Hmm, I thought the sword was a family heirloom. His father told him not to touch it.
Regarding your questions, since most people tend to focus on the exciting parts and action-oriented areas in their reading, and at times speed-read or glimpse over the other parts, I guess nobody is confident enough to answer your questions accurately. Moreover, those areas that you asked about are complex in nature and I doubt few could gain a complete understanding in their first reading. I, for one, as I'm reading the story again, at a slower pace, learn new things which I've missed before because during the first time I read it, I completely don't get anything, but now with some prior knowledge on the future events, it becomes clearer. This is also partially due to the sometimes long sentences when one has to really pay attention to the particles used, and many a times have to infer the topic and subjects which are missing from those sentences. And this is a common problem for non-native Japanese speakers. |

sorry,i also have the same prob.,sinse i read and online transl.(made in eng. who isn't my native tongue)i know many thing but miss/don't underst. other;i knew for instence the sword is a family heirloom his father prohibited to use but in vol.5 of dai d.prologue a certain priest appered,forced him to kill his mother and thousand(?) other people; so like shion that's his motivation to start a war invade other country-or so it seemed to me.but i didn't understood evthg,part because it's hard to stay focused(as you really need to be when you read an online transl)when it's a gaastark pov(another tragic past,what's wrong with having a happy childhood?).

Hell I might as well give this a try.
Source is from various spoilers in the 2nd part (concerning the basis of the world and everything). Spoiler for Massive Spoilers:
Feel free to rectify me if any of this is wrong. There! You spoiler hungry people have something to think about in the mean time =). I'll try to update other stuff when I have time. |

The Mad Hero isn't bad... he's just... mad.
The Goddesses... I wouldn't call them evil. They are just what they are. But, all the same, I've had a hard time trying to understand them. Something I keep on thinking is that Ryner ending up with the Lonely Demon within him wasn't just Lura's doing. Ryner and the Lonely Demon are terribly similar in many regards. Sure, Ryner keeps on clinging to his humanity, even more so when he told the Lonely One he loved all people. But, no matter what, their similarity is just astounding. Sometimes I think Ryner was meant to end up with the Lonely One within him.

...and from what you said, perhaps the purpose of the existence of the Lonely One was to become one with Ryner. Spoiler for question:

i would agree that it seems to have gotten alot more confusing than it needed to be. After these last few spoilers its like the story is in a whirl wind with all this crap flying around. I'd have to see it animated or in manga form to even begin to make sense of all of it.

Just my opinion. Concerning the Lonely One/Lonely Demon raison d'etre, I like your idea, zodanhko. |

This is why you're supposed to to have finished Denyuuden before reading Dai Denyuuden, otherwise all this info will seem plainly ridiculous. Anyway, one thing that is certain is that Voice is very moe.
