  • Ryukishi07 sure loves his ill-defined references to previous titles and with Gou and Sotsu, it's hard to say who Lambdadelta is supposed to be an analog of: Satoko or Takano? This video serves to unravel what is known as of this moment.

    Clearly Lambda is actually Keichi. K is the 11th letter of the alphabet, e is the 5th letter of the alphabet, and ichi is Japanese for 1. Add them together and you get 17, and then if you multiply it by the number of Brain Cells that Battler has, and you get 34.

    Ever since I first read Umineko, I found Lambdadelta to be a composite character with traits both from Takano and from Satoko, both in roles and personality.
    Then Gou came around and Satoko absorbed practically all of them except the physical appearance. She literally acted like Lambda 100% of the time.

    • @drz655

      I don't want to be that pretentious guy but imo the satoko theory doesn't make any sense. Of course it's the most easyst selution if you say "yeah lamda is insane and obsessed with Bern and satoko is gou insane and obsessed with Rika so they are the same". But if you look deeper into it everything just falls apart. Let's ignore for a moment that gou and sotsu where written like 10 years after the first umineko episode, and take a closer look about how both of them could be compared personality wise. First of all, lamda wants to be with Bern becouse she hates boredem. Satoko wants to be with Rika becouse she can't let go of her and feels betrayed becouse she is left behind by her best friend in a new environment. Lamda is cruel and sadistic becouse is bored. Satoko is cruel and sadistic becouse she wants Rika to give in. Do you where this is going? Only becouse they both act like psychos and have "supernatural powers" there is a big difference in how they do it. Another big thing is how they judge people. While lamda appreciates hard work and "rewards" them (I mean she doesn't really do it becouse she Deos not have any influence on our world), Satoko takes the easy way and makes deal with the devil although she just could move on or trie to communicate Rika her feelings. It's funny becouse you could interpret lamda as a symbol of God becouse many people belief in her. But my biggest problem with the hole thing is that it destroys the theme of the battle between miyo and Rika. Miyo ganed "supernatural powers" becouse she created a fate where it is seemingly impossible escape it. But she losed becouse Rika had enough determination to create miracle but she braked in that precess and bernkastel was created (if you want to interpret it like that). As a result Bern became the witch of miricals but she thought that miricals will never happen again. So I think that ryokushi just included the themes of those two characters in the game. Bern represents all of the pessimistic readers (or even tojas pessimistic view) who can't see anything but a tragedy in the incident and just wants to get the awnser out of it, while lamda is the rule set, the unchangeable fate who knows everything. Like how miyo created that fate to become a "God". I'm not a fan of that hole thing with "lamda and Bern are actually controlling everything and all of it is just a big chessboard!". I do think that Higurashi is work of fiction in Umineko (I mean they literally say a lot of times) and I think that's why they are called "voyagers" becouse battler and ikuko bowering in that sense characters from other story (and of course again the hole thing with lamda being a Symbole of fate and God). But that's just my interpretation. You can still believe want you want to believe. Don't take it to seriously its just something I noted in the Fandom

      @@drz655 I mean, the origin story might change "how they got here", but first, it doesn't matter how late a story is written, if its by the same author, the canonicity stands.
      And second, you're ignoring the deliberate callbacks to Satoko that they have dropped during Umineko. The most glaring one is the cake problem-trick. In Twilight of the Golden Witch, Lambdadelta asks a ""riddle"" of how many cake pieces there are. Bern jumps in the party uninvited just to say that Lambda fell for that fake riddle long ago... And that one is the same one Keiichi asks Satoko in their hide and seek. And Lambda has some traumatic past, like when she talks to Battler about how sometimes she thinks everyone else is a product of her imagination and she's trapped.
      Third, you comparing the why they are cruel doesn't hold up, witches are different. Their main cruelty is a result of thousands of years of immortality, they're bored so they're cruel. But no one is cruel in their origin, just look at Beatrice herself, they become cruel after a certain amount of time passes. The best example is Bernkastel. She's 100 Rika, why? Because in Umineko Tsubasa, she ends a letter as "Frederica Bernkastel", but she's just as cruel when she wants to have fun, despite her explicitly tragic origin.
      In the end, their personalities are a result of a lot of stuff, and they always referenced their human origins since Umineko. This is just a confirmation.

