So awhile ago I decided to start teaching myself Japanese by poking at the untranslated stuff for MLR. It's been a slow process and oft times tedious, but fun. When the new series came out I switched gears and am poking at it for at least a change in story.
That being said I've finally placed who the New Guys are in Nordic Myth.
Heniru - Hoenir (trad. brother to Odin and God of Silence) Guess we'll see what route Kinoshita-sensei goes with this.
Magni - son of Thor and a giantess (trad. he will survive Ragnorak and inherit Mjolnir with his brother)
Modi - son of Thor and a giantess, brother to Magni. (trad. he will survive Ragnorak and inherit Mjolnir with his brother.)
Varu - Var goddess of marriage oaths. This is where I might be wrong/confused...or there's crazy manga shenanigans afoot. Var is the goddess of oaths (particually the marriage kind) I couldn't find a LOT of info on her. That being said, she's still a she and not a he. Seems to be a boy in the manga? But I haven't completely verified via text yet.
Vidaru - Vidar : Son of Odin and the giantess Grid who will avenge Odin's death after Ragnarok. Again with that whole "change of sex" motif. Since, in MLR Vidar is a girl.
That's what I got. Now, off to the mysty mobile and work!
