Stenno and Euryale were immortal beings. Stenno, Euryale, and Medusa are renowned for the beauty of the “Gorgon Sisters.” The three sisters protested in anger, but instead, they faced Athena’s divine punishment, the goddess of wisdom and warfare. “Athena” was jealous! “Athena” was jealous! She transformed Medusa’s hair into snakes, literally making her beautiful eyes become a sight of “see no evil”! The goddess Athena, consumed by jealousy!
Greek mythology’s gods are mostly just powerful bastards.
It seems there was a situation where they lost to a human in a weaving competition and got upset about it.
>>2
I came to admonish you, saying don’t openly diss God in front of people… but then a textile weaving competition started, and I was presented with a piece saying your dad is a cheating scumbag! I was understandably pissed off.
She is the daughter of Zeus.
>>3
The persuasiveness is amazing!
Wasn’t it because I was getting carried away, thinking I was the most beautiful?
I like Hestia because she has no scandals at all.
>>7
This goddess is super laid-back.
>>12
I’m sorry, but I can’t move, so I’ll just take a break – how annoying!
Because he’s the god of war, there are definitely people who get on my nerves like this.
Barbarians
Moreover, it’s ruthless that they are instigating Perseus to defeat him.
My daughter is the cutest in the world!
So, are you saying that means I’m underneath that guy, huh!? Trying to destroy the country and all that?
It is rare to be on the side of people.
Does Athena end up dying a terrible death in the end?
Hera is ridiculously hysterical…
>>15
Usually, they are just pursuing the husband’s mistress and her child.
>>22
Having an affair is one thing, but bullying the child is not acceptable!
>>43
A child born from an affair shouldn’t have been born in the first place, so it makes sense.
>>46
Doesn’t a person’s heart exist?
Isn’t it strange to compete in a beauty contest with Afro-san, who governs beauty?
Shall we leave it to the goddess of beauty?
>>16
It’s definitely Healer-san, right?
Despite frequently getting angry, you somehow managed to settle things peacefully after being doused by Hephaestus.
She is also a goddess with a cultural aspect related to crafts and arts.
I’m starting to understand how Kratos feels…
>>21
It’s terrible that my father is like that.
>>21
That Athena over there was quite terrible too…
Athena, huh?
Even if it’s garbage, it’s a bit of a different vector.
I absolutely don’t want to lose if it comes to a competition in any genre.
So I’ll crush Medusa in the beauty contest, and since the two older sisters have protested, they’ll be crushed as enemies as well.
I’ve heard stories that Hera is the goddess of marriage and doesn’t tolerate infidelity.
Since Athena also carries the title of the goddess of victory, there are circumstances that make it so she absolutely cannot lose.
>>27
What do you think, Ares?
Since I also govern war, I will absolutely win the match!
As expected of Athena, there’s a reason people say if she were born a man, she would kill Zeus.
>>29
If anything, she’s the daughter who was born from splitting open Zeus’s head…
Hera and Athena have a close relationship, which gives way to a certain bad nature that allows them to sense various things.
Feel honored.
What lies at the root of Athena’s mental state is
“I believe it’s the spirit of ‘If I’m underestimated, I’ll crush them.'”
>>35
It’s inevitable because I’m the god of war.
The way female characters are drawn in Baki doesn’t give off a goddess vibe.
Hera, get mad at your husband… → I got mad once, but I got retaliated against.
Isn’t the flow too terrible?
>>37
Well, there’s no helping it then…
Well, if it’s not that kind of god, people might get carried away and mock someone like Demeter.
I think Cassiopeia also caused trouble because I’m beautiful.
I’ve never seen such powerful stories from long ago.
You have a too narrow mind!
For now, Europa is judged to be safe. Europa is judged to be safe.
I wonder if the citizens of Athena, who are fans of Athena, were not angry about being characterized like this.
>>49
It’s Athena.
Very strong.
She is the goddess of battle, and she is also a goddess that leads to victory.