Yes she had a bad childhood but Takano had one and like I said it makes thematically more sense for her to be lamda. And if the author adds something that contradicts the themes or the story just for the sake of that than this is just bad writings. It would be something like George Lukas did. And how could be satoko become an endless witch after she finished her character Arc and came back to normal? That would be also bad writing if you say "OK she's just evil again".

      ​@@drz655 You seem to miss what happens with Lambda and Bern completely.
      First, Lambda always had the personality of BOTH Takano and Satoko. Her personality was never just one or the other, she always had traits of both. In fact, Satoko was compared multiple times to Takano in the original Higurashi, in the "we could've become the same" kind of way. Sotsugou even puts Satoko inside the Takanoface club even, thanks to Eua calling her all those names from Takanofaces.
      Disregarding the whole (with dramatic effect mind you) "you fell for the same trick question long ago, didn't you?" and Bernkastel callin herself "Frederica Bernkastel" Is outright BS.
      Never in Sotsugou contradicted Lambda as a character. Lambda and Bern always showed toxic love to each other, and the story in Sotsugou is the start of that toxic relationship.
      And finally, you missed the point of the ending completely. Satoko never became "Good". The fight ended because they were extremely tired of arguing, and after that they partly learned that they had to be far apart for a while. What you seem to miss the most, is that they never "stay". Looper Rika ("Bern") and Looper Satoko ("Lambda") never decided to stay in that final loop. Looper Satoko decides to LEAVE when she finally snaps her fingers, and only the Satoko from that kakera stays.
      Something that people seem to miss is that Sotsugou was never a Higurashi story with Higurashi themes, it was a Umineko Story, with Umineko themes, with Hinamizawa as the setting.

    So easy resume:
    1. "Lambdadelta born in Ciconia from Viers."
    2."Then went to Higurashi with Takano as her choosen one.".
    3."Takano was a full failure, were defeated and Lambadelta lost all her memories."
    4."Satoko were the True choosen one, and unlike Takano, Satoko reached the "Witch State."
    5."Lambdadelta adquired all full (twisted) personality from Satoko since she lost previous memories, but her looks from Viers stayed."
    6."After being reborn from Satoko now she only wants to take care of Barnkastel and have her all for herself."
    ****Conclusion: "Actual Lambdadelta is a mix of previous pieces being her origins from Viers, failing in Takano and reborn from Satoko."
    Can´t just say Lambda=Takano, Lambda=Vier, or Lambda=Satoko. But is ok if Lambda=(SATOKO,Takano,Viers).

    Someone has pointed out that there's a parallel between the scenes where the child Takano receives her powers and the scene where Satoko is at the prison in Gou. Both being the moment where the characters receive the power of the Witch of Certainty. There's also the last scene in Sotsu where Satoko says something along the lines of giving Satokos body back to her, which could imply the moment where the witch leaves her. The way I see it, in Higurashi the Witch was using Takano as her piece and in Gou/Sotsu Satoko is her piece. Both are Lambda's proxies in her game against Bern.
    By the way, since witches don't exist, you can say that the Witch of Certainty is just an abstraction of the tenacity demonstrated by these two characters ;-)

