No yeah you're definitely right and it was very interesting learning about your personal experience with old manga/animes in the past. I personally had it easier in some ways, since I had access to my mother's manga collection which consisted of mostly RoV, Oniisama E and some Sailor Moon magazines. It wasn't much, but it got me hooked at a young age! (Maybe too young even, a six year old shouldn't read RoV imho)

However I didn't have a real private wifi connection until recently, so I feel you when you said about using shitty public wifi just to get a fansub episode, ahah. I remember spending hours at the library just to be able to download the KazeKI OAV in vhs quality, Ranma 1/2 episodes or Urusei Yatsura movies, just to name a few. If something wasn't being aired on TV or avaiable on that niche on-demand service my grandma had at home (Fastweb TV, it's lost media now), then I had to sail the seven seas somehow. Oh, right, I'm pretty sure I ripped several anime dvds from the library for this exact reason too, whoopsie!

I know it is said that Italy was the holy grail of anime releasing back in the day, but when I was born this market was dying out. If you were a kid and so, you couldn't watch grown up anime on MTV at midnight, then all you could do was hoping a public kids channel would rerun some old anime episodes now and then, and that was it. You had to learn how to pirate, even if the series you wanted to watch was well known.

(I know you could just buy home media releases, but they were VERY expensive. I pretty much only owned Olympus No Pollon and Sailor Moon, full stop.)

It was magical in its own way, because you had to dig up and try to gather as much information as possible with limited resources.

Ah dang, I'd love to see this Old Shoujo meme now.

I love how we're all kinda into the same types of media, Nagai stuff aside. So I made a meme about it with whatsapp photo editor, because why not. 😔🤝

Even though I only got to watch the first episode subbed, Pollon is absolutely adorable and sweet n fun character and the fourth-wall breaching dry sense of humor the show had was just amazing and hilarious!

Pollon il suo nome è...

Pollon (1977) by Hideo Azuma

[notmuchtoconceal]

Sauroctonos * Enn Meditation Chant [Also Abaddon / Apollyon / Apollo Serpentine Aspect, Sauroktonos, Abadon, Abbaton, Abaddown, Appolion, Appolyon, Apollo, Abaddon Shadai, Apolluon, Apolhun, Apollyn, Aggelos Abussos,

(Angel of the Abyss)] (1 Hour)

Magick audio of Lord Sauroctonos's enn, 1 Hour. Sauroctonos sigil.

Enn: Agios O Sauroctonos

Described as an infernal and serpentine angel and called "the Un-nameable One," Abaddon is the Angel of the Bottomless Pit. He rules over dark knowledge, poetry, sexual perversion, witchcraft (especially necromancy), medicine, isolation, music, temporal death, life in death, the sun and vampyrism. A great chief of demons and a lord of the abyss, he rules over death and disease. He is one of the four demonic gatekeepers, alongside Amaymon, Azazel and Belial.

Abaddon means "Destroyer". Its trilateral root is ABD, meaning "to perish." In Gematria, his name has a numerical value of 63, which corresponds to the phrases "the heart of a Beast" and "the Glory of God" as well as the words "prophet", "dung", "fervor", "builder", and "Binah's secret nature". Through an alternate method, Abaddon attains the value of 713 via Gematria, equating to "the Sphere of Saturn", and "return".

The name "Apollon" is often interpreted as "deprived of multitude", since pollon means "many" and a-is a negative. His number in Isopsephy is 1461, which relates to the words "foundation" and "matter".

According to the Heinsius, Abaddon is the same being as "the Red Dragon" or "Red Titan", Pytho / Python / Porphyrion, a dragon which Apollo is said to have killed in other myths after it attacked his mother (Leto / Lytona). Apollo killed Python, "The Demon Dragon", in order to usurp its ownership of a temple [Delphi]. Called "the Prince of War" and "the most august light of reason."

Serving Satan in the office of psychopomp, he holds the key to the Outer Darkness. He is the enemy of Uriel who saw Yeshua (Christ) crucified. According to Abramelin, he is an officer under Amaymon.

Abaddon is simply the incorporation of a previous Greek deity into magickal demonology. In Greek mythology, Apollo, the Lord of the Silver Bow, was venerated in festivals held on the new and dark moon and often given gifts of cinnamon.

Described as "shepherd-like in feature" and as very physically attractive, he ruled nature and sat beside Helena on Olympus. He was born on Asteria, the Golden Star Island known as "the earth which floats in the air". Other myths depict him being born in Hades.

Apollo is called the "far-striker" or "far-darter" and he is viewed as a god of archery. He guarded a hilltop wherin a certain Sibyl/prophetess integral to Greek mythology dwelled. Apollo, like his sister Artemis, often sent plagues and was both a "sinister" as well as "light" deity.

Apollo is the divine image of the principium individuationis and the apparition following the fourth logos, and he acts as an interpreter of dreams and he plays a seven-stringed lyre. He ruled over philosophy, prophecy, healing, magick, destruction, esotericism, and theatre. Apollo is the light of the life of the material world, but not of the soul. He is also purported to be the god of Hyperborea, the second continent, wheron the second race was born. Apollo is related to the sapphire, the metal gold, the plant Laurel, the elements of water and fire, the Far North, as well as the swan, the eagle, and the horse. The number 7 is considered sacred to him, so it's no wonder Abaddon leads the 7th legion.

One of the Greek's many names for Apollo was "Sauroctonos" meaning "Lizard Killer", and it's under this name that Apollon/Abaddon appears in the Septenary Tradition of the Order of the Nine Angels . Sauroctonos rules the 20th pathway leading from Mars to Saturn (remember that Abaddon was numerically connected to "the sphere of Saturn") and he corresponds to the ninth card of the sinister tarot. He is the lord of revelation and isolation who begets intimations of the Abyss. He causes hidden aspects of the self to manifest on the surface and he is depicted as an honorable and immortal warrior who begets psychological and occult evolution.

One of Apollo's names has a numerical value of 371, matching the Greek word for "birth". His names "Delphian" and "Pyhian / Pythius" number 769, which is equal to the Greek words for will, mind, thought, and feminine. Yet another number counts to 852, equaling "female slave", "the end", "last" and "thirty".

I have concluded that Abaddon, Apollo, and Sauroctonos are merely different aspects of the same being. It is possible that Apollo absorbed draconic/serpentine aspects after defeating Python, and that he went to join the demonic ranks in order to Battle Jehovah, and that he attained a demonic aspect as well in doing so.
