Explain how this is supposed to represent holiness.
Explain how this is supposed to represent holiness
you need to find a sexier religion
that's the irony
Bondage represents lawcucks pretty well
God can be sexy
Actually Elmo Elmo is best girl.
Some autismo here pointed out some symbolism with the wrappings once but don't remember what exactly.
I always hated this design personally. The SMTII Angel design the best one I feel. It looks androgynous and more clean, the bondage getup just feels dumb.
Its not a sin to look good.
Because it's "wholly" based!
In an interview Kaneko said they are bound to God and the higher angels, thus the bondage gear.

>Angel
>They are God’s dogs or servants and their role is to connect Him to humans, so I gave them chains. Maybe these chains are fastened to Throne or Dominio
haha yeah, smt has no biblically accurate angels at all
play smt before posting your shit you fucking retard
Angels are such an abstract concept and thus can be designed in basically any such way. Most just choose an easily comprehensible way.
Did you know that Lucifer was an angel?
Humanoid angels are biblically accurate
Abstinence from sex so you don't perform unholy things on this angel
This but unironically
Bondage = submission to God
>sexy girls = unholy
do cucktians really?
how the fuck do you explain this then granny
>full body chastity belt
>blinded by faith
>chained into submission
I mean that's pretty much all religion is
uhh hello, based department?
It could be worse
It could be SMTIV Mermaid
I feel my braincells deteriorating reading this trying to understand it
His opinion is shit but I know what he's saying
Something wrong with mermaids, son?
Not him, but it is a really boring design
Not him but Doi's Mermaid is kind of shit since it feels like they aged her down just to be more pandering. I like this concept art design for her though.
I mean, it's a mermaid. It's already taking liberties by giving her a human vagina and a couple of skull buddies.
dats a speecy spicy meataball!
it's literally the same but with less butt
Her face reminds me of Yukiko's sad expression.
You mean Lilith.
The point is that the angel does fit the description of what a angel could be, while the Mermaid is sightly off. it's a fucking retarded comment
The fact she looks older and less uncomfortable goes a long way. I feel like Doi, either by choice or by higher ups, aged her appear more like a teenager to better appeal to the younger audience they wanted to attract with the IV series.
I just feel that there are cooler things you could do to allude to the macabre aspects of the mermaid folklore than a couple of flaming skulls
>they turned pompadour snake mommy into this
all this time and I still hate it
It feels like the person who made this doesn't actually know much about the bible
>Can't be unseen
>legs
fuck off
>that shit anatomy of the left leg
IV's guest artist were guys who worked on sentai/toku shows. Why Atlus thought these artists who became known for ridiculous, over the top designs should handle a series about mythology is beyond me.
fuck now I can't unsee
This design is bad in comparsion to the 3 concept art designs, and this has nothing to do with the fact that I hate mermaid knees
The funny thing is that Doi fixed a lot of the guest designs for Apocalypse, but Lilith was just absent from the game. Presumably because he didn't know what the hell he could do about it.
Gotta show off that delicious thigh meat somehow user.
Reminder that in proper depictions of angels the wings are covered with eyes and the features are utterly inhuman.
Few types of angels are like that
Should I dump kaneko kino?
I spent way longer than I should have fighting Medusa in FINAL
Just couldn't take my ears off of that music
I feel mixed on Doi's Medusa. It's a lot better composed but the needless cleavage is dumb and the pose is a lot less threatening then the original's.
Yes, how can one man create so much kino
Based
At least it got us some good ones, like this guy.
Mermaids? No
Mermaids with legs? Absolutely
It's a cool design, just feels way too toku/sentai like.
Lawful alignment as understood by angels and demons doesn't represent goodness or morals or holiness as defined by human cultures.
I actually kinda like Asmodeus, but it's definitely a case of, "Dude, what if I just started drawing and, like, never stopped?"
It does though
Literally a yu-gi-oh card
I can understand liking some IV designs, but this guy is just fucking awful.
They should have just let this guy design more demons.
I love Ahriman a lot, easily my favorite part of Nocturne, all his animations, phase change, etc. are the coolest shit.
youtu.be
Also really like this alternate art I got from the wiki, feels a little Digimon-y but is a cool take nonetheless.
I'd get down on my knees in worship for those thighs
>Blind, obedient servant of God
Do you use your brain for anything besides shitposting?
He's pretty "monster"-ish but in this case it's a little more understandable, Ahriman literally has zero images or descriptions across history. Also it's neat but Kaneko gives all his Zoroastrian demons insect like qualities, it's a neat detail.
>Franchise where a bunch of delusional satanics take unrelenting jabs at the "religion" that their master Satan hates
>Heh, lets make angels a bunch of submissive indicent sluts hurr durr that'll teach Y-YHWH.
>H-Heh heh... *gulp*
>Fear of God intensifies
