went full ******.
- And Shannon just ingested whatever drugs Yasu put in the water supply
- No, it was a laser pointer.
- This may be Gaap's best stuff, but god is it awful. I'm falling asleep after only coming back for five minutes. I. Do. Not. Care.
- Though still of undeterminate gender, he/she picks out a beautiful white dress. And the large chest of an Ushiuromiya family servant. Notice how there were no males serving the family? They really were men. The island just gives them giant chests. Because it's magic. And if Nanjo really is Gaap, then it all fits. And why Bronove is such a bro.
- Mirrors are eeeeevvvviiiiiil.
- Kidnapped by an old man with a crossdressing fetish.
- Oh good, it was all Shannon's dream! Except furniture disappeared while she slept.
- Why wouldn't Yasu steal his own bed? She stole Shannon's bed. Does he just want to sleep where Shannon slept or is she just a dick who steals other people's beds? Or maybe Shannon's having a mental breakdown.
- Time for Legion to take over the world!

Chapter Five: A New Element
Did you check the bathroom amenities?
- Oh, there's Mammon!
- Shannon's imagining things again!
- So, Runt Servant goes to the house, is likely Kinzo's successor, then wants to be a witch and abandons everything and now magic and Shannon's forgetful and... I hate magic.
- What doesn't Runty possess that Shannon does or whatever? Yeah, I mostly skipped over this.
- Conference of at least six years past. Asumu still around, no Ange, no Gohda, no Kanon.
- XD, kids on the beach stories
- Runty is butthurt that Shannon's having fun
- Without love, it cannot be seen.
- Lo.....ve.......? No, it's just one syllable.
- Respect. Trust. Mystery novels. Battler? Why aren't they showing George? Opposite sex sin't Jessica. Battler?
- Need to know the who, how, and why. They keep asking so I guess I should solve it soon.

Anri, did you ever actually finish Lost, or did you just quit completely after Season 3's finale?
Quit after season 3.

Was this a mistake?

E. I've only played an hour at most with both of these games, and though I've played other games in their respective series or likeness at length (MGS:TT, MGS2 / FFTA, FFTA2, Tactics Ogre) and know enough about their characters and gameplay to make a judgment call, I refrrain from voting.

E. I haven’t played either one.

- Hmm.. Shkanon totally has a crush on Battler and doesn't really want to marry George so she snaps to kill everybody except Battler? Is that... naaaaaah.
- Only one child went to school and worked at the same time? Who is this smarty pants? Whoa, what if Battler's the ohhhhhh... orphaned Beatrice kid taken in by Brothel House. Kinzo regularly picks Brothel House kids to become servants in hopes one of them is his heir. Something something how Battler doesn't remember I don't know.
- "Oooooh, Beatriiiiiice!!" cause this kid is totally Battler. And adopted by Rudolf/Asumu? How does he forget though?
- Oh, so this is Lion? Oh.
- Genji knew the truth but was reluctant to tell anyone.
- 'The more one learns, the less simple this tale becomes.' I know, right? I thought it was about a giant mass murder on some island with magic puzzles and creepy girl who go "uuuu~!"
- Everyone is used to living with two names, their House names and nicknames.
- Last name: Yasuda.
- Hey there, Leviathan! Satan!
- Oh... ****. That servant who died because of the Golden Witch a few years back? That was Lion, wasn't it? That's... ohhhhhhhh
- Genji finds the baby, calls up Nanjo, and they determine its status as alive. The Endless Witch's blood flows through his veins.
- Man, I hate this chapter. I want to feel brilliant and discover all this for myself, XD. Oh well.
- Haha, silly Bern. Kinzo-Lion fragment is squicky.
- Small, underveloped kid loses three years of his life.

Chapter Two: The First Friend
Yeah, seriously. Not only was Yasu slow-witted, that kid also lost stuff all the time.
- Hey there, uh... Belphegor? I think?
- Everyone gets yelled at if something is lost. At least now I know why the seven stakes are all names of the devil =P
- Kid believes in the golden Witch stories... the ones of spider-webs? The local fisherman's tale. That's why it's mixed in.
- Kumasawa! Your tale better have mackerel!
- The VIP Room on the second floor is where Beatrice dwells!
- XD XD XD, Kumasawa with the scary close-up and laugh. <3 <3 <3
- Sup, Kanon? Whoa, wait, KANON? When'd you arrive here?
- Gotta find that brush, kid! At least be grateful Rosa's not the one looking after you.
- It's in your back pocket, fool!
- The witch, Gaap, is not Beatrice.
- Ha, it was outside the chapel the whole time.
- I was totally expectiing Battler.

