    It's funny how the Fiends go from a Matador, a monk, Ghost Rider, and then the horsemen of the apocalypse, the harlot of the bible, and the trumpeter of the end times. It went from "Eh, that's creepy", to "WOW, WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!"

    My favorite has to be Matador. Just because I'm Spanish? Yeah. It's quite hilarious seeing a bullfighter being a boss in a JRPG, but when you're laughing thinking you're fighting Morante or José Tomás (spanish bullfighters), he destroys you because you were too busy laughing at him. Also, it's my favorite Nocturne boss gameplay-wise.

    Trumpeter is my favorite by far, I love when you fight the fiends in Strange Journey, because his encounter is random, they are insanely strong, they can wipe your entire party in one hit, and the most amazing fact, is that in Strange Journey, the first time you encounter a demon, you can only see it in the form of some blue floating thing, but with the fiends, you see them in his true form.
    I remember when I first encounter matador....I know I was doomed....

      @enriquejoseantequerasanche6180 8 місяців тому +1

      A clarifying note: matador means "he who kills", but in a neutral sense, while someone who kills as in the crime is an "asesino" (from the same root as "assassin") or a "homicida" (he who commits homicide). You can be a "matador de toros" (bull killer) or a "matador de pollos" ( chicken killer), but for men it would be more appropiate to say "asesino de hombres" rather than "matador" (through it is correct)

It goes into how practically every current invention we have had some connection to a wartime effort. I only say this as I found it interesting to think that war has caused any good.

    Babylon wasnt "evil" as much as it was a poIitical enemy of those writing at the time, to the point destruction of infants was treated as good as long as it was against the ethnic groups they considered outsiders, both the harlot and the famine rider are the most clear references to revelations being about his vision and criticism for his current time, just like the number of the beast being theorized to be about either Nero or Caligula as early christians were the target to read the text

    There is another interpretation for the Black Rider's scale.
    As scale is the tool of measurement, it is essential instrument in trading. The scale tipping indicates the price of food increases as famine grows.

    An interesting little thing that makes me think it’s also a nod to the first Horseman being interpreted as Jesus.
    He has a Light skill called God’s Arrow that has a 100% chance to kill whoever it targets if they don’t null or repel Light attacks. And he’s programmed to target whoever ISN’T immune.He also never uses the attack if everyone IS immune as well.
    He also has a unique fire attack that I believed is also possessed by Uriel called Prominence. Further signifying a connection to the angels.

    I’ve been trying to have all the fiends in my SMT 3 and SMT V games, but it’s a bear to do! They’re all so cool though but imagine if we had Demi-Fiend with all the Amala Fiends (I call them this because Alice is also of the fiend race, and there might be others as well and also because it makes them seem special) VS all the Persona MCs. They would probably get OWNED (the Persona MCs not Demi-Fiend)!!

  • @Stoltzy92

    A small correction. The black horseman doesn't actually speak, that's one of the 4 living creatures (ie one of the seraphim)
    (When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come!” I looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, “Two pounds of wheat for a day’s wages, and six pounds of barley for a day’s wages, and do not damage the oil and the wine!)

    I dunno if you're interested, but there's more to Hell's Biker than just being a parody of Hell's Angels. Each Fiend reprents a herald of death, the way this is symbolized in Hell's Biker can be best seen in SMTIII. During the 1970/80s there was a huge Satanic scare, with one of the victims of this being bikers. With the popularity of bikes rising among counter cultures, gangs of bikers became feared as violent Satanists, and the sound of bikes in the distance became a symbol of coming doom. Exploitation film makers noticed this, and it managed to permeate through society due to movies involving gangs of mad, murderous bikers. Pretty soon the sound of bikes would lead to panicked calls to the police as people thought death was coming.

It shows how this fiends could be view in a number of ways not exactly evil but not good either, is akin to them bringing the end as a task, something that has to happen.

I already knew about the buddhist monks who self-mummified, but since the robes of those mummies had a variety of different colors (with red being more prevalent), I always figured Daisoujou's design to be inspired by the Lovecraftian "King in Yellow", which made more sense to me as a Fiend.
