Hades Blood Of Zeus - Tumblr Posts
maybe spoilers for those who haven't finished BoZ
mostly personal opinions, not a real analysis though
Just finished watching season 2 of Blood of Zeus, and rematched it a few more times for the art and certain characters— ehem Hermes ehem— anyways, I love Blood of Zeus, but I understand some of the viewers' grievances like the main character being a Gary Stu, twisting the original myths like with Hades and Persephone and by extension Demeter and Ares, and how their personalities contradicted with what they showed in the previous season (in cases like Ares.)
Personally I'm more offended about their change with Ares, he seems more hostile now and I get he's with the whole he's the legitimate child and so he should take up the throne stuff but I agree with being apprehensive bout him, ares, the defended of women, who killed someone who raped his daughter in the myths, literally attempted to SA Persephone as something unbelievable and a bit annoying.
Demeter on the other hand, Idk, maybe it's because I read lore of Olympus, or something, but I could get behind with how she's represented in BOZ, to be fair, I may dislike her a bit over her winter tantrum that cost the lives of a lot of mortal, it's a bit surprising that I've seen two adaptation or modern retelling about hades and Persephone displayed Demeter as an overbearing or controlling mother (again, BoZ and Lore of Olympus)
On the bright side, getting to see Hermes more? icing on the cake 🎂, so I'll take it— love that poor baby
Low-key surprised about Seraphim having a love interest, who they just introduced to us this season, I kinda agree with that one Tumblr poster where they pointed out it would have been better if they just used his adoptive mom to fuel him.
also, Hermes 💕
I wonder if they're going to permanently kill Heron and have Seraphim be the main character, but the prophecy does state it has to be a demi god or smth iirc, 🤔, it'd be weird if they just make heron survive it and that death shreds his humanity but makes him a full God, I wonder if the writers thought things through
