Bunch of (Older) Asks [P.3 / Finale]

1. this is the most minor thing in comparison to, y’know (gestures at the entirety of L0), but the ‘kore-cob’ nickname bothers me SO much. like either ms. rachel ‘i know more about greek mythology than you’ ‘second coming of hesiod’ smythe thinks kore is pronounced like ‘core’ as in apple core or she just didn’t care that the pun fails on a structural level and just threw it in there anyway and i honestly don’t know which one is worse LOL

2. How is Persephone this smart, competition winning girl when she doesn’t even know how to use a computer? It’s so weird and doesn’t really make much sense? Like Demeter could surely afford to buy her a smartphone and laptop for school. And if you want to go into the whole helicopter mom narrative RS could simply write that Demeter child locked everything?

3. One of the biggest issues in LO is the age gap between Persephone and Hades and LO fans and RS constantly try to defend that by saying that they’re gods so it’s doesn’t really matter. Well, if it doesn’t matter why was it made such a big deal in the comic? Hecate, Hera and even Hades himself kept making the age gap a big deal (Persephone being a naive 19 year old and Hades being the 2000+ year old king) It is weird and creepy bc that’s what the comic insinuated as well in many chapters... and then it was dropped off like it was nothing. If age doesn’t matter between the gods then why give them an age? And why give then human rules and laws? Their ages simply being mentioned in the comic and then the age gap not being made into a big deal than the main characters themselves factoring their age in regards to the relationship.

4. On the latest LO episode apparently Hecates true form is just a human body with three head where the centre head is turned upside down and there is a half upside down moon above her head. In the middle of the comic her head turns normal again and the moon disappears (the three heads are still there tho). You can literally see that RS and her team do not care at all about the artwork and just draw a quick doodle and colour it and yet again her fans will somehow find some meaning in it??

5. I guess 1 week in LO timeline equals 1 year in human time.. either way RS is milking LO to the point where there’s going to be nothing. It’s sad actually bc if done proper research and writing beforehand LO would have had much more success and far less backlash. And if RS wanted to include other gods stories she could have made series for them instead of putting everything into one storyline. This is another issue with LO where it claims to be a modernised retelling of Hades and Persephone story (even though there’s not much about this from mythology but anw) however adding the stories of other gods into this mostly creates confusion and just not a good story line.

6. The art inconsistency in LO is just another way of RS and her team simply not caring and just making a sketches and that’s it and it is also incredibly problematic. One of the best examples is Persephone where in some panels she literally looks like a 6th grader with huge boobs and in some panels she looks like a 30 year old woman. It’s not just about the way she dresses but also her face features. Hades as well goes from looking like a late 30-40 year old to a 60 year old grandpa. We know a bunch of info about each character however due to the art inconsistencies we can’t really place a timeline neither associate the information given with the character. How are we supposed to associate Persephone as this powerful fertility goddess when she looks like a child? Or how are we supposed to think that she looks 19 when in some panels she looks like she’s in her late 20s? These inconsistent create a gap and distance between the characters and the reader.
