Wait, weren't they killed by Velber or Altera?

Edit:

I had a feeling this would happen.

Instead of focusing on relatives that divide us, maybe we should try to find the absolutes that tie us.

Velber killed a bunch but some like Babylonia Gods survive.

Then they reincarnated either as Bunreis or some other forms ala the Twelve Pillars becoming the Olympians and the Roman Gods long after they died.

"Also, you guys noticed Brada's artwork doesn't match the proportions on her sprite?"

The sprites have never seemed to fully match the character artwork other than Takashi Takeuchi's work, due to all of them looking to match that style even though the character artwork is widely varied. I think the only true exception is Paul Bunyan, since she still looks like she was designed by Riyo.

"I love how thread's general opinion on Bradamante is 'At least she has a nice personality'."

Nah, the general opinion is 'Well, my snarkiness WAS getting rusty.".

">the lance is just a lance"

Just because you're correct doesn't mean you're right!

"Nah, BB is Hakuno's kouhai, Ritsuka's just the second-rate subistitute until she can reunite with him."

Still holding out hope for a Hakuno Pseudo-Servant.

"Tangent here, for those playing JP, is there any chance that Quetz's tournament ends up in a Surprise Creepy scenario?"

Yes, it'll end with Bradamante facing against the true horror of the Nasuverse...people who complain about fanservice! *Gasp!*

"She fused with Pele."

I'm now wondering if Pele will appear in the next summer Event...

[up][up][up]That makes more sense. The White Titan killed most of the originals, and the ones that came afterward were "created" by human belief as either reincarnations or aspects of the originals.

You know, I think the reason why we don't see Nasu going more deeply into the Abrahamic religions is because of the massive Continuity Snarl he would hit if he's not careful.

You'd think with as much as Omega brings it up, he's the one with the fetish for fucking pig s, not BB.

A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.

aren't the Babylonians/Sumerian gods also aliens, what with Tiamat being compared to a terraforming ship?

I'm pretty sure that's just a comparison the text uses to make more sense of the whole thing.

Besides, at the end of the day, magical terraforming and normal terraforming yields the same results.

Might be reading too much into it but Evil Quetz having a spider web pattern for her mask stood out since I don't think Quetzalcoatl had any associations with spiders in legend

No, spiders have always been more of a Tezcatlipoca symbol.

like, I'm pretty sure Ishtar's bow is called a spaceship quite a few times.

Nasu should just make a big list of alien and non alien gods. There's like, what, the Gorgons and Pele for certain as locals?

Skipping ahead, if the spider means anything it's Tezcatlipoca. Quetz hates spiders.

Relatedly, do we know for sure who Jaguarman is? I would think Tezcatlipoca just due to his connection to jaguars.

It's been fun.

#29393: Dec 12th 2018 at 4:27:24 PM

Jaguarman is an avatar of Nagual, who is also Tezcatlipoca through syncretism. Hence why his little (one-sided) rivalry with Quetz.

I just did Altera's Interlude. Seigfried and Altera have the same wife through syncretism.

Wow.

No, higher bond level just means bigger damage bonus. It's not necessary.
