This song is actually two separate audio tracks: The introductory piece before the vocals is called "Mata no Hi ~Prologo~" and the second is, naturally, "Umineko no Naku Koro ni". Both tracks are on the single of the theme song that was released, and are sung by Shikata Akiko.
They might as well be conjoined, because uploads of just "umineko no naku koro ni" contain a bit of prologo for a split second, mistook as a thunder drum sound or a taiko, but its actually part of prologo
if you dont wanna hit replay every time it ends, you can right click on the video (on the desktop version), and select "loop"! this loops the song repeatedly!
0:10 i got goosebumps..... 0:30 i got cowbumps... 1:40 village music? 1:50 cool girl voice :D 3:15 i almost jizzed my pants..... 5:50 *ran to washroom*
1:31 Probably the hardest beat drop I've ever heard. I've had this song on my mp3 player for 14 years. I believe I got it from a mediafire link however. It's beautiful. Also the violin at 3:20 🤌
@NipahKawaiiRika This is the VN, original version of the opening. A second season of the anime will never be released, but Umineko is a story that doesn't really work animated either way.
Well, looks like 10 people won't be on their way to the Golden Land then... :P Also, these two songs are amazing :D. @sunbeami They aren't the same story, but they are linked tentatively. The common consensus, and Word Of God confirms this, is that the Higurashi series can be considered a game played between Frederica Bernkastel and Lambdadelta, and the Umineko series is a seperate thing that happens later. The anime includes a few shoutouts, like Maria watching the Higurashi anime on TV.
well Bern was born during Higurashi not before it and she claims that herself, its also mentioned by Lambda that that game gave her new witch and she was happy about it or something like that. and yeah Rika's/Berns story doesnt start at Onikakushi-hen, they were trapped in that endless repetition for about 1000 years so its possible that Bern got bored and wrote some poems meanwhile lol
no, listen carefully and compare. this one is similar to the italian version called "Rengoku", a song used for summarising the motion graphics ep 1-4. some people uploaded it, so go check it out. "One Winged Bird" was used for the anime.
5 or 6 episodes for the first arc, The Legend of the Golden Witch. They're almost done with the first game in the series (Episode 1 of the visual novel). When the Legend of the Golden Witch is over, it's going to have another "repeated" arc like Higurashi did, based on the second game, Turn of the Golden Witch. There's going to be four story arcs in the first season.
@edl01reviews I believe there was something about two Bernkastels, and the piece in Higurashi was Frederica Bernkastel, which is the one who you are talking about.
@xXBlackxXxRoseXx Actually that game keeps me confused. In one of the tea parties, forgot which. There is a hint that Lambdadelta is Satoko. But I agree with you, it would make much more sense if she's Takano. But of course, maybe she's both, in the same way as Beatrice can control all characters on the gameboard.
@xXBlackxXxRoseXx Bernkastel is the embodyment of all off the dead rika's that didn't make it past june 30th, it is said just before the wedding starts, the memory of what happened (repeating that same month tohusands of times) is what made bernkastel so cruel and cold, it is also why she desperatly seeks for a way to end her boredom, but no Bernkastel was a piece in Higurashi not a witch.
in umineko no naku koro ni, there is a character just like rika who is a witch. she is introduced after the first arc. i noticed that they have the same voice actor, hair style, eye color, and style of dress.
Yes actually Lambdadelta resembles Takano when she was young. Lambdadelta resembles Takano and Bernkastel obviously resembles Rika. Higurashi is actually a game played between Bernkastel and Lambdadelta. At the end of Kai when Rika beats Takano and defeats fate Bernkastel was considered the winner in her game against Lambdadelta.
@sunbeami No, it's just coincidence that the VNs were made by the same people and share the same name. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni and Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai = When They Cry and When They Cry 2. Umineko no Naku Koro ni and Umineko no Naku Koro ni Chiru = When They Cry 3 and When They Cry 4. (You can see this if you look at the title screen for the VNs, like what's shown on the video.) The relationships between the 2 sets aren't strong though.
@NipahKawaiiRika I'm pretty sure this song is somewhere in the Umineko visual novels. I don't know where, but there definitely isn't, and probably never going to be, a second season of Umineko no Naku Koro ni :(
Umineko no Naku Koro ni is the third VN in the Umineko series. Preceded by Higurashi no Naku Koro ni and Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai, and followed by Umineko no Naku Koro ni Chiru. :)
@193Raiden If you go by the setup of the stories, and the anime in general, it points away from Lambdadelta being Miyo, and their number similarities are just coincidental.
Lol the "music in this video" that youtube displays for this vid says it was written by dimebagDarrell, vinnie paul, and Phil anselmo. I dont think that's right.....
You don't know what it means to see this comment. The last time I came here was a month ago, so in that time I wasn't the only one to appreciate it. You know what I mean? It's like noticing a commenter you've seen before (That isn't Justin Y.) Especially if you call their attention to it, it's almost a look into your past, to see your old comments.
I don't know what the Japanese call it, but the tune is the same as "Lightly Row." The episode your're thinking of is probably episode 5, but you hear her sing it again in the fourth arc.
@tristan687 Actually there is an anime, but this is the visual novels opening. You can see the anime version in related videos. It's pretty interesting at the least. The main character has to beat a witch in a sick duel, by proving, that her locked room type murders can be achieved without magic, only by human means.
I want this soooooo bad now!!!! Where did you get it ColonelCrunchBerry!? I MUST find it! Such amazing harmonies! Not to mention the voice talent, what its about, the fact that there is a cuior backround, or that is from a game about bas ass witches who keep owning an annoying bickering family!! ITS AMAZING
@crispymongoose Try considering by appearance and relationships, too. Satoko = Lambdadelta Rika = Bernkastel Lambda and Bern are friends and so are Satoko and Rika.
for some reason Nier pops into my head every time i hear this song. i wonder if this artist had some hand in that game's soundtrack. the game would have probably been better if they used this song
@oOMaWOo no problem. I THINK they call it a sea cat because they consider the sounds a seagull makes similar to that of a cat. I think Japan is my favorite culture even before mine lol. I do love my Italian culture but my family is compeltely American-ized and the only time I get any culture is when I go to Buca de Bepo xP
In a way, yes. Frederica should be familiar to you. It's the "sequel" to Higurashi, but since Umineko isn't done, even in Japan, nobody is sure yet just what sort of connection it has to Higurashi beyond a few characters.