That’s where it differs from Ares.
>>58
Don’t bully me.
Don’t bully Ares.
All the characters are complete idiots.
Mr. Ares is a handsome man who shows the negative aspects of war.
Weak at fighting but handsome.
It’s not an off-board strategy, but I wonder why I thought that would lead to a win…
I’ll keep going until I use my neck as a shield and stick to it.
When you read mythology, you’ll be amazed at how many worthless things come crawling out.
The fact that early Saori was such a mess was also a faithful reproduction of the original work…
Ares’ battle record is a bit outrageous.
If you lose to a regular person, who can you possibly beat?
Every time Hades appears, I think, “This guy is serious…”
In the story of marrying Persephone, Zeus, damn you!
>>63
Persephone was kidnapped by Hades!?
“…Hey Zeus, you must have stirred something up, right?”
>>63
Hades has a hermit-like and devoted image.
>>63
Hades is also cheating, you know.
>>77
Persephone is also doing it.
>>82
I’m not helpful at all…
>>91
Hades’ mistress was crushed by Persephone herself, but Persephone’s lover died completely unrelated to Hades.
>>112
I know.
I thought it was a story from a book I read long ago where Medusa got a little too confident and said, “I’m more beautiful than Athena,” and received divine punishment for it.
Is it different depending on the interpretation?
>>78
Don’t worry about it, as there are various alternative theories regarding such myths and legends.
>>78
There are various theories, but it’s common for Medusa to get carried away and for Athena to get angry.
On the contrary, I wonder why the people of Rome were fans of Ares…
>>79
That’s Mars…
>>79
For the people of Greece, war was an unpleasant thing that ground down the citizens of the polis in petty quarrels.
It was a wonderful thing for the Romans to expand their influence.
>>79
Mars existed there as an indigenous god even before the founding of ancient Rome.
There is a theory that the reason why the indigenous beliefs continued as they were is that the roles of Ares and Mars overlapped when sliding the 12 gods from Greece, leading to their fusion.
Even Zeus warned the other gods that he would not forgive them if they took Hestia’s virginity, so he was protecting her to that extent…
Zeus stands out, but Poseidon’s little thing is really something, isn’t it?
Poseidon is my uncle…
Also, there are an incredible number of followers of Poseidon.
The former main deity from another place is also incredibly popular.
If you want a mild version of Greek mythology, you should watch Disney’s Hercules.
Wow, Hera has become a kind mother!
>>86
Of all things, they’ve made Hades into a shitty character!
Under the deity that is invading the region invaded by Greece.
Isn’t it someone who seems to belittle others?
>>87
“My god is amazing! It’s related to your god! It seems there are many stories attached to it, so I can’t really say anything.”
Athena was laying the groundwork to defeat Zeus, but because it was abruptly ended midway, that event never happened.
>>92
Thanks to that, it’s too easy to use as a game theme.
Aphrodite is super popular, yet her background is so unusual compared to the rest of the Olympian family, which mostly consists of Zeus’s siblings or children, it’s funny.
Additionally, Ares has the unfortunate circumstance of being from a barbarian background and being treated as an outsider.
>>94
In any case, I’m the biological child of Zeus and Hera alongside Hephaestus.
Even in ancient Greece, the citizens recognized that Greek mythology was a creation of stories.
I’ve heard that derivative works created by altering original content have been trending.
If you know about the stories around here, in the game HADES…
It’s understandable that every time I speak to Medusa, I go “Hie!?”
You never know what the son of a great god might do…
The sparkling constellations are calling you.
>>97
It means that you’ll end up having a terrible experience that could lead to death because of God, right?
Because there is also a power balance between cities and believers.
Mythology is quite difficult.
>>99
A nation that supports Zeus conquers a nation that supports other gods → Zeus is being altered into a certain form!
Athena is the goddess of Athens, the central figure of Greece.
Ares is a god from Thrace, which is on the edge of Eastern Greek culture, bordering on barbarism, so he is not treated very well.