      @@Fragmentsinfractals488 [SPOILER]
      Actually if you read the entire Golden Witch arc without all the witch battles or trials you might see a new perspective where, the entire ordeal is actually about Ange accepting the "truth" about Rokkenjima accident. For example the witch's trials is just Ange reading Sayo's massacre plan, and she's arguing with herself whether that's exactly happened or not.
      With this, the flow of the event would be:
      -Ange heard about the Rokkenjima accident
      -Eva is the sole survivor
      -Eva took care of Ange, but due to affected by public's opinion about Eva, Ange despise Eva (Battler has talked about this)
      -during school, she was bullied by her classmates
      -because of this, she had a meltdown and hope that her classmates to die (but this didnt happen because witches dont exist. Also in one of the arc it is said that the Sinners cant do anything unless Ange can do it i.e humanly possible)
      -Eva is dying
      -Eva despise Ange as well, since she doesnt appreciate her kindness for raising her (since Ange is Kyrie's daughter, she also believe that Ange is just as disgusting as her mother, which is why she acts that way toward Ange)
      -Ange then pursues the truth on what exactly happened to Rokkenjima during that accident
      -she acquires the help of a certain organization to find any info regarding the Rokkenjima accident
      -she was given a stacks of papers that is Sayo's massacre plans as that is the only evidence found so far
      -the entire gameboards is just Ange reading and contemplating whether they're the truth or not (the Red Truth is Ange's logical thought while Blue Truth is her theory)
      -she doesnt believe them to be truth
      -later Tohya called to meet with Ange in person
      -Tohya later revealed that she had Eva's diary with her. She also were given Sayo's diary as well (not sure where it came from. The most logical is that it came with Battler)
      -Ange read the diary, and as it contain the Single Truth of what happened to Rokkenjima, she immediately believes it
      -Tohya then asked Ange for permission to reveal the diary on public tomorrow
      -She did not care about the book, and gives Tohya permission to do whatever she please
      -on the same night, Ange had a mental breakdown. She later planned for a suicide
      -however as she was falling she's contemplating on what her entire families would think of her right now
      -she instead fall on a security net, and she then changed her way of living
      -On the day Tohya were about to reveal Eva's diary, she was later called by Ange to cancel it
      -Ange later gives the Ushiromiya inheritance to be taken cared by the organization that helped her
      -Ange then went to a different city with a new alias
      -Ange later decided to be a storyteller, with Sakutarou as the debut, which aimed for kids (this is a tribute solely for Maria)
      -Ange later received a visit by Tohya and Battler
      -Battler had a memory disorder, but he did remember the Rokkenjima accident
      -Battler did not want to be known as Ushiromiya Battler, as he did not want to remember what happened on that day anymore, and want to live as a new person
      -however, he knows that her little sister must've lived in turmoil for what happened on that day, so he sends Tohya to visit and explain to her instead (remember during the last arc Erika said to Witch Battler that if he truly cared about Ange then he should've come home to her. But Battler didnt because he had amnesia, but even if he did remember he wont meet with Ange either)
      -Battler then asked Ange to never consider him as her brother anymore
      -symphatized to Battler, she agrees. However, they both accept each other only in blood
      -during the final moment, they shows Battler's last connection with his past self

      I'm not trying to argue that you should only see it in anti fantasy way, as again Umineko are portrayed through the fantasy perspective, and it's not what Umineko is all about anyway. But ultimately, you have to see the reality of it. Like, the 'sweets under teacup' trick everyone knew exactly what happened, but when Erika revealed the trick to Maria, she were thought to be "wrong" or "cruel". However, it is still the truth, a fact that all the adults seeing it agrees on.
      In the finale, Ange said that the 'appearing sweets inside a hand' is a stupid & boring trick, but she consider it the best of all, disregarding whether it was magic or just human trick (because the sweets are what matter). Applying this to Umineko, it doesnt matter if you see it as fantasy or anti fantasy perspective, as whats important is whether Umineko is really good or not. However, note that Ange do indeed believes that the 'appearing sweets inside a hand' trick were really done by a human, and not by witches or supernatural being, but she will never say so to a child.
      So basically, see Umineko from fantasy perspective at the beginning, and anti fantasy perspective at the end. You cant just see it only in fantasy perspective

Lambdadelta may have been created in Gou/ Sotsu, but since she can move freely in higher dimensions, this is no contradiction to her controlling/ favoring Takano in the original Higurashi. Concepts like "before" or "after" only make sense as long as one is bound to the flow of time, which goes from past to future.

