STORY 100 years after the world was nearly destroyed during World War III... Cutting-edge technology saved the planet from a nuclear winter, allowing its population to reach the tens of billions once more. This eventually gave rise to a new ultimate military technology, the Gauntlet. People who wore these on their left arms were called Gauntlet Knights, and without carrying any additional equipment, they could use this unrivaled power to fly like fighter planes, fight like aircraft carriers and battleships, and repel all sorts of attacks like tanks. Children all over the world were fascinated by this new kind of hero. However, because Gauntlets could only be used by those who had particular talents and underwent special training from a very young age, not even 150,000 people from across the world could control them, even if you counted preschoolers. And the number of people who actually earned the title of Gauntlet Knight was even smaller. In other words, it was becoming an era where all existing military forces would be obsolete, and where the military might of the world would be measured by the small number of boys and girls who could use Gauntlets. After competing against each other in the International Battle Standard Festival, a group of Gauntlet Knights from all over the world became fast friends, swearing to support the walls of peace from both sides and prevent another World War from ever occurring. However, World War IV was steadily approaching, like a line of falling dominos. The young are supposed to be the main characters in their own eras.

@Spiderman Yeah, I’m personally not a fan of Ryukishi’s Umineko sprites, don’t get me wrong they’ve got their charm, but they always looked a bit flat and low resolution, kinda like they were made in MS Paint, but if he went back and redid the sprites in his more current style I’d probably go back and give the Ryukishi Umineko sprites a try.
not to be the ackshually guy, but it was remotaro that did all of the lineart and coloring. Ryukishi07 did do all of the original character sketches, and out of a love for the series and it's fans remotaro decided to keep his original sketches :)
his artstyle hasn't changed much and he never drew as bad as people think, this was due to his drawing on paper not being well translated to digital illustration. Then if didn't changed much whys is it that I feel a difference in ciconia, they now have someone to do the coloring of his sprites. i'll give you some exemples of his artwork: static.wikia.nocookie.net/umineko/images/e/ea/R07_beato_2018.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20220113235903 static.wikia.nocookie.net/umineko/images/0/05/Daiichi_rena.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1000?cb=20210802004019 static.wikia.nocookie.net/umineko/images/2/2d/Hanyuu_beato.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1000?cb=20220118012828 And i think his best arworks are from the higurashi character guide, that really shows his actual style, you may still think is "bad" which i would disagree, it's just his style lmao: static.wikia.nocookie.net/umineko/images/5/52/Higu_official_character_guide_page_10.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1000?cb=20201123041954 static.wikia.nocookie.net/umineko/images/0/06/Higu_official_character_guide_page_16.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1000?cb=20201123042001 static.wikia.nocookie.net/umineko/images/0/05/Higu_official_character_guide_page_22.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1000?cb=20201123042006 static.wikia.nocookie.net/umineko/images/f/f8/Higu_official_character_guide_page_28.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1000?cb=20201123042010

Beautiful things can come out of a dogged refusal to conform to conventions. This is not a conventionally "perfect" dime-a-dozen anime art style, but it's perfectly Ryukishi, and that's all that matters.
He has a very distinct art style, you can very easily tell it's his work. Surprisingly the characters don't look that different from his other series like Higurashi though. Like the face shape and hair seem similar.
@@jeff9400 The references go even further. Both her and Lilja (her partner) have references to both Lambda and Bern in their designs and characters. Koshka with her name meaning Cat, and her armband having Cyrillic numeral 3 and 4 (34) for Lambda. Lilja literally says "Nipahh" in the japanese version while having sweets integral to her design (the cinnamon bun ornaments in her hair). Combined with Chloe's design? Something fishy is up with Grave mole.
@@vivvy_0 Every species of animal (that has been described to science) has a latin name that consists of two parts, the genus (broader category) and specific epithet (which identifies that species only). For instance the Japanese evening cicada (or Higurashi) is a specific species of insect in the genus "Tanna" and is designated by the specific epithet "Japonensis", for a latin name of "Tanna japonensis." There are other species of cicada in the genus "Tanna" that have different specific epithet. Ciconia is different from the titles of Higurashi and Umineko, in that the latter two use Japanese common names for the Japanese evening cicada and seagulls, but Ciconia is actually the latin name for the genus that includes all storks, and is not a Japanese word. Apparently Ryukishi 07 heard someone talking about "Ciconia" at a convention and pronounced it "Kikonia," and that's why the title is written in this way!
probably not, only reason phase 2 isn't out is cause the pandemic and how similarish the story is for it so its delayed till everything is atleast stable in the world so it doesn't leave a bad taste
A few things i found interesting, some of whom, have already been pointed out by others. A few smaller Umineko and Higurashi spoilers may be mentioned 0:25 What seems to be the main characters team, is shown with an emblem picturing a cat with a scytche... seems familiar. The cat could also just be referring to the fact that the last part of the main characters name "Mitake Miyao" sounds like a Meow. 0:31 Person to the right kind of looks like Furudo Erika, especially with that expression on her face 0:49 The person in the back, kind of looks like Okonogi, and the person to the right is undoubtedly Takano. Her ribbon on her chest is even included. Of course Lambdadeltas design and name was quite the red herring for Takano in Umineko, perhaps this is too in someway? This is most likely just due to change in artstyle, but her hairstyle has changed a little bit. I'll agree in, and accept that this is Takano, however i won't be suprised if it turns out to be a red herring of some kind. And here is a few more questionable observations, that are most likely just me overthinking things, in a desperate effort to find anything. 0:41 The person on the left has a golden rose on her. This most likely means nothing, but still, you never know 0:45 The right side of the bird sitting on top of the earth, kind of looks like the one winged eagle, especially the wings of the emblem that the two girls carry on their shoulders, has a resemblence to the one winged eagle, that is if you ignore the head. Again, this is most likely nothing. 0:46 Of what we can see in this picture, the middle girls outfit, resembles Bernkastels outfit, to actually a quite high degree. 1:17 A red haired person jumping off a building seems familiar 1:25 In this scene, the picture inverts. The first teaser image we got of Ciconia was inverted as well. Perhaps inverting pictures will be a hint in figuring out "the truth" if Ciconia happens to play out in the same manner as Higurashi and Umineko. Guess we'll have to wait for more information to draw any conclusions. I really can't wait for this game.
apparently Phase 2 has been written, but its "apparently" too close to reality that ryukishi decided to delay it until covid 100% died down (might take 1-2 more years until an endemic)
i wonder how ryukishi managed to write poc characters, most japanese media is wonky in writing western people in general so this sure must have been especially challenging

