new year's countdown day 5: golden knight from five star stories

[j-psilas]

Western transfems need to look beyond Warhammer 40k for their sweeping mythic space fantasy epics.

Mamoru Nagano's The Five Star Stories is right there—and not only does it have a compelling narrative structure, gorgeous art, and enough lore to fill several bibles, but it also has something that Warhammer will never have.

In FSS, the divine emperor Amaterasu is a twiggy bigender twink who moonlights as a mecha designer and engineer.

He created this entire false identity just so he could have an outlet for his natural inclination to be a faggy little goofball.

The God-Emperor of Mankind simply cannot compare.

I noticed there's a trend of 80's anime/manga sun god characters, who all are very mysterious, cunning, powerful and deceptive. They all come from notable royal families, are admired and well liked widely by others because they're attractive and outwardly appear friendly, but secretly on the inside, lies a darker, detached and even malicious side to them, that is hinted at throughout their respective stories. This allows them to hide their secrets about who they really are, their dark pasts and intentions in the future. They're all pretty villanous at times with Apollo being a clear cut antagonist, but Kendappa and Amaterasu are generally seen as the protagonists, but have their moments where they can be classfied as antagonists in the story. The reason why I counted Kendappa, is because in tsubasa resevoir chronicles, she is a sun goddess, in the form of Amaterasu and because her personality and role in the plot bears similarities.
