Something I have also observed is the hatred at lot of "new money" parents feel towards their children, who grew up with privilege they never had. I do feel that Kinzo is nicer to the servants because he respects their struggle.

Years later, I still think about how Jessica laughs while telling her cousins that Kinzo slaps Krauss at the dinner table when he's displeased, up until the day he dies.

I know that Genji's character is largely panned because he and Kumasawa hid Yasu away as a maid, but I'm starting to think that it was tragically her best option. Genji and Kumasawa want Yasu to inherit Kinzo's money. They don't want to send a baby into the Japanese fostercare system-- who knows what awaits her there. Ryukishi does a very good job outlining in Higurashi book 3 why people can be hesitant to trust that system as even if it's for selfish reasons, once that child is gone, they're gone. You can't help them.

Umineko has a central theme that child abuse is projected self hatred at its most extreme. The child comes from you, actually or metaphorically. You shape them in your image. Harming them is like self harm. it's partially about the self-perpetuated agony of hurting an innocent thing, of making a bad situation worse for yourself and actualizing yourself as an unlovable monster.

Eva becomes an abuser to Ange at her lowest point, convinced she's responsible for the massacre itself. It's maybe too painful for Ange to love her. Natsuhi is abusive to Yasu because she feels unworthy of a child, it's how she's been made to feel. She becomes a reformed abuser, not rly when she has a baby, but when she learns how to self-soothe (represented with her self-talks with Beatrice). Rosa is the closest to Kinzo. In a way, maybe she mirrors Kinzo's former position as the inconsequential child with no expectations, overlooked and constantly seething at her lot in life, unable to move on from her lost love, someone who craves freedom and loathes responsibility. Paradoxically, she is the kindest adult relative even when she's tormenting the person she's responsible for.

Kinzo wouldn't treat Yasu better if he knew about her parentage. The Lion scenario is probably a big farce. It was unfortunately always within Yasu's best interest to be not far but not close to him either, so he could see her as just a child, not someone that resembled him or represented his failures as a human.

My head canon is that Ange manifested memories of Battler being gay to feel closer to him (as she is gay herself). She was deeply unnerved by straight Battler. She has reinvented him as a twink post-death.
