Umineko no Naku Koro ni ep 2: Turn of the Golden Witch Ch. 1

Hello,

I am pleased to announce the first release of our next project:
Umineko no Naku Koro ni (Episode 2) - Turn of the Golden Witch.

This is the third series by Ryuukishi07 who wrote Higurashi no Naku Koro ni.

As for people who were disappointed with the animation of Higurashi,
I would still ask you to try reading this series because the animation was not a good adaptation of the original novel.

As you probably have noticed, this release is not the first episode.
However the second episode is somewhat stand alone from the first.
(It won't affect your reading the manga too much).
We are trying to reach SeaCatScans who have worked on Ep. 1
half a year ago to ask if we (Solo Style Bean) can pick up Ep. 1
(We couldn't find an email or mirc channel to reach the group).

If anyone knows a way to contact SeaCatScans, please drop us an email.
Thank you and enjoy the series.

Hey,

Well, Shiki said everything this time.
Anyway, I have to say that George (a.k.a. Tomitake Flash) is getting too full of himself.
Who knows? He might just end up scratching himself to death. ;)

Hey there. Is anyone else confused with this chapter because I have no clue what's going on.
Oh well, it's still really interesting! Enjoy the release!

-Hei

P.S. This chapter (and I guess the others) are a pain to clean, typeset, etc. So, leave us many comments!

  2. Hi, guys,

    Great to hear that you continue the work on Umineko. I believe you can contact Unasuvas of the Sea Cat Scans on Animesuki forums, in related threads. Hope this helps.

  3. Thank you for picking this up. But I think you made a small mistake since Shannon's real name is Sayo, not Miyo (unless they changed the name for the manga; in this case do not mind). And I am pretty sure that unasuvas will gladly appreciate your help, since the status is unchanged since months~ =)
