When Light is Shed On Ancient fables

There are depths to how archaeology gets properly conducted enables us understand the past,and learn to go for the future.So here are great cultural news :

Archaeological discovery in Shiraz may rewrite city’s history

TEHRAN - A new archaeological discovery beneath a local park in Shiraz, the capital of Fars province in southern Iran, may push back the historical timeline of the ancient city by several thousand years.

The stone tools were first discovered on a site, known as “Tall-e Badi,” beneath layers of concrete and mosaic flooring during a park extension project, Mehr reported on Monday.

It was in February 2020 when an archaeology student, participating in the park’s development project, accidentally found stone tools and reported them to his professor at the University of Shiraz.

After initial examinations, both the professor and renowned archaeologist Alireza Askari Chaverdi, who is currently the director of the Persepolis and Naqsh-e Rustam historical sites, confirmed the historical significance of the findings.

According to Houshang Esfandiaripour, a prominent archaeologist in Fars province, the stone tools have been found around an electrical grounding pit, at a depth of 1.5 meters, indicating they were near the top of the ancient hill. He believes these artifacts could led the archaeologists to a period older than the 7,000-year-old Tell Pustchi, another archaeological site in Shiraz.

Esfandiaripour suggests that if deeper layers of the hill are excavated, there may be evidence of civilizations even older than previously thought, potentially pushing the history of Shiraz back by another two or three millennia. He compared the stone tools found in Tall-e Badi to those from the Bakun era, indicating that this site could predate Tall-e Pustchi, where similar artifacts were unearthed.

Efforts to have the site officially registered as a national heritage location have been unsuccessful. Despite its significance, the authorities have yet to recognize Tell Badi’s historical value. Esfandiaripour expressed frustration over the lack of action, noting that less significant sites have received national recognition.

As mentioned by the archaeologists, the discovery holds the potential to offer a rare glimpse into Shiraz’s ancient past, as much of the city’s historical landscape has been lost to urban development.

Archaeologists are eager to continue investigating the site, hoping it will yield evidence that could transform the historical narrative of Shiraz and the surrounding Fars region.

Celebrated as the heartland of Persian culture for over 2000 years, Shiraz has become synonymous with education, nightingales, poetry, and crafts skills passed down from generation to generation. It was one of the most important cities in the medieval Islamic world and was the Iranian capital during the Zand dynasty from 1751 to 1794.

Shiraz is home to some of the country’s most magnificent buildings and sights. Increasingly, it draws more and more foreign and domestic sightseers flocking to this provincial capital.

Eram Garden, Afif-Abad Garden, Tomb of Hafez, Tomb of Sa’di, Jameh Mosque of Atigh, and Persepolis are among the historical, cultural, and ancient sites of Shiraz that are of interest to domestic and foreign tourists.

The ancient city is also home to some magnificent historical gardens such as Bagh-e Narenjestan and Eram Garden, which are top tourist destinations both for domestic and international sightseers.

Discover ‘Alexander’s Prison’ and its fabled dungeon

TEHRAN - This 15th-century domed structure, better known as Zendan-e Iskandar (“Alexander’s Prison”), derives its name from a reference in a Hafez poem and legends surrounding its origin

According to folklore, a deep well in its courtyard was constructed by Alexander the Great and used as a dungeon.

Situated in the heart of Yazd’s historical Fahadan neighborhood, this monument lies close to the eleventh-century Davazdeh Imam Shrine. The name Zendan-e Iskandar is tied to the tale of Alexander building a castle in this region to imprison captive princes. In some literary works, Yazd itself is referred to as Zendan-e Iskandar.

The mausoleum, located in the southeast corner, is connected to the courtyard and main iwan through two doorways. It is a square structure, 8.8 meters per side, supported by thick walls to bear the weight of its 18-meter-high dome. The mausoleum’s prominent dome dominates both the courtyard and the surrounding skyline.

Constructed primarily of mud brick, with baked brick used for the dome’s outer shell, the building features a decorative three-tier muqarnas cornice in the octagonal zone of transition. While the courtyard and surrounding spaces lack ornamentation, the tomb chamber’s interior is adorned with floriated Kufic inscriptions and painted plaster vegetal motifs, characteristic of the Muzaffarid period.

Historical accounts suggest the structure and its adjoining buildings were part of the Madarasa Ziaiyya, a religious school commissioned in the late 13th century during the Il-Khanid era by Ziya’ al-Din Husayn-e Razi and his family. According to the Tarikh-e Jadid-e Yazd (The New History of Yazd), the school featured a grand portal with towering minarets and was surrounded by opulent mansions equipped with tall wind catchers (badgirs). However, as noted by Iraj Afshar, the exact identification of the building as Madarasa Ziaiyya remains uncertain due to the absence of epigraphic evidence.

The existing structure follows a typical 13th-14th century madrasa layout, with a rectangular courtyard flanked by three iwans. The larger western iwan is accompanied by smaller northern and southern iwans, each adjacent to rectilinear cells of varying depths—likely the result of later alterations. At the courtyard’s center lies a payab, an underground chamber providing access to the qanat (underground water channel) beneath the building.

