I don't really blog much but after seeing the new images for HEAVENS new song, Its struck me with an idea of what the new drama CD is going to be about and I wanted to share it too
First things first, the two individual images clearly mirrors each other especially if you look on the ground so that's why I edited the two together the way it should have been.
Paradise Lost Beside you - Kira, Nagi, Eiji and Sion
Paradise Lost Fall on you - Eiichi, Van and Yamato
Now as for my theory of what the story for the news songs is about, it's quite long because I did do some research on the story but please do read it
I have a strong feeling that the new songs story is going to follow that of John Milton's 1667 classic Paradise Lost poem. The poem tells the story of Satan and his fall from heavens, as well as the temptation and fall of Adam and Eve and of course the battle between Satan and the Arc angels.
The Paradise Lost beside you group obviously represent the four main Angels in the Story while Paradise Fall on You represent the Devils.
First of all looking at the devil side. I think Eiichi is Satan for obvious reason, one he's holding the forbidden fruit and also he's the leader, Van is Beelzebub Satan's right hand man with perverted thought (sorry van) and Yamato is Mammon who doesn't really give any shit about the war against the heavens and would rather just mine hell for gems and minerals, Yamato's belts kinda reminded me of Miners belts but just slightly excessive lol.
I understand that there are two other devils in the story aside those three Belial and Mulciber and tbh either one of them can be Yamato or Van but Belial is known as the devil of sloth which doesn't really fit Yamato's personality but it might fit his character and Mulciber is know a skilled and productive devil in the story but a poor architech which again might fit the character either one of them is playing
Just like the Devil's side, there's one angel I didn't bother in the mix which is Michael. considering that I don't really see any of the Paradise lost beside you group being Michael who's most often depicted with a sword and shield being the chief that he is, I can only assume he isn't really one of them. Also the other four had a more close encounter with Satan than Michael who led the army against him and if I had to guess who then this is what I think
Kira is Raphael, god's messenger, he narrates the story of the fallen angels and Satan thus the book he carries
Nagi is Uriel, an arc angel that Satan tried to trick and now he rights his wrongs by making the other angels aware of Satan's presence. Uriel is known for being an angel of wisdom and helping people gain new insights thus his role and making everyone know about Satan's presence
Eiji is Abdiel, an arc angel who considered joining Satan but ultimately his devotion to God was stronger so he joined the heavens against the fallen angels.i think eiji fits the role especially if Eiichi is Satan since the reason that he might consider joining him is because they're brothers
Lastly Sion is Gabriel, the arc angel who guarded the garden of Eden, Gabriel is a messenger depicted with a lily to symbolize purity and truth. Honestly sion just fits the part the most to me aside from Eiji lol but sions outfit alone looks like a lily flower if you imagine it really hard and look at him, he pure af
Of course I could be wrong and the story for the new song could be entirely different or the characters could all be mixed up but still I'd like to share my first thoughts on it :)
