Yet even more changes for my Ginga AU (I suggest not reading below if you’re not interested in hearing me rant about Ginga Densetsu Noah for the hundredth time)



Ignoring how terrible GDN is as a manga I decided to take Noah, break the character down to his essentials, and then rebuild him into a new OC.

ORIGINALLY I imagined him as Hyena’s SON and not just Hyena renamed, but now I decided to make him Bat’s son instead (seeing as how Hyena and Bat are both the same breed aka Weimeramers). He inherited his father’s “Mind’s Eye” from the GDW anime ability which is why much like canon Noah in GDN he has a bunch of weird psychic/future vision powers. And also because thematically the name Noah has nothing to do with a character who’s a seer I’ve decided to name him Izaiah, an actual Biblical prophet.

And yes, Hyena also remains dead in this AU. Not because I have anything against Hyena as a character obviously, I liked him just fine in GNG but I fucking hate the retcon/rewrite in GDN that he survived and became some magical guru hippie Gary Stu who’s Sirius’ butt-buddy (because of course everything has to boil down to the great and glorious Sirius 🙄) Literally the point of Hyena’s death was to add weight to his redemption arc that he was willing to die alongside Ben as an act of honor so I’m keeping that.