Zindan-e Iskandar served as a site for oil production until the 1970s and fell into disrepair before its restoration by the National Heritage Organization of Iran in the 1980s. Since then, it has become a tourist attraction.

A don’t-miss destination

In July 2017, Yazd’s historical core was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site. Visitors frequently describe Yazd as a must-see destination, celebrated for its mudbrick houses with innovative wind catchers (badgirs), atmospheric alleyways, and numerous Islamic and Iranian monuments that define its striking cityscape.

Cultural heritage experts view Yazd as a testament to the resourcefulness of its inhabitants in adapting to desert conditions. The city’s historical core is a treasure trove of mudbrick houses, bazaars, bathhouses, water cisterns, mosques, synagogues, Zoroastrian temples, and ancient gardens. Yazd’s harmonious coexistence of Islam, Judaism, and Zoroastrianism further enriches its cultural and spiritual heritage.

Archaeology conference kicks off in Tehran 

TEHRAN-The 22nd edition of the Annual Archaeology Conference commenced at the National Museum of Iran in Tehran on Sunday.

The conference opened with the presence of the Minister of Cultural Heritage, Tourism, and Handicrafts Seyyed Reza Salehi-Amiri, as well as Mohammad Ebrahim Zarei, the head of Iran's Research Institute of Cultural Heritage and Tourism, Mohammad Beheshti, the former director of the institute and a select group of prominent professors and veterans in archaeology, CHTN reported. 

Speaking at the ceremony, Jebrael Nokandeh, director of the National Museum of Iran welcomed the attendees and highlighted the conference as an opportunity for the exchange of ideas and scientific collaboration among archaeologists.

He also mentioned an exhibition showcasing selected findings from archaeological research conducted in Iran in 2023, featuring 273 artifacts unearthed from 13 archaeological sites. This exhibition will be open until April 19.

During the ceremony, a book compiling articles from the 22nd Annual Archaeology Conference was unveiled, along with a summary of findings from archaeological research in Iran for 2023, an archaeology journal, and ten archaeology reports.

Additionally, the exhibition of selected findings from the 2023 archaeological fieldwork in Iran was inaugurated in the presence of Seyyed Reza Salehi-Amiri.

Archaeology in Iran boasts a rich and diverse history, reflecting the complex tapestry of civilizations that have inhabited the region for thousands of years. As one of the cradles of human civilization, Iran's archaeological landscape is replete with significant sites that offer insights into ancient cultures, trade routes, and the development of urban centers.

One of the most notable archaeological sites in Iran is Persepolis, the ceremonial capital of the Achaemenid Empire. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site, Persepolis showcases magnificent palaces, monumental staircases, and intricate reliefs that depict the grandeur of Persian culture and its architectural achievements.

Excavations at this site have revealed valuable artifacts, including inscriptions, pottery, and precious metals, shedding light on the political and social structure of ancient Persia.

Another critical area of archaeological interest is the Zagros Mountains, where early human settlements date back to the Paleolithic period. Some of these sites are pivotal for understanding the transition from nomadic lifestyles to settled agriculture, as well as the development of complex societies during the Neolithic era.

Additionally, Iran’s archaeological pursuits have unveiled the significance of the Silk Road, which facilitated trade and cultural exchanges between the East and West. The discovery of caravanserais, ancient fortresses, and intricate pottery illustrates Iran's role as a hub in this extensive network.

Research in Iranian archaeology has faced challenges, including fluctuating funding for the preservation of historical sites. However, the commitment of local scholars and international collaborations continues to foster advancements in the field. 

Modern archaeological practices involve the use of technology such as satellite imagery and remote sensing, enhancing the exploration and documentation of Iran's extensive archaeological heritage.

Archaeology in Iran is vital in reconstructing the narratives of ancient civilizations, highlighting the region's historical significance and the enduring legacy of its cultural heritage.

The Ancient Starting of Animation

If anyone still thiunks that animation is something "all new invention" I would give him'her the suggestion to reconsider it. Cause recently an Iranian tourism chief addressed how lands with ancient,rich hitory pioneered.

Addressing the closing ceremony of a local photo and short film festival, Hassanpour highlighted ancient rock engravings in the Humian region of Lorestan, which depicts a deer in five different stances, creating an early form of animation.

According to Hassanpour, this rock art, dating back thousands of years, represents the earliest recorded idea of animation in human history.

“The rock art illustrates the deer’s movement across five distinct poses, making it the oldest animation in the world, encapsulating the first form of film, photography, and early human thought,” he said.

While some have argued that a similar pottery found in Shahr-e Sukhteh [a UNESCO-registered site also known as the Burnt City] located in southeastern Iran holds this title, Hassanpour asserts that the artwork from Lorestan predates it.

The official emphasized that historical context supports Lorestan’s claim as the origin of the world’s first animation.

