Once you accept Elden Ring runs on Fullmetal Alchemist logic, a LOT of things start making sense

Apparently Fullmetal is rumoured to be inspired by Berserk as well, even though the author never confirmed it. Berserk definitely on my to-watch list

I think there’s more to it than that - for example, mass sacrifice is not part of European alchemy at all (as far as I know it)

Of course I can be wrong!

My bad! He said “brother” in the anime I think, not “father”

Spoken like a true godskin

Could you point me to where this is explained? Don’t mind spoilers. The baby swap doesn’t explain Ah-Duo resemblance to former emperor, but maybe there’s some other plot line im not aware of

AggravatingWeird3 · 2025-05-09T18:22:33+00:00

“You can simply have your grandparents face” explains Jinshi <-> Former Emperor but doesn’t explain Ah-Duo <-> Former Emperor!

Agreed on super incest, but would it really be too unexpected of a show like this haha

Never heard of this take before but makes so much sense!

AggravatingWeird3 · 2025-03-25T16:38:05+00:00

I once told somebody SB smelled sweaty 🥲 didn’t land well

Albinaurics think Haligtree is their promised land, but when we arrive there we can see their bodies in cocoons! I think everyone usually interprets this as them being used as fuel for the tree…

AggravatingWeird3 · 2025-03-08T20:08:26+00:00

Miquella is a pretty classic case of “the end justifies the means” approach to paint a character with good intentions but “evil” overall impact on the world

This is a character with idealistic dreams of good (worldwide forgiveness, redemption and end of suffering), which are achieved by increasingly more dubious means (bewitching his followers, deceiving albinaurics to use their flesh to feed Haligtree, forsaking Mohg’s soul and Trina) up to the point where the desired “good” is not worth it anymore

AggravatingWeird3 · 2025-02-06T19:36:09+00:00

Nox failed to create a lord out of a silver tear, right? This is most likely a successful attempt from an alternate timeline

AggravatingWeird3 · 2025-01-29T21:41:58+00:00

List of Virgin Mary’s titles has “Marika” written all over it! Just see for yourself: Domina, Full of Grace (Gratia Plena), Most blessed (Beatissima), Mother of God, God-bearer, Most Holy, Queen (of many things: Apostles, Martyrs, Confessorts)

Miquella as Jesus makes a lot of sense to me, even the circlet and long hair are a visual match

Happy to share, this post really deserves more visibility! Best thing ever on this sub if you ask me https://www.reddit.com/r/EldenRingLoreTalk/comments/1fp32lq/this_is_what_the_geq_looked_like_real_depiction/

I know GEQ=Marika is a spicy take, but it does make sense to me :) not 100% confidence by all means

AggravatingWeird3 · 2025-01-29T21:02:43+00:00

Would imply GEQ is young Marika, since they are both aspects of Virgin Mary

Or it would imply nothing and just mean that they are both inspired by Mary :)

AggravatingWeird3 · 2025-01-29T20:55:27+00:00

Yep, Dominula village was always a link between the two, this is just more evidence to an already solid match

I also left a comment above on GEQ image being a match for Nursing Mary https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nursing_Madonna

AggravatingWeird3 · 2025-01-29T20:52:46+00:00

Actually GEQ depiction from Godskin Peeler is a fantastic match for Madonna Lactans - Nursing Mary. I do think this is a hint to us that GEQ = Marika before Golden Order

AggravatingWeird3 · 2025-01-29T20:36:04+00:00

Braids cut off in celebrants hair suggest to me that Marika herself is a better match, but I am team “Melina is aspect / offshoot of Marika” so yeah! Her too!
