    Which mythological/religious/superstitious foundation would you find the most ripe for magecraft?

      Maybe emulating stories like Nursery Rhyme and Scheherazade do. With how much stories are worshipped even today, you are bound to get some powerful stuff. Hell, Cendrillon from A Certain Magical Index got to be a one woman army just by drawing on the power of Cinderella.

      You really have to *admire* the ability of Japanese creatives to use Judeo-Christian-Islamic mythology as inspiration for a lot of their works *without* in any way bending the knee to the tyrannical Abrahamic religions; Bayonetta being a *brilliant* example of it.
      Also, fun fact I wanna share with you even though the game's been dead for a while now; according to Angelology, Dragalia Lost sexbending Sandalphon to be female actually has a *basis* , as according to it, the two angels on the Ark of the Covenant are supposed to be the Archangels Metatron and Sandalphon representing the two sexes; Metatron the male, and Sandalphon the female. Knowing that, I have *no* idea why traditional angelologists portray Sandalphon as a *man* ; a man can't really represent the *female* to be honest, and the name Sandalphon sounds very *feminine* honestly.

    I'm impressed how well this franchise's magic system implemented Christianity as a sub-practice of Magecraft while respectfully keeping it balanced to understand.

    The Clock Tower using golems familiars as janitor is very genius idea. They don't need to pay salaries to them, give them work benefits like healthy insurance, sick paid leaves. Also, they can just make more golems if they need more manpower for their school. It's very economic cause they just need to pay salaries to the teachers and the benefits they should get from working at the schools for the Clock Tower.

    As a jew, I found this depiction of kabbalah fascinating, although hebrew is read right to left, and by the names of the sephiroth, you put the characters left to right, resulting in them being backwards. Still, great work as always!

    Las time I was so early Hebrew was still considered a newcomer Semitic language and numerology was done in cuneiform.
    Last time I was so early the Tree of Life was planted, not depicted.
    Last time I was so early the names of god retained Mystery even if used quite a lot (it was the AoG).

    • @otakudaikun
      @otakudaikun  ปีที่แล้ว +18

      I really should have. It's amazing how few resources I found mentioned it either. In the nasuverse it's part of Abby's NP, but she's tied to an outer gods, not Judaism. People are drawing parallels between the beasts and Qliphoth, though I can't verify any of that.

    What do you think would happen if there was a large and powerful group of ordinary people without the ability to use magecraft completely dedicated to trying to learn as much about the supernatural world as possible let's say this group is large enough two the point that if they got completely wiped out people would notice how would group's like the mage association deal with that I think it would make for an interesting story.

    I wonder did Yahweh exist in Nasuverse.
    Sometime is weird to me ark of covenant and solomon ring exist in Nasuverse. It hint the existence of their god because Ark of covenant power derive from Yahweh name dwelling in that box ( Deuteronomistic name theology), solomon ring also.

      I guess Yahweh exists in the Nasuverse as much other godly beings like Odin or Isthar exist too at the same time. Is just because is part of a wellknown religion that makes it harder to depict without offending anyone. But then we have things like Quetzalcoalt with tits, so...

      Maybe it goes with fairy tale logic, where you, like the protagonist of such stories, had to figure out things rather than being told what to do or what it is. And you still cannot tell your own pupils how to solve it either ur otherwise they cannot learn by themselves.
