>this piece of works made by pagan heathen chronicles Jesus' life o algo
>>221733853Metal Gear Solid is a retelling of the bible
>>221733853I'm pretty sure link was originally christian, they changed it in later games to avoid problemsthis is clearly the cross on his shield from the nes game
>>221733853
>>221733853Fantasy is heavily medieval European so if just just copy the vibes you will copy the christian themes to
>>221733916Zelda gods are all female doe
>>221733988Link is catholic
>>221734011There's no female gods in Catholicism ...is it?
>>221733885There were also the crescent and star symbols in Ocarina of Time, but they removed it, because it represented Islam
>>221733853Zelda is Buddhist, there's even a giant statue of Buddha in one of the temples.
>>221733853If he means prottie Christian no, if he means Catholic yes extremely so.

>>221733988Asherah>Astarte>Ishtar>Cybele>Diana/Hecate/Juno>Theotokos>MadonnaThere's eastern variations Vajrayogini, Kanon/Guanyin, Shekhina, Chhinnamasta, etc. There's hardly a comment about Buddhism in passing that doesn't get compared to Catholicism, especially the Tibetan varieties. Catholics and Buddhists still don't have a straight answer why the story of Buddha and Saint Josaphat is near identical.
>>221735168>JosaphatWhat?Google tells me he was a ukrainian saint
>>221735187I'm referring to the one from central Asia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barlaam_and_Josaphat
>>221735213>After astrologers predicted that his own son would some day become a Christian, the king imprisoned the young prince Josaphat, who nevertheless met the hermit Saint Barlaam and converted to Christianity. After much tribulation the young prince's father accepted the Christian faith, turned over his throne to Josaphat, and retired to the desert to become a hermit. Insane how such a obvious made up character became a saint
>>221735237For the record I think Saint Thomas is made up too and most desert fathers. Everything east of Edessa baffles me how Marco Polo even identified it as Christianity, yet later on after all of our wonderful enlightened modern perspectives it gets relabelled as Manichean or Nestorian. Mind that Erasmus was also calling early Protestants Manichean so these aren't recent terms.
>>221733853God's strongest warrior
>>221735254I wish these weird eastern cults have survived
>>221735282They did in Venice apparently I read a book about these oriental versions of Christianity and the singular frame of reference 90% of the time was always St. Mark's basilica.
>>221733885The "Magic Book" or whatever is also clearly a Bible.
>>221733853everyone is basically western i.e. christian thoughbeit except some poor people in some countries. there is a self-conscious mass psychosis worldwide over this reality.
>>221735028Ancient Cistern - The dungeon’s narrative is believed to be based on the Japanese short story "The Spider’s Thread" by Ryunosuke Akutagawa, which explores Buddhist themes of salvation and selfishness
>>221736158>The Spider's Thread (蜘蛛の糸, Kumo no Ito) is a 1918 short story by Ryūnosuke Akutagawa, first published in the children's magazine Akai Tori.[1] Its plot is identical to that of "The Spider Web", a chapter in Karma: A Story of Early Buddhism, written in 1894 by Paul Carus.I swear almost everything about modern Buddhism is reprocessed synthetic philosophy and German idealism. I know a German who is a self-proclaimed Buddhist and he quotes from Herman Hesse's Siddhartha.
>>221733885Japanese version also had a bible
>>221733853>we wuz raised in the forest, have complete mastery of all kinds of weapons, adventured around a lot, found a magic sword guarded by fairies, saved elf princess gfI cant find any of this in the bible.
>>221735066Maybe only this would make some sense
>>221737332I mean the comparison if its fits more into catholic or protestant or orthodox. Yea catholics are crypto pagans so it fits more with them.
>>221733885>avoid problemswhat's problem?The boycott of Nintendo by radical Christians?lel
>>221733853The archetype of who sacrifices self for the good of others and the world is literally a Christian 'invention'. The west was so overwhelmingly successful in the last few hundred years that even with their heretical and faulty brand of protestantism, they managed to envelop the entire world in Christian morality and milieu. Theyve been deconstructing it for the past decades but Christian effects are still felt. The concept of comicbook hero is also Christian. Pre-Christianity, the mythos around heroes in all cultures was that the hero was chasing glory and attained it.
