How can zeus die

Netflix's Blood of Zeus is not the average anime, with a focus on ancient Greek myth rather than super strong school children , a guy with a notebook that kills people, or something else a little more bizarre. The shorter but visually stunning series left a great impression on me, and I'm really hoping Netflix decides to pick up the series for Season 2. If it doesn't, I may never get answers to some of the questions about Blood of Zeus I had during my binge through Season 1.

Should this anime return for another season or more, here are some of the questions I hope the series will answer after this first set of episodes. Hades only appears right at the end of Blood of Zeus , though it's possible he had some role in Season 1 from the shadows.

He seems ready to make some sort of move, as he offered Seraphim a ticket out of hell if he swore to serve him.

The move enraged Seraphim considering he had only just escaped Hera's grasp, but when the other option is eternal suffering beyond your wildest imagination, you take whatever out you can get. My assumption is Seraphim will act as an enforcer for Hades' plans, and that whatever Hades is planning isn't good. Perhaps the biggest shock of Blood Of Zeus was the apparent deaths of two of the show's most powerful gods: Hera and Zeus.

The two fell trying to take on one of the Titans, who was only defeated when the two combined their abilities for a massive explosion.

Again though, these two are the cream of the crop in regards to the Greek pantheon, so I refuse to believe they are simply dead and gone forever.

Zeus already had one fake-out death in Season 1; I don't think it's crazy he'd have another. Heron's ability to fight amongst the gods was well-demonstrated by the end of Blood of Zeus Season 1, but it wasn't entirely clear what his powers were.

He appeared to have some measure of strength and durability to survive the enhanced strength of demons, and we briefly saw him channel some electricity like his father Zeus. Heron had only just begun to channel his abilities, so I wonder if his ceiling is much higher than it may seem.

I mean, his half-brothers are Apollo, Ares, and Hermes, who looked far more powerful in comparison. I wouldn't be surprised if he's just as strong, though as Zeus said, being the child of a god doesn't immediately grant someone powers. The most widely known example is probably the God of War series. The protagonist Kratos main motivation is to kill Zeus. It ends with the King of Olympus dying. Unlike the Norse Ragnarok, there is no myth depicting the death of any of the Greek gods.

Zeus overthrew his father Cronos, like Cronos overthrew Uranus before him but the cycle ended there. With no basis in lore, why has this borderline cliche plot point become so prevalent? Zeus was the god of the sky who reigned above everything thing else. In the ancient world justice came from the word of the one in power. No one had more power than Zeus thus he was the god of justice, order, and rulership. The Greek Gods were supposed to be human with all the flaws and virtues entailed therein.

The King of Olympus was far from a paragon of virtue. He raped numerous woman, cheated on his wife left and right, abandoned his children, smote his enemies, and did whatever was necessary to ensure his rule endured.

His actions were only justified because these were actions a ruler might carry out. No one could hold him responsible for his dalliances, and indiscretions, because no one was powerful enough. This is a very old world view of rulership.
