#The Samurai Wars

ANGEL WARRIOR FROM THE WORLDS ABOVE -- PARTICIPANT IN THE SAMURAI WARS BELOW.

PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on promo shots of Lotus, the Angel Warrior (something of an "Anti-Spawn"), from Spawn Series 19 "Spawn Dark Ages: The Samurai Wars," released by McFarlane Toys in July 2001.

FIGURE OVERVIEW: "Lotus is an angelic Samurai warrior sent to feudal Japan from the Worlds Above to put an end to the epic battle between Samurai Spawn and the beast Jyaaku the Nightmare. Lotus dispatches the three-headed Jyaaku back to its own dark realm before turning her attention to Samurai Spawn. The Samurai, formerly known as Takeda, bows his head to receive the death blow he longs for. Instead, Lotus pardons the wild creature, leaving him to roam the ancient Japanese landscape in search of salvation."

"KNOWN FOR HIS SLOW, SILENT KILLS, SCORPION ASSASSIN..."

PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on Scorpion Assassin 6" action figure by McFarlane Toys, from Spawn Series 19 "Dark Ages Spawn: The Samurai Wars," released in July, 2001.

MINI-BIO: "Known for his slow, silent kills, Scorpion Assassin is a feudal Japanese Samurai warrior recruited by the Daimyo to kill one of his colleagues. Brash young Takeda, a Samurai recruit has ignored the key rule: Never draw your sword in anger. This behavior has marked Takeda for death. Scorpion, along with his partner Jackal Assassin, murders Takeda in a fury of slashing blows. But Takeda vows vengeance with his final breath. The dark rulers of the Underworld return Takeda to Japan as a Spawn. With the help of Dojo, Samurai Spawn tracks down Scorpion and makes him pay for his betrayal."

I am so traumatized by Netflix that I saw Blue Eye Samurai trending and I immediately assume it had been canceled, but it turns out it is trending just because people wanted to talk about it, which I totally understand.

Sigh

For the last fucking time, THE JEDI ARE NOT CATHOLIC!

They're not based off of the catholic church, that's just people's fanon interpretation (and it's mostly just people projecting their issues with catholicism onto the Jedi), if you actually take a minute to look up what George Lucas' sources and inspirations for the Jedi, you'll find that he based them off of everything EXCEPT christianity, the inspirations for the Jedi being Japanese and East Asian cultures, Arabic ideas (Jedi may be derived from "Al-Jeddi" which means "Master of the Mystic-Warrior way"), Buddhism, Jewish Mysticism, Samurai Bushido, Shaolin Monks, Hinduism, Qigong, Greco-Roman philosophy and mythology, Sufism, Confucianism, Shinto, and Taoism, the only christianity you might be able to say influenced the Jedi is Methodism, since Lucas was a Buddhist-Methodist

Like yes, you can certainly find Jedi beliefs and practices to be similar or parallel to catholicism and Christianity, I have, but that's on you, that's YOUR interpretation