Oh yes, I love this intro
It's PAFECTO!!
I had chills running through me the whole 6 minutes. That's quite a musical accomplishment in my book.

Welcome to Rokkenjima.
@NipahKawaiiRika This is the VN, original version of the opening. A second season of the anime will never be released, but Umineko is a story that doesn't really work animated either way.
I love both the anime and the music.
It's a wonderful song, it mix Latin songs and japanese traditionnal style
Well, looks like 10 people won't be on their way to the Golden Land then... :P Also, these two songs are amazing :D.

"One Winged Bird" was used for the anime.
This is nothing short of epic x3 And I know that epic is a word overused on the internet nowadays, but this song truly deserves to be called that.
OHHHHHHHHHHHH BEATORICHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
ITS PERFECTO
@xkatie656 That's Shikata Akiko for you. She's really good at this kind of thing.
Came here from a Jojo ASB combo vid. Now feeling bad that I've missed VN's like these
best op in the VN
best vn in an op

Awesome music...
Thanks for uploading it!
it gives me the goosebumps
no, Katayoku no Tori is an opening for anime, this is opening for visual novel and its called "Umineko no Naku Koro Ni"...
@xXBlackxXxRoseXx Actually that game keeps me confused. In one of the tea parties, forgot which. There is a hint that Lambdadelta is Satoko. But I agree with you, it would make much more sense if she's Takano. But of course, maybe she's both, in the same way as Beatrice can control all characters on the gameboard.
@lashrymose Uhm, no. The song was made specifically for the opening of the VISUAL NOVELS. You are the confused one here.
@xXBlackxXxRoseXx Bernkastel is the embodyment of all off the dead rika's that didn't make it past june 30th, it is said just before the wedding starts, the memory of what happened (repeating that same month tohusands of times) is what made bernkastel so cruel and cold, it is also why she desperatly seeks for a way to end her boredom, but no Bernkastel was a piece in Higurashi not a witch.
in umineko no naku koro ni, there is a character just like rika who is a witch. she is introduced after the first arc. i noticed that they have the same voice actor, hair style, eye color, and style of dress.
I was actually thinking more like Higurashi was the "game" that Beatrice talks about Lamdadelta losing to Bernkastle.
Yes actually Lambdadelta resembles Takano when she was young. Lambdadelta resembles Takano and Bernkastel obviously resembles Rika. Higurashi is actually a game played between Bernkastel and Lambdadelta. At the end of Kai when Rika beats Takano and defeats fate Bernkastel was considered the winner in her game against Lambdadelta.
It's not out yet, the cd release of the full song is August 18th, so I'd check on the 20th to see if someone has posted it yet
This song is called Umineko no Naku Koro ni and the opning song of the anime is Katayoku no Tori (One-winged Bird)
@sunbeami No, it's just coincidence that the VNs were made by the same people and share the same name.
Higurashi no Naku Koro ni and Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai = When They Cry and When They Cry 2.
Umineko no Naku Koro ni and Umineko no Naku Koro ni Chiru = When They Cry 3 and When They Cry 4. (You can see this if you look at the title screen for the VNs, like what's shown on the video.)
The relationships between the 2 sets aren't strong though.