Further elaborating on the province’s rich heritage, Hassanpour also mentioned the ancient rock carvings and petroglyphs of Lorestan, particularly those found on the Suren mountain in the Humian region, and other areas across the province. These markings were first uncovered and introduced to the world by [Charles Brian Montagu] McBurney [who was a British-American archaeologist] and Iranian researcher [Hamid] Izadpanah in 1969, and have since contributed to the global recognition of Lorestan’s historical significance.

In his speech, Hassanpour stressed the importance of tourism development in the region, noting that attracting investors is crucial for the province’s ongoing bid for global heritage recognition. “The tourism sector is essential to the province’s future, and we urgently need investors to support this effort,” he remarked.

The festival, which aimed to promote the region’s lesser-known attractions, is seen as a step towards improving Lorestan’s visibility as a tourist destination. “There is much work behind every photo and film, and such festivals play a crucial role in showcasing the untold stories of Lorestan,” Hassanpour added.

He concluded by expressing pride in the province’s deep cultural and historical roots, emphasizing the importance of continuous efforts to introduce Lorestan to the world. He also hoped for the future inclusion of the Khorramabad Valley in the UNESCO World Heritage list, with the collaborative efforts of all stakeholders.

Small Luristan bronze artworks, usually dated about 1000 to 650 BC, reached the outside world from the late 1920s and are found in museums all over the world, where they are valued for their vigorous style, with many representations of animals. But actually, the beginning of this bronze-making tradition goes back to the mid–3rd millennium BC.

Home to various natives nomad and tribal communities, Lorestan included the Medes, c. 1000 BC as well. Cimmerians and Scythians intermittently ruled the region from about 700 to 625 BC. The Luristan (Lorestan) Bronzes noted for their eclectic array of Assyrian, Babylonian, and Iranian artistic motifs, date from this turbulent period. Moreover, Lorestan was incorporated into the growing Achaemenid Empire in about 540 BC and successively was part of the Seleucid, Parthian, and Sasanid dynasties.

A Wholesome Musical.

Musical play “Coraline” to go on stage in Tehran.

Warning: There are allegations that 5 women have come forward stating sexual assault/rape at the hands of Neil Gaiman. I make the post only as cultural while pending how will the police investigation go.

Iran has featured for many times in the International news, but it's wrong how they put it. Such as the cultural aspect they don't give any attention to. So it's a surprise that an Iranian musical adaptation of the English author Neil Gaiman’s 2002 novella “Coraline” will go on stage in a Tehran theater next month.

Let's get into the details:)

Omidreza Sepehri is the director of the play, which will be taken to the stage after a year and a half of rehearsal, Mehr reported. 

"Coraline" is a dark fantasy horror novella that follows a young girl named Coraline Jones who moves into a new home with her parents. Their new residence is an old house divided into flats, inhabited by quirky neighbors, including two retired actresses, Miss Spink and Miss Forcible, and an eccentric man known as Mr. Bobo.

Coraline's life becomes mundane and frustrating as she struggles to gain her parents' attention, who are often distracted by their work. One day, during a rainy afternoon, she discovers a locked door in her living room, which is bricked up. Despite warnings from Mr. Bobo's mice about the dangers behind the door, and Miss Spink’s ominous predictions after reading her tea leaves, Coraline's curiosity compels her to unlock it when she is alone at home. To her surprise, she finds a passage that leads to a parallel world, eerily similar to her own.

In this "Other World," Coraline meets her Other Mother and Other Father, who are perfect versions of her real parents, offering excessive attention and affection. However, their exaggerated features, particularly button eyes, unsettle Coraline. This new reality initially seems enticing; her Other Parents pamper her, toys come to life, and the world is colorful and vibrant. However, the allure quickly fades when the Other Mother reveals her true intentions: she wants Coraline to stay forever and have buttons sewn into her eyes. Horrified, Coraline escapes back to her own world, only to discover that her real parents have vanished.

With the help of a mysterious talking black cat, Coraline learns that her parents are trapped in the Other World, and it is her mission to rescue them. The cat guides her back to confront the Other Mother, allowing Coraline to challenge her in a game. The stakes are high: if Coraline wins, she can free herself, her parents, and the souls of three ghost children trapped by the Other Mother. If she loses, she must give in to the Other Mother's demand.

During the game, she faces various obstacles and uses clever tactics, as well as a lucky adder stone given to her by Miss Spink, to locate the lost souls of the ghost children. They warn her that even if she wins, the Other Mother may still try to keep them imprisoned. Ultimately, Coraline deduces that her parents are trapped in a snow globe on the Other Mother's mantelpiece. By tricking the Other Mother, she manages to reclaim the snow globe and escapes back to her own world, slamming the door behind her and severing the Other Mother’s hand in the process.

Back in her own world, Coraline finds her parents safe, albeit with no memory of their captivity. However, that night she dreams of the ghost children, who alert her that the Other Mother’s severed hand is still trying to regain the key that connects both worlds. To prevent further danger, Coraline leads the hand to a well in the woods and casts it down, ensuring her safety and reaffirming her courage.

