YMMV / The Sixth Gun

Go To

  • Alternative Character Interpretation: The Six themselves are sentient and seem to desire to rule their own destiny, but other than the titular Sixth, which is often actively unhelpful, they don't actually seem all that malevolent, despite assurances of their evil. We never get a look at their thought processes, and their agency is very limited to begin with, so it's hard to say just how evil they actually are. It helps that outside of when they're controlled by true malice, each of the worlds they've created, as short as the glimpses we get of them, seems better for humans than the last, given the lack of active dragons, man-eating giants, Great Wyrms, and other primordial powers is their doing. They were also drawn to human suffering, which could be interpreted as desiring to stop it. They could even be interpreted as Outdated Hero vs. Improved Society, as they originate in the prehistoric age.
  • Complete Monster: Griselda the Grey Witch is a powerful and ancient sorceress who serves the Great Wyrms. After dedicating herself to their service, Griselda began to search for the Six weapons to remake reality, razing entire cities and slaughtering countless people in the process. In the latest rebirth of the world, Griselda raped multiple slaves in an attempt to produce a son to serve as her antichrist, later unleashing her forces on a town, transforming many people into her monstrous servants and having dozens killed as a sacrifice to the seal of reality, intending on wiping out the world to rebuild it in tribute to the Great Wyrms.
