We, fans of the When They Cry series around the world, are writing to express our sincere wish for a modern anime remake of Umineko no Naku Koro Ni — one that fully captures the depth, mystery, and emotion of the original visual novel.
Umineko is a beloved masterpiece of storytelling, and with the continued success of Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni remakes and adaptations, we believe the time is right to revisit Umineko with the animation quality and narrative fidelity it deserves.
This petition aims to demonstrate worldwide interest in an Umineko anime remake and to show that the fan community is eager to support it through official channels, including purchasing merchandise, DVDs, Blu-rays, and potentially contributing through crowdfunding if made available.
Please sign this petition to show your support for a Umineko no Naku Koro Ni anime remake!
Fans are also invited to fill out the accompanying global interest survey (link below) to provide more detailed feedback and contact information for 07th Expansion newsletters or updates. This is entirely optional.
Together, at journey's end, we shall attain to the power of the Golden Land's treasures, once and for the last time.

I really liked it's manga since I couldn't get my hand on VN. The manga made me read this series.... The narrative style, the premise, philosophy and character dynamics? Awesome... Also I want to see bernkastle and featherine animated so bad.
Un amigo me ha mostrado el manga de Umineko y me ha encantado me encantaría ver un anime que este a la altura del manga igual se que este comentario no haga mucha diferencia pero espero que su peso sea lo justo no soy ni escritor ni nada pero de verdad quiero apoyar este fandom el cual me da gusto formar parte de el - A friend showed me the Umineko manga and I loved it. I would love to see an anime that lives up to the manga. I know this comment won't make much of a difference, but I hope it's fair. I'm not a writer or anything, but I really want to support this fandom, which I'm glad to be a part of.
Higurashi had a successful anime adaptation and expansion of the story which has become a cult hit and cultural cornerstone for metamodern horror. Umineko is a story that deserves a well directed and complete adaptation as well.
Umineko genuinely changed how I process fiction as a whole. I would love to see a faithful remake of all 8 episodes that truly captures what makes the story so special to me and a lot of others across the world. This story deserves to be experieced by many more people and I think a good faith anime adaptation can achieve just that.
If this does ever happen. I hope it's not just a one to one remake of the manga but something that was truly made with love. Fluid character movements, amazing animation, and great visual symbolism and special effecta that would make every dialogue not a chore for the average viewer to watch. It's gotta be flashy and mesmerizing on top of a faithful adaptation. It's gotta be PERFECTO!!!
RAAHHH I WANT IT SO BAD
Umineko is a really good story, the only way it can get popular is by a good anime like by studio passione or studio shaft could do it.

Umineko is one of my favorite pieces of fiction ever made and I want more people to know about it It having a good anime adaptation will make it easier to reccomend to people ('cus not everyone wants to read a 120h vn) and an actual good anime adaptation has the potential to become one of the best animes ever made
