this wouldn’t leave my head

[ashlynniis-bracketeers]

I've had this dumbass joke rattling around in my head for way too long lmao. That Slayer line from Xrd (winning against Axl) about him hating fighting zoners in-universe enough to risk losing his temper has stuck with me... So of course I decide to keep championing my "actually feral insane" Slayer and meme on it. I've already done a joke about him most likely loathing Happy Chaos if he ever meets him. Decided to have some fun with (fellow insane-o) best girl Sharon too, I wanna see what the sword he mentions in his win quote against I-No looks like 83.

One-part funny vampire (and wife), another part "people misunderstanding Strive Faust" lmao. Faust just wants to help, Slayer/Sharon are the ones that are willing to throw the fuck down without a second thought. Also a bonus I-No.

Funnee violence >8}

I hope you like it!

v Text, for those who have trouble reading it (will be putting this under a cut) v

Top Panel

[Text in box] - How most people view Slayer/Sharon with Faust:

Slayer's text - Oh, please don't mind him! I'll make sure to keep him in check.

Bottom Panel

[Text in box] - Their actual relationship:

Slayer's text - FULL SCREEN ZONERRRR-

Faust's text - I'm, sorry about, this...

I-No's bubble text - I'm leaving before you give him a reason to let him loose.

A meal that comes with the chef's touch! Literally...

This was one of the first comics I picked out to translate, just because it had Sharon in it.

Untranslated & cleaned comics under the cut.

Translation assistance: @itadaki-italy

ID in alt.

Anything of note from the translation: Not really. The title, [ 演出 ], translated as [ direction ], like directing a play, a movie, etc. I changed it to [ interruptions ] as I felt the original title, when translated into English, didn't connect to the rest of the joke.

I asked one of my friends who understands Japanese if anything he said here was a haiku, and they said there wasn't so thank goodness I didn't need to figure one out.

I watched all of Slayer's story paths in XX and +R to see if he referred to drinking blood as eating or drinking, and... Couldn't find anything. I left it as eating, but if someone tells me a moment where he refers to it as drinking, I'll update accordingly.

A lot of the effects refused to be transcribed and the sfx library wasn't any help, but you can guess at most of them.

As always, if you understand Japanese and want to fix a translation / retranslate something, let me know and I'll update it.

First version posted:

I mistook Ky's second piece of dialogue as Sol's, which influenced the way I translated it.

Can you please confirm Slayer gets dommed by Sharon

This has been confirmed since Guilty Gear XX.

So I have been thinking about why Slayer seems pretty invested in what happens with A.B.A and Paracelsus as a couple, and I think it's because he and Sharon actually share a lot of similarities with A.B.A and Paracelsus.

They’re consistently depicted as ‘couples’. A.B.A and Paracelsus as an actual in game battle couple, while Sharon is on the sidelines but is very much present with Slayer prefight, post-fight etc.

Slayer as a Nightwalker also hungers and gains power from blood similar to Paracelsus, tho whether he NEEDS blood to survive I’m unsure (I think Nago survived hibernation without drinking blood so that would be similar to Para who survived 20 years not drinking blood).

Slayer has been able to satiate his own hunger without hurting/killing other people because Sharon is deathless and is a willing endless supply of blood for him. Paracelsus was provided blood by A.B.A tho not directly her own blood (usually), but also, it’s implied her being a homunculus made her tough enough to survive longer than usual as Paracelsus’ wielder. Paracelsus got over his desire of blood by choice though, whereas Slayer simply has an easy endless source of it.

Because of the above point, Slayer is actually really friendly to everyone and peace-loving despite his overwhelming power. He was disappointed with young Paracelsus who he felt was a bore and waste of time for being focused on killing and violence. Afterwards, Paracelsus would recognize that Slayer only wants peace when they next meet while Slayer realized he was already suppressing his power. By STRIVE, Paracelsus has adopted a philosophy close to pacifism as he never actively wants to fight or transform anymore.

Slayer has been alive for a very long time (longer than most of the cast if not all of them, even That Man) and Sharon cannot die, so they are eternal lovers. Similarly, A.B.A has said her and Paracelsus’ “love is eternal”. As Para is a magical foci and A.B.A is likely to be immortal or at least extremely long lived, this may also be their fate where they cannot die naturally. Bit iffy on A.B.A since her hair is actually growing, but whether she ages at all is another thing.

And Slayer can be possessive of Sharon in almost the same exact scenarios and in the same ways as A.B.A:

Getting jealous of himself, getting jealous of other people eyeing Sharon, and believing in obsession being a form of love, which explains SO MUCH about why he was so helpful with helping A.B.A contact the right people to put Paracelsus in a body.

He's coming up in the next DLC (as long as ArcSys doesn't fake out everyone with the silhouette again) so I really hope we get him commenting on A.B.A and Paracelsus' progress, since that was what he was interested in 20 IRL years ago.