"Coraline" wraps up with her returning to her ordinary life, now fully appreciating and loving her real home and parents, having faced and overcome the darkness of the Other World. The novella explores themes of bravery, the complexities of family dynamics, and the idea that one should value reality, even with its imperfections, over alluring fantasies.

In 2009, director Henry Selick released a critically acclaimed stop-motion film adaptation of "Coraline," which saw moderate box office success. The film received a nomination for Best Animated Feature at the 82nd Academy Awards but lost to Pixar's "Up." While the adaptation features notable changes—such as the Beldam transforming the Other Father into a pumpkin—it largely adheres to the book's original plot. 

The story has also inspired various theatrical adaptations. A musical, featuring music and lyrics by Stephin Merritt with a book by David Greenspan, premiered off-Broadway in 2009. A new musical adaptation is also set to premiere at the Leeds Playhouse in 2025.

Ikigai is now available in Persian

Persian audiobook of “Ikigai” released

This cool, profound book about the art of personal growth has been in my possession for 5 years now. I'm so glad about it:) So now I found the news in the TehranTimes:

It is a short book about making life meaningful and in the process, living a long time. Centered around the Japanese concept of Ikigai, the authors bring the knowledge from the East to the West giving readers the tools to live better.

According to the Japanese, everyone has an ikigai–a reason for living. And according to the residents of the Japanese island of Okinawa–home to the world’s longest-living people–finding it is the key to a happier and longer life.

Inspiring and soothing, the book will bring readers closer to these centenarians’ secrets: how they leave urgency behind; keep doing what they love for as long as possible; nurture friendships; live in the moment; participate in their communities; and throw themselves into their passions. And it provides practical tools to help people discover their own personal ikigai.

Hector Garcia is a citizen of Japan, where he has lived for over a decade, and of Spain, where he was born.

💕✨My Dearest Zanna💕✨

Disclaimer: Zanna Huygens is created by the American thriller author Joseph Finder. She's in his second novel, Extraordinary Powers (1994).

I got very interested in her. I like her so much.😄 So on 4/21/2024/ I asked his permission to make a post of her:

"Hi, Dear sir. Many years ago you crafted the novel "Extraordinary Powers". I'm quite interested in only one character(of the novel): The redhead girl Zanna Huygens(Zurich arc). Can I write my kind feelings about her, on my Tumblr, along with attached related drawings of mine? Of course, I'll put credits. My blog https://ashitakaxsan.tumblr.com/ "

As he replied on 4/23/2024: "Thanks for the kind words! I'm flattered that Zanna has inspired you, and have no objections to your sharing fan art on your Tumblr. Best wishes, Joe Finder".

Each art below is mine:

As I write this letter, my heart overflows with the emotions I've longed to express to you. From the moment our paths crossed, I knew there was something extraordinary about you. Your beauty, grace, and strength captivate me in ways words can scarcely describe.

I see beyond the surface, past the walls you've built to protect yourself. I see the vulnerable soul within, longing for solace and connection in a chaotic world. I want you to know that you are not alone, Zanna.

I am here, standing by your side, ready to offer you my unwavering support and love. While I may not fully grasp the intricacies of your past, I am committed to journeying with you, hand in hand, every step of the way.

While I haven’t had much time to prepare something elaborate for today, I didn’t want to leave you hanging. So here’s a little hint: think fandom love mixed with creative surprises—all coming your way soon! 🎉💡

In the meantime, I’d love to hear what you all have been up to lately. Any exciting projects or hobbies you’ve been working on? Let’s chat in the comments while I finish up this mega project! And stay tuned, because there’s a lot of fun content on the horizon 😉

🎉Franky: The Unsung Hero of Spy x Family 🕵️‍♂️💥

Franky Franklin seemed like the goofy, lighthearted informant in Spy x Family, but Chapter 105 shows how much rigorous training he underwent. Besides the humor and awkward moments, Franky is a man who plays many roles—some light, some heavy, all vital to the mission and to those around him.

On a day that feels almost ordinary for Franky, we see him waking up in the morning to Japanese karakuri. Interestingly also he starts his morning ritual by enjoying listening to government-banned music. 🎉 🌟 As a well-functioning informant he listens to Fiona Chan's request for a "forged pass for the Podam School of Science. Cool that agent Nightfall(our cute, lovable Kuudere is here) has absolutely recovered after the fight against Mole Wheeler. And he's got the guts to remind her how has wants to be treated :)

and a man still holding out hope for love. His day starts with babysitting Anya, a task that, for anyone else, would be overwhelming. But for him, it’s just another part of his vigilant life. His relationship with Anya is one of the most endearing parts of his character—he’s her goofy uncle figure, someone who can make her laugh and doesn’t mind stepping up when needed. The man is a solid uncle figure, he makes it where Yuri simply fails. 🎭✨

As he takes the fee he goes to invest the money to a bet in horse races, but he's unlucky.

