There is a frequently recurring trend of killing god in JPRGs and other Japanese fantasy media which isn't really replicated in the west, I'm sure there's got to be some sort of cultural reason for this that would probably make a great video essay topic

@BrodieOnLinux I know the reason actually, the simple answer is that it's a difference in traditional folklore, Christian narratives of kingdoms and holy warriors ordained by God still dominate our stories, we have very little traditional or spiritual connection to the land as the majority of its history is indigenous, not American. Bridging the divide between American spirituality and it's connection to the land is a central theme of my long-term project.

@BrodieOnLinuxThere is already one on YouTube. Long story short, it's how they often do politics.

It seems like most of the developed world is well below population replacement, and Japan isn’t even the worst.Abe-san was taken before his message could be heard!

@BrodieOnLinux it's probably because weatern media doesn't tend to escalate the plot to such ridiculous levels tho

@BrodieOnLinux Probably the best example of this (and a great JRPG from the 90s) was Xenogears for the PS1.
