Miscellaneous Questions 7 - To Misc or not to Misc
TresserT:
It's explicitly stated (I want to say it's in her AFiEU interview) almost word for word what you said. That "god" is just a term they use for the strongest people in Hell. A fairy can be a god down there if they're strong enough. So you're absolutely right.

--- End quote ---
That would be the myriad gods. In the broadest sense they're the gods that inhabit all things (i.e. animism), and typically the term would imply that kind of god specifically rather than including the gods that have become worshiped (or to put it in ZUN's terms, "gods with names"), since in most contexts you'd just call those "gods".
--- Quote from: TrueShadow on August 23, 2017, 01:10:45 PM ---Speaking of gods, is Hecatia even the same category of "god" as Kanako, Suwako, or even the Lunarians? She seems like simply a powerful...whatever she is, and her "Goddess" is just a title.
--- End quote ---
Well, she is based on Hecate, who is a goddess, but notably from a totally different kind of mythos. I would guess this the reason why ZUN calls her a goddess but also implies it's a title, as she wouldn't really be considered a god in a Shinto sense. Maybe.
Polaris:
--- Quote from: Electroll on August 22, 2017, 11:48:19 AM ---So, what is the reason for Okina for teleporting the protagonists away or leaving through her own door if she had the upper hand? And how come the protagonists didnt realise that they are the one running away?
--- End quote ---
As I understand it, Okina had the upper hand because she was able to kick the protagonists out?that was her surefire way of winning. The whole "running away" thing is kind of weird, but really Okina just kicks them out and then tries to portray it as them "running away" as, like, a show of superiority or something.
Shadowlupus:
I asked this in the last thread but got no response so I'm copying the whole thing here.
I'm here to ask for a permission to upload official? images that are missing from our wiki.
Is it all right to upload,
- 4koma in BAiJR?
- 4 different Message Papers like the one in Memorizable Gensokyo. According to the Thai wiki, each of these is received from buying PMiSS at 4 different stores: Toranoana, Melonbooks, White Canvas and Gamers. These papers are not given out anymore.
Of course, the images I'm going to upload are still in Japanese.
For another thing, is there any site for a Japanese transcript for CoLA and BAiJR? As I was looking at both wiki as usual, I noticed that ours misses one or two entire dialogue boxes.
Electroll:
Since the Lunarians created a fake pure land which enabled them to live up till million of years and the Netherworld is a purer land than the moon, would Youmu have the lifespan of million of years or just normal lifespan of half human half phantom (assuming she lives in Netherworld for the rest of her life).