So he's up again to get info about any lucky route. that's when he hears the bad news from the teller. The only informant regarding access to gates 4 and above, Latchkey Lachy(whoever he is) got arrested by the always-feared force throughout Ostania, the SSS! So there's the looming menace of the Secret police.

What’s striking is his relentless optimism—even in the face of constantly changing hideouts and near-constant danger, Franky holds onto the hope that one day, he’ll find love. That's why now he's on a date with a familiar girl, Priscilla, and they'll go to watch a movie.

It’s this mix of resilience and vulnerability that makes him so relatable. He’s a man living in the shadows, often overlooked, but still working to hold onto the idea that there’s more to life than just survival.

Suddenly the news comes: Their teller is arrested "by the you-know-who": The SSS who has him, and Franky has to act quickly to save him.

The way Franky charges in and saves him is Amazing: He steps up prepared, with an effective plan as a real spy, saving the teller from the clutches of the SSS.🕵️‍♂️🛡️👧

The seeming "flower bouquet" is actually a pistole of smoke gas to make the SSS interrogators lose their focus, briefly and it works!

Watch this. How he gives them an awful time:

As they see the SSS reinforcements arriving he says: "They're welcome to try. But I'm going to show them just how hard catching rats can be!" With goggles for concealment, he fights them, using a real handgun, he presses a secret button to open a hatch, and they escape with his well big balloon:)!

This is Franky at his best—quick and profound thinking, resourceful, and willing to risk everything for the people he cares about. In this moment, we see his true heroism. He may not have the physical strength of Yor, but Franky's improved, worthy peer of Twilight. He’s a man who understands the dangers of the world he’s in, yet continues to put himself on the line.

Then he listens to Priscilla, about how she has found a boy to chaperone to the movies.🤔💔 Despite the disappointment, he calls it a good day.

Thus he and the teller go to watch a romance movie:

"How did he get so determined for the rigorous training?" you'll ask me the question.

The failings for finding love didn't get the better of him, so he made up his mind: To become someone as effective as the two people he's looking up to: Twilight and Nightfall.💪🕵️‍♂️🤔

Franky’s ability to juggle these different aspects of his life—his spy duties, his loyalty to his friends, and his optimism for happiness—makes him one of the most vital characters in Spy x Family. He reminds us that even the seemingly ordinary people in a story filled with super spies and assassins can have profound, heroic moments.

Utterly futile the thoughts, hopes for a romance Anya x Damian (Spy x Family)

Warnings:

a)It contains many Spoilers.

b) Never trust fully the Wiki articles about this or any fandom. Understanding the incidents, events, and motives behind any action requires seeing, and reading the series. Why? See below.

The fandom of Spy x Family is buzzing with excitement over the possibility of an Anya x Damian romance. I used to believe about a romance. It’s easy to see why: Two young kids from opposite worlds, with the weight of their families and expectations pressing down on them, working to navigate the uneasy waters of Eden College.

Is the whole setup for a classic romance realistic? Is it something Anya should even want?

How could've the WISE director assumed it so easy that any kid could become a buddy of this boy?

Damian Desmond: Arrogance Born of Privilege

From the moment Damian Desmond stepped into Eden College, he clearly feels like the center of the universe and demands the people be his humble acolytes. His father’s shadow looms large, shaping his every interaction and decision. Damian’s arrogance is not just a personal trait—it’s a survival mechanism in a world where his family’s name is everything.

Chapter 8:

His constant dismissal and disdain for many of his peers, especially Anya, highlight a deep-seated sense of superiority that stems from his upbringing. And he can

Anya is established as a weird contrast,the child of "commoners" in a big lake full of children of wealthy and prestigious .: Officially her father is a "psychiatrist at Berlint Hospital", and her mother a clerk at Berlint City Hall. She has to keep secret the true professions of both her father "Loid", aka secret agent of WISE Twilight, and of her surrogate mother Yor, aka "Thorn Princess", the best professional assassin in the whole of Ostania, employed by the Secret organization "Garden".

Spoilers follow. A need to understand how badly all started between them, on the orientation day at Eden College.

"What do your parents do? Depending on how important they are, I could let you be my friend." "Papa is a mind doctor".

"Hmpf, that's not special. I bet you're poor too."

And the situation kept going bad: Anya despite smiling around-confirmed she's higher than petty mentality- got her the intense anger of Damian and the high appreciation by Becky Blackblell. 'You're more mature than I thought. I see you in a new light".

Insult upon insult by him made her punch him. She could get expelled, but Housemaster Henderson loosened the demerit bending it to a Tonitrus. Her first ever.

Her eventual attempts to tear-filled apology to him have failed(:

Anya's attempts to befriend him, as usual, derive from the desire to boost her father’s mission, feels like a Sisyphean task *1—one she’s dutifully shouldered despite Damian’s either silent or obvious contempt.

"Shut up and give me the paper".

See below the Sisyphean task.

