I just finished playing Episode 5 and 6 of Umineko. Bernkastel is really fucked up! Lambdadelta's a lot more composed, insightful, and compassionate than I had thought. Still my favorite character and now I know she's the one that really tops in the relationship. I actually felt bad for Erika in the end when I really wasn't expecting to

I actually don't think Lambdadelta is that composed and she's definitely not compassionate. She's a witch just like Bernkastel, I just don't think she's completely cracked like Bern has. I donno, she even said it herself during Episode 6 when Battler told her she wasn't that bad and she responded with something along the lines of "If you underestimate me it'll be the worst thing you'll do." I have a feeling we have more to see from Lambda in the future. I honestly think Bern just makes her look good at this point. WHICH SAYS SOMETHING ABOUT HER.
And I loved every moment with Erika but then again she is my favorite character.

What it does come down to, though, is that they're both horrendously screwed up, difficult to understand, and Bern is by far the worse of the two.

Episodes 5 and 6 were strange for me because I really liked Bernkastel and hated Erika going into them, and that wound up reversing itself by the end. I know it's not a real redemption by any means but the scene with Dlanor trying to prove that she wasn't cheating on Erika was heartbreaking. Because of that I also ship it like burning, but that's not important. And Bern pissed me off in every way possible, but I do feel sympathetic toward her for being trapped in a logic error.
I've always loved Lambda from the start and Episode 6 only reinforced that, despite the fact that she threw popcorn at my favorite character. At this point I'm not certain if I'm in this series for the answers or just for the characters.

I feel sympathetic to some extent for Bern due to the logic error trap and being connected to Rika, but...Lambda suffered the same and isn't even a fraction as horrible. Lambda at least knows she can alleviate boredom in ways besides making people miserable.
I also shipped Dlanor/Erika by the end, especially with that scene you mentioned. And I'm sure Dlanor will (hopefully) be able to help Battler and Beatrice more in Episode 7. Dlanor being stuck under Bernkastel's thumb would...suck.
