"you shall not pass?"

Gandalf ? is that you?

 

[Siquall]

I fear for him.

After this flashback, there is no way he will get a clean fight if he win.

And if he loose against Jack...Oh boy.

 

[Centurionzo]

How that hell did Zeus ever maintained his marriage with Hera ?

Also yeah, I don't think that we get a good outcome in this fight, also how could Jack the Ripper win this fight ?

”Hercules' weakness was his temper and lack of intelligence. He was notorious for getting himself into trouble because of his temper.”


Oh boy....this aint gonna end well, if hes going against the notorious serial killer and mastermind.

 

[Hounder]

This could be a case of even if Heracles wins, he loses.

 

[KageKaiser]

I wonder if Castor is watching the fight.

 

[FrostBlood]

You know herc's gonna die if Ares was relatively even with him, just like real Ares lmao always losing
Also in this Canon poseidon is allegedly the strongest/second so the dumb brute with nothing but pride is gonna die

 

[Harouki]

Inb4 Herc loses because people start calling him a traitor to humanity or something.

Think about it, he was all about humanity and now he’s fighting so that humanity will be exterminated

 

[PerHpY]

He’s 100% gonna die to Jack since he got his backstory that fast in the fight.

 

[permisan]

hoooooooly shit how stupid was that turn.
(1) you gods are all willynilly and have absolutely zero moral compass or anything related, you would just kill whatever regardless of how much they actually strive towards good etc etc (2) I'll become a god, pursuer of "justice" (which you just showed they DO NOT give one crap about), (3) now fight for the total annihilation of humanity. Swell. Even worse, it seems he was just a straight human before "deified" (so theres no, "inner turmoil" b/t his god-human sides) .... like, way to sell out your home team hercules.


@KageKaiser castor def gonna be in audience. Heracles-sama! kill humanity! wait--

 

[NIB]

Heracles' gonna to die in a most poetic way, I can see it by a mile.

 

[Taco-chan]

That time Gandalf reincarnated as a god.

 

[kcSaya]

backstory was too quick

 

[Kendama]

I'm actually rooting for Jack just because things will be mightily shaken up if Heracles loses.

It's not just a case of "if Heracles wins, he loses". The converse is true: "If Jack wins, humanity loses", because Heracles was their sole champion in the pantheon.

Never thought a braindead meatheads' fighting manga would actually be anything more than a guilty pleasure, but there are some levels of irony in the current fight that make this series a delight.

Another hint that Heracles will lose is that Brünhilde said the gods would try their hardest to win the fourth round. So the author was playing Heracles up from the beginning, which is nine times out of ten a defeat flag.

I also hope there's no flashback to Jack. True evil should remain incomprehensible. He should just win while spouting Victorian values nonsense.

 

[Astraea]

@Kendama That last part,while i do agree, i doubt that they wont show his past

 

[puta]

@Kendama @Astraea For what I read in wikipedia about jack, there is no past to show, he was a mistery, but they could come up with some nosense as they have been doing it. Did Anyone have just read the chapter 3 of Genesis? read something about Thor, Poseidon, or the guy than won against poseidon? All of these stories are far away from the original mitology.

 

[Kendama]

@puta We obviously all know the author is just making up backstories that have no relation with the original versions of these religious myths and folklore tales. I meant I don't want the author to do anything of the kind with Jack, he's better with no backstory at all.

Also, nice to touch to have extremists in the audience cheering Jack on.

 

[ERode]

Huh, I actually sorta like it. Heracles basically bought humanity 4000 years to raise up the heroes they need to kick the gods' teeth in in Ragnarok. I think I can be happy for the lad even if Jack dishonorably murders him.

 

[Frozeneye]

I really like how this hero story for Heracles is build up. He's also the idle mythological figure to do that with.
I really hope Jack's not gonna get a redeeming flashback, but instead will remain a truly evil human in this story.
