Poor McJon.
Poor McJon.
He never sleeps. He never dies.
Battle doesn't need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don't ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don't ask why I fight.
His inability to understand is beyond his power to help alleviate so instead he's being difficult on purpose.Originally Posted by Mcjon01
What T-M works are featured on this banner? (without spoiling)
Fate series.
SN, Zero, Apocrypha, Extra.
Linger: Complete. August, 1995. I met him. A branch off Part 3. Mikiya keeps his promise to meet Azaka, and meets again with that mysterious girl he once found in the rain.
Shinkai: Set in the Edo period. DHO-centric. As mysterious figures gather in the city, a young woman unearths the dark secrets of the Asakami family.
The Dollkeeper: A Fate side-story. The memoirs of the last tuner of the Einzberns. A record of the end of a family.
Overcount 2030: Extra x Notes. A girl with no memories is found by a nameless soldier, and wakes up to a world of war.
Not Extra, Apocrypha, stay night, Apocrypha, stay night?
Doesn't he show up in both wars?
Maybe he isn't aware that they are literally from two different mythologies?
No.
Eh, in either case, something was rent asunder. Close enough, right?
I am sorry that you're wrong, picking and choosing what happened according to what you want to have happened, and are beating a dead horse because you're being an obstinate brick wall. The whole point to start was because of how stupid the claims of Gilgamesh's Ea creating the world was (as in the TM one), and how it was mixing and matching different mythologies.
Hey, Leo. Are you still butthurt over those spacebattlers? Curious.
I'm aware which is why I am curious as to why you guys feel the need to cut and paste them together into some macabre abomination.
It's called syncretism, and when you have an "all myths are true" kind of setting it's a given.
I mean it's not like that's the worst example. Why Ea and not Enki? Why Gate of Babylon and not Uruk? Why El Kid instead of Enkidu? Why do the Arthurian heroes draw from an unholy mishmash of sources?

don't quote me on this
I don't even give a shit about the Nasuverse right now, I'm just saying if I see you drop that stupid fucking line about how separating isn't creating one more time I'll punch your fookin teeth in (I swear on me mum).
Doesn't stop it from being a caricature. I see what you're trying to say though. It's all true so the Ea that Gilgamesh has must have separated the earth and sky whatever that means. We already knew it could warp and destroy space, as well as open a fissure to when earth was primordial it's really just easier to go by what we see rather than something that happened off-screen.
It's because Nasu needed to appeal to a certain distasteful demographic in order to make money. That's one obvious. Same reason why Jack the Ripper was made into a loli by Higashide.I mean it's not like that's the worst example. Why Ea and not Enki? Why Gate of Babylon and not Uruk? Why El Kid instead of Enkidu?

Separating isn't creating. When you separate something, you take one object and split it into two. When you create something, you start with nothing and make something out of it.
So when I split a ball in two, I have not created two halves?
who the fuck cares
Someone remind me, is simply passing prana through something distinct from Reinforcement?

You know if we really want to nitpick, why is it Ea rather than Enki? Seems kind of odd as Nasu seems to know about that with the Prototype Gil. Maybe it is just some weird Nasuverse mythological thing.
That's how this all started though.
Also, separating isn't creating unless you interpret it as such bring it on. There I said it again. I got the oil let's lube up and wrestle to the death this is only way we can settle this.
WE SETTLE THIS LIKE REAL MEN, MCJON
4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
Presumably because Ea is the name used in the source from which he derived the Sword of Rupture.
IIRC arai once noted that he found a Japanese "mythological objects" book which described the "sword" from the Song of Ullikummi as "Ea's Sword".
It wouldn't be a stretch to assume Nasu used something like that as his source.
