Jorge’s playing GAMES with our emotions in The Wisdom saga | Love in Paradise & God Games Reaction

Calypso unknowingly triggered Odysseus ptsd with all her words: - "Ody", get away from the ledge (Eurylochus: Ody, we're never gonna get to make it home) - "I'll stay inside your heart" (Ody's mom in the underworld: I'll stay in your heart) - Stay in my "open arms" (Quite obvious our dear Polites 😢)

[@breannacarlisle5441]

Odysseus was already experiencing ptsd she just unintentionally made it worse when she was trying to talk him off the ledge

[@Sylviathemoth]

Oh no she absolutely purposefully said those words cause Ody talks in his sleep remember in 7 years she had to have learned a bit about his past

[@tvanbus1759]

​@Sylviathemoth Fun theory but that's not confirmed. Epic is making Calypso a much more sympathetic character, so it's important to leave prior knowledge at the door with this musical

[@breannacarlisle5441]

@Sylviathemoth I said that because Ody said " All I hear is screams" before Calypso said anything to him. He was actively in a ptsd episode and Calypso made it worse while trying to misguidedly comfort him and talk him off the ledge and then we get insight into what those screams are that Odysseus is hearing .

[@itzwizory9556]

​@@breannacarlisle5441so supposedly, should this theory be true, Calypso thought that parroting those Odysseus loved would bring him comfort. But instead, the loved ones in question are the ones he was mourning, and mentioning their lines only rubbed salt in the wound At least she didn't start calling him Captain over and over

[@SeerOfTime577]

"First of all, there's no love here. Second of all, it's not paradise." PREACH. I've been loving your reactions! And don't worry about pausing; that's what reaction videos are for! ❤

[@BoobeamTrap]

I think a lot of people miss the point that the game was "Convince them OR me" -- The task was supposed to be impossible so that Athena would be forced to beg Zeus to save Ody. He wanted it to be on his terms. By convincing the others, she completed the impossible task and Zeus doesn't get to be the big hero man. That's why he "feels shame".

[@DJOrbitDecker]

Oooh also Athena's last line to convince Hera was "Never once has he cheated on his wife" in direct reference to Zeus' umm... flings, which probably doesn't sit terribly well with him

[@gabrielmehl5966]

Little fun fact about Heaphestus: He is voiced by Mr. Jalapeños Dad

[@HunterKillvo2]

Just an FYI, the “Waiting” is not Penelope but his Mother during the underworld saga. Fun fact about his mom, before the storm bag was opened, she could see Odysseus’ ships in the distance and watched the storm send them away. She figured her son had died from the storm and “walked into the water” to be with her son. Also, he calls out for Athena as she is the only friend he has left who isn’t dead.

[@navimcfarland9113]

BRO I dint even notice! I was busy vibing 😅

[@AutobotOrso91296]

Thr initial reason Aphrodite doesn’t want Odysseus to be free is because she holds a HIGH standard for the relationship between a son and their mother (one of Aphrodite's most devoted followers was a son of hers and he had a very close bond with her). Since Odysseus never made it home before hia mother died, she holds contempt for him purely out of spite.

[@freddieadams8435]

Yeah, she's apart of the gift trio along with Hermes and Ares. Who regularly give their children gifts because they can.

[@MatthewCYN15]

I'd like to think it's also cause during the Trojan War, Aphrodite, along with Ares, Apollo, and Zeus, are all on the Trojan side opposite Odysseus.

[@AquaticDot]

Add on top of that that Aphrodite was on Troy's side during the war (and arguably is the direct cause of the war itself), so she already wasn't particularly fond of Odysseus.

[@MewDenise]

I also see the Gods as being kind unable to relate to deep human emotions. 7 years is hell for Ody, but probably a walk in the park for Calypso. Also how Athena had a hard time understanding why Ody was upset about his friend dying

[@malinnilsen5188]

Okay but also the way he says "..Goddess?". He sounds so tired

[@nudgificator]

You can feel him thinking 'oh not another one!'

[@MakiaLink]

"Zeus' anger at Athena's victory in their game likely stemmed from her using a personal insult to win. She brought up his infidelity to Hera as a means to "make him feel shame," a tactic that undoubtedly provoked his ire. Zeus condemned Athena for daring to question his judgment in "you dare to defy me?", arguing that her insistence on Odysseus's immediate return was a blatant challenge to his divine authority.