Featherine's "ties" to Hanyuu have been confusing (even hers with Eua considering they're not supposed to be seen as the same person despite everything about them).

      It depends on how time and causality works in the Sea of Fragments. We already know it’s essentially possible to “Time Travel” in the When They Cry Series, but that seems to only be “on game boards”, for example it doesn’t seem like Bernkastel could loop in the Metaverse until she beat Battler and Ange.
      It seems really heavily implied in Sotsu that the Entity who is probably LambdaDelta was born during the event of that story, which took place chronologically after the Original Higurashi. With that being said Eua seems to imply that she already met Vier from Ciconia and we don’t know where Ciconia falls in the When They Cry Metaverse Timeline. So hypothetically Lambda could have hypothetically been using Takano as a Piece before her own Chronological birth, because Time and Causality in the Sea of Fragment doesn’t exist in a way we understand.

    great video as always, i think its both, takano in the original, and satoko in sotsugou. cuz in my mind, higurashi was originally a game between featherine and lambda, and then featherine got stuck in a logic error and put it all on her piece, rika furude. so then it would be a game between rika and lambda, and rika would win, then at saikoroshi would she split her looper personality off from herself as bernkastel based off of the wine she drank. and then sotsugou confused me more, but at this point the best thing i have rn is bern and lambda screwing around with the higurashi gameboard at one point, with bern playing rika and lambda playing satoko, and then they invent a new piece known as eua, parodying featherine (cuz why not). now the ciconia references in gou i have no idea, the whole satoko being called a witch thing is im pretty sure just random ass terminology or smth, im not sure it means anything. i have a concept for a theory to where satoko looping is a logic error for lambda, but thats just a shot in the dark atm.

    @yumallah Před 2 lety +15

    I personally believe that both Takano and Satoko were just different pieces of Lambda's during different games. Unlike Bern, who directly 'originates' from Rika, Lambdadelta doesn't 'originate' from either Takano or Satoko, and had existed long before the events of Higurashi and Umineko. So, basically, what I think is the case here is that Takano was Lambda's initial choice for a piece, as explained in Memoirs of the LD. In the end, she lost that particular game, and then kept on wandering about until the events of Umineko, where she once again meets Bern, who was created in the aftermath of Higurashi, which was probably a game between Lambda and Hanyuu, with Rika as Hanyuu's piece (who herself is somehow connected to Featherine). After Umineko, she eventually decides to return to the Higurashi gameboard, and takes up Satoko as her new piece in this new game against Bernkastel.
    This, I believe, is the most rational way to explain Lambdadelta having ties to both Takano and Satoko without directly contradicting any previously established facts. So, in a way, Lambda is both Takano and Satoko - and, at the same time, neither.

      Is probably that Lamda's original human form was either Vier Dreissig or the mysterius "Mitsuyo" Eua mentions, (even both if Mitsuyo exitsed first and them became Vier). In regards to Miyo and Satoko I'll say is more likely that Miyo was just Vier's piece, like Erika was to Bern both look a like to indicate that Miyo is her piece, while Satoko was Vier's vessel in that world, without fully knowing who she used to be, then Satoko becomes Lambda. Is really interesting because even here the number 34 is made, three humans that are the same being (Mitsuyo, Vier and Satoko) who probably reencarnated over and over end up having a 4th persona, that is actually a witch.

      Hanyuu is/was a real person in the human world. She's existed long before the events of 1983, and bonded over Rika because she resembled her daughter on top of being the only person capable of sensing/interacting with her. There is no 'game'; Hanyuu died and remained in kakera limbo for thousands of years, and then granted the same power/curse to Rika when she was inadvertently, i.e. without Hanyuu knowing, killed; unless of course you are claiming this 'game' stretches all the way back to ancient Onigafuchi somehow.
      I also very much doubt Ryuukishi has the superhuman ability to plan Umineko's writing so far ahead he'd write Higurashi with it in mind when he wasn't even sure Higurashi was ever going to be anything other than an obscure doujin.