Chapter 37 of how he shuns the other kids, classmates

Rain of Tonitrus: A Case of Urgent Help, and Selfishness

Below Chapter 61: Her kind move of lending her handkerchief to Damian, saving him from a Tonitrus to ensure Plan B. But she didn't have a reserve, thus resulting in her second Tonitrus. Talk about self-sacrifice for a mission with a high priority: Saving the fragile peace between the West and the East. Watch how confident she is, having assumed she can make it nice and clean.

She saved him from a Tonitrus, by taking one she didn't deserve. Read him well, without the stupid notions "he has a crush on her"," he's a tsundere" etc. As we see his intense anger on Anya: What's not apparent isn't her move, but the selfish boy's discrimination about where he'll find a hand of help. His squinting, angry glare is one of his traits. "I can't tell you how it sickens me to be indebted to the likes of you", he says to her.

Anya’s everyday struggle to connect with Damian is both painful and telling. For her, working to win his friendship isn’t only about achieving her father’s goals—it’s about navigating the complex social hierarchies of a world so different from the one she had known. But let’s face it: Damian isn’t just a “tsundere” waiting to be melted by Anya’s kindness. His disdain is real, and it’s rooted in his belief that being a Desmond is an inherent privilege that sets him above others. Is it really fair to expect 5-year-old Anya to unlock the closed, stone-cold heart of an utterly Arrogant, Belligerent kid?

The Hijacked Buses Arc

I disagree with fans who call her "not smart". Due to the rough treatment, at the hands of the mysterious organization, she grew a resentment on studying. In a way that is yet to be revealed, these scientists could never even anticipate her actions, she made an effective plan and escaped from their facilities. It's an indication of her possessing a decent level of street smarts.

Even a great gift, such as mind reading, demands a degree of sharpness. The moment she read Vadim's mind about his decision to bomb the school bus when the SSS Commandos would storm it, she knew she had to buy time to save her classmates, and the commandos as well. Surprisingly ,against all odds, she managed to persuade the leader of the Red Circus to abandon their agenda and surrender to the authorities.

Thanks to her quick, profound thinking, everyone emerged from the crisis unscathed. So it seemed everything would come for her: Combined with his debt to her, her handkerchief, and the crisis solution: having achieved friendship(on good, solid foundations) with Damian and his trusted acolytes, Euen and Emil. So saving the peace.

But sadly, the good momentum lasted only a short time.

In chapter 88 "Elite Tea Cakes" observe him. He's about to puk because of a warm touch of hers.

Once he gave her the Elit Tea Cakes he reverted to his known selfishness, carnivorous mode.

The DEE trio quickly reverted to their usual arrogance, hostility, and insults, branding Anya as "stupid," a "poor kid who can’t find enough food to eat."3*

Below is Chapter 92: His open joy about her upcoming disastrous exam results:

BelowChapter 95:Where he viciously rejects her invitation to dance along , at the School's Gala:

Chapter 96.5Just study how much she's appalled by their cruel insults:

Below as translated: How cruel of Damian(:

Poor Anya, probably she was about to yell at them: "I saved your lives, during the Hijacked Buses Crisis, and now you trash call me?!"

In such moments is exposed just how deep Damian’s prejudices run. Unmovable.

"But why the Hijacked Buses Arc potentially could've helped out Anya's efforts?", you would ask me to know. Because they were in the grasp of the Red Circus. Their menacing guns reminded them that wealth, high social position, and prestige of families made them desirable assets for these gunmen. Being as much humble, without bragging, in this dire time was the one that could save them from any harm. And she put her quick, profound mentality to save them, without a scratch. Namely as the ancient narration of Damocles's Sword *2:

Below: The harsh reminder of the narration(Spy x Family chapter 72)

The Potential for Anya’s Freedom

What if the key to her freedom isn’t winning Damian’s favor, but uncovering the sinister plans of his father, Donovan Desmond?

Yes, in an unexpected twist that would be far more satisfying than a forced friendship, finding the crucial documents to decipher Donovan’s schemes would free her. She wouldn't be burdened anymore to navigate Damian’s disdainful world. Thus focused on her true mission: Protecting her family and maintaining the fragile peace between the East and West.

If I could say something to Damian, it would be this:

"If you think she’s stupid, just how would you have effectively talked to the leader of the Red Circus, Billy Squire, and solved the crisis?"

Anya’s actions during the hostage situation prove she has strength and wisdom far beyond what the trio DEE(an acronym for Damian, Emil, Euen) gives her credit for. Their inability to see that only underscores how blinded they are by their own privilege and arrogance.

The Self-deception of People Hyped for the Romance:

By the way, they claim:

a)"Damian is capable of self-sacrifice to the detriment of his interests. A rare exception is when he protects Anya from a ball in a dodgeball game, willingly getting himself eliminated. Though it did not help their class win the game, Anya recognized Damian's good nature". And b)"He showed bravery and selflessness when he tried to save Anya, demanding that the terrorists hang a bomb on him instead of her".

