I was waiting for Iemanjá to appear, she is part of the Afro-Brazilian pantheon and is an orixá of the sea, fertility and motherhood

[phinguyenthi]

I think
Lady Buddha Quan Âm also deserves to be on this list!! In Vietnam, she is considered the goddess of the sea, supporting seafarers.
Although the origin of this goddess is from Indian Buddhism, in Vietnam we have variations and myths to suit Vietnamese folk beliefs!!

correction, in indonesia(javanese) nyi rara kidul isn’t goddes of southern seas, she more like a right hand of goddes, the real goddes of southern seas is called ratu kidul/queen of southern(indian ocean)

Let me explain a bit more about hinduism...
• Indra deva- he is a god of rain,
• Varuna deva- he is god of sky and water
• Samudra deva- he is a king of oceans and
• Ganga devi- she is a goddess of rivers and personification of river ganga
• and there are many goddesses who resemble the different water bodies.

I'd love to see something like "angelical/celestial creatures across mythologies"

[hanikazuha]

Oh my God, as an Indonesian I least expected Nyi Roro Kidul would make it on the list

[andresospi]

Awesome video, please do Ice/winter gods video! ❄❄

[MauricioTafernaberri]

I went into the video expecting to see Yemanjá, a Divinity from African Yoruba mythology in the video (it became La sirene). In the video you put it very quickly and it was white, which became popular in Brazil.

Would be neat to see a list of odd gods/goddesses that don’t really fit into any categories. Like there is a Japanese goddess of the bathroom. Could be interesting to see!

[akhripasta]

Varuna holded the position of Indra(King of Devas), that's why he is associated with swarga.

Can you do all gods of love and beauty?