    I believe Lambdadelta is a manifestation that emerged from Looper Satoko. Featherine off-handedly comments at one point that Satoko appears to have become a witch. I believe a few episodes later, we see the "real Satoko" emerge to try and stop the "evil Satoko" from killing her uncle which results in failure. Then, end of Sotsu, she makes the gesture as if to end a fragment, only to hesitate and mutter something along the lines of "fine, I'll tolerate this a bit longer" before discontinuing the act.
    I think the Rika and Satoko at the end of Sotsu we see are likely Berk and Lambda simply manipulating their pieces, but now both occupying the vessels and existing separate. I think Satoko in Sotsu at one point realized as Rika did that there is a separate entity guiding her actions and as a desperate bid tried to stop her. "Looper Satoko" simply destroyed Satoko and thusly went on to occupy the vessel itself for the remainder of the game, taking on her memories and personality to maintain the ruse of a Satoko who cherished Rika to her own detriment.
    Berk likely saw through the ruse, hence when Rika called out Satoko knowing about a gag gift that she shouldn't have. "Looper Rika" took control of Rika after she was about to succumb to despair and turned the tables. Their final battle across multiple fragments was likely a metaphor for the two entities battling. At the end, as Lambda is ready to end the fragment, Berk likely told her "no" and threatened to quit playing if she did, hence the hesitation.
    I think Rika and Satoko have ceased to exist at this point, being merely vessels for the two witches in their endless game. The people they were are destroyed and replaced by beings who take amusement from the multiple tragedies that befall each fragment. It's also why I think Featherine capitulated to Hanyuu so easily.
    Featherine saw that Berk and Lambda had taken the places of their pieces and would now play out their game more directly. What could be more amusing than two beings of with only a fraction of your power playing pretend as powerless mortals? Featherine saw "losing" to her fragment as more a small price to pay for such amusement.

    But Satoshi is male, all of 34 like Miyo Takano, Vier Dreissig, and Lambdadelta are female.
    Satoko called as LD3015 (with initial LD as addition).
    Satoko's kanji in Goroawase is 三十五, means 35 (34 + 1), 3105.

  • @fernandocuauhshihuacarbaja3094

    I have an interesting theory for explaining who was Lambdadelta as a Human.
    *Spoilers for Ciconia chapter/phase 1*
    *
    *
    *
    *
    My theory is that Lamdadelta was originally Vier Dressing, which sounds as "four" and "thirty" (and Vier is Satoko since that's what Eua said). Somehow Vier ended in the world of Higurashi, in Fase 1 Vier says she is building a time machine or some sorth of dimension-travel machine, so probably something went wrong (or right) and she became an intangible beign because of this (kinda like Battler was at first on the Meta-World) capable of traveling throught space-time and other worlds, so that's probably how she ended in Higurashi's World althought she had no body. Upon arriving she did 2 things: 1st) she appears as a storm and gaves Miyo her power of Certainity, so Miyo would be the Erika of Vier/Lamda on this gameboard and that's probably why Miyo looks like Vier and not backwards (similar to how Erika looks like Rika and Bernkastel, as she is Bernkastel's piece) and 2nd) she is reborn as Satoko Hojo so she could have a body again althought she would lose all her memories of being Vier and thus the whole Higurashi (Question arc, Kai, Rei, Gou and Sotsu) takes place, until the Witch Satoko / Vier leaves looking for Frederica Bernkastel and that's how she eventually will take the name of "Lamdadelta" and probably will remember her time as "Vier".
    My points for saying this is that probably Vier knew that by doing all this she could turn someone into a witch/deity, so she prepare the whole gameboard inside Higurashi so she could have an opposite, a rival who could also be her friend since she otherwise would be alone, althought her wish of beign a deity with company became truth she probably made herself suffer at the same level as her opposite so both could be at pair. I know is kinda crazy theory but is something I've been thinking since I started to read Ciconia. We have to wait the other chapters to see if this might be close to the truth. Also another proof that Vier might be the first form of Satoko and Lambdadelta is that it seems Vier had a big brother and a family, and she said she put their in brains in some kind of tubes (to make some kind of Matrix thing), and it seems her big brother's code in the tube is 3-10-4 (Satoshi) and she said she was next, so her code for the tubes would be 3-10-5 (Satoko).

