Character: Ushiromiya Battler
Series: Umineko no Naku Koro ni
Character Age: 18
Canon: The setting: the Ushiromiya family conference on the private island of Rokkenjima, 1986, haunted by the legend of the Golden Witch, Beatrice. The scenario: 18 people are trapped on the island during a typhoon, with an unknown force killing them off ritualistically. The question: is this murderer the witch Beatrice, as she claims? Or is it one of the 18 on the island? Ushiromiya Battler, the story's protagonist, is in staunch denial of Beatrice's existence. A reader of mystery novels and a fan of thinking outside the box to find "realistic" solutions, he can't accept that the murders taking place are magical. Even when Beatrice brings him to another, meta-world to make a formalized game of his denial, he refuses to accept it as anything but just another trick. Battler is now locked in this timeless "game" that treats human lives like chess pieces, where his role is to keep denying the witch and explain how such gruesome and fantastical phenomena could be the work of mere humans.
Needless to say, Battler can be particularly stubborn and obtuse, but if nothing else, it allows him to keep fighting against ridiculous odds. Originally he denied the witch out of ignorance and outrage, but he has come to understand the game, and denial has become his weapon to defend himself and others. He devotes himself to his battles of logic with the witch, and he won't hesitate to take the most ridiculously unlikely option as long as it's technically possible and works in his favor (see: “they ingested small bombs so the murderer wasn’t present!”). But although he's naturally a little traumatized and offended by the repeated sadistic murders, on a day-to-day basis he’s lighthearted, and likes to joke around, act cool, and hit on women in a shamelessly overblown manner. He has a cheeky "ihihihihi" laugh, a catchphrase: "It's useless! It's all useless!", and the shared tendency of all Umineko characters to sometimes draaaag out his wooooorrrrddss.
Some notes: through the power of the meta-world, in Umineko, everything written in red is true, without question. For those in the know, Battler is being taken from the end of EP4.

You really didn't pull any stops with this game board, huh? It's different, it's completely different! Something as random as a farm is still a welcome change from always being on that stuffy rainy island. Rather than torture, it's like a vacation~, ihihihihi. But even if it's a new game board... I don't know how I feel about this Lady Elizabeth Sayre running it. Entrusting my fate to someone I haven't even seen leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Heyyyy, Lady Elizabeth, come out here and let me have a good close look at your tits, and then I'll accept you as a rival, okaaaay? --Whoa, whoa! You and your big purple bodyguards sure get straight to the point... Heh, if I have no choice, I'll take you on seriously. I've already studied all the basic details of this game. I’m prepared to knock down every illusion of magic you have! You'll regret your high-and-mighty arrogant attitude!
First of all, I hope you don't expect me to just accept that these gorillas are magic just because they're purple. Of course they're dyed or purposefully bred. Toucans aren't that strange either. Even if they belong in the jungle, it's not impossible for them to be here! You say they're psychic? That's just like the case of the horse who supposedly knew math! He was only responding to emotional cues most humans can't perceive! E-Even if it sounds like they're talking in my head right now, this is probably just being projected from some kind of speaker! Though it seems like I'm the only one that hears the toucans, it's impossible for me to prove that no one else can hear them. And isn't it conclusively proven that this camp has a network of speakers designed so they can be heard anywhere? Not to mention, since Elizabeth Sayre's location is officially unknown, our Liz could easily be the culprit! Aahh, it's useless, it's all useless! It's not too late to show up in person and save yourself. I won't expose all your illusions if you expose your American chest just once, ihihihi! But you better show up soon, or I’ll keep destroying the rest of your pieces!
Let’s see... A tentacle monster is child's play. It’s here because of breeding again, or possibly overexposure to radiation. There is also the possibility of Unknown Deep-Sea Creature X, which has lived at the bottom of the ocean all along, but limitations on exploring very deep water prevented its discovery until now! Next! If you're going to ask me why people seem to come back from the dead, I'll stop you right there and explain that unless an autopsy is done at the time of death, you can't determine they died in the first place. The looping barrier effect is pretty impressive... I'd say it's your best trick. But even something like that can be pulled off by mirrors and holograms, or even an unknown chemical that causes disorientation and hallucination!! This is check, Elizabeth Saaayre!! What's wrong? If you don't refute any of my claims and make your move now, it'll become checkmate for you! This is my victory! Magic definitely does not exist in Camp Fuck You Die!
...Ooh! Delivering your move from afar in your own special envelope... You have a stylish sensibility, Liz, even if it's still disappointing. Let's see... Y, "You just lost the game...!?" Whaaat, who would ever go along with such an unsatisfying conclusioooon?! But suddenly any argument I can make is impossible... Aaahhhh, it's useless, it's all useleeeeeeeeeessssss!!