[@elenjulia8271]

okay thats hella depressing

[@ioanzatui]

Odysseus called for Athena because she's his only friend that isn't dead, and she might be able to make Calypso give him back. 😢 17:50 As the audience, we DID listen to Odysseus but the gods have not, they each go off of the things they've seen/heard about the situation. Apollo noticed the songs of the sirens being silenced, Hephaestus heard about how Odysseus gave up his own crew willingly (to Scylla and Zeus), Aphrodite felt his mother's heart shatter because she's the goddess of love not just romantic love, Ares sees how he failed to do war the way he would've (because Odysseus is a warrior of the mind and fought like it) and so calls him a coward. Hera wants Athena to give it a shot, because of all the tragic heros that Greece has why does *Odysseus* deserve her attention at all? She's the Queen.

[@ultima1594]

Calypso is probably the most interesting character in EPIC to me because unlike the other villains, she is doing any of this out of malice. She wants Ody to be happy, she just physically cannot fathom why he wouldn’t want to be with her. She thinks she loves him but actually views Ody more as a pet

[@tsutomumybeloved7411]

@@kittycatzuka That thing Ares said was probably more for worry about his SISTER, since Athena and Ares are siblings, two sides of the same coin, both gods/goddesses of war (Ares being more blunt strength and Athena more for strategy), they still do love eachother, so Ares was probably being GENUINE with that. :(

[@hazelhavoc]

**WARNING - FOR TALKING ABOUT SA** I'm glad you reacted the way you did about the song. Since while I listened to it, even if I enjoyed it, it made me so uncomfortable and angry with what I know about the original myth. The thing about Calypso, people compare her to either Percy Jackson's book or like some versions of the poem/story have come out later. I get why they changed her for Percy Jackson, since you can't have a child on an island for weeks at a time with a literal r*pist. So they made it more sympathetic and less fucked up and horrible. But in the actual myth, Calypso has Odysseus around for 7 years (like EPIC) and r*pes him for said seven years since he can't resist her, since she's a goddess. And he cries himself to sleep every night because of it. It's not like she's under a spell to fall in love with him like people say. She was imprisoned there because she sided with the Titan's. Now, I don't know if EPIC will go into these topics but I think Calypso shouldn't be made a sympathetic character like Circe was. Circe had a reason to do what she did (even if it's still fucking horrible), and she stopped when Odysseus rejected her advances since she saw how much he loved his wife. It's not like I want Odysseus to go through what he did - but I think it's important to acknowledge what happened since male SA isn't talked about enough in media and usually it's even made fun of. It's not like I want an explicit song about it either. Jay can imply it, or something, or just have a line about how the island wasn't paradise but hell for him for what she did to him. But I do think she should be depicted accurately at least somewhat. Even if it'd make me uncomfortable and fucking pissed off, I think some things should make people angry or uncomfortable to learn, grow, or become a better person. It shows your human. I think its important that we talk about it, bring light to it, and acknowledge what happened! I do think with the lyrics of Love In Paradise, where she just keeps forcing herself onto him is a form of sexual harassment, and she implies taking him to bed even if he says he's not interested. And she said that the island is trapped under **her spell** so that means that this is to Calypso's spell, meaning she knows what she's doing and isn't under some love spell like people say. Talking to him like he's a pet - "bow down" and "you're adorable". Like, taunting him and flaunting her power over him since she knows he can't do anything to stop her. How she keeps trying to reel him back from jumping. She just makes me so fuckin' uncomfortable and I just want to throttle her. (I have NOT HEARD any of the clips or whatever for future songs of EPIC so please don't spoil that for me. Also, Jay could have changed the story more since they are demo songs, so never assume Calypso or any character won't be changed from the original myth.) Anyways, this is a long ass message and people probably won't read it. I just love Odysseus a lot and want him to be happy and away from that horrible goddess.