Speaking of pieces since it seems she orcrestaed the whole Higurashi gameboard I was thinking she could have more of one piece at the time, since all culprits of the murder were related to numer 34 in a way (Miyo and Satoshi, also by extention Satoko of herself) so probably Satoshi was also a piece of Vier along side Miyo.

    My guess is that Higurashi pre-Gou is a different game than Gou and everything after. The original Higurashi was a game Lambda was playing either with herself or against Featherine. Lambda would’ve won, except that one of their “game pieces”, Rika, manifested Bern and completely changed the rules of the game, winning for herself instead.
    Now that a completely new witch came in to challenge Lambda’s title as most powerful, a rematch was called. Bern continued to use Rika because she already knew the strengths and weaknesses of that piece, but Lambda chose a new one to give herself the advantage of surprise.
    After all was said and done, Lambda probably just keeps some of the mannerisms of Satoko because she knows that’s the best friend of Bern’s origin piece and it’s a good way to keep the attention of her favorite playmate.

    when first reading umineko when it was coming out, it seemed to me like lambda was pulling elements from both takano and satoko. the name as a reference to takano, the personality/way she talks and pink outfit as a reference to satoko. the hair style works well enough either way.

    We have to look at things there are obvious, Takano was really a great piece, a monster in the game, but she has no idea of witches and powers and stuff. Satoko calls herself a witch, is recognized by eua (Featherine to me) and also uses the power of certainty. She talks for herself, no one told her, no one gave to her, she is a looper like rika ok, but rika has the power of miracles, and she has the power of certainty. To me is clear Lambda herself are playing agaisnt rika, in manga Lambda talks about the didn't counted the days, we can see in sotsu satoko talking about how she already forgot how many centuries has passed, so it's pretty obvious she had concious about the time and loops, takano don't know anything about the fragments, wouldn't make sense.

      I think is more likely that Miyo Takano was actually Vier Dreissig's (Lamda's OG human form) piece while Satoko was her vessel/reencarnation (as Eua suggests), then later Satoko becomes Lamdadelta. In the Umineko manga Lamdadelta says she once gave power to "someone who wanted to become a Goddess", reveling that it was her the one that throw that lightning to Miyo as choosing her to be her piece in the Higurashi Gameboard. There is something important to know here, althought Eua says Satoko is Vier she actually looks more like Takano rather than Satoko, but as we saw in Umineko usually some witch pieces look like their master to say they are used by them, like Erika and Bernkastel. Following this rule Vier was Lamda's OG form that would explain why Takano seems to be connected to Lamda, while Satoko was the actual witch reborn as a human (maybe forgoten her true name). There is also something interesting and more deep with this, it is suggested that Witches Names are related somehow to the identity they used to have as a human, and although Vier does have a connection to Lamda with the name Satoko doesn't, but she actually does with both. Eua calls Satoko "Anomalus Spinal Cord 3105-LD" which LD could refer to both Vier and Lamda, while her numer is a reference to Satoko, but also maybe this is connected to the mysterius "Mitsuyo". When Eua says "that both talked last time in the red sea" is a reference to a scene in Ciconia, here we see how a mysterius female character, which is just a Spinal Cord, is killed along side her family by being thrown each into a machine, with more human Spinal Cords that somehow are alive too in an apocaliptic future (or maybe past within Ciconia), at a point that this factory is full of blood as it was a sea. This mysterius female character which is probably "Mitsuyo" was killed right after her parents and big brother, so if Mitsuyo was "Anomalus Spinal Cord 3105", it's likely that was a code that probably everyone there had (similar to the concentration camps) to identify them. Then than means her Big Brother was "Spinal Cord 3104" which can be read as: Sa-to-shi. So yeah following all this backstory maybe right after "Mitsuyo" was killed maybe Eua made her become Vier Dreissig, which then is reborn into Satoko to finally become the witch Lamdadelta we all know.

