Wait till you read Astrea Record to see what "evil" gods really mean. (One of the reasons why Astrea Record should be adapted -- it paints such a different picture of Orario, the prosperous city of adventurers.)
Freya is actually somewhat normal for gods and goddesses -- beautiful yet can also be apathetic and ruthless when it comes to pursuing her goals. (Someone similar is Hermes who constantly pulls dangerous schemes to force Bell's growth without remorse.) Goddesses of chastity and goodie-two-shoes goddesses are in the minority.
Wtf is this argument, astrea looked to be friendly with Erebus himself before sending him to heaven 😭 being evil or not is not something that should be qualified by wether astrea is friendly or not
Yea, “Enyo” is something else entirely. Not saying who it is in case people wanna read it. Manga is much better than the anime. Light Novel goes further beyond the story of the Manga.
What could they do worse than phisical.and mental torture paired with your feelings erased along with precious memories? Same thing for much more people perhaps? Mah
if you think so. but if that happens to any other human that's not the favorite child of the gods no one would bat a fcking eye. that's how god is, fickle being. there's no obligation at all for them to be good or bad completely they just like having fun.
that's why we all can get all mad here with our standard but ppl in danmachi would never verdict a god as evil jist by doing tiny bit of mischief, bcs the things that the god did in their short lifetime doesn't compare to what they've done since the beginning of the world. unless it's something like destroying babel to let the monster out or working with dungeon to end humanity
That's where the blue and orange morality trope comes in. For the mortals, it's a breach in their dignity and freedom. For gods, they were more angry at her using a cheat skill.
She may not be evil, but she's definitely not forgivable. You can't just get away with charming the whole town and trying to break the MC from his love interest.
Somewhat Agree. Because of Freya, Bell has faced more daunting challenges early in his journey. So his dungeon exploits probably would have come with time.
On the other hand, who is to say whether he would have developed firebolt without the grimoire given to him by Freya, which has been the anchor of his ability of overcome obstacles and survive.
But would he be strong enough in time. If it takes him longer to level up, by the end he might be just short of the mark to beat the final boss.
He probably won't have gotten firebolt or his other magic without the grimoire.
Also Freja was the one that unleashed that monster in the city.
And she also took care of that other love goddess that was into him. If she hadn't tossed her over the edge. Then Bell may have still been unable to win.
suprisingly enough it was stated on multiple occasions she's the reason Orario still exists. Enyo's plan would have destroyed Orario at the beginning of the story but Freya Charmed the monsterphilia monsters to chase Hestia and Bell.
This was something Enyo could have never predicted, changing the course of events. That being said she isn't evil in the traditional wrathful sense BUT she's clearly evil in the jealous sense.
If you're going to steal a child from someone and you threaten their family at death, but you don't wish to actually kill them but are willing if they disobey, you're still definitely evil. Good luck doing that in RL and saying you're not evil.
Just because she's not a representative of Evilus doesn't mean she's evil. Her divinity isn't evil but she still chose the evil.
P.S if this was Phyrne you wouldn't be defending those actions.
Being hell bent on world annihilation is evil but not the only thing that can be defined as evil. Omori may like Freya as a character but that lady is twisted.
She is evil, but not evil evil. Selfish, arrogant, and sometimes willing to compromise her own morals, and hurt, even kill at times, people in order to achieve her desires. But not out of any hate for anyone. It's part of what makes her an interesting villain. There is reason for what she does. Not good reason, not sensible reason to anyone outside of herself, but a sort of rationale, that you can understand
