Witness The Power Of The... Suicide Squad?
did the Indian lostbelt give us any specific info on the characteristics of the Indian Texture?

OK, I'mma just leave this here.
The Fuyuki Singularity is gonna end up being the root of everything that happens in FGO, and it'll have been caused by Marisbury winning the Grail War. So in the end we will have to defeat him and undo his victory, which of course means Chaldea will never have existed. Everything that happened in the game will be undone, but everyone will be like 'it's the only way to restore the world hoo bloo bloo'.
Solomon will be the final boss of the game.
If I'm right, I'll give myself a cookie.
I'll be honest, I'm surprise that Bradamante mentioning Demogorgon on her interlude didn't spanned some theories. Specially considering Demogorgon's conection with Demiurge. Actually, aren't even some Alien God = Demiurge theories out there? He sounds like a very good possible candidate for the Alien God's identity among the many theories there are about it
besides the cycles of destruction and rebirth, doesnt Hinduism also refference the concept of higher realms of existence, as i believe was mentioned in Helena's profile?
were there any refferences to that topic or that aspect of the texture?
So, Demon God will turn out to be a purple-haired loli, I see...
Not exactly this but there are in fact a lot of theories that involve Fuyuki or try to place it at the center of it all somehow. It mostly comes down to the fact that Fuyuki is like conceptually all burning even long after the human order should've constructed itself. The only thing I don't really know how to fit in cleanly is how that would work now that the world is bleached, cuz like, no matter what was in fuyuki it should be gone now.
Don't know of any specifically like that, but the demiurge is sometimes linked to the devil, so there's that connection to make with the alien god already.
I don't really know what to make of the connection with Pan here tho lmao
Hermes is mysteriously absent from LB5 if that counts
Sorry, I meant interlude.
As per my translation,
my magnanimous mind=吾輩
king (of evil)=余
the decrepit=拙
Ah okay, then that fits even better with the fact that it's only watashi for the internal thought sections.
This is interesting, since Hermes is a really well known god after all.
Actually, come to think of it, the connection to Hermes' Pan from the demogorgon is actually easy to incorporate with the previous (great god pan & shub-niggurath) stuff. If Shub-Niggurath = Pan, and Holmes either is Pan or is at least directly linked to him in some sense (since for the most part these crack theories are trying to figure out the identity of whatever is inside/possessing/actually Holmes), then that means that Holmes=Pan has a direct connection with Demogorgon=Demiurge=Satan=Alien God, through this weird-ass misreading parentage thing. Of course, this sort of changes the whole crack from "holmes is directly linked to the alien god" to "holmes is directly linked to a lovecraft god and is only tangentially related to the alien god". Nonetheless, it's an interesting addition, and what I find most fun about this is that all this stuff keeps very easily looping back into each other.

Also in all this, can't forget that there are in fact actually books where Holmes encounters Lovecraft mythos
Being the uncultured swine I am, I saw this all leading back to "Pan" and got exicted for Servant Peter Pan with his Reality Marble Noble Phantasm "Never-Never Land".
Now I am sad.
If it makes you feel any less uncultured, I'm looking at least half of this stuff up as I go. This stuff isn't exactly my primary field of expertise (except demigorgon maybe), so I'm really just winging it with pretty basic stuff for now.
To be honest "pan-human history" always just sounded a bit nonsensical
Hermes is also a son of Zeus, who's to say he even existed in LB5's timeline to begin with?
I definitely agree, but a translation should make just as much sense as its original, which "Pan-human history" does.
And apparently Ariosto wrote that Demogorgon's palace is located on the Himalayas
And Demiurge is linked to Sanat Kumara as well, so in the end we come back full cycle
Whatever the case, regarding the Alien God's identity, my personal theory for now is gonna be Sanat Kumara/Demiurge until we finally get the reveal or more concrete info
Could you elaborate please? What's so nonsensical about the Japanese term?
No reason other than "no one has a clue why they picked this word specifically". Honestly, Pan-human History is a translation that captures all this nuance without me needing to explain anything.
汎 is the prefix used in words like panpsychism, pantheism, pan-European, panlogism, etc. That is, the prefix indicating something as generically applicable to all purpose. Seeing the definition of Pan-human History as "the correct history", the most logical route would be calling it Proper Human History like NA did. And yet Nasu picked a name with a meaning to closer to "human history in a broader sense". It's a curveball choice to avoid picking the low-hanging fruit, so there's clearly an intention behind it, but no one is taking any good guesses to what this intention is.
But of course, this could be not a lore-related name choice at all, just a name picked to suit Cosmos in the Lostbelt's core theme of "don't think you're the only right one".
