Umineko Twilight Debauchery – 50 –The /A/nonymous Goat Orgy

In so many more levels than you’re imaging. Two more entries and it’s over. R07 the ever notorious writer behind the Naku Koro Ni series is one of the few writers who calls me names, trolls me, kicks me in the balls and still manages to have my respect.

Umineko Twilight 49 – Intellectual Masturbation (Adventures of the Cynical Detective)

He writes story about countless universes existing in a few days with knack for time-loops where nothing is what it seems and truth is stranger than fiction.  If this seems right then I got a message for you. You’re in the right place. Continue reading
