Greek Mythology

╰────── ˚✩ ༘*ೄ˚ ──────╯

Greek Mythology is a collection of narrative stories, "myths" and teachings that come from ancient Greeks usually revolving around great figures that are linked to Greece such as Gods, Goddesses, Titans, creatures and legendary heroes with some of explaining the origins and importance of their ancient society also used to be a religion in ancient Greece.

 I took these Gods, Goddesses and heroes of Greek mythology then relating it to anime by taking one anime character and one God, Goddesses or hero and finding similarities between the two through their personalities and stories

—⟪ Introduction ⟫—

I hope you enjoy this blog. This blog was so hard to think of characters in anime that related to Greek Mythology as I have the worst memory when it comes to this, so I decide to go with the some popular gods as they're are easier but I found it challenging which made it more enjoyable to write

The characters from anime I used are Kakashi from Naruto; mainly focuses on the original Naruto where Kakashi has to train Naruto and Sasuke which heavily decided their future because he had to train them effectively so they would become great ninjas. Next character I picked was Jinbei from One Piece, Madara from Naruto Shippuden; the formidable foe against the shinobi world who tries to put the whole Earth under his control which was something so horrendous that only Satan himself could do such a thing. After I decided Gintoki from Gintama as he is a child of war which had to fight for his life against the amano invaders and when even when he tries to settle down a normal life he is still donned by his past as it keeps coming back to bite him. Finally is Yumeko from Kakegurui (Compulsive Gambler) she is a gambling obsessive who always hunts for a risky situation even if the odds are against her.

—⟪ Zeus × Kakashi ⟫—

First one I picked is Kakashi and Zeus, Zeus is the almighty God of thunder and the King of all Gods or otherwise known as the chief figure in Greek Mythology just like Kakashi is the chief figure of Sasuke and Naruto who become legendary Ninjas. Zeus is portrayed with a thunderbolt in one hand just like Kakashi has a chidori in one hand.

Zeus is associated with wisdom and awareness; in retrospect Kakashi is the same in a way as he has wisdom in his prowess of his abilities in battle as he is very knowledgeable because he can copy any jutsu and Kakashi has awareness because of his Sharingan making him aware if every single thing in a battle. Zeus has authority in battle just like Kakashi has authority over Naruto and control his destiny.

—⟪ Poseidon × Jinbei ⟫—

Jinbei was in the Sun Pirates titled The "Knight Of The Sea who was apart of a formidable pirate crew that was legendary in their golden days as they ruled the seas just like Poseidon because he is God of the sea. Jinbei is a fishman so his home is the vast ocean in contrast so does Poseidon

In the past, when Jinbei was "Knight Of The Sea" he was different to his present self as he had an extremely short temper and very aggressive towards everyone; no matter friend or foe just like how Poseidon is the Greek God would start fights with other gods and be feared by some

—⟪ Hades × Madara ⟫—

Hades was a famous ruler of the fiery pits of the underworld where he tortured souls who unfortunately end up there because of his name he is associated with the connotation of "Hell" in comparison, Madara is a name that induced terror in people who heard it and he wants to reap on the shinobi world just like Hades does in his realm.

People who discovered metals underground became viewed in a negative light as underground is referred to the underworld as its known to be under the living world, so where does this compare to Madara? Well Madara used metals in his subordinates like Pain he was used to draw blood on the opposition and anyone who got in his way.

┅┅┅┅┅┅┅༻❁༺┅┅┅┅┅┅┅

—⟪ Ares × Gintoki ⟫—

Ares depicted for his destructive power capabilities, known for his viciousness and extreme brutality as Gintoki is one of the strongest samurai because he could take on an entire army in the war. He was a legend of War and had a battle frenzy, bloodthirsty past as he fought in a senseless war with no option of winning like Ares is The God Of War. Ares is never seen alone on the battlefield, he is always accompanied by a savage monstrous squad just like Gintoki used to have brutal companions such as the Old Jouishishi (Katsura, Sakamoto and Takasugi)

┅┅┅┅┅┅┅༻❁༺┅┅┅┅┅┅┅

—⟪ Tyche × Yumeko ⟫—

Tyche was the goddess of great fortune and was regarding in good favour to fortune seekers centuries ago and released ill fortune onto greedy no-gooders just like Yumeko is a savage as she always happens to sabotage mostly any opponent who deserve to be punished. She is always drawn towards great fortune so Tyche was perfect for her

Tyche is often painted as wearing a crown symbolising her wealthy riches and great fortune as said prior Yumeko always goes for the highest outcome because she always goes all out in gambling situations. Tyche is also sometimes with various devices portraying uncertainty and risk, in comparison; Yumeko always finds herself in risky conditions even if she is uncertain she goes through with it anyway

Frieren Deserves It's Acclaim

Image
 Frieren got a lot of positive reputation recently for being the highest-rated anime of all time in its time of airing during the 2nd cour. This isn’t like your typical boosted score from the season, as it’s 23 episodes in and still has a really high rating, so I started it to see why. Boy, was I blown away by the first episode. I knew Madhouse was a powerhouse of anime, and this anime finally showed the studio’s true colors. Now at first, I thought this anime would have been a generic RPG fantasy world anime, but it’s far from that. An elf that is basically immortal or ages very slowly has a party of humans and a dwarf. A few years to her seems like decades, and she goes through the loss of human life through aging; it’s kind of like Maquia, where it’s about mortality, but as a two-cour length anime. Not hitting hard but keeping the sentiment of what it is to be human with beautiful visuals, sound, and animation, with an ending song that hits you right in the heart as well. It just be

Anime Shopping Basket

 When I saw the Black Friday challenge, I saw a golden opportunity to have another blog that is outside the box, so I got to thinking about what I would buy. I got my shopping basket and went to the anime world to get the ultimate set of items. That would be practical in real life and also in an anime setting, let’s say a fantasy—for this occasion that I will be buying for my own personal benefit, to make life easier. My journey starts by going to anime land. Buying from the Overlord store. The first thing that comes to mind would be from an isekai because the genre has some busted things in it, so I picked one from the most overpowered dude in any anime, which is Ainz of the anime Overlord. The staff is golden and has jewels on it, but more importantly, its practical use is crazy; assuming it’s passed down from Ainz after the series, then it is broken as hell. It can basically buff the user to insane amounts so they are untouchable; it can also make you an admin, aka a god, and manipu

Disney & Animanga

Image
 Welcome to this special blog about the origins of animanga, one of them directly and indirectly coming from Disney themselves, way back when, when they used to be actually creative 30-80 years ago. This blog came to me when I would debate stuff with my friend and they would bring up how Disney created everything, so I decided to finally take inspiration and make a whole bonanza of a blog. Disney Influence on Animation The direct influence that’s the biggest on anime is Hayao Miyazaki, he made his start in the anime industry because of Disney works such as Snow White; he loved the movies how they were in nature that brought whimsical joy to people for all ages that watched it. After struggling with the woes of corporate studios, he went out with some ex employees of Toei such as Takahata and gave up the union they tried to fight for the rights of animators and made their own studio known as Ghibli in the 70s. Disney was a huge reason why Ghibli was made and Miyazaki being a huge activi