>>221733885It's Japanese so they probably just used it because it looked cool without thinking of any deeper meaning.
>>221733853Why are shartian proddies like that?
>>221738318Well link doesnt actually sacrifice himself so its not like the lion and lambs cartoon policy where a lion cub gets mistreated by sheep but then decides to protect them from the wolf and he gets thumbs up from the sheep while fading away with a smile. Now if its the precursor to attempt such a policy is another matter.
>>221740332Basically legend of zelda and dragon quest 11 and etc could be seen as a honest "world of light" thing instead of dishonest use of the "world of ligjt" thing for different agendas, maybe, idk.
>>221740995World of light is a Persian concept originally. The idea of a suffering Christ, stigmata, and so on was introduced very late in western iconography. Compare Byzantine depictions of Christ or anything prior to the 13th century where they had triple faced images of Christ and other surreal images. The Christian idea of a suffering martyr and a world of light began with Jesus patabilis.
actually it's really all just grailslop, link is basically galahad or percival o algoshit games btw
>>221740995>dragon quest 11babby's first DQ
ugh...
>>221745190Seth was described as having red hair and Greeks described Seth as the god of the jews. Also Link is wearing a Phrygian cap like he's Perseus/Mithras the hero of light. Red hair is also the most consistent descriptor for jews throughout history.
>ganon/dorf is the incarnation of a dark deity that reincarnates every so and so eons into a desert tribe >Hylians a race of blond elves that "rule" all of hyrule through soft power have an offshoot of smart, sneaky allies that they once tortured for betrayal (before oot). An offshoot of that same tribe is again the ones who support ganon. Divine beasts even seem to have some kind of switch to where ganon somehow can take control easily over them (meaning sheikah always had a plan b or c to support ganon but decided to turn coats since link woke up,or maybe the trials are meant to kill link who knows)>Ganon calamity literally has a shaved mustache with a beard, turns into a boar in an act of rage>All the masonic symbolism in oot and majoras maskLet's face itGanon/gerudo = menaHylians = europeans particularly germanicsSheikah = jews (the japanese/buddhist symbolism for sheikah was only instated for botw and hyrule warriors, before that sheikah were racially ambiguous but close to hylians)
>>221745954Link's cap is also literally an Aryan symbol. You don't even need to breakdown Ganon.
>>221745954Another way to look at it is that sheikah are actually japanese and gerudo are ambiguous middle easterns and ganon is a jew but that makes little sense historically
>>221738318>The archetype of who sacrifices self for the good of others and the world is literally a Christian 'inventionYou have that in pagan religions as well.Tiwaz for example
>>221745548>Seth was described as having red hairThis is purely because of his connections to the "red" deserts (in contrast to the black land)
there was an altchan with a megathread going on great detail over symbolism in zelda but this is a snippet since i cant find ithttps://imgur.com/gallery/legend-of-zelda-majoras-mask-retelling-of-magic-flute-e3TPgkk#/t/freemasonhttps://imgur.com/gallery/zelda-majoras-mask-freemason-illuminati-symbolism-cC7BbBO
>>221743709Talking about catholics not orthodox
>>221745954>Hylians = europeans particularly germanicsNo lol
>>221746188What are they then
>>221746103https://levpolyakov.com/post/149756486067/i-think-ive-figured-sonic-the-hedgehog-outSonic as well. Japanese media in the 80s-2000s was full of occult symbolism. Xenogears had Ein Sof as a core component of their lore and SMT was an entire series directly revolving around blatant occult symbolism. Digimon also had a lot of Freemason symbolism, most of it was removed in the foreign localizations however.
>>221746103These two infographics are the only things worthy of being called a trvke I've seen in a long time. Please tell me there's more to this.
>>221746267Aryan, no germanics are not aryan.
>>221738434Haibane Renmei comes to mind.
