I think you missed something about Orcust. specifially their OCG name, and its inspiration The OCG name, Orphegel, is a portmanteau of the names of Orpheus and Belphegor, and the tern Orgel. The latter is a temr for music boxes, which relates tot he obvious music theme. But the Orpheus connection is more interesting. Orpheus is a greek hero whose two claims to fame were a failed attempt to resuce his beloved Eurydice form the underworld and later being beheaded by Manads and still signing afterwards. For the former, this relates to Ningirsu's goal for the entire archetype (reviving Ib) and the short term failure caused by Lee's hijacking of Galatea (this puts a contrast with Galatea's own inspiration and the short-lived inversion, as you mentioned her story ended tragically compared to the namesake's). as for the beheading...well there is a notable detail about Girsu here. He is clad in head to toe in armor, it is also notable that Longirsu and his retrain are Machine-type. I theorize that Ningirsu had turned himself into a cyborg as part of his plans (likely as a means to stay with his sister for eternity, he likely wouldn't stand for her her suffering the same bereavement he did) it would also explain why he was able to lift such a heavy spear in Crescendo, he had augmented his strength with musical cybernetics. Belphegor is more strange as as a namesake. Siscon ot no, This man is anything but slothful considering he went to great lengths (especially in the context of him hailing from a low tech village). That said it might correlate with your comparison of the Wrodl legacy and the Seven Deadly sins, by implying the World Wand represents Sloth, but that is more theorycrafting comapred to Robo-Ningirsu given the lack of evidence there and no other "seven Deadly Sin" demon names showing up int he other WL archetypes. EDIT:Turns out that Belphegor was pretty big on teaching humans automation,basically, which could fit with the whole robot army thing. Also the case can be made for World Arc also representing Noah's Arc. The biblical flood story about preserving life by getting pairs of every animal onto the eponymous vessel, this would fit well with the "governing life/death" angle
As someone who knows Xenoblade, using a picture of Gray as a representation of the protagonists in the series is the least fitting thing you could have done. While he is a “Hero”, that is the proper name for the guest party system in 3, and Gray has like…nothing to do with the main plot. He is very cool though.
The artwork.... its ai.... Look at their eyes. Nobody with the skill to render images so vividly, would be so bad at drawing eyes. As an artist, this trend is really discouraging.
@@captianblitz I know but it has all the fingerprints of ai. Really just look at their faces. I get they arent supposed to be seen that close but the rest of it is so spot on.

Holy peak on Christmas. I hope that one day these stories get animated.

Do you mean…the card art? From Konami? Most of which was made nearly 10 years ago?
@@captianblitz I know but it has all the fingerprints of ai. Really just look at their faces. I get they arent supposed to be seen that close but the rest of it is so spot on.
It’s definitely not. AI was not that good (if functional at all) in 2016
@@captianblitz So the artist just... gave up on the faces? I guess.
They look fine to me.
Thats just the default Yugioh art style
