As the current head, Kinzo holds the highest rank of all the family members. After that comes to pass, the headship will be passed down onto a successor according to a preset hierarchy. While the youngest members of the family, Kinzo's grandchildren, see it as a chance to bond and have a pleasurable time chatting about their lives, their parents, Kinzo's children, take the opportunity to debate how Kinzo's assets are to be divided after his death. The current members of the Ushiromiya family gather on Rokkenjima every year for their annual family conference. In Umineko, there is a rumor that Kinzo turned to the Golden Witch Beatrice and sold his soul for ¥20 billion worth of gold, allowing the Ushiromiya family to prosper more than it ever had before. The current head, Kinzo, was originally part of a smaller branch of the family, and it fell to him to restore the family's glory. The family was initially much greater and contained more members until the 1923 Great Kantō earthquake, after which the family was severely crippled, both domestically and financially. Rokkenjima is owned by the wealthy Ushiromiya family and serves as the home of the family head. After the eight family members arrive, a typhoon traps them on the island, and shortly after, strange things start to happen and people start dying. Also on the island are three family members who live there, five of Kinzo's servants, and his personal physician, for a total of 18 people. Kinzo is near death, and eight of his family members arrive on the island for the annual family conference, where the adults plan to discuss how Kinzo's assets will be divided once he is dead. Kinzo, the head of the wealthy Ushiromiya family, owns and resides on Rokkenjima. The series takes place on the fictional secluded island Rokkenjima in Japan, and the storyline primarily follows the Ushiromiya family during the time period of October 4 and October 5, 1986. The Umineko When They Cry visual novel series features an extensive cast of characters created and originally illustrated by 07th Expansion's Ryukishi07.
