#Elixir of immortality ending series#
The Genesis of the elixir should have been first in the main plane of the series and like everything in this life, this had a price to pay, merging with a resistant and contagious concept in exchange for being an immortal being seems a fair deal, until you realize that you have just released a curse that would end the lives of people who think of this same concept In ZLS there are two worlds (about this? I'll talk about it in the future, it's interesting), the human world mentioned by Jofuku and an "astral" world. I will call the physical elixir "Genesis" since in Greek it is used to describe a birth, creation, origin of something. Perhaps that is why he mentions the human world as something alien to him. Perhaps at first this elixir was something that was found in the physical world (a plant or a potion) but Jofuku did something that made the elixir work 100% and merged with the concept of Saga itself, therefore, while that concept will continue to exist, he will live on.įrom my point of view I think that we have only seen Jofuku in his physical form and that in reality what we see in the anime and manga is his physical manifestation influenced by the concept of Saga and that in reality he is dead and in his real form she is a soul, but whose conceptual power is powerful enough that he can physically manifest himself like a Sagako that are physical manifestations of the curse and change his appearance involuntarily. Once an idea has taken over the brain, it is almost impossible to eradicate.Ī fully formed, fully understood idea that adheres In one of the first scenes of the film, Dominick Cobb mentions something about the ideas that I will quote verbatim:īacterium? Virus? an intestinal tapeworm?
Now, this point is difficult to explain due to its more "philosophical" charge, but I will try to make it easy to understand. This idea and theory came to mind while watching Nolan's movie: Inception. What is a concept? According to Wikipedia they are captures of reality (realism) or, on the contrary, mental constructions or self-projections (constructivism or idealism), which arise through the abstraction of intelligible essences or by integration into classes or categories, which group our new knowledge and our new experiences with the knowledge and experiences stored in memory.
