Zeus was the worst person for Hera to be with. She’s the goddess of marriage (a mortal concept) and infidelity/divorce is her antithesis, so it’s hopeless

[@youmode562]

You telling me the other gods were better? Seriously?!. I can tell that you don’t know much about the Greek mythology

[@jaieantoniano1122]

@@youmode562 Zeus is one of the worst gods in greek there's no doubt about that. But there are other gods more crueler, he's just a cheating arrogant bastard

[@jaieantoniano1122]

@@youmode562 Hades cheated two times unlike Zeus who literally sleep with countless women. Ares is the worst and most pathetic god, I agree with that but you can't deny Zues was one of the worst, dude was so arrogant that he punish Prometheus just because Prometheus disobeyed him by giving the humans the gift of fire. And you want to compare Prometheus to Zeus is like comparing a puppy to a wolf. Prometheus loved both Adonis and Hades. He only cheated with Adonis. Compare it to Zeus again for fucking every woman he sees. Zeus was the most powerful but not the best god in greek

[@youmode562]

@@jaieantoniano1122 why is it so difficult to explain these things to u guys. Persephone cheats on hades every year for some months with Adonis . Every fucking year even after his death thanks to the permission she (and Aphrodite) was granted by Zeus. Hades cheated only twice because there aren’t many myths about him. He was viewed as a narcissistic short tempered god of death. The greeks didn’t love him that much. That’s why there are not many myths about him. Zeus punished Prometheus because he disobeyed his order and because he challenged him by doing so. Zeus knew that the humans were not ready for the fire. That myth show that the fire brought knowledge,wars and deaths in Greece. Even if it was a gift from Prometheus...it still brought ruin to humanity from a certain point of view. Zeus is the god of justice. He didn’t participate in the war of Troy. He didn’t choose sides because it would have brought only chaos in Olympus (at first he sided like the other gods but then he decided not to and prohibited the other gods to do so too... because the other gods were being too invasive in a war between humans)and He also sided with ares when his daughter was raped by Poseidon’s son and ares killed him because of that. Poseidon went to Zeus to ask justice for his son but Zeus (even though he didn’t like ares) sided with ares. Zeus is more than an horny narcissist god as he is depicted in many fan fictions.

[@jaieantoniano1122]

@@youmode562 Like I said Persephone loved both Adonis and Hades. Yes Hades cheated only twice, it's not because there aren't many myths of him what kind of bullshit statement is that? Hades was not viewed as a narcissistic and short tempered god, Hades was feared by the greeks because he was the God of Death. The only anger he has was that not many greeks prayed and worship him even though he was the God of wealth and riches(not just the ruler of underworld and the God of death). There weren't even much myths about him getting angry. Prometheus only helped humankind, he did not challenged Zeus. Zeus arrogance thought Prometheus challenge him because he did not followed his order. Zeus did not give human fire because he saw fire brought war, Zeus didn't give human fire because he feared that Man will be equal standing with the gods. Zeus believed that fire was one of the elements that allowed humans to stand in reverence of the gods. His belief was that as long as human remained in "darkness" (fire = light), they would be submissive to the gods' will. He believed that giving man fire would cause the gods to have lost some of their "lustre" in the eyes of man. In some respects, he was right, for once Prometheus gave fire to man, he also told them how to trick Zeus using fire and animal sacrifice. For his part, Zeus did not take too kindly to be ridiculed and punished both man and Prometheus in a very swift and brutal manner. Only reason Zeus did not participate is because he was afraid of his wife, Hera. He was rooting for the trojans even though knowing they will lose. He agrees to let Troy fall so he does not face an uprising on Mount Olympus. The majority of the gods and goddesses detest the Trojans, so Zeus knows the Achaeans must win. The only good thing he did was sided with Ares for defending his daughters honor. The daughter who was raped by Poseidon's son, kinda ironic for Zeus when he raped countless woman. The good things his done was very little compared to the bad shit his done. No matter how you say it Zeus was narcissistic and a horny greek god. You can't deny that after countless of evidence he left behind in Greece.

