World Lit and Anime Adaptations: the Connection



random post on new game fate unlimited codes. i managed to get a hold of it. Hmm, nothing much to say, doesnt matter much except for Rider, haha!



Rider a.k.a. Medusa ftw. Let new age pop culture leave Medusa as a beauty rather than beast. Interesting way of making her the victim of fate.



But, also interesting character to note here, is Caster, or Medea. I like the way she's potrayed. Elven facial features? That contributes to the character being of demi-goddess heritage, haha. The elevation of the woman Medea over the puny Jason, who couldn't do shit on the Argo trip. That's Euripedes' Medea. One of 3 Ancient Hellenistic Feminist Characters. Atalanta, Medusa, Medea. Ahh, World Lit here we come....