9:46 to be fair to her, I doubt that she would have KNOWN about this phrase an its importance to Ody. It plays up into her very dangerous mindset of trying to be nurturing and caring via confinement. Shes a god, alone on an island that can't be known. She is as naive as a child with the powers of a god at her disposal. Like she said she *means* no harm but she cannot see what her actions actually are doing.

it's so funny how much Jorge is having Polites haunt the narrative. Love In Paradise is callbacks: the song and i love it

[@OdysPupper]

Wanna know something even sadder? During that part where everyone starts singing to him (Eury, Pol, and his mom), Polites' voice sounds faded and hard to read compared to the others, showing Ody's starting to forget how Polites sounded. :(

[@Phasmania]

I adore how light (ha) and floaty Apollo’s voice is, unfair how we only get three sung lines from him. Reminds me of Orpheus from Hadestown a little

[@jackofastora8962]

I believe in the original myth calypso does assault Odysseus multiple times across the seven years when he refuses her advances, but in epic I recall reading that jorge made it clear that in this version she only keeps him captive Also// my personal theory is that Zeus told hera to not agree to release Odysseus no matter what, hence why he goes “you dare to defy me? Make me feel shame?” Since he added the “or me” condition in the beginning I’m complete convinced that he was going to release ody anyway, but wanted Athena to beg him to do so. The line up of gods to convince is just so strangely stacked in ody’s favor right up until hera

[@patrickmiller7399]

💯 don't listen to folks saying you should pause less, like a lot of folks already said it's a react channel. If they wanna hear the songs only go listen to the songs. Additionally, I can't WAIT till some of the animators come out and you see them!

[@vic-c2x]

Your reaction to Calypso is 100% like mine. How dare she? He said no, and I have no compassion for her. To her it's a paradise but Odys paradise is called Ithaca. Where his son and wife are. And when she called him Ody I really wanted one of Zeus lightning. And then she pulled the open arms. You little... Even Polites would reconsider that with her. What baffles me more is that people are still defending her. She harassed Ody for years, imprisoned him and ignored his opinions that's no love. That's lunacy. But I guess people would rather call him a cheater(refering to the book) then admit that a woman can do such a thing. Also, I don't know why I expected Zeus to admit defeat. He never does anything to help if it doesn't benefit him. And I agree with you Telemachus must be protected. Ares learned the hard way not to touch him (although his voice was amazing).

[@drucelia2247]

I like to think Calypso's magic works similarly to the sirens where they pull from the targets memories in order to entice them. However since Odysseus probably suffered some ear damage from Zues' thunder/lightening in Thunderbringer Calypso can only get some information from his memories (the open arms line, being called Ody, the waiting, etc.) but doesn't know the context of those lines so the ear damage is causing her magic to not just work but pulling information from people who he cares about but have lost so its creating the opposite affect, just like how the sirens could pull some information but some incorrect information but can still create some amount of illusion due to the beeswax

[@ohood1788]

​@@Bluecookies165 Yeah but tbh I find it weird that people jump to this specific conclusion though, since that's just not the vibe of the song. If the intention was to imply that, I think the lyrics would've specified it, Epic doesn't really shy away from that subject matter considering how direct Antinous’s lyrics are. There's also a cut song that stated their activities as "walks and late night talks." Not to mention Ody's line being "I won't be drawn to love in paradise" rather than something like "I won't be forced into love in paradise." It's pretty clear that she's trying to convince him to have an actual relationship with her rather than forcing a physical one onto him. I think there's more evidence of her not doing that than the other way around but I won't get into the lyrics of future songs in case you haven't heard them and don't want spoilers. Calypso is still wrong for imprisoning Ody of course but I think it's unfortunate that people don't try to understand the character, dismissing her as an irredeemable villain because of a label she didn't exactly "earn." She's one of the more interesting characters in the musical imo.

In not justifying Calypso actions. But she was cursed to be trapped on an island for eternity and never be loved just because her dad was Atlas.

[@KENONICAL]

Which version is that contained? I’d like to know more about this :)

[@tektyrant]

@@KENONICAL A lot of them. I was recently (like 5 minutes ago) told that the “never be loved” part is only in Percy Jackson. Like a lot of Greek stories it probably isn’t one concise narrative. But I recommend reading stories related to the Titanomachy, where the Olympians and the Titans go to war, leading to Zeus ending his father and taking the throne of Olympus

[@AnonEMouse-ls7fp]

​@@KENONICAL I was hoping someone would mention this. Disclaimer: I am in no way defending what Calypso does to Odysseus. Her impact trumps her intent wholly and there is no doubt that she is an antagonist here. Also, I haven't seen/read anything Percy Jackson. All of my lore is from Greek mythology, of which I'm not an expert. All that said - Calypso can't help gloamimg onto Odysseus despite his love for Penelope because Zeus (or the Fates depending on the myth) cursed her for being Atlas's daughter and supporting her dad during the Titanomachy. The Olympians won and the Titans (and their supporters) we punished. Her punishment was to be stuck on that island for all time. Every thousand years or so, the Olympians send a hero to her island for her to tend and befriend. Calypso's curse is to fall in love with every hero that shows up, but none of them ever stay, which means another thousand years of heartbreak and loneliness until the next one.

