Umineko: When They Cry - S01

Umineko no Naku Koro ni is seen as the third entry in 07th Expansion's very popular When They Cry series, and it unfolds on Rokkenjima, an island owned by the enormously wealthy Ushiromiya family. Every year, the whole family gathers there for a conference to talk over each person's current financial situation. Since the family head is in poor health, this year's gathering also covers who will inherit his fortune and how it will be divided. What the family does not know is that dividing his wealth is the last thing on Ushiromiya Kinzou's mind at this year's conference. After his old friend and doctor tells him his end is near, Kinzou desperately wants to see his one true love again: the Golden Witch, Beatrice. Having thrown himself into black magic over many of his later years, Kinzou starts a ceremony to bring his beloved back just as the family reaches Rokkenjima. Not long after, a fierce typhoon traps everyone on the island, and a series of strange murders begins, forcing the eighteen people there to fight for their lives in a deadly struggle between fantasy and reality.