Still, the fact that Thrace is included among the Twelve Olympian gods indicates its important position.
Hades is a remarkable god with not even a millimeter of elements to gain popularity, as he has absolutely no benefits in the earthly realm.
>>108
In other words, not just Hades, but gods who oversee death are generally serious, and it would be troubling if the one in charge of death wasn’t serious.
>>108
No matter how much money I offer or how many human sacrifices I send, it won’t spare me from dying or guarantee paradise after death, will it?
If you’re invited by the great god Poseidon, it would be impossible to refuse…
Unlike the typical pattern of divine punishment you see in accidents where you end up seeing someone naked.
I think this is the result of competition.
Feel honored.
>>101
Among the many heroes, the rare hero Iason is blessed by Hera.
There are times when I think the world is ending when I see that myths reflecting Western ethical views are popular worldwide.
>>119
Isn’t there quite a bit in Eastern mythology that makes you go “?”…
>>125
That’s probably something you shouldn’t touch.
>>125
There is an amazing guy named Susanoo who can also become ?????? even though he is Japanese.
>>125
Westerners who elevate such Greek mythology have a moral sense that has been proven to be flawed since ancient times.
>>130
I don’t have any faith right now.
In the first place, during the time of Socrates and Plato, depicting the gods in this way was viewed as problematic to the point of being criticized as mockery.
>>119
In Buddhism, continuing to fight after death is considered the realm of Asura, one of the six paths, and is not good.
In the Nordic region, it’s interesting that fighting even after death is considered an honor.
>>126
Buddhism is a counter to Hinduism…
Choose the most beautiful one among the three goddesses!
A curse is a gift from the goddess you did not choose!
>>120
Thus, Troy was destroyed.
I did it!
>>120
Why…
>>120
It is a stalemate.
>>123
It seems like it’s partly Ellis’s fault.
My favorite is Greek mythology.
After undergoing gender transition to become a woman, Teiresias, who received divine punishment and became a blind prophet, asserts that “having sex feels ten times better for women.”
It’s irrelevant, but doesn’t “Atena-kasu” look too much like “Asteku”?
>>133
The Aztec mythology is just too intense!
>>137
Mixtr is nice, isn’t it…
>>150
It’s a well-known story that attacking someone with Excalibur turns them to stone…
>>153
The Excalibur, which was said to cut through anything, couldn’t cut the queen’s crown, which is fine, isn’t it…
I mean, Susanoo is probably the same pattern as Zeus.
Because it’s a popular character, mixing various stories has resulted in an incomprehensible brute.
It seems there are stories of Susanoo in the countryside, and they are very direct.
To Hades, whether it’s a king or his wife’s lover, it’s certain that they will die eventually, and after that, it’s all up to him.
>>135
Shah! Resurgence of the dead!
>>143
Stop it… because the boundary between the dead and the living becomes unclear.
For now, I’ll let Zeus decide on this penalty.
Could it be that gods are mostly useless?
>>136
That is fundamentally because the world is not kind to humanity.
>>136
It’s because we measure with human standards that it turns out that way.
In other words, it’s garbage.
>>136
It seems that there are quite a few good aspects… although I haven’t really heard much about it.
>>136
A response from an ordinary person.
>>136
In most myths, gods are intense because if they aren’t, it doesn’t explain the harshness of the world.
Everyone’s favorite rock uncle, Sisyphus.
Aren’t the conquistadors who destroyed the Aztecs the ones who are justified…?
It’s interesting that Hermes and Zeus become Odin and Thor in Norse mythology, reversing the father-son relationship.
The Persephone abduction incident is crazy because Demeter is currently enraged and not forgiving at all.
It’s Hades’ fault that tonight is so damn cold.
Is there something like Ragnarok in Greek mythology to begin with?
>>147
One day, Zeus is also foretold to be overthrown from the throne by his son, just as his father and grandfather were.
The all-knowing and all-powerful Zeus is said to have preemptively nipped that possibility in the bud.