However, a cold examination of his so-called selflessness reveals something ugly:

a)In chapter 15, during the dodgeball his insights are quite clear:

" I don't have time to waste on shrimps like her. I got to get MVP in this game so I can score a star. I need to become an Imperial Scholar like my brother did. Otherwise, Dad won't pay any mind to me at all". That's the explanation of why he took the hit. The ambition to make it, on the other hand, if Anya would fail he could assert control over her or even seek validation from his peers and his father. By "saving" her in a public setting, Damian subtly reasserts his dominance over her—positioning himself as the protector and keeping Anya in a role where she is indebted to him. It’s not about kindness but about reinforcing a power dynamic.

Anya at this moment is tired, and disappointed about her failure to give a strong hit. So she needed a compassionate gesture, such how Becky came to give her. If say, he's supposedly kind why in the world does he angrily shout to her, in his carnivorous mode: "What the heck sort of crap throw was that? I sacrificed myself for nothing!" "You really are mean": Anya.

What is weird is how Becky has never questioned Anya, on why she persists in cozying to Damian despite all his constant insults.

b)"Another rare moment was in their classroom when a girl from their class was spreading a rude rumor about how Anya got her first Stella Star, Damian stood up for her, recognizing Anya's merit". Wrong. All he stood up for was the high status of the school he and his brother attend to.

c))"He showed bravery and selflessness when he tried to save Anya, demanding that the terrorists hang a bomb on him instead of her".Wrong again. His true, ulterior motives are his envy of her public stance, and living up to his family’s expectations. In his point, he was scared, So he asked for the bomb for the sake of saving face, "he's never intimidated by anyone-including a Red Circus extremist".

Conclusion: A Romance That Wasn’t Meant to Be?

As fans continue to root for an Anya x Damian romance, it’s important to consider the deeper implications of such a relationship. Damian’s arrogance, born from his father’s influence, makes him an awful match for Anya. Certainly rather than striving for his friendship, Anya’s true path lies in uncovering the documented dark secrets of the Desmond family—a tedious task with far-reaching consequences for both her family and the world.

Do you really think there's hope for Anya and Damian, or is their relationship doomed to remain adversarial? And what does Donovan’s philosophy say about the future of Ostania—and the potential for love and peace in this fractured world? Let’s discuss this in the comments!

*1: In Greek mythology, the story of Sisyphus is a well-known tale of eternal struggle. Sisyphus was condemned, for his crimes, by the gods to roll a boulder up a hill, only for it to roll back down each time he neared the summit. This endless cycle of futile effort has since given rise to the term “Sisyphean task,” Namely any pointless, fruitless, and unrewarding task that must be repeated repeatedly; an endless task. 

*2 The Tale of the Sword of Damocles. A harrowing reminder of the dangers of power and imminent destruction. Damocles’ sword refers to the Greek legend about King Dionysius I of Syracuse and his courtier, Damocles, a person we would refer to today as a brown-noser.

The King had grown weary of Damocles’ constant flattery. When Damocles referred to the king as “the happiest of men” Dionysius decided to teach him a lesson. He invited him to a banquet and ordered him to sit in the same place for the event. Over the chair was hung a sword held by a single hair. In this way, the king demonstrated to him just how precarious the position of a king, who, although he had access to many luxuries and pleasant distractions, always lived under the shadow of a horrid death. 4,5

The Legacy Unmasked: Decoding the Finale of "My Hero Academia"

My Tumblr readers, after a decade-long journey, with chapter #430 the manga "My Hero Academia" has concluded its epic tale of heroes, villains, and the indomitable spirit of humanity. In the final chapter, Kohei Horikoshi masterfully ties loose ends, leaving readers with fulfillment and hope. The epilogue is confirming that true heroism transcends mere abilities. Deku’s journey isn’t just about powers; it’s about resilience, compassion, and the relentless pursuit of justice. Here’s what you need to know:

1. Deku’s Inspiring Journey: Izuku Midoriya "Deku", our determined protagonist, our determined protagonist, graduates from U.A. despite losing his powerful quirk, One For All, in a climactic battle against Shigaraki. His indomitable spirit and sacrifice inspire heroes across society, proving that true heroism transcends mere super abilities. Even though Izuku suffered grievous injuries, chapter #424 of My Hero Academia, the final chapter sees him returning to U.A. and continuing in the hero course. In this one, Aoyama leaves U.A. and Shinso joins Class 1-A in his stead. Despite having only the fading embers of One For All, Deku becomes a teacher in U.A. High School.

2. An improved Hero Society: The aftermath of Deku’s final battle brings societal transformation. Civilians step up, sharing the burden with heroes. No longer passive bystanders, they actively contribute to maintaining peace. It’s a powerful reminder that heroism isn’t exclusive to capes and cowls; it resides within us all. Example?

Namely as seen in chapter #429, where an old woman sees a little boy in distress and takes his hand, reminded of the time she ignored a young Tenko on the streets. As such, the finale sees civilians lighten the load on heroes by taking on some of the responsibility to reach out and help others, even if they may be weak or quirkless like Deku.

