I loved how you really did your homework on this one! Didn't know how Dionysus had such a complex history :D

I love the way you drew him in his various forms! My favorite of all your little chino characters so far!

Ain't no party like a party god party, because a party god party usually ends with at least one person being torn to ribbons.

Huh... My theory senses are tingling... A Greek god with horns... associated with death and the underworld for reasons sometimes forgotten... who reportedly drives people to have sex, excess, and murder at possibly inappropriate times... getting ripped off by Rome (naturally)... And they eventually transitioned to a monotheistic culture with an opposed entity from an underworld sort of place with horns that drove people to have sex, excess, and murder at inappropriate times... So what, there wasn’t a commandment saying “Thou shalt not plagiarize”?

Waltz No 2 is a nice touch.

I love your content, and cannot wait for more. I would love a video focusing on the relationship between Hades and Persephone (even though you lightly touched on them, it would be nice to get a better idea of how these two were, especially since Hades has always gotten the crap end of the stick in most forms of media). I also hope for more Norse myths, since a lot of that is extremely fascinating.

I minored in Classical Studies and I didn't know most of that about the evolution of Dionysus' mythology.

This video was so well-researched -- I keep showing it off to every classics student/grad in my department and they're IN LOVE!

Heyyy, about that throwaway line, "making Bacchae its own video"... I'd watch that. I'd literally pay money to watch that. In fact, I've just pledged to your Patreon now to put my money where my mouth is. So yeah, please consider this a request for more in-depth look at the Bacchae, because mad gods are almost as awesome as Greek tragedy. Thanks.
