Sure, Hades and Persephone cheated on each other. But it was only done with one person. Compared to other Greek couples and how they cheat on each other all the time. It's basically like Hades and Persephone never cheated on each at all. True romance, i say.
Aros makes all the gods assault or kidnap women. Pretty sure they made him up to justify there actions. Aros is the god of chaos and screwing things up
Something about the second story ending doesn't really makes sense.
How would Hades not know that his wife would go back to the surface to meet his mother in the summer? Wasn't he the one that decided she was allowed to meet his mother half the year?
Thiiiis is a pretty cherry picked version of this story. It makes Hades seem so much worse than most of the more accepted versions tell it. Also. Eros and Cupid don't manipulate feelings of Love and Lust. They ARE the feelings of Love and Lust. It's why it's said by some that they are the strongest Gods on Olympus as almost no one, especially the head God, was immune to their powers. And, even the ones that are have to make an active effort to keep them away. Edit: Oh. Also, Kore/Persephone is not the goddess of Spring. Spring is just the time in which Persephone returns to Demeter, who makes things grow again. You could argue that makes her a tangential goddess, but no. Persephone is the Goddess of the Underworld.
People need to stop romanticing the stockholm syndrome. Since when falling for the one that kidnaps you is romantic. Face it. Persephone never loved Hades. She was kidnapped and was always trying to find excuses to avoid Hades. If you don't believe me read De proserpina Raptu.
I've read many Greek and Roman versions of the Persephone myth, but none have said that Hades locked Persephone in a room or prison. Instead, the myths speak of how Hades kept Persephone underworld in order to marry her, to which Hades had obtained consent from Zeus, Persephone's father.
In the original version, translated from old greek and written circa 600 bc has Zeus as responsible of allowing the arranged marriage, as opposed to kidnapping. And from what I remember, Dread Persephone was treated above all others, even Hades himself.
Wow. This minthe isn't that different from Her lore Olympus counterpart. Though unlike this version of Minthe, she displayed more of a toxic relationship with hades in lore Olympus and much like this version of her, she was turned into a plant but this was before Persephone became queen
Best Greek Love Story better than Twilight hands down
It serves Minty right from bragging that she's most beautiful entity in the Underworld.
I love how Hades’s “mother in law” is also his sister. Wait, that means he just married his niece😳
Ancient tales are so cool!!
So the Greek gods were nothing more than petty children with powers and immortality. Gotcha 😂

Loyalty was not really an Olympian thing
This story should be an 26 episode anime. Why is this not an anime.
Sweet home Olympus
Hades: I can't believe she cheated on me (crying)
Ares: I understand. He took my lover too
Love the artwork for these videos. Do you have a book with these myths and drawings available?

👏👏 That was totally awesome story Hades and Persephone! Quite impressive! Always love, hope and live on planet Earth.
half of greek mythology: aphrodite and eros felt quirky
What about Despina, the godess of Winter?
Cool!

Hades and Persephone are perhaps my favorite couple so far.
1:06 real talk: so what you’re telling me is, those radioactive ghosts are what Hades has to preside over?
Well this is how rival lovers evolved

Hades seems pretty cool 😎 w his wife having affair 😊

2:10 nope god of death is Thanatos. Hades is god of underworld.
