[thecronosone]

She ate Dara's tongue holy shit

She didn't eat it, she had to apply saliva to call dara-san so she put the talisman in her mouth, Kaoru just wants to lick dara...

 

[Ironclad]

Shinto gods come in two forms (at least the native ones do): Amatsugami (sky deities) and Kunitsugami (land/country deities). The Amatsugami are the ones worshipped by the imperial and noble houses and are the "national" gods, while the Kunitsugami are local smaller deities worshipped by the people of the land, the salt of the earth. Under the official mythology (the Kojiki and the Nihon Shoki), the Kunitsugami are all bound to their land after they were conquered by the Amatsugami in the War of Descent.

It's a common pattern in many cultures, Aesir/Vanir, Titans/Olympians, Asura/Deva. It's generally understood that local cultures are assimilated into a larger civilization and their deities become incorporated into a pantheon. Your local god losing a war/conflict is a way of reinforcing the hierarchy of that civilization.

Whenever the author shows a shota sucking on oppai's tongue: EMPTY THE ENTIRE PITCHER. 🍺🍺🍺

That is very interesting to know since it is even found in the Bible. The part in Exodus when the Living God used the 10 Plagues of Egypt to show He is top God, as each of the plagues has Him using the domain of the Egyptian gods to punish the Pharaoh's stubbornness.

That is very interesting to know since it is even found in the Bible. The part in Exodus when the Living God used the 10 Plagues of Egypt to show He is top God, as each of the plagues has Him using the domain of the Egyptian gods to punish the Pharaoh's stubbornness.

The Bible actually doesn't contain any War in Heaven narrative (what you're describing is a fringe understanding of the 10 Plagues - Egyptian gods didn't work that way) and almost every remnant of Israeli paganism in the Bible depict Yahweh as a subordinate deity to El Elyon, with no surviving narrative of Yahweh fighting a war of conquest (as in the Aesir x Jotun stories) or a rebellion to gain power (Olympians x Titans). Yahweh even loses to Chemosh in Kings 3:27. The way the Bible worked it out was to have Yahweh simply take on the attributes of Canaanite supreme deities and deny the previous deities' existence.

With that said, the Bible DOES contain invader mythology in the form of Exodus (identifying Israelites as foreign invaders to Canaan) and Joshua (the actual conquest), but without the accompanying heavenly conquest of the Canaanite pantheon by Yahweh. In truth, just like the Spartans in Greece and the Yamato Dynasty in Japan, Israelites were just Canaanites who had a cultural shift in identity and overtook the previous culture.

There is a current hypothesis going around that the Exodus narrative is actually a tribal history of specifically the Levite tribe of Israel. Levites in the Bible carry Egyptian names from the first generation and are prohibited from owning land, and they were of course the tribe from which the Deuteronomistic editors emerged. It is possible that the Exodus narrative was a sort of family legend that the Deuteronomistic school adopted as a national history when they were compiling the Torah. Similarly, the reason Samson the Danite hero is basically Hercules may be because the Dan tribe were originally part of the Aegean "sea peoples" who got assimilated in the Levant like the Phoenicians.

The Christian War in Heaven narrative actually came from Enochian text, so not found in the Bible itself. However, some Christian writers (the writer of Jude, for example, and the entire Ethiopian Church) considered Enochian literature to be scripture.

That kid is fucking stupid

Do you have any idea how little that narrows it down in this manga?

 

[Sakuyadorf]

And caught up
I am glad Kaoru is a huge degen and Hinata is pretty based, tomboy, model kit lover
need more focus on Amane imo

 

[beep_repair]

Pretty good chapter for Hinata, she usually takes a backseat to Karou and Dara.

Agreed. Honestly, I'm getting a little tired of Kaoru. He's funny but a one-note, one-joke character. Would like to see a bit more emphasis on Hinata.

 

[Krune]

is anyone else mildly concerned that bucko was giving some pre innsmouth vibes with the divine tentacles hovering around his back?

 

[Mieglen]

If Watagame-sama is really the same god that saved the boy’s grandmother, then him believing in the god, the faith will help the god get back into shape, and probably hope to protect the land once more. Seeing those tentacles come out, makes me think that good things will come, even when the former god was weakened this much…

This is the first... but not the last time he will make her regret giving him a piece of her "tongue meat".