I think that Zeus was more angry because Athena indirectly compared him with Odysseus, in that comment that Odysseus never cheated on his wife, while Zeus is known for his unfaithfulness to Hera in Greek Mythology, and plus he was sure that Hera wouldn't care about Odysseus, but he didn't count that Athena would call him out indirectly to get a vote from Hera.

It should be noted - in the original Odyssey, Calypso is a bit more... dubious? She's either a Goddess or a Nymph in a particularly weird situation. Not to mention she's one of the two women he slept with in different interpretations. Whats notable there is that with Circe it's... dubious how much he actually wanted that? Meanwhile the text is actually quite clear with Calypso: She forced herself upon him. Repeatedly. For years. Btw as a nonhuman she has essentially unlimited stamina. The text makes references to how he spent most evenings on the shore, weeping for his wife and child.

Her answers to Hephaestus, Aphrodite, and Ares didn't actually address their concerns at all in retrospect. They just let her win. Also all your problems with how Zeus acts here is due to him being a Narcicist. It doesn't matter that it's his daughter. It only matters that he lost and felt shame.

[@Bex5900]

[@kessler2356]

random comment for engagement, gl! No need to apologize for length or stopping to talk. Basically that's why we are here xD Yes there are (as of yesterday at least) animatics/visuals on Jorge's channel, yes we'd love for you to watch them (1 viewer's opinion: I prefer when people react to them, they add ALOT of context which helps in general, still love music only tho

[@alexeysimushov4971]

Question who do you hate more Zeus or Antinous (the suitor who bullied Telemachus)

[@notamotorcycle12]

Yes

[@TheofficialStarGirl]

Yes.

[@UndyBlack]

SEEING UR REACTIONS TO ZEUS IS SO GREAT JDNSJFKS LIKE SAME HERE ...

[@biblicallyaccuratesoul]

Kinda funny that you go of course with Zeus but myth Zeus was one of the gods helping out and only punished him in the first place because god of justice and Helios threatened him. And in general played fair. Also didn't particularly like the Heph excuse since he kinda betrayed them first. Fun fact though Heph and Athena got shipped together in ancient greece, to the point Heph had a temple in Athens despite not being normally worshipped, and a different version of the aphrodite myth they got married. though the normal version of that is he tried to bring the thunder on her.

[@Foxner]

The animatics were on the streams he did on YT. They will be taken down sometime soon too (I think 10 days from when they were streamed)

[@juanmarcuscaberoy5378]

Can you react to the livestream the whole thing feels like a movie cause the whole this is basically animated

[@connie-michelleharris]

To be fair to Aphrodite, she's not just the goddess of romantic love, she's the goddess of all love, including familial love; and she is a mother herself, no excuse since Odysseus' mother clewrly holds no spite in the afterlife, but it makes sense someone as spiteful as Aphrodite would find some excuse to buttheads with Athena, one of the Virgin Goddesses Zeus' response to Athena winning his challenge makes more sense in the animatics, particularly Neal Illusrator's. It isn't so much Athena claiming her prize that ticked him off, its that the Gods he summoned all backing her up as if to push him into doing so. Doesn't help that he had deliberately chosen gods he hoped wouldn't be convinced so easily; Apollo is a God of Music and just as much a playboy as his old man, so he hoped he'd be more incensed for the Sirens; Hephaestys has trust issues due to his being chucked off Olympis by either Zeus or Hera, and then Aphrodite constantly cheating with Aries; and Aphrodite and Aries have contant beef with Athena, and Hera is notorious for not liking any of her stepchildren, so Zeus thought he had set Athena up for failure and it backfired gigantically

[@Luke-g9o]

The "Spare us" line is in Different Beast btw

[@DerekSmith-fv7mb]

It's rather old at this point, but have you seen mircsy's animatic of my goodbye? Also, you need to watch the livestream animatics for the wisdom saga.
