Wait.Is his name supposed to be like... Death Heaven?
>>12705387Death Evan, his name is Evan so he's the Evan of Death.
What if he's Death, even?
it's Death Evened. He's here to kill everyone, so it becomes even for all.
>>12705387His name comes from デス (death) and エバンジェリスト (evangelist). So デスエバン = Deathevan.
Death Evanescence The writer was a fan.

The translation doesn't exactly help, but the all those names are true:St. Eva is how the god is known to worshippers.Evans is the flying old man you see before the final boss scene.St. Eva Church is the religion.Death Evan is the final boss.There's also "Evanaire", which is a fake name used in the quiz section when you enter the church.
DMC1's Mundus is basically a Death Evan remix.
>>12705853There's a very strange reveal where you learn that St. Eva's real name is Evans. Which, like, what am I supposed to get out of that?
>>12705948That's for people who have looked up the sprites of the final boss on various old websites, and know that his name is Deathevan.It's there for those people, so they can go "Oh. I must be nearing the very end now."Duh.

I uh..Posted in the wrong thread.Sorry about that.>>12706032
>>12705853Even for as shit as BoF2's translation is, it for the most part also fixes up a few names Woolsey changed for no reason in BoF1 (like Wyndia instead of Winlan)
>>12705948>>12705953Actually, I think that is something else that was lost in translation. The revelation is that the god of the St.Eva Church was still alive (not "an old man in the clouds") and walking among them (Father Evans).Thread theme:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBuhQNUFCVI
>>12706963That's something that goes particularly hard about the end scenario of Breath of Fire II.Evans has just paralysed Ryu, and killed his companions before his eyes. Utterly enraged, he breaks free and rushes Evans down through a bombardment of fire blasts, and slashes Evans straight through the eye.Evans then drops his guise, revealing his true demonic form, and the final battle proceeds.Seeing it unfold is something a sprite sheet can't really convey.The ending implies that DeathEvan was not truly slain and will return (in a sort of "as long as darkness exists in mankind's heart" situation iirc), I don't recall that it was something like the party didn't defeat the true evil.
why does it have 12 dicks?
>>12707535Myria had like 12 serpents.Deathevan is like a cancer version of her.
>>12707297IIRC, Deathevan birthed the demons that still roam around in BoFIII. The demons specifically say Myria isn't their god. The only other being that could have birthed them is Deathevan.
The 2010 retranslation is Evanth not Evans which the s and the are a common error especially for 90s Capcom that didn't have a localization team for RPGs. Evanth is Evanthos, one of the names of the antichrist. Death Evanthos.
>>12707548Deatheven is her son
>>12708052Deathevan is like the manifestation of a rot.
I love BoF II.I'm glad we can talk about this series nowadays, until a few years ago it was impossible to keep a nice BoF thread going because of you know who.
>>12708110I don't know who, actually.
I only play the original SNES translation and that is what I enjoy.
>>12708074Twat? Well, you could say