[@saurabhsingh6227]

They showed Zeus to be very flawed, but someone who tries to get back up. Hera is the one with anger (which is to be expected for the given circumstances), which shows in how possessive she is over Zeus, it turned her to blind hate. No one's to blame here, its a tragedy, though I think in the last moment he won her over. Well, they both lost their ways, starting with Zeus, but somewhere inside, probably, they loved each other very deeply as well, thus explains her anger, also his sacrifice. The music is phenomenal.

[@azzzanadra]

zeus may have been an unfaithful bastard, but what hera did is like someone from italy murdering your friend so you nuke all of italy in rage. if both were at fault hera was at more fault.

@Nessie Flores he was willing to make an oath to never cheat again, but she demanded his son's head. Someone who murders is a far worse person than someone who cheats.

[@azzzanadra]

@Nessie Flores do not bring the greek mythology into the context of blood of zeus, because that is not what was presented here. you don't respond to someone killing your friend by nuking the city of the murderer, which is what hera did. there is no denying it, she is mad.

[@azzzanadra]

@Nessie Flores shapeshifting into a better version of their husband. you know what also was part of greek mythology? hera leading an uprising against zeus only for him to beat her up and torture her as a warning, while here she is as strong as he is. do not tell me to disassociate the powerful zeus from the myths while also root for hera based on the myths known. even if we follow the common version of zeus, what hera did to olympus in blood of zeus is a lot worse.

[@srwilsonmr5924]

@Nessie Flores Seriously, I understand her going after the women who slept with Zeus even though they know he is married and his real identity. However, she harassed even women who refused Zeus' advances and were forced to sleep with him. I'm not even going to talk about the children who were innocent and yet were cursed by her. There is still the case of hefestus and several others. Another case that I remember was a prophet who was attacked by two snakes and because he killed only the female (as if he cared about it in front of snakes 🙄) Hera turned him into a woman and in the future blinded him due to not having agreed with her. Hera can be as bad as Zeus and she has done other shit in the original mythology. Here they even made her less hateful. I think people just focus on the cheating part and forget everything else 🙄

Okay lemme tell you the significance of this scene. If you payed attention before Hera asked Zeus a question. " Did you ever truly love me " Zeus did not answer the question. Later on Zeus went to check on Heron and his mom and she said, " if you truly loved me you'd take us away from here but you fear Hera more than you love me " I believe this was said because the only reason why Zeus slept with her was because she was around and was in need of saving as Hera is independent and did not really ever need Zeus to begin with. This scene however answers Hera's previous question " did you ever truly love me " and the answer is Yes this all came back full circle.

[@lesscrement1448]

Actually when she asks him if he ever loved him he answers "of course". Then she asks him if he ever loved Heron's mom and he doesn't answer to that question, and that's when she really gets pissed and decides to start a war lol.

I actually really like this analysis and it makes sense to me. He loved both women in different ways. But what really stands out is that he didn't hesitate in saying, nor deny that he loved Hera. Its definitely the most prominent (especially towards the end of the season). However, out of all his affairs he did fell in love with Electra. It's not just the hedonism he committed, but also loving another woman. And that's the part that really, truly hurt Hera the most. And when people are hurt, they want to hurt others. Zeus committed the ultimate betrayal that really sent his wife over the edge.

[@katelynthom1924]

@Serron Serron everyone has a breaking point. The first season is about exploring anger and power and how it affects dynamics. Imagine being the goddess of marriage/ family that's constantly being betrayed and disrespected by your significant other for centuries. Plus, the gods have extremely heightened emotions and are as flawed as humans. So when a god is very pissed off, very bitter and deeply saddened, they go overboard. Hera was consumed by so much rage and bitterness that she went too far. That is her greatest tragedy. Especially at the end with her "Oh my God, what have I done!?"moment.

Theory: When Zeus first rescued Hera from the tornado giant during the first war, it was the first time he ever blinked at her, and possibly the only time, until this scene. That is why Hera immediately remembers how Zeus rescued her from the giant, and it might've reminded her of the love she once bore for him, only to see him get destroyed seconds later. Which is why she suddenly seems remorseful, and grasps for his crown, as a desperate attempt to attain a memory of him.

