    -Black King tries to save humanity by uniting all races.
    -Humans are racist as fuck and oppress everyone else
    -"Fuck humans, we'll make a world without them"

    Black King - The Origin Story.

    You can argue a similar thing for Jesus, where he becomes sorely disappointed with humanity for the countless reasons that exist.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Uhhuh. That's exactly what happened to Jesus in the bible as well. He tried his best, and for all those efforts he was executed as a criminal in a rather slow manner. We would have a weird religion if that turned him into a merciless genocider.

    Well, it didn't turn him into anything because of the whole being dead thing. It could have turned him into a merciless genocider and we wouldn't know because he's not on Earth anymore.

    It's what the religion is based on, not historical facts. I suppose a dude named Jesus really did live and do something, eventually got executed, but after that it was all the work of his followers generation after generation. You can hardly read a religious books and look for facts, yet it's still the foundation of the religion, so within that context it's also Christ's personality. For all we know the real historical figure might really have wanted to butcher every single Roman and collaborator in that part of the world, as well as every Jew that didn't follow their own code and laws, but bible would hardly mention that. So, in short, relevance wise what we have is the religious figure. The real historial person doesn't exist.

    Sure, but you could say the exact same thing about, say, Joan of Arc.

    They can't really be compared. Joan of Arc fought bloodily as a soldier against an enemy nation, defending her own, got captured, and burned as a witch. Sent to that other world, she would have nothing to fight for and only a huge grudge. Jesus always opposed fighting and his role was to save people.
