Those pics amuse me.

 

Spoiler: Odin is the goodest of boys

 

I am greatly impressed.

Given that the goats and deer survived, I wonder what Odin ate.

 

Given the area, and that there was a wildfire, there was probably more than a few cottontail bunnies that view Odin as the specter of death.

 

Humans!

 

K-pop is hardly as important as people think it is. If you want moral degeneracy just go on social media, that's where the real source of the problem lurks, k-pop is just a parasite, feeding on the despair and making itself bigger and more prevalent but it does little to contribute to the situation as a whole.

This is the strangest thing that I've ever seen: Japan trying to make a historical account of the American Revolution from their cultural perspective (or, at least, during Meji Japan). Although, please note at the 15-minute mark that there is something quite unusual in terms of historical significance. If you know your Japanese Mon, then you'll know why I'm pointing this out. If you don't know the significance, then the basic outline is that George Washington was shown to have the Tokugawa Mon... a significant honor and basically says 'this person is adopted/a great friend to the clan'.

 

For those who do not know, mind pointing out the significance of this?

 

I've put the significance as transparent, so all you have to do is highlight it to see it. It's a sort of 'inline spoiler' trick. Since you've asked so politely:

Spoiler: Significant Detail

Japan puts immense significance to their Mon -which is the equivalent of a coat of arms or heraldry in western society- and the families that they represent. In the preview image and at 15 minutes into the video, George Washington is shown to have the Tokugawa Mon on his person.

(the Mon of the Tokugawa clan, for reference)
​

This, in the context of Japanese culture, has immense significance. If someone not of the clan gets the mon, either they are adopted into the clan (oddly enough, Japanese adoption practices is quite similar to Roman adoption practices at times) or (from what I've read more commonly) they are considered a friend of the clan and thus are given a great honor. The Tokugawa -and Japan in general- were so impressed by George Washington that they gave him the honor as a friend of the Tokugawa.