I honestly didnt really think of Hera as a villain(or Herons half brother). Its not just Herons mother that Zeus cheated with. There are MANY women. Hince the quotes at the beginning during there argument. "Only because there were others". Also when Zeus brought Heron to Olymus among the chatter of the gods you could hear "This is the 7th one" or "He just cant keep it in his pants can he". Hes been un loyal multiple times, and that rage must have been boiling up overtime. Though I wish she didnt go as far as she did, I see why. Deep rooted anger from being lied to and cheated on built up for centuries can do that. But gotta applaud Zeus for still protecting her till the end. Shows even thoug she did all this he didnt hate her and still cares for her

She loved him THAT much. Guess love and hate are two sides of the same coin, and when you love someone this bad and they cheat on you, the hatred that comes next is catastrophic.

Through the centuries, Zeus always loved Hera. She was his Lady, his base, his anchor. All the others were intermissions. According to the Mythology he is our father. The "father" aka ancestor of mortal Greeks, and immortal gods. To do that he had to have many relationships but only the relationship with Hera is eternal.

[@filipgasic2642]

That still doesn't make it right

[@eleniasimop]

@@filipgasic2642 it's an ancient mythology/religion shaped many thousands of years ago. Don't try to explain it or understand it by today's standards and morals.

Honestly the entire time I was hoping they wouldn't kill Hermes and Apollo. I was fine with Zeus or Hera dying.

[@alexandrak6648]

Hi I'm Greek, I know we all be simping for Apollo so imma say this, Apollo(Απόλλων) in our mythology books is described EXACTLY like how he looks in that anime, even with that golden aura too. Doesn't surprise me that the creators are Greek cause of this. He was my crush since I was a little girl, I started screaming when I saw him for the first time cause of how accurate they made him look. I'm still shook

[@jthegreat3627]

I loved the wink gave her a reminder of their youth and why she fell so madly in love with him in the first place. I love being that archetype of man, can't be controlled, won't settle down but the ride is unforgettable

[@noire9601]

Yeah cuz he's at fault!

[@jasonhudson4966]

The blood not being ichor was a throw off.

[@benjikwon7938]

I thought Greek gods could not literally die. That’s why the gods themselves had to seal up the Titans in the first place. Cronos, just like the gods themselves could not be killed.

[@Noyola417]

The way Rick Riordan explains it is the gods can lose their corporal, sentient form. The way Kronos chopped up his father into so many pieces made it near impossible for him to come back. Same for here. Maybe this form got incinerated as Zeus blew himself up and will now be unable to return, essentially dead.

[@tenjenk]

@@Noyola417 Hera was trying to use the soul gauntlet on zeus' armor piece, which lit up in response. So theres some indication of this

The whole scene...the flashbacks and everything...brilliant! Brilliant! Couldn't have been better. I applaud the creators! I didn't want to cry that much for a few measly seconds but okay. I thank you. Haha

[@lonelystranger7114]

Just read about the creators talking about the future of the series. Zeus isn't gone. Infact, the creators say the main characters of the second season would be the trio of Zeus, Hades and Poseidon. Blood of Zeus, from a different perspective.

[@jodalar13425]

[@unrepentantjaegerist7236]

Are you sure the next season isn't set in the past? OMG I'm gonna cry if Zeus is still alive😭

[@timinatr99]

Where’s your source claim?

[@r2153]

When Blood of Zeus is better than most Disney superhero movies/tv series or Star Wars movies/tv series......we got a problem. In Blood of Zeus: the action was intense and had meaning, the villains were there to F people up..... true threats, the soundtrack/music was epic, the animation and voice acting was pretty much better than anything Disney and the story was solid and very well done. There is tons more this animation does better than anything Disney but that's it for now.

[@MoltenUprisingMK]

Zeus died to save both his wife and his son. I can't help but admire that.

First spoiler Kratos comes and killed everyone.🤣

[@MrImastinker]

Eh, since some of the gods here are actually decent, caring deities, I don't think he'd kill EVERYONE. Let's face it, as Mimir put it, in God of War "the pantheon had it coming."

[@Too2Cold]

I just got done watching this show. The music was intense each scene, idk why I love mythology shows and movies but this tv show alone omg the animation, the story, and the way it grasp your attention so quickly. Idk why 8 fucking episodes, should of been more. Zeus the way he sacrificed his self for Hera was very intense I was not expecting that I thought he was going to redo what he done not to the extreme of giving his own life away. Man and the way heron used his power as Zeus epic.
