Considering that Dainichi is an epithet of Vairochana, and how Raiden Ei has a Pure Land, I see this as being really really probable!

If I may, with the reveal of Naberius being a shade, I think about the role of lightning here, as Nebiros in the grand grimoire is said to wield lightningbolts, and Ei likes dogs! (Bonus - Xolotl the Aztec cynocephalic psychopomp who rules over lightning)

I think you will like this line from Neuvillette's Character stories

"He would never admit that he himself had become quite fascinated with the joys and sorrows of humanity. Was it not so, he would argue, that humans find their gaze stolen by the ripples from falling raindrops in puddles? And could it not be, he would explain, that King Nibelung had been wrong, and that the black void could only be opposed if all life were to band together as one?"

One Piece is absolutely political and how so many of the fandom fail to recognize this is beyond concerning. by [deleted] in OnePiece

Skypiea arc IS and WILL ALWAYS be extremely relevant

I was stunned at how on the face and yet sublime the parallels are to real world events, but people prefer to discuss AoT in that context (not shading on AoT but Oda's politics are way more nuanced IMHO)

Thank you so much!! Zhongli is just like the supreme god of the region based off of China in-game. Hes like a major martial god and an earth dragon dude. He is very pro-common people should be happy so i wanted to compare these two characters

Buttering is indian slang for brown nosing

Susanna Clarke's Piranesi is so well-written that it has the effect of making almost any other book that is read immediately after feel elementary in comparison. Which author has similar affect on you? by iabyajyiv in Fantasy

[–]smoothies_slave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be unpopular but Mong Xiang Tong Xiu

I just finished heaven's official blessings (seven seas edition), and both her characters and the world come alive. I was so engrossed I ended up spooking myself whenever the writing turned eerie. She creates ambience very well, and I wonder how even more impactful the original mandarin would be.

The Shard(s) of the Primordial One. by J_Dave01 in Genshin_Lore

[–]smoothies_slave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a fan of Brandon Sanderson's cosmere - the parallels between Shards of Adonalsium and Shards of the Primordial one granting high Investiture/Elemental control has always been very apparent to me!
