A compilation of comedic and serious Umineko no Naku Koro ni short stories originally released at fan events and in the Shinsou Kaimei Dokuhon guidebooks, which were later adapted into Umineko no Naku Koro ni Tsubasa. Also includes a newly written short story meant to be a prologue to Hotarubi no Tomoru Koro ni.

Первая половина «Главы об убийстве кошки» происходит в школьном клубе, где Мион, Рика, Сатоко, Рэна и Кэйити играют в покер и делают весьма необычные ставки. Во второй половине истории, завершив игру и шагая по деревне, они внезапно решают пойти в Ягоути — печально известное место в самой глуши горного леса недалеко от Хинамидзавы. Там Мион рассказывает, что случилось рядом с карьером Ягоути семь лет назад и о детях, решивших поиграть рядом с «ямой»...

После недавнего переезда в деревушку Хинамидзава, Кэйити Маэбара присоединяется к школьному клубу и заводит новых друзей. Вскоре он узнаёт о страшной тайне деревни — о проклятии Оясиро, когда каждый год один человек умирает и один человек исчезает. Со временем Кэйити начинает подозревать своих новых друзей в причастности к этому...

By this chapter, the reader should have an overall idea of how life in Hinamizawa is like. Once again, this chapter begins innocently, with the Watanagashi Festival again marking the start of the sinister events in Hinamizawa. An ancient curse strikes, and a pair of sisters are not what they seem. Shion Sonozaki makes her first appearance in this chapter, while Mion Sonozaki is portrayed as the villain.

In Tatarigoroshi-hen, Keiichi and Satoko develop a brother-sister relationship so when Satoko's abusive uncle returns to Hinamizawa, Keiichi attempts to help Satoko with drastic measures. However, as more and more people die, it is clear he is not the only one involved. This time, the spotlight shines on Satoko Houjou as being the "victim". Keiichi Maebara's passion to protect Satoko turns him into an unknowing villain in this chapter.

On the surface, Minagoroshi-hen is the solution to Tatarigoroshi-hen; however, it answers most of the major common mysteries of the previous arcs. It is told from the perspective of Rika Furude. Most notably, the true identity of the murderer is finally revealed in Minagoroshi-hen. After Minagoroshi-hen, one more effort is needed to seal the story into a happy ending.

In Minagoroshi-hen, the mastermind of the murders was revealed. This time, all the pieces of the puzzle are in place. The last step for the characters to take is putting the pieces together in order to defeat the culprit, obtain the miracle, and break through the barrier of June 1983. Matsuribayashi-hen is a "Good End" in which no major deaths occur in that June, although the deaths in previous years still occurred.

Tsumiboroshi-hen is the answer arc corresponding to Onikakushi-hen. Unlike Meakashi-hen, Tsumihoroboshi-hen's story is drastically different from the plot of its question arc. In Tsumihoroboshi-hen, Rena experiences a situation similar to Keiichi's in Onikakushi-hen, as she makes a terrible mistake and becomes distrustful of her former friends. It is the first chapter with a (seemingly) happy ending, although the Tips reveal a sinister twist.

Октябрь 1986 года, небольшой изолированный остров Роккенджима. Семья миллионеров Уширомия собралась на ежегодное семейное собрание. На повестке дня — наследство главы острова, Кинзо Уширомии, который находится при смерти. Взрослые пытаются поделить деньги, а дети невинно радуются воссоединению. Однако, когда Роккенджиму настигает тайфун, легенда о ведьме оживает и поднимается занавес трагедии, от которой стынет кровь.

Saikoroshi-hen is an epilogue of Matsuribayashi-hen which takes place two months later, in August 1983. Rika is run over by a truck and wakes up in a totally different world, where none of the tragic events of the main series ever happened: Keiichi is not in Hinamizawa, Rena's parents did not divorce, the dam project was resolved smoothly, Satoshi did not run away, and neither Satoko nor Rika's parents died. However the club never formed, meaning Rika has no friends, she gets bullied by Satoko, Hanyū is absent, Rika is not revered as the reincarnation of Oyashiro and the village will soon be submerged underwater. Rika has to choose between staying in that world or killing her own mother, which…