    Satoko is more Lambdadelta than Takano.
    She's still a looper. Just like Rika is.
    I can't really see Takano becoming Lambdadelta and mostly being that childish, hence her suffering she had in her life/perspective was only once.
    However I don't say that Lambdadelta didn't control Takano in her game against bern.
    Still after losing, why would she re-use a failure piece like Takano again, knowing that she will lose, then comes the rematch game. However it's later in hiragashi Gou/Satou.
    Lambda notices Satoko's piece and turns it into her main.
    While bern sticks to Rika, knowing that she will win eventually with it.
    And during the ending bern wins again, keeping the Rika piece as her main. While Lambda accepting defeat keeps the Satoko piece.
    I still wonder why people think that Takano is more likely to be Lambda, even though she wanted Rika dead, failed then disappeared completely, and when Satoko comes in, no it's less likely she's Lambdadelta.
    Even though their characteristics are more connected to each other, childish, the laugh, final Farewells, and still Takano is more likely.

    Lambdadelta = Takano was denied by ryukishi07, right? As much as I hate it and Gou & Sotsu, I think Lambdadelta = Satoko is what ryukishi07 has decided to go with.
    But perhaps they should actually be seen as pieces on a gameboard like the gameboard in Umineko. Satoko is the piece and Lambdadelta is the player. Lambdadelta controls Gou / Sotsu Satoko, while original Satoko controls herself before and after Gou / Sotsu. It's the Satoko that gets killed in one of the Gou / Sotsu arcs but returns towards the end of Sotsu.

    My only issue with the Satoko theory is that, to me, it feels like too much of a retcon. Like, before Sotsu (which had its own issues), what is there to link them? The laugh? Who knows what R07 is thinking half of the time but it felt a little too meta. Make Satoko relevant again. I loved it when Gou looked like it would give Satoko an actual character and agency of her own but that ended... Well, things happened. I most recently subscribe to the idea of the Rikas and 34 beings representing some sort of transferable idea. They are not related themselves but their 'concepts' are 'eternal'. Or R07 just likes putting Rikas and 34's in every work of his for his own amusement, as you said. Nothing deep about it. Just something for us to spot in the next work. Who's the Rika or 34 on this one? Since at least we know Satoko and that lady from RoseGuns kinda break de 34 Takano look alike theme but behave similarly. So not all look like Takano. And not all Rikas look like og Rika. Koshka doesn't, mostly.

      It isn't a retcone. When asked about Miyo and Lamda beign similar to each other years ago Ryukishi said that Lamda and Miyo's similarities were put there to misguide the fans and with Memories of LD he kinda said that Miyo was the same to Lamda as was Beatrice/Sayo, just a piece, similar to how Erika was to Bernkastel, just a human she gave her powers. Also he said that if someone put more atenttion they would figure out who had more similarities with Lamdadelta, like it was the case with Rika and Bern, and some people actually said it could been Satoko. So with Gou/Sotsu Ryukishi kinda confirmed what some fans speculated years prior.