3. Class 1-A’s Triumphs: Deku’s classmates shine brightly. Shoto and Bakugo become top heroes, each with their unique strengths. Shoji receives recognition for peacefully resolving conflicts involving heteromorph discrimination. Kirishima gains popularity among men. Even Aoyama’s departure and Shinso’s arrival mark growth and change

4)Moving forward: The chapter also provides us with updates, on the lives of other valuable characters. Mei Hatsume has started a design agency called Lightly Labs, and Tentacole has received a peace prize. The hero landscape has shifted, with fewer villains emerging, requiring only a handful of powerful heroes to protect humanity. Characters like Ingenium, Froppy, Creati, and Uravity now tour schools and engage in roles like Quirk counselling, led by Uravity. Such roles have become common in the setting now.

5)A Hero is to heal the fractured bonds

Indeed, Izuku, our steadfast hero, played an essential role in healing the fractured bonds within the Shimura family. Let’s delve into the heartwarming moments:

Nana Shimura and Her Son, Kotaro:

Nana Shimura, despite her heroic duties, deeply loved her son, Kotaro. However, fearing for his safety, she sent him away to protect him from the clutches of All For One.

Tragically, Kotaro grew up resenting Nana, believing she abandoned him. He considered her a demon, blaming her for prioritizing heroism over family1.

Izuku’s bravery and kindness allowed Nana’s spirit to reunite with her son. She sought forgiveness, and through this miraculous encounter, old wounds began to heal.

2.Tomura Shigaraki (Tenko) and Nana:

Nana’s grandson, Tomura Shigaraki, bore the scars of Kotaro’s abusive upbringing. His path toward villainy was partly a consequence of Nana’s choices as a mother.

In a poignant moment, Nana acknowledged her role in Tomura’s descent. She realized the evil he had become but also sensed a child crying for help within him.

Izuku’s determination to save rather than kill Tomura touched Nana’s heart. He reminded her that One For All is a power meant for salvation, not destruction

6)Encouraging the young students to the path of a true Hero.

My Hero Academia's epilogue mirrors this sentiment once again, with Deku is encouraging a young boy, named Dai, that he too can be a hero albeit quirk is relatively weak. The young boy mirrors Deku in many ways, from his timid demeanor to the way he also instinctively moves to help another.

His question even reminds Deku of the similar one he posed to All Might at the very start of the series, and much like All Might did back then, Deku also reassures the young boy that he can be a hero as well. Thus, while Deku does not become the next Symbol of Peace like All Might, he does become an inspiring figure with his final battle urging quirk society to change down to its very roots.

Conclusion: As we bid farewell to My Hero Academia, we carry its lessons: courage, unity, and the belief that ordinary individuals can ignite extraordinary change. The finale matters because it reminds us that heroism isn’t about power alone—it’s about heart, sacrifice, and the legacy we leave behind

Honoring Christ, in a main avenue in Tehran!

In my (and many people's) dismay in Paris, 2024, the essence of the Olympics was intentionally ridiculed. The arrangement of a theatrical play, parodying Da Vinci's "The Last Supper" with actors drag queens, a transexual, and a foolish actor posing as "Dionysus" was a heinous, disgusting act of the secularists of France.

I don't care about their worthless rhetorics of them saying "we're sorry", and "we didn't mean to offend anyone". They did intend to ridicule Christ and his teachings. Sigh(:

But amid this darkness emerges from Tehran, the capital of Iran, good Light. On the main highway, the Iranians raised a huge poster with "The Last Supper", the very being mocked by the West! The poster is accompanied by the verse of Qur'an 4: 171 "Jesus Christ, the son of Mary, was a messenger, the prophet of God." 4:171.

It's in my mind the Biblical magi(plural for Magus): The distinguished wise men, who journeyed from lands of the East to visit Jesus after his birth. Bearing gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh in homage to his birth. Among them was Melchior (Melichior, Melchyor) from Persia(today Iran).

Below is what is found in the sixth-century Basilica of Sant' Apollinare Nuovo in Ravenna, Italy. The Biblical Magi.

And it's a fact that the Quran honors Christ, as a messenger, prophet of God.

But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. Gospel of John 14:26

We gave Jesus, the son of Mary, clear proofs and supported him with the Holy Spirit. Qur’an 2:87; 2:253

“I am indeed a slave of Allah. He has given me the Book and made me a Prophet, and He has made me blessed wherever I may be. And He has enjoined upon me prayers, and to pay the alms, as long as I live and (He has made me) kind to my mother.” Quran 19:30–32

"Why are you seeing as benevolent quotes in the Quran and the belief of Muslims, particularly of the Iranians?", you would ask me the question. Well, they do defend him. And I find sick the notions of secularists, that call him anything-but not being something divine. Even as Prophet Christ matters.

Kudos Iranians, you made something so benevolent, contrary to the unbeliever West.

ایرانیان ، شما چیزی خیلی خیرخواهانه درست کردید ، برخلاف غرب کافر.