This is the tale of Athena’s birth.
Not everything is like this, but if the gods as personifications of phenomena are strict, then…
The world is harsh, first of all.
I cut off the head of a kid made from Hindu and dirt, but since I put an elephant’s head on, it’s okay, what on earth is going on!?
I thought while reading that in the unfolding where Uranus Cronus and his son do terrible things, the main character Zeus is going to do the same thing too.
A life hack that allows you to do as you please if you call it a trial from God.
Pillar of Salt
Greece is not monolithic, and there are often disputes over interpretations in the cities.
When I was a child, I read Greek mythology here.
Anyway, I was frustrated because God is full of assholes.
“Did you ask if there are any secondary creations of that guy?”
Memories of being taught about God of War.
If God is kind
Why is the world so harsh!? Has the world already been abandoned!!
Because it ends up being like that.
>>162
Astraea held on pretty well, but ultimately abandoned me.
It is said that back then, a style of kidnapping the woman you loved wasn’t that unusual for a man.
If I had talked to Aunt Demeter earlier, nothing might have gotten complicated…
There are too many who are both sun gods and also associated with plague.
>>164
Why does ultraviolet light destroy bacteria and viruses so thoroughly…?
>>171
I wonder if the phenomenon of hot weather leading to the spread of epidemics is connected.
>>174
It’s the demon of puzzles, hot winds, and plagues.
Are there any works that depict God positively from a modern perspective?
>>166
In modern times, there are countless gods who would give cheat abilities to those who died in accidents.
In the story of Arachne, it’s hilarious that instead of a divine curse or a spear, the first thing to be thrown was a fist, and it was so intense.
The devil is a convenient concept that can mitigate the unreasonable god up until then…
In times when there was no science, myths were created to explain incomprehensible things like “Why is there sky or sea?” so they generally embody the absurdity of nature itself.
>>172
When I see lots of myths about the Hainuwele type, everyone is too focused on poop and food!
>>178
Well, since it’s something that is close to the primordial humans and it’s only natural to be interested…
>>181
I build the world using materials from dead gods.
Poop and pee are also a small world.
If you have such incredible power, can’t a god completely manage humans and create an ideal world?
>>175
There seems to be quite a few myths like that, saying it was once like that, but because humans were no good, it’s different now.
It’s similar to the story of Arachne.
Greek mythology has quite a few stories where humans are outsmarted.
Just living is really hard, you know.
If God exists, there is no way it wouldn’t be strict.
There are kind things, but it is impossible for there to be no strictness at all.
Even in modern times, people die from earthquakes, tsunamis, eruptions, and typhoons.
Especially in ancient times.
I learned about it from Machiko Satonaka’s manga.
I laughed when I heard that in later years, people said the monster design was too lame!
I read the story of the mother of Minotaurus when I was in elementary school, and I… was just ordinary…
>>184
If you’re going to wake up as an elementary school student, it’s only a matter of time.
Metis was supposed to be usurped by the child she bore, but Zeus swallowed Metis whole and then gave birth to the child from his head, so it’s all safe.
We are creatures whose anus comes before our mouth, you know?
Isn’t the Minotaur just kind of sad…?
>>188
Yes
I don’t really care, but the humans in Greek mythology…
How did it happen again…?
The Judgment of Paris is pretty awful too.
That’s fine if we let the main character Thetis take the spotlight.
>>192
If you do that, you’ll turn Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite against you.
>>192
It all started with the idea of reducing the population because it had increased too much in the first place.
No matter what you choose, it’s rigged to lead to war.
A story solely about the life of a monster from Greek mythology.
It seems that there are many people who have a sad past that they could almost create from.
>>193
So, the secondary creation has continued to thrive up to the present day.
Those who sympathized with the Minotaur may find some solace in reading this fan fiction.
God, please just die…
Long ago, in Greece, Icarus…
She’s the daughter of Zeus, you know?
You’re trash.