@Devilmon484 The prologue is what makes it more epic though! It builds up tension, ya' know?
Akiko shikata is AWESOME !!!!
@ColonelCrunchBerry Excellent sense you have there.
Umineko no Naku Koro ni is the third VN in the Umineko series. Preceded by Higurashi no Naku Koro ni and Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai, and followed by Umineko no Naku Koro ni Chiru. :)

@oOMaWOo it means seagull. the two words seperatly would mean sea-cat. Umi no neko would also mean sea-cat. :3
@FranziCintra Akiko Shikata - umineko no naku koro ni (that is the songs name)
when i listen to this,
its like i am going to the battle field with a rage!
Hey archrave, just commenting to show you a comment from 5 years ago. Always interesting to get that little look into your past.
@@soupgirl1864 what if he still thinks the same
@crispymongoose Try considering by appearance and relationships, too.
Satoko = Lambdadelta
Rika = Bernkastel
Lambda and Bern are friends and so are Satoko and Rika.
@kastratosephiroth you that one that start from 2:22? of course it does...
@Ishu Well, not story-wise that I've seen so far. i don't read the manga, so what's aired in Japan is as far as i am right now.
@taylorinuzuka Wait, they have Buca de Bepo in Italy?
That is somehow amazing to me.
@ColonelCrunchBerry Wait what exactly are the two songs?
@SimpleAndClean19 *_* Lo amo alla folliaaa!! xD comunque sono di palermo, sai tra poco metterò dei miei video in cui sono Roxas xD
for some reason Nier pops into my head every time i hear this song. i wonder if this artist had some hand in that game's soundtrack. the game would have probably been better if they used this song
As far as I know no, there was no overlap between Umineko and NieR’s soundtrack, but the beginning does bring to mind Deep Crimson Foe.
@oOMaWOo no problem. I THINK they call it a sea cat because they consider the sounds a seagull makes similar to that of a cat. I think Japan is my favorite culture even before mine lol. I do love my Italian culture but my family is compeltely American-ized and the only time I get any culture is when I go to Buca de Bepo xP
@CX222666 I believe the artist is Akiko Shikata. Sorry if I am wrong!
@SoundlyAwakeTonight
I thought so too!! I think it must be the finger pointing..
@nevrest Instead of questioning it, see if you can enjoy it. It's a small look into a intense story of murder, money, and magic.
I'm confused! I've never heard a second opening for Umineko before...is there another season of Umineko or something? Can someone please tell me?
It’s the opening of the visual novel “umineko no naku koro ni” a videogame It’s called “prologue “
yes ^ ^ if you seen Higurashi you will find something great from it in Umineko, but i dont know if it will be present in anime or only hinted
you can use the youtube to mp3 converter and its legal, you just need the like of the vid for the audio (not only songs) just search it with google
hey where can i get this song and other akiko shikata songs plssss help
i like this so much more than the anime op! i lov it so much it brings a tear to my eye :') *****
Any lyrics for the first part of the song? from 0.00 to 1.20
In a way, yes. Frederica should be familiar to you.
It's the "sequel" to Higurashi, but since Umineko isn't done, even in Japan, nobody is sure yet just what sort of connection it has to Higurashi beyond a few characters.
i love this show/game/maga so much!!!!!! i loves Maria!!
@nikolas1025 I think you mean Ar tonelico, well I think they are the same singers but is a different song, and Umineko is not in ps2
@EMOshoter Okay. Anyway, thanks for your previous suggestion.
i so love this....!
whats this song and can i download it anywhere??? please someone
@SoundlyAwakeTonight Yup, and when he wants to say an important thing he points with his finger too :D
This is so beautiful it gives me shivers!
isnt this song called on winged bired? or kotoyoku no tori
@GenericUsername320
Yup, exactly. We wanted more, so they just hacked some together as if to say "be careful what you wish for".
Masterpiece song. *-*
song is awesum !
very rare amongst anime songs.
ok well thnx for ur input ill have 2 watch it cuz i loved when thay cry lol
@kyatorin thank you for responding.
I think this song was called "One Winged Seagull" or "One Winged Bird" One of them is the ending and the beginning.
I think.
@xXTokyoPandaXx I see you've become afflicted with the disease too.
If only a cure wasn't so hard to find.
they are related however, neither has any direct effect on the other, both simply exist in the same universe
this song, whether its a mix or not is great
her name is Akiko Shikata
i love the beginning
this is an anime right whats it like and is it any good and were cen i find it online
@EdwardTheMagnificent ah, no no xD I live in California. But...I'm Italian. I have no idea if they have Buca de Bepo in Italy.
Remembered the first time I listened to thi song...fucking beginning sscared the shit outta me....but now this is one of my fave songs. XD
This song is really good, but do you know the name of it? O_o
I love this song.... :3
