[@malahamavet]

Yeah! Also, portraying him as Satan and having fire and stuff in the underworld makes it boring to me because that's Satan. They are two very distinct characters and portraying Hades as he really is is not just the right thing to do, is also way cooler and more interesting, he has his own flavour.

[@rishabhbhatnagar9632]

Well according to me he is one of the best if not the best god in greek. For reasons like:- 1. Equal to zues and posyden in power. 2. Has 1 wife and hardly any record of cheating + half the yr remains with her mother. 3. Richest god. 4. Determined in his job. 5. Dont deal with men. 6.

@The Gray Ghost there was a cartoon show that treated him with respect. I had to do with mythological heroes descendents in modern times

[@LittleMissRequiem]

hungry joker That was *Mythic Warriors: Guardians of the Legend*, right? EDIT: Actually, come to think of it, it might have been Class of the Titans (not to be confused with the film of a similar name). But both shows did portray Hades as a more reasonable sort (aside from his voice in Class of the Titans sounding somewhat goofier than usual), so it counts either way.

[@LittleMissRequiem]

The Gray Ghost As much as the Death In Chains episode annoyed me somewhat*, I have to agree with you that at least they more or less got Hades right. *Mainly because the original myth of Sisyphus on which the episode was based had either Thanatos or Hades (depending on the version) as the one captured, whereas there was no Celesta in Greek mythology that I can recall (and even if she did exist, she wouldn’t have been Hades’ sister, as Hades’ only sisters were Hestia, Demeter, and Hera) and as far as I can tell she was only added into the episode to make the damsel in distress female. But I digress.

[@LittleMissRequiem]

The Gray Ghost I understand , though I still agree with you there. TBH I’m pretty neutral toward the series itself (but that’s a topic for another day) but at least Hades was portrayed much more reasonably like you mentioned.

@@pharaohbubbles1547 Only by Zeus' command because both gods were aware that Persephone's mother Demeter was one of the biggest smothers to ever exist, to the point that Persephone existed as an accessory to her and Demeter literally made every decision for Persephone, who never had been able to do her own thing. Naturally Zeus thought kidnapping was the best thing to do and ordered Hades to do it Unlike Zeus or literally any of the other Olympians, Hades actually won over Persephone just by spending time with her and getting to know her without trying anything funny.

Hades has really been warped in our modern world. The Greeks seemed to look at him as a harsh but fair ruler. They also called him the Hospitable One because he always accepted new souls. Also in all of the stories involving him there is at least a version where he is fair. Like allowing Heracles to borrow Cerberus if he can earn the privilege by subduing him without harming the beast. He allows Orpheus to take his wife so long as he proves his honesty by not looking back. Hades gives you what you deserve in reward and punishment. The harshness being that he punishes without sympathy because you deserve it.

In general, later versions (e.g. the Orphic versions of Dionysus-Zagreus) said that Zeus was their father, whereas older versions (mostly from fragmented works) said that Hades was their father. Confusing matters even further is the fact that Hades was sometimes literally called the “Deep/Lower Zeus” or the “Zeus of the Underworld”, so even versions that seemingly named Zeus as the father could’ve actually been referring to Hades.

Petite Petite Ditto. TBH it makes more sense for Hades to be the father, considering that all three kids have very close connections to the underworld: *Macaria* was the goddess of blessed death, *Melinoë* was the goddess of ghosts, in addition to nightmares and insanity, and *Zagreus* was the god of rebirth, and in some versions hunting as well. In fact, Zagreus and Hades are sometimes described as being one and the same.

Could you please do a video on the Unhcegila from Lakota native american mythology please

[@ROGER2445]

Cerebrus comes from the work kerebros means "spotted", the Greek god of underworld named his dog "Spot"... He was just, and always believe that even if people make temples for him, they still won't escape the judgement and thus, people don't do anything which doesn't benefit them so they don't revere him, and portray him as cruel

[@the_Ozz]

In the Persephone myth, Zeus actually gave her to Hades as a bride because she was technically the child Zeus had with Demeter. So technically, he didnt kidnap her, but was more an arranged marriage without her mother's knowledge. And unlike the other gods, Hades actually treated his wife as an equal, giving her half of his kingdom. In some myths, she is even referred to as "Dreaded Persephone"

[@omniavanitas7893]

He literally grabbed her as she was picking flowers and dragged her in the underworld crying and screaming for help. In what world is that not considered kidnapping? Even the ancient Greeks, for whom arranged marriages were the norm, considered it kidnapping. As for Persephone being powerful and feared? Well duh, historically speaking she is way older and more important than Hades, and not because he was nice and decided to share power with her.

[@LittleMissRequiem]

єчєвrσwѕ σn flєєk Any sources? I’ve always heard that Macaria was Persephone’s daughter, and from what I can gather there was never any mention of Minthe having any children at all, let alone by Hades.

[@starrmathias9507]

Persephone is the daughter of Demeter goddess of Harvest and Soil fertility and wife of Zeus brother of Hades

[@LittleMissRequiem]

Starr Mathias The question was on who was the mother of Macaria, not Persephone. The comment prior to mine said Macaria was Minthe’s child, but I don’t recall seeing any sources or other evidence to support such a claim. Also, Zeus’ wife was Hera, not Demeter or Persephone.

I don't like how Hades is portrayed as a bad guy but really he's just misunderstood and actually a Saint compared to basically another god like eros/cupid , poseidon/neptune and deities like Kronos or cronus I honestly don't know anymore

[@bacon88r]

there's a good chunk wrong with this, but two things really stick out. First, Hades has a BIDENT, not a fork. Second, Cerberus doesn't really "guard" the underworld, his job is mostly keeping souls IN, and rarely has to worry about keeping people OUT. Charon does a pretty good job of keeping out those who don't belong.

In movies now they always picture him as a bad God even though he was just doing his Job and he was very fair. He was also the only one among the his brothers who was faithful to his wife.

[@shradhapatnaik3197]

My favorite is Hades based off the fact on how he treated Persephone alone. He is a Saint compared to Zeus and poseidon..

Maturing is realising Hades isn't actually evil

[@khylerbane4523]

“They call me evil. Villain. The Devil. But the joke is on them. For I don’t care what they call me. I don’t care what they think of me. I have a duty to fulfill, and such petty things can not detract me from responsibilities. All Gods have a duty to the world for we are bound to it and it’s people. But only *I* take it seriously. Only *I* don’t treat the world like my playground and the mortals as my playthings. I am firstborn of Kronos and eldest of the Olympians. Cheated out of my birthright by my own family, my own siblings! Yet I got the most important job of all, dispite no one knowing it. For in the hands of any of the lesser mature Gods I call my family, the dead would flood the world of the living. So let them spew their lies. Let them believe their falsehoods. It makes no difference nor matters not to me. After all…” *sly smirk* “All become my subjects eventually.” -Hades on Pop culture’s view of him.
