Seriously. It’s Japanese folklore that far predates the third Reich.
1.) Izanami’s full name is “Izanami no mikoto” (she who invites).
- if you do your backwards spelling magic now your little tantrum makes zero sense.
2.) No. It could not have been a differed “word”. The story of Izanami and Izanagi is in regards to the creation of Japan. Izanami is the Japanese goddess of creation and death. This ties very nicely into a Japanese forge which creates weapons.
3.) By sundering the name of a Japanese goddess with the third Reich YOU are doing FAR MORE than Bungie EVER could to offend people.
4.) By making light of an event so tragic that it shaped the direction of humanity YOU are utterly misguided and in a severe need of growing up.

Modifié par Xyolixis : 12/19/2018 4:40:13 PMActually, イザナミ spelled backwards is ミナザイ. Duh. People should know the "English" version of a language with symbols don't equal what it actually is. Also screw their feelings, they wanna pretend everything is bad and have to put normal words and stuff backwards and upside down just to be offended they should swan dive into a quarry.

This is why people hate Millennial's. Like, how dumb do you have to be, to take a NAME from a foreign language, then to intentionally read it backwards, and claim it is racist? That is not how words, meanings, or ANYTHING works. Redrum? It's from a movie, made INTENTIONALLY to strike a thriller experience form the viewer as the movie is a horror thriller, so GTFO if you are gonna attempt at making that connection. My name backwards means stubborn in Turkish. That means absolutely nothing unless you are a dumbass that gets offended by every thing in this world that has no connection to anything, such as the English spelling of a Japanese name read backwards, or the English spelling of my name read backwards in Turkish. These morons vote.

n Japanese mythology, Izanami no mikoto (Japanese: 伊弉冉尊 or 伊邪那美命, meaning "she who invites") is a goddess of both creation and death, as well as the former wife of the god Izanagi-no-mikoto. She is also referred to as Izanami no kami.

Modifié par TattooedOni : 12/20/2018 5:07:49 AMYou realize this is a feedback to Bungie forum and not a complain about other people forum right? Since you decided to show off what google taught you I’ll go ahead and respond to your post. Even though it’s likely she was the inspiration for the forges name when Bungie took the name and removed it from the context of the folklore it becomes a word they named a forge. It may be referential but Destiny isn’t a recreation of folklore with Izanami as a character. 1) Thats not the name of the forge on Destiny. 2) It could have easily been another word or name and fit just as well and be referential. Inari Okami is an obvious one. If they named it Inari forge suddenly there is no controversy. There is no reason to insist it MUST be Izanami. I’m not saying change it now, but clearly they should have changed it then. 3) This is way over dramatic. Almost no one in the West had a clue about Izanami yesterday unless they study Japanese culture and mythology. That’s probably less than a thousand out of 13.5 million players. Now people are making fun of Bungie because they made a dumb choice. 4) They are making fun of Bungie for choosing a word that could be so easily corrupted.

As someone who has studied Japanese culture and history, anyone who tries to make something more out of this is not only insulting, but ignorant. Just read the daily forge bounties. Paying homage to the Japanese history by killing enemies with swords? Hello? Maybe this link will help. Probably not. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Izanami

Stop getting triggered over jokes weeb

Your post is so stupid and pointless I can't determine if you are being sarcastic, or if you take every silly joke seriously.

Modifié par Ghodzilla : 12/20/2018 12:53:44 AMBrilliant response. Thank you for putting this ugly accusation to rest. As someone who has studied and loves Japanese history, art, and culture, I truly enjoyed your post. Well, done, DredgenRaeve. I will add that I lost most of my family in the Holocaust, and I find the casual use of the atrocities of the Na zis highly offensive. If someone wants to get a true understanding of the pain we feel as survivors who lost family to Hitler, I will share this personal story with you. In Israel, there is a museum called Yad Vashem, which is Israel's memorial to the vistims of the Holocaust. In Yad Vashem, there exists the Hall of Names, which commemorates the more than three million Jewish souls who have been identified out of the six million who perished at the hands of Hitler. The is also an online database that allows you to look up a family name, called THE CENTRAL DATABASE OF SHOAH VICTIMS' NAMES It can be found here: https://yvng.yadvashem.org/ Here is my story. Go to the url, enter my last name, which is Bachner, and say a prayer for the almost 300 Bachner's killed by the na zis. The holocaust was real. It killed half of the Jewish people alive on the good earth. It is not a joking matter. The Holocaust must serve as an eternal reminder of what can happen when evil is appeased and ignored. AM YISRAEL CHAI - THE NATION OF ISRAEL LIVES.
