>R07: "You love Arthur Conan Doyle, Agatha Christie and Edgar Allan Poe? Come play my game! It's just like those books + anime and an awesome soundtrack" >8 episodes later >R07: "Thanks for playing my game! What do you mean you want to know the culprit's identity? That's a NO-NO! Bad reader! You're a GOAT!" What the actual fuck did he mean by this? Seriously. 16 years later and I'm still butthurt.

I've only read a little murder mystery, but isn't the culprit supposed to remain a mystery? Like even in 12 Little Niggers, the judge's suicide letter at the end is supposed to be so ridiculously convoluted that it seems like he was framed. It gives the reader more agency to use their own intelligence.

>>741138403 >I've only read a little Why bother posting about shit you don't know about when a cursory google search would tell you anyway
>>741137841(OP) ? It's been a long while, but isn't the mystery completely laid bare (both figuratively and literally by Erika gutting some aspect of Beatrice whose name escapes me) by the end of Episode 7? What else is there to care about?
>>741138403 OP is a brainlet. That aside, yes, murder mystery stories have the detective character revealing the truth at the end. You can make it a less explicit if you want, but the whole point is that a correct answer exists. It should also show you how the clues lead to that answer, ideally, so you can't say there wasn't a valid line of logic.
>>741137841(OP) you're a goat for reading through 8 episodes and still not knowing who the culprit is, i'd argue i mean did you read through EP7 and think "wow that sure was an interesting story about an entirely irrelevent person haha"

>Ange, just because our grandfather raped his own daughter, and our parents massacred the rest of our family, and our Aunt literally tried to kill a baby and murdered a maid, that doesn't mean they were bad people, Ange. >Also, there's nothing wrong with wanting to fuck your own aunts, Ange. Without love, Ange, you won't be able to understand without love