Что интересно, хвост есть даже в человеческой форме. Другая, более абстрактная форма Бернкастель как космической сущности - это целая Вселенная со множеством галактик, внутренний духовный мир, личная игровая доска, частью которой также являются фигуры-дети, представленные в виде десяти квадриллионов черных кошек. Кроме того, Бернкастель владеет большой черной косой, но использует её довольно редко.

STORY
100 years after the world was nearly destroyed during World War III...
Cutting-edge technology saved the planet from a nuclear winter, allowing its population to reach the tens of billions once more.
This eventually gave rise to a new ultimate military technology, the Gauntlet.
People who wore these on their left arms were called Gauntlet Knights, and without carrying any additional equipment, they could use this unrivaled power to fly like fighter planes, fight like aircraft carriers and battleships, and repel all sorts of attacks like tanks.
Children all over the world were fascinated by this new kind of hero.
However, because Gauntlets could only be used by those who had particular talents and underwent special training from a very young age, not even 150,000 people from across the world could control them, even if you counted preschoolers. And the number of people who actually earned the title of Gauntlet Knight was even smaller.
In other words, it was becoming an era where all existing military forces would be obsolete, and where the military might of the world would be measured by the small number of boys and girls who could use Gauntlets.
After competing against each other in the International Battle Standard Festival, a group of Gauntlet Knights from all over the world became fast friends, swearing to support the walls of peace from both sides and prevent another World War from ever occurring.
However, World War IV was steadily approaching, like a line of falling dominos.
The young are supposed to be the main characters in their own eras.
But in reality, they're nothing but game pieces lined up on the board of those who are crafty and more experienced.
Must these boys and girls be forced to kill each other as pieces?
Who are the pieces, and who are the players? And who does the players' bidding?
What victory conditions does each person have? Is it peace? War? Annihilation?
Is the foretold tragedy a scheme or a delusion, the future or reality?
No.
There is no need to resist this tragedy.
The job of a game piece is to dance about within the tragedy's grasp.
What are the rules of the game, you ask? How hard is it? That's for us to decide, so it's none of your concern.
All you people need to do is take pieces and get taken yourselves, entertaining us with the range of your emotions.
Are you listening? You don't want to misunderstand your position.
You aren't my opponent. You're merely a piece that exists for my amusement.
In this next game,
I won't give you the privilege of being a player!
Wow otro juego de brujas entonces
I expect to find my great WITCH OF MIRACLES ❤❤❤
That sounds more in the style of Higurashi... so the "mystery" is how to prevent the events of the game to escalate into WW4?
Damn this one had so much tragedies in it
@@dschehutinefer5627 I don't think so. We're done with friendship power and Ryukishi isn't the type to repeat himself.
I find it admirable thay Ryukishi07 still does character arts himself after all the years.

what does that even mean
@@vivvy_0 Every species of animal (that has been described to science) has a latin name that consists of two parts, the genus (broader category) and specific epithet (which identifies that species only).