Seriously. This is interesting and packed with info, but I'd rather have Ange talking to the Stakes and MARIA for four hours straight.

Gaaaaaaaaaah.

Alright, putting up what I have so far.

Kinzoface Count: 26

Quickly looking over old tips. Winchester M1894. 4+1 shots. Fits the three guns with five shots theory. Only 5 shots rang out, one was faked. Maria faking her death with Rosa in that room? But they are definitely dead... unless they left the island together. Rosa discovered the gold. What went wrong in Game Three? Eva discovered it too. Rosa's the culprit of Game 1 (faked shed corpse, hiding in Eva's room, telling Maria not to look at what she was about to do), Game 2 (holds the master keys, has the gun, other stuff because I don't remember game that well), and Game 4 (five shots means one body didn't die, Maria passed test so she was told to play dead with mom, then they escaped the island by boat), and... game five? What happened in game five? It wasn't Natushi.
- Welp, Rosa is definitely dead in Game 5. Maria too.
- And in Game 6. Hrrrrrrm.

I'm clueless.

BACK TO REALITY... THREE DAYS LATER

- Oops, there goes gravity.
- Alright, the 4th game revealed Beatrice's true origin... and you learned who she was and about her heart... so... um... yeah. Rosa? I guess? *shrugs*
- The motive? Umm... Battler was Kinzo & Beatrice's kid that fell down the cliff? And he left for six years throwing the inheritance to the wind. When he came back, and everyone found out Kinzo had been dead along, that's when someone snapped and started killing everyone? I think? Something like that.
- The who: "The 'culprit' who can kill everyone at 24:00 on October 5th, no matter where they are. It's possible to make a certain hypothesis for that time. You might call that the other treasure of the Golden Land."
- So, Kinzo-baby, inheritance scuffle, fractured mind, killing spree, but also had a hand in writing the epitaph and throwing up the illusion of the Golden Witch? The Chiru games are just full of hinty goodness so dullards like me can understand.
- WHO THAT'S MYSTERY CULPRIT?! IT'S PIKACHU!!!
- They just wanted to be noticed?
- Her four games, there was a message. Three games with different Masters, a strange sort of fate toyed with his or her life. In every game, this person.. dies? Ooh, confirmed "her." That eliminates Nanjo. Eva survived Game 3 so it ain't her. Kyrie? Rosa? Shannon? Natsuhi? Kumasawa? Jessica? Maria? Rudolf with makeup on?
- Battler's too late to save her, whoe.... Ange? Could it be Ange?
- So many hints given, none absorbed.
- THE CULPRIT IS THE WHITE LACE VENEER OF THE OTHER REALM!!!
- Lights, camera, action! PET-TAN PET-TAN TSURU PETTAN!
- Minty-haired Beatrice? Who are these two lovers who ask random questions? Where and who they are hardly matters. But wait! If they are Kanon & Shannon, who is Gaap?! Nanjo? Ewwwwwwww.
- Clair vauxof Bernard, the piece that represents Beatrice.



Chapter One, A New Life
I believe that the discipline you learn in this house will serve you well in the future.
- This is the worst stage play ever.
- 1976 AD, too young to be spring.
- Natsuhi telling someone new all the family rules. Or a bunch of new orphans for Ushiromiya slave labor.
- HOLY **** STAKES WTF IS GOING ON?!
- Also, aren't these kids supposed to be like ten years old? Lucifer's got some massive chest going on, though that could just because her head's wearing Shannon's body.
- Oh, an older servant. Good. That's very good.
- So Shannon's Beatrice? Or the narrator to find Beatrice? I guess? Or maybe it's even Kanon! SHOCK! Possibly... RUNON?
- Jesus! How old are you Shannon?! This is supposed to be 1976! Your chest is too big for your age, girl! Why am I even commenting on this? I've only moved ten screens since we began! Must... comment... only... on... important... giant happy fruits.

Ah yeah, his fortieth birthday present to himself. IIRC, it's because he hasn't been without a beard since he was that thin in high school, and he can't exactly go skydiving while at the house.

Yay, Big Brother After Dark viewing is actually relevant!
