The Pope's name is Thanos, idc lmao

 

[conscript117]

Thank you for the translation!

Is not changing that much from the wn version...

 

[Saras]

Well at least he isn't plotting to raise the mana fortress...

 

[Yautja]

Manga like these always have the most awful naming conventions.

 

[Drifter]

The leader of a major religion is the god of death... Yea, might be some trouble brewing there.

Elf having PTSD over a tentacle?

 

[Psychronia]

Dang. I'd like to try some of that Kraken.

 

[Melakias]

@Yautja I agree, personally I hate the cliche in those names, it's just so bad.

 

[Flyingpantsu]

Thanatos is pope. Arc is also pope (it's not mentioned often but Arc has Pope as one of his subclasses).

So it's PvP : Pope vs Pope.

 

[saifors]

Come back to the village Sasuke.

 

[Vincentius]

@Yautja I don't really mind, since it's really nothing more than what a bunch of Western authors do, where they pick a language at random and then mash up names (or even just words) that they think sound cool and call it done with little regards for the language's actual naming convention. In manga, we're just seeing it from the other side.

"hey i have an original idea!"
"what if we name these characters after the deadly sins?"

"Hmm... that's not very original though. It's been done countless times throughout the history of literature."

"but what if we made their personalities match their sin?"

"Fullmetal Alchemist already did that. In my opinion, it's lazy writing."

"...what if we made their last names the corresponding holy virtues?"

"..."
"YER A FUKIN' GENIUS GET THIS MAN A RAISE"

These series always have a designated punching bag race that never catches a break. I'd be one thing if they lost a major war, but if they're a less "civilized" people living in grass huts, it gets touchy. It implies the differing treatment isn't simply discrimination, but an inevitable result of their differences in development. Those conquered peoples disappear from history as they're simply integrated into the common population of the victors but something like pointy ears and tails would become yellow badges.

@kan1295 Thanatos, not Thanos. He’s from Greek mythology

 

[Andiza]

@Yautja they use tropes of naming people what do you expect?

 

[Claresilver47]

@kan1295 As mentioned before, it's Thanatos, the personification of Death in Greek Mythology.

Thanos's name is based off of Thanatos, in the comics he's absolutely OBSESSED with Death and that's is actually why he gets the Infinity Stones, to woe her.

 

[Wolvenworks]

Oh great it’s the inquisition

Why can’t we have good guy religion for once?

 

[black1210]

Thanatos or THANOS

 

[Tamerlane]

Spoiler

Actually, I go by Thanatos now. The extra h is for Hamazing!
