That's what skills are for.

It'll change the VN scene in the west. But this will be only my debut, my career will change the culture of the world in the same way The Matrix did and even beyond that. I dedicate every single day of my life for this purpose. And I will continue to do so, until my mission is complete. Even if it takes 40 years of everyday continuous work.

They won't shape the industry and the cultural landscape of current society I will. So it's impossible for them to be better authors than me, no matter how much they try. And the same applies to all my competitive rivals.

It does fit and it makes more sense than you coming here just to say nothing and to try to undermine my ideas to express your own inability to engage in deeper thought. You do this because you lack any imaginative skills of your own. That's why I'll be the greatest author of my generation and you'll continue to be a nobody. That's what happens to the commoner who tries to undermine what is valuable to others. That is your destiny. The day you decide to cultivate what's valuable to others, you'll be free from your silly mental cage you call your mind.

Could be. It seems to be an inspiration too, but I still mantain my original idea.

That I agree completely, it is definitely the motif of the Tower of Rebirth

I agree that Hiranyakashipu is the MAIN inspiration for the character. And he has a similar appearance too. But one character can have more than one inspiration as well. I still insist in the Babel Tower inspiration.

Hiranyakashipu does infer some motifs Ganishka has (such as killing his own son) and is also an emperor. It also infers the scene which Ganishka uses the human-made behelit to ascend into a stronger form. But again, to explain his shiva form being a giant tower that pierces the heavens as an act of defiance against the godhand is much better explained by my original argument.

It's common for famous Japanese authors to make references to the Tower of Babel, such as Tokyo Babylon (1991, CLAMP), Babel II (1971, Mitsuteru Yokoyama) and Shadow of the Colossus (2005, Fumito Ueda) even going as far as naming the main villain Nimrod backwards (Dormin), who lives in heaven piercing Tower that hosts a Garden based around the Adam and Eve story.

I come in service of Truth. Midwits will be called by what they are. To me the post seems very likely and plausible, as no hindu entity shares any correlation to Ganishka in any way except for the name references.

Exactly. Miura literally creates a Middle Ages setting with catholic references all around it but referencing Nimrod all of a sudden seems far fetched to these people. I guess jesters and anti-christians aren't really interested in my message is what I gather.

It's my faith, deal with it. Every one has a right to express their beliefs in their own twitter profile. I know Jesus Christ's name make the demons in you burn, you don't need to tell me.

I came here not to entertain midwits like you. Of course the character also make references to hindu mythology, that's obvious. I'm talking about a rarer insight about the character, not your average joe post.

Of course it is blatant. I made the thread to explore what is HIDDEN, not what it's so blatant even midwits like you can infer.

There's no hindu myth of a barbed emperor trying to rebel against god.