  • @Nier2J
    @Nier2J Před 2 lety +5

    I actually think Lambda is the two of them.
    SPOILERS CONCERNING UMINEKO AND HIGURASHI:
    Think about it, Beatrice is actually a lot of person at the same time on the game board. Why wouldn't it be possible for Lambdadelta to exist as different persons on the game board ? Of course, their power aren't the same at all. But the rule that apply to Beatrice doesn't necessary apply to Lambdadelta. We know a lot of stuff from Bernkastel, but actually, when it comes to Lambdadelta ? We are voluntary confused about her identity or in which world she belonged to before becoming a witch. What we know is that her determination and haircut is a lot similar to Takano, and her attitude and laugh is also similar to Satoko.
    So, in my opinion, there are two theories. One is that there's nothing that forbid that two pieces/characters of a world can become one single entity known as a witch(and iirc, voyager witches works differently than a mere witch). I don't like that one because it has been confirmed that Lambdadelta was the one who granted Takano's wish as a child.
    The second is that, when Takano's role as an incarnation for Lambdadelta was over, Lambdadelta, who probably resided inside Takano's soul changed piece and took Satoko's soul. At this point, Satoko wasn't and NEVER was aware of that, because she obtained the power from Eau, but the determination to keep Rika for herself was probably from Lambdadelta, even if it's not explicitly said. But Satoko DO say that she is now a witch at a point. She may be unaware of which witch she is (Lambdadelta) and might think that Satoko is a witch by herself, while in fact Lambdadelta is the witch residing inside Satoko's soul. That would mean that Eau (which at this point still WASN'T Featherine) probably made a contract or a fun bet with Lambdadelta about the battle between Rika and Satoko.
    Using the second theory, we can assume that Lambdadelta is someone who can be multiple person but at a different time, a combinaison of incarnations of piececs/character. Even Eau called Satoko by some characters from Ciconia's name. If it was Takano, would she have done the same ?
    So, while Bernkastel is purely based on one person's existence, Satoko could be based one multiple person's existence. I don't think it is impossible and don't see why it wouldn't be. Beatrice, for exemple, is in fact a lot of characters (and concepts) at the same time if you have read Umineko

    • @fernandocuauhshihuacarbaja3094

      What was said by Eua is probably that Lamdadelta was first Vier Dreissig from Ciconia, but we don't know who are Mitsuyo or Anomalus Spinal Cord LD3105. Probably both are Vier herself since in Ciconia the protagonist Miyao is shown a vision (it is unknown if it is from the future or the past, but many think it was a vision sended by Vier herself to Miyao), where a girl (or young woman) is shown to be inside a factory being just a spinal cord that is about to be destroyed along side other spinal cords, being right behind of her parents and older brother (probably Spinal Cord 3104, which is read as Sa-to-shi). The factory is probably what Eua referred to as "The Red Sea" (because of the people/spinal cords killed there). Probably Spinal Cord LD3105 was originally Mitsuyo who was reborn as Vier thanks to Eua, and then after Ciconia ends she goes to the Higurashi "game board", appearing as a storm to gave Miyoko Tanashi her powers and "creating Miyo Takano" while at the same time she was reborn as Satoko Hojo so she could be the friend of the piece she wanted to turn into her companion.

    Honestly Satoko being Lambdadelta still seems like a stretch even with the Passione anime. Everything, even Vier, points to Takano and if the GouSotsu anime was meant to convince us it did a piss poor job of erasing the connections to Takano, since we are still left with the fact Satoko is neither the type of person Lambda would deign help, nor the type of person whose actions would give birth to Lambda (yes, Satoko was obsessed but she was not truly determined considering she never even had an endgame for her plan).

    • @fernandocuauhshihuacarbaja3094
      @fernandocuauhshihuacarbaja3094 Před 2 lety +13

      Eua said that Satoko is Vier Dressing, so probably Miyo was just Vier's piece inside Higurashi, like Erika was to Bernkastel in Umineko, while Satoko was her vessel or way to manifest physiclly into that World, probably knowing that way she could become a full witch.
      Ciconia points that Vier might actually be Satoko, since she also has a "Big Brother" that she put his brain and spinal cord, and the same with the rest of her family, into a tub. It seems the code for her brother's brain and spinal cord is 3-10-4, which can be read as "Sa-to-shi" while a tank she has for herself is the next one, 3-10-5 (Sa-to-ko). Following this Lamdadelta would take the name based on her first human form, Vier Dressing who also at one point was Satoko Hojo.

      Satoko's personality during the entirety of Gou and Sotsu is 1:1 Lambdadelta's. And Lambda always had traits from both characters.
      Also, the Takano connections aren't erased, but Satoko has been directly called Vier, a Takanoface. Satoko has been linked with Takano in a matter of identity, and thus with Lambda.
