Diabolik Lovers Analysis
Story:
Diabolik Lovers, More Blood, what is there to say about it.I guess a good place to start is the beginning. Diabolic Lovers spelled with a "K" for some reason, was about something called a sacrificial bride as you all might of been already aware. Now this season is about Christian symbolism with Eve and Adam for ones unaware of the story of Eve and Adam you will be very confused since everything about the story completely relies on you being a Christian.If you aren't well....f*** I guess you'll forever be completely lost in the great abyss since you are never told what the story was. Anyway, let's start talking about the consistent references to Adam and Eve, or maybe I should just start with the story. You know what let me explain the

First of all, let's talk about the opening.The first eleven seconds sounds almost too much like Princess Resurrection's first eleven seconds with the only big differences being present is with the slower and deeper tone of the music.Not that I'm framing of Diabolik Lovers, More Blood of copyright infringement. I just found the similarities interesting, when I first heard the opening and it reminded me a lot of the opening in Princess Resurrection. As for the osts they are actually pretty appropriate this time around. When each character's osts match their personalities.For Yuma(the bad boy stereotype I was talking about) has this very classical action movie type osts that seem to fit his personality quite well. Ruki has an ost paying homage to soft tango (The Reiji rip-off). Kou has disco music mixed in with modern day remix(To show his two-faced personality). Azusa's is a mixture of electronica and classical music(the one who enjoys his own misery), etc. Maybe I got the styles of music wrong since I suck when it comes to basic music knowledge, but you can search up "Diabolik Lovers More Blood OST - ____ (Extended)". To find some really cool homages to different kinds of music.It's really neat and different, you should defiantly look it up if you have the time.(Credit to TBC btw) As for the designs, the characters still look way too much like visual novel designs.With the weird shading and off-putting lighting that doesn't seem to fit the eerie background designs at all.Which has dark shading and amazing details in the background. Overall, the sound is great, but the designs are a bit more

    The main components of this book are God’s design for marriage (Gen.1:26-28), intimacy in marriage (Genesis 2:18, 25-26), and building on the foundation great commitment (Gen 2:17-17 and Genesis 3:11) to God’s principles governing marriage. Hawkins explains that problem as a satanic wedge. Marriage was God’s idea for the man and wife to grow as helpmates (companions fitted for each other) however, Satan had a plan to drive a wedge between the man and his wife, and humankind and his creator (Hawkins 1991, 14-15).…

    First BSO played a piece from 18th century that describe fear and death and then the orchestra played a piece that shares same topic from 21st century. It was really fun to compare those two pieces to think about how people from old era thought about death and how we think about death. My reception to repertoire was interesting. Actually I could not really understood the first piece. I understood the meaning behind it when I read a description later. However, I understood the concept right away when I heard the second piece. I believe that it is because of the harmony the composer used in the second piece is more modern and more often used in music from horror movies. I believe that if people from 18th century listened to this performance, their reaction would exactly opposite of mine. Because they were used to hearing such harmony in the first piece and such harmony is what described death at that…

    “Why are you so angry? Why is your face downcast? If you do what is right, will you not be accepted?” so flows verse 7, genesis 4. In John Steinbecks novel, East of Eden several allusions are made to the biblical story of Cain and Abel, the most significant of which revolves around the idea of “timshel:” which is embodied within this quotation. Repeated through the two generations the novel spans are three examples of this, patterned first by Charles and his brother Adam, then through Adam and his troubled wife Cathy, and finally through the aforementioned couples offspring Aron and the controversial character Caleb (Cal). The vicious cycle of Cain against Abel, Brother against Brother, in the Trask family destroys these generations and yet a glimmer of hope remains through the idea of “Timshel”.…

    Hieronymus Bosch, a Nertherlandish painter is known for his fantastic visual interpretations of hell, death sin and folly. Little is known about Bosch except that he spent his life in the provincial town of s 'Hertogenbosch and that he died an old man in 1516. His work, full of weird and seemingly irrational imagery has proved so difficult to interpret that much of it despite the remarkable insights contributed by recent research, remains unsolved. This study project will explore some of his more obvious symbolisms and relations to sin as portrayed in the bible.…

Chris is a hard working husband who works as a construction worker for Cartwright inc. the same company his wife works for. Chris and Andrea were right out of college when they married. As time goes on, you can see that neither Chris nor Andrea lived their life for the lord, both allowed themselves to become too busy to go to church.

During the four years of their marriage she was getting large bonuses for carrying on an affair with Mr. Cartwright.

