Historical accuracy in Assassin's Creed Odyssey

Image
Not long ago I purchased a copy of Assassin's Creed Odyssey giving the franchise some hope after being greatly disappointed in the games from Assassin's Creed 3 to Assassin's Creed Origins. I thought that I could have wasted my money completely and that I would have to either return or sell the game, however, I was proven wrong. From the moment I turned on the game it took a hold of me and did not seem to want to let go. It was revealed that you could play as either a male or a female protagonist, and as it usually happens in these kinds of situations, ridiculous amounts of criticism towards being able to play as a female not being realistic ensued. Ubisoft was blamed for trying to further an 'SJW' agenda, some fans giving ridiculous arguments as to why this was true, and, of course, the fact that Kassandra, the female protagonist was the canon one, did not help. So, it is obvious that Ubisoft saw the inclusion of a female protagonist as risky and...

Guren no yumiya

Attack on Titan is a series that I really enjoy and even if what eventually got me to continue watching was the plot or the characters the thing that made the strongest impression was its openings. The first, second and third are absolutely fantastic, immediately drawing the viewer in and getting them hyped for the upcoming episode. Someone even said that the openings made them feel patriotic for a country that does not even exist! In this post, I will only do a brief analysis of the first opening, Guren no Yumiya . The song opens on a chorus sung in German that says something along the lines of "they are the prey and we are the hunters" followed by an image of the walls surrounded by chains which clearly evokes the idea that despite the walls being the protection of the citizens they also serve as a trap that limits their freedom. In many cases Eren, one of the main characters states that they live like livestock inside the walls. Next a shot of the main trio...

One Piece world building

So, One Piece is one of my favourite mangas to date, it is one that has been able to keep my attention for hundreds of chapters and never really felt stale. Of course this is partly due to its sympathetic characters, funny aesthetics and constantly changing plot, nonetheless, something that really stood out in comparison with other series was its worldbuilding. The world of One Piece is extremely vast, there are 120 named islands that we know of and each of them is overflowing with life. They are not used as a plot device but rather include interesting characters with memorable personalities, visual quirks of the island itself and even their own customs that add to the feeling that you are truly in the world, adventuring with the Strawhats. Good examples of this are Skypiea and Water 7. Around the former of the two a whole myth has been created with many not even believing the existence of the island in the sky, however, thanks to Cricket, the descendant of a man who went there...
