enkidu, a character from the epic of gilgamesh commonly considered by critics to be “the first sasuke”,
now feels like a good time to mention ive never watched naruto or read the epic of gilgamesh
I’m gonna make the case that Gilgamesh is actually the first Seto Kaiba (rich, powerful, good-hearted but loses track of it quickly, absolutely loses his mind when he doesn’t see enough of his rival) , and Enkidu is the first Yugi (simple-hearted, created under magical circumstances, an outsider to the world the story centers on, connected to ancient Gods). Also, tell me that you can’t hear “I’m two thirds God and one third man, Yugi” in Seto Kaiba’s voice
I feel like Seito Kaiba would enjoy this comparison
the nearest depiction of an animal or other sentient fantasy creature to you at this moment comes to life right where it is (i.e. cat photograph, shark plushie, dragon painting, etc)
assume it doesn’t know you (unless it’s actually a specific animal you’ve met) and that it’s normal for its species and would do whatever was natural for it. including being too giant for and destroying the room it’s in. as well as dying immediately if its environment can’t support its life
