Also jake said that sacrifices would make gods smell nice Hades would probably get sacrifices from everyone who is in their right mind, seeing how he is the one god you're guaranteed to end up with. I would definitely want Hades' favor.
@@zockingtroller7788 hades actually didn't get that many sacrifices because death is inevitable and if he decided youre going to tartarus then you're going to tartarus
I think Hades wouldn't have a particular smell, because he's dealing with the souls and not the bodies of the dead, unless in Greek mythology souls smell bad
I'm pretty sure the only thing that even comes close to answering this is pythagoras claiming that the souls of the dead are found in beans so I'd imagine hades smelling like warm beans
I actually think Hades would smell quite pleasant and that's because ancient Greeks used an assortment of good smelling stuff in their funeral rites (rosemary, myrtle and mint) and there is even a myth about Hades having the personification of the plant mint, Minthe as a mistress. So that's why I think Hades would have a smell associated with these herbs
Yes, she stole and gave them away to Europa.She was eventually pardoned, but it took awhile, the ritual that cleansed her of her sins and curses was performed in the Acheron river, in the underworld.
She's queen of the gods- she has to keep up appearances and historically queens like Elizabeth I and Cleopatra were famous for their beauty/ hygeine routines.
Drawing on the primary source Hercules - The Legendary Journeys, I always saw Hera as sort of a nasty mother-in-law or a meddling Auntie, smells like budget brand soap and mothballs. C-tier at best.
This is the most important information to debate and decide upon. Thank you, Jake, for answering this question. you have very clear and important priorities. I now know what different gods smell like thanks to your factual examination and ranking.
I feel like he would smell like grape juices and fruit flowers, but he would also just have a lingering smell of body. Just every body fluid ever. Like, really lightly
@@icantthinkofaname8139 Nah, Aphrodite seems like the type of woman to have perfume on her and sometimes put on too much perfume, she also seems like the type who's favorite store is Victoria's secret. Demeter probably smells the worst out of the goddesses, because I am allergic to pollen and stuff but bread smells nice, but I'd hate being around her because I'd be sneezing amd my nose would ve super runny and if I were given like two boxes of tissues that aren't open I'd finish them in like five hours.
I would expect Erebus to smell the best out of the Gods that aren't present here. He would just smell like a cold autumn night. Although a lot of 1st gen Gods probably smell great. Sky daddy for example. Or Eros. Or even primordial Chaos, smelling like everything and nothing at the same time.
Chaos would smell like...nothing. Chaos would be the purest smell of being somewhere for so long that scent is no longer registering in your brain. Eros would be sweat, packed of hormones
My personal headcanon for Hestia is that she would smell like nostalgia, if that makes sense Like she would smell like something you used to love when you were younger, that bring you back to those good moments that made you happy
I have always thought as Athena being a war goddess as the strategic side of war, and Aries being the blood lust death and destruction side. Also, oh my god I need pan’s shirt.
Would love to see one on Norse mythology, on this video though wouldn’t Prometheus smell really bad because of all the blood from his liver being dated, he heals but there would still be some blood on him right?
Would Vanir smell better than Aesir? Not being racist, the Vanir spent a lot of time in Vanaheim(which is a wild place), but the Aesir fight a lot. Thor would probably smell like mead. Hel would smell like dead people pretty much.
@@the11382 You can't argue with the fact that Hel's face is literally halfway rotten. Freya would probably smell the best, together with perhaps Sif. Then you get a guy like Odin, who probably just smells normal, and then comes Thor (there shouldn't even be a discussion about how Thor smells). And then you get Loki, in S tier, because he would be the kind of motherf*cker to have cologne on himself at all times.
Love the tier list! If you make any more, ranking heros / demigods / mortals would be sweet (yes, I am reading Song of Achilles and yes, Patroclus does deserve more praise)
I'm not big on tier lists myself *BUT* I know animating is HARD and this helps keep your channel active and keeps viewers engaged so I will certainly try to watch. My fave thing is still your takes on the classic myths though 👌
If all the tier lists are this high-quality, then I'm in favour of you doing more. However, variety is essential. Obviously we love the fully animated vids and never want those to stop, but if you're going to do some easier videos like this one (I presume this is less work than full animation) to please the one true god - the RU-vid Algorithm - then I would highly recommend having more easy vids than just tier lists. Maybe book reviews, maybe meme reviews, those BTS vids on your research process are good, maybe review mythology related movies or episodes of shows like Xena. Tier list are fun, just make sure to keep the variety, because you are extremely creative and it's easy to neglect the high-effort stuff you love when you can technically make an easy video instead that's still pretty good.
I think Hades would smell good, actually. He looks like the kind of guy who would smell like strong cologne or something, despite having a lot to do with the dead (which by the way, are just souls, not dead bodies). Maybe because I see him as some kind of businessman, and usually businessman look like they smell good... I don't know.
@@ANDPEGGY-1 It's her own fault for deciding to get with her parthenogenetic son, Uranus. Besides, she didn't have to worry about raising Erectheus as Athena took it upon herself to do that.
I've watched others of your videos, Jake, and really enjoy them. I just ran across this one, and it's delightfully silly! Thanks! (I'd disagree about Hades smelling like dead people, though. He doesn't deal with decaying bodies, he deals with shades, which I don't think have a smell. However, he might have an earthy smell himself.
can i request a tier list?? who would be the best at board games?? for example with chess, Ares would just flip the table and leave. or trash the place when he lost or couldnt go whatever. thanks anyways!!
I do like these tier lists and I would like to know which greek god would be the best babysitter or nanny? Eitherwise I love your content and your animations are charming, educative and funny.