    Dante’s representations of women and feminine sexuality in the Inferno show contrasts within the various natures of women and their sexuality. His era’s vision of the perfect woman one that idealized beauty, passiveness and purity is represented by his life long love Beatrice. This ideal and its representation in Beatrice are contrasted with the dark depictions of women, their sexual sins, devious devices, and evil act, which Dante encounters in hell. This paper will argue that the severity of condemnation in hell for women’s sexual sins is related to the increasing degrees of deceit.…

    There is a certain pain that is felt whenever a loved one passes. Beyond sadness, it is hurt, it is anger, it is confusion, and an almost unidentifiable emptiness where the lungs should be. People who have not experienced such loss have a happy, if hazy, view of the world. Then, there are those who lose someone… a major someone... so very special. They do eventually move on, but the pain alters them forever. Ed Sheeran, in the song “Afire Love,” illustrates how the loss of an individual can impact everyone around them, young and old.…

    The Crucifixion Analysis

    As Christ’s blood exits his body through a wound, this movement of blood visually mimics the act of menstruation and thus positions Christ’s wound as a feminine orifice (Julian of Norwich 473-74). The outpouring of blood continues to the point that Julian believes that if it were a physical substance, it would cover the bed she is laying in, which thus illustrates the blood’s potential to contaminate upon exiting the body (479-80). However, as Julian assesses this vision, she reads it as an expression of God’s love and the abject nature of Christ’s menstruating body shifts. Julian states that Christ’s blood is as “plentiuous as it is most pretious”, which positively correlates the amount of blood that Christ produces with “the vertue of [God’s]/pretious love” (485, 87). In addition to its correlation with God’s love, Julian applies the outpouring of blood to the Harrowing of Hell. Instead of Christ’s soul descending into Hell to give salvation to trapped souls, it is Christ’s blood that descends: “[t]he pretious / plenty of His dereworthy blode descendith downe into Helle and braste her bands / and deliveryd al that were there which longyd to the curte of Hevyn” (488-90). Subsequently, the blood ascends from Hell, washes over the entire earth to rid “al / creaturs of synne”, and then ascends into Heaven, from where it flows “evermore” (491-92, 495). Through this vision, the Medieval association of menstrual blood with waste and excrement is reversed as Julian presents the outpouring of Christ’s blood from his wound, which represents the menstruating body, as procreative, non-excremental, and, in the case of Christ’s body,…

    Women in Genesis

    Interpretation is everything when it comes to identifying a text. Readings of one verse "may vary, when in fact they regularly do much more - at times they clearly oppose or contradict each other." 1 Within the book of Genesis we encounter opposition and contradiction in every verse depending on a variety of factors. "...Religious or theological persuasions, or one 's place in history, society and culture" 2 can sway or change an interpretation of text. This being said, the popular and widely accepted interpretations are the ones affecting women and our population in general. The Bible is widely distributed and acknowledged, Genesis is known throughout the world and its social order. Even more so, the creation story is famous, it is mentioned in films, books, school and much more. The interpretation of this story is still additionally accepted, everyone knows the story of the apple and Eve. The impact this one story has on the institution of patriarchy, Phyllis Bird has a good representation : "A hierarchy of order is introduced into the relationship of the primal pair. Mutuality is replaced by rule. Patriarchy is inaugurated. . . . The rule of man over the woman, as announced in Genesis 3:16, is the Bible 's first statement of hierarchy within the species." 3 The potential for this verse to be used for oppressive should not be underestimated. Eve and Lilith, the women of Genesis are sexualized, sin ridden and seen as antagonists within the creation story. Let us see how the interpretation of this take has created societal norms for gender roles.…

    She reasons that temptation is good in that it proves hers as well as Adam’s strength and loyalty to God. Adam protests but eventually agrees making him appear as blameless as one can be, which the book focuses on in that Adam is described as resisting each and every action leading up to the fall. Eve, who represents all women resists but is portrayed more or less as the promiscuous or risky one in that she desires solitude, feeling that she must prove something. She fails and then her devises a plan in which she makes Adam do as she has done to prevent her from being the only punished. She fears she will be punished severely and that Adam will simply receive another “Eve” thus this motivates her to tempt Adam to sin as well. Even after Adam has sinned the author defends Adam stating that he only did so out of sheer devotion and love towards Eve. Book 9 basically blames Eve who represents all women as the cause of sin. Towards the end of the book this theme that Eve is the cause of sin becomes evident as Adam suggests that had Eve stayed home/with him this would’ve never happened. Another interesting aspect this poem details is the idea of marriage in that Adam and Eve are stronger together. They could’ve and would’ve resisted temptation had they been together. In fact this was their strategy for resisting sin, being together increased or even prevented them from falling away from God. Thus this foreshadows the functional purpose of marriage in that it keeps us spiritually and…