@mikosha yeah some parts in the Novel are downright scary in how close to reality they are.
Still waiting
the art keeps on improving
A few things i found interesting, some of whom, have already been pointed out by others. A few smaller Umineko and Higurashi spoilers may be mentioned
0:25 What seems to be the main characters team, is shown with an emblem picturing a cat with a scytche... seems familiar. The cat could also just be referring to the fact that the last part of the main characters name "Mitake Miyao" sounds like a Meow.
0:31 Person to the right kind of looks like Furudo Erika, especially with that expression on her face
0:49 The person in the back, kind of looks like Okonogi, and the person to the right is undoubtedly Takano. Her ribbon on her chest is even included.
Of course Lambdadeltas design and name was quite the red herring for Takano in Umineko, perhaps this is too in someway? This is most likely just due to change in artstyle, but her hairstyle has changed a little bit. I'll agree in, and accept that this is Takano, however i won't be suprised if it turns out to be a red herring of some kind.
And here is a few more questionable observations, that are most likely just me overthinking things, in a desperate effort to find anything.
0:41 The person on the left has a golden rose on her. This most likely means nothing, but still, you never know
0:45 The right side of the bird sitting on top of the earth, kind of looks like the one winged eagle, especially the wings of the emblem that the two girls carry on their shoulders, has a resemblence to the one winged eagle, that is if you ignore the head. Again, this is most likely nothing.
0:46 Of what we can see in this picture, the middle girls outfit, resembles Bernkastels outfit, to actually a quite high degree.
1:17 A red haired person jumping off a building seems familiar
1:25 In this scene, the picture inverts. The first teaser image we got of Ciconia was inverted as well. Perhaps inverting pictures will be a hint in figuring out "the truth" if Ciconia happens to play out in the same manner as Higurashi and Umineko.
Guess we'll have to wait for more information to draw any conclusions. I really can't wait for this game.
At 0:49 don't forget about the Tomitake lookalike on the left!
Well, guess what, Ciconia is packed to the brim with references to Umineko and Higurashi, even the cage of flesh is mentioned.
So, it's confirmed in my heart that the girl with the cinnamon buns for hair is already best waifu 👌
Their fists looks like apples

I will play Ciconia one day XD
Maybe when the phase 2 will be translated and available on steam X)
godspeed
Gonna be reading this soon 🌝
INJECT THIS INTO MY VEINS
omg it's takano miyo
It's about to be 2022 and no phase 2?
My Body is ready for more 07 Torture :) Although this looks much more Metal Gear Solid than Higurashi, but who the hell cares, I need more Time Bending Murder in my life.
No doubt it will be gorgeous!
We need this visual novel have an anime adaptation asap
Or a manga bc look the adaptation of Umineko XD
Maybe in few years when phase 3 or 4 out ??
Need umineko remake first
It will be ruined like umineko if they adapt it before it finishes.
Anime adaptations of VNs are often trash, idk why people think everything needs an animation, some things are good as they are
@@bakedbeef7814steins gates and higurashi are pretty good adaptation
No puedo esperar
All of my yes!
Heree we go again boiz. YAS!
oh?
And in higurashi gou they throw the name of a character from this game lol Xwx
Ohh yeahh very good
Phase 2 never I guess
HYPE!
OMG a new When They Cry series! I felt like its been eons since the last one (Uminkeo).
Black Hole Bullets
YES YES YES
Хмммм, символ war cats это черная кошка с косой, уж не отсылка это к бернкастель?!
Спойлер!!!!!!
Она также имеет форму черной кошки с фиолетовым бантиком на хвосте. Что интересно, хвост есть даже в человеческой форме.
Другая, более абстрактная форма Бернкастель как космической сущности - это целая Вселенная со множеством галактик, внутренний духовный мир, личная игровая доска, частью которой также являются фигуры-дети, представленные в виде десяти квадриллионов черных кошек.
Кроме того, Бернкастель владеет большой черной косой, но использует её довольно редко.
WHERE THE WITCHES AT
what if there never was witches but AI pretending to be witches in the VR world
why... that featherine or someone else said
Vier
and specimen number LD3105
in higurashi
Also spinal cord...
THE 6 DONT LIKE ARE FROM THE ILUMINATI
I'm getting Natsuhi vibes out of Sujatha.
*headache
Tv serial intensifies
and we're back
0:44 is that the Eiserne Jungfrau (sorry if it's misspelled) from Umineko?
Spoiler: yes
0:47 also curly brown haired Bernkastel there
So many Umineko references here
Phase 2? Never.
Is this one out in english, haven't heard anything about it, especially in comparison to other 7th expansion games. If so, where can I play it, preferably legally, but ya know :(
yes the full game is oficially in english and you can buy it on steam
@@LAMBDADELTO thank you so much! I am still in the beginning chapters of Higurashi- but I will make it there eventually after this and Umineko lmfao
is this also gonna have some mystery element added to it?
its a when they cry, its always gonna exist to have one and be more brain damage then the last
