Genuinely delighted to see an anime do the "let's take this mythology and make it ten times more extreme and also stupid" to just... the bible

Quinneapolis
Record of Ragnarok just makes up its OWN version of what happened in the garden of eden

Quinneapolis
like what Mazinger did to every greek myth ever

Quinneapolis
in this version the serpent is an evil guy who FUCKS and BETRAYED EVE by FALSELY ACCUSING her of eating the apple because she FRIENDZONED him

showtime!
i'm losing my mind

Quinneapolis
so she went to trial at the GREAT COURT OF THE GODS

Quinneapolis
you know, the hundreds of gods that were there, in Adam and Eve's backstory

showtime!
where can i watch this

Quinneapolis
netflix

Quinneapolis
it's

Quinneapolis
UNBELIEVABLY stupid

Quinneapolis
and I'm ALL IN

MundersOWundus
To be fair, the Torah says they could have been there

MundersOWundus
It’s only by the time of Moses that G*d establishes that they’re the only god with jurisdiction over the Hebrew people

Quinneapolis
does the Torah say that they were having a phoenix wright courtroom battle over Eve's guilt until Adam busted in with a basket of apples from the tree, took one bite out of each one and spat it out, then the two of them flounced out of eden of their own will to make their own paradise on earth

Quinneapolis
because if it does, I might have to read it

MundersOWundus
“Thou shalt have no other gods before me”

Quinneapolis
anyway this is all backstory to set up a bareknuckle boxing match between Adam and Zeus

MundersOWundus
No, but I cannot wait to see an official rabbinical opinion on it given the halacha on vampire kashrut

Quinneapolis
I would fucking love to see a rabbinical opinion on Adam's backstory in the anime Record of Ragnarok

MundersOWundus
I’ll see what I can do

Quinneapolis
the thing I keep thinking about in the backstory as presented is that

Quinneapolis
nobody ate the fucking apple

Quinneapolis
how did we get knowledge of good and evil

Quinneapolis
Adam took bites but he spat them all out

MundersOWundus
the Stupid Heresy

MundersOWundus
no one ate the knowledge fruit, everyone's an idiot

Wild Child
nobody knows what good and evil really are and that's why we're so fucked up
