Aqua the goddess. She's the goddess of
Water or former Goddess I should say. We
first met Aqua in that limbo like
heaven area in episode 1 of KonoSuba.
Aqua herself comes in at 5 feet 2
inches or 158 centimeters. Aqua's exact
age is unknown but we'll come back to this.
While Aqua was in that limbo area she was
very much a divine being. Aqua was the
Goddess in charge of seeing people who
died in Japan. Whether she was there
because she actually cared is unclear.
She did however need to meet a monthly
quota. More on this later. I mentioned
that Aqua's real age is never given
although she did claims she's not much
older than Kazuma. The reason for this
being that in that heavily area time
flows much slower. What this means for
Aqua is she very much ages normally now,
like any other human being! So in other
words they better get on to killing that
Demon King soon otherwise Aqua is gonna
be stuck forever with Kazuma as a
grandma! Take a look at the goofy goddess
Aqua. What immediately stands out? You
might have screamed out the BLUE color!
She's freaking blue all around. Aqua is a
Goddess of Water so the blue eyes, blue
hair and blue outfit match her perfectly.
What do you may not have paid too much
attention to is her hair clip. Take a
look! It's got a blue orb with two
smaller yellow ones to the side. Remind
you of anything? This is actually a water
molecule! Definitely gotta love this
attention to detail! But that's not all.
Occasionally you see Aqua wearing that
pink cloth of hers. You may not have
known but this is actually a very
powerful divine relic. It's some God like
equipment. It not only protects the user
from abnormal statuses like poison, it
also gives a user greater durability.
You've even already seen an example of
this in the anime. Remember that time
that that demon doll exploded on her? The
damage from that was greatly reduced
thanks to this, otherwise without it it
would have been good bye Aqua!. This thing
could potentially sell for hundreds of
gold.
Just throwing that idea out there Kazuma!
In the KonoSuba anime Aqua is voiced
by the very lovely Sora Amamiya. You
definitely know her from these other
anime series. She was Akame from
Akame Ga Kill. Quite a difference
from Aqua! She was also Mia for Monster
Museum. Yeah I could see the parallel
with this one. And she was Elizabeth from
Seven Deadly Sins and Touka from Tokyo
Ghoul. What's interesting is that her
voice actor was heavily criticized in
Japan for having a mediocre voice.
Voicing Aqua turned out to be a blessing
because after KonoSuba she ended up
getting out a ton of praise and she
definitely deserved it!
Aqua the former
goddess. Poor Agua no one actually
believes that she was ever really a
goddess in the first place. The important
people Megumin and Darkness in her
party definitely don't buy it at all! In
fact Megumin actually thinks that Aqua
might have some mental problems
You might even agree with her. The reality is
that Aqua actually has a very easy way
to prove to anyone that she's a Goddess!
Her freaking adventurer card. You get a
glimpse of it a couple of times in the
anime. This card shows some very important
things related to the owner such as:
their name, their age, their gender, and
most importantly their race. Right on top
in the KonoSuba language it spells out
very clearly Goddess Aqua's race. For
someone like Megumin or Kazuma it just
says human for them. Keep in mind by the
way that these adventurer cards cannot be
forged so this whole situation can be
solved so easily if only Aqua wasn't
complete idiot.
Let me go ahead and address a very
important question that I know you've
been wondering about Aqua. Does the girl
wear any pantsu at all? This is a very
hot discussion topic online. It's not
surprising for viewers of the anime. Aqua
is never shown wearing anything down
there. She might even be as smooth as a
Barbie. There was even that time that
Kazuma was trying to use steal on her in
the anime. Although that time Kazuma
didn't end up getting any divine undies
from that. In the light novel Kazuma also
tries to use steal on Aqua like 20
times but even he fails at this too. The
only things he managed to get were a few
party trick items like fans, some seeds, a
few marbles, and a couple of cups. Don't
even think about where Aqua might be
storing these . . . Anyway the important goods
were notably missing. The anime really
just left this up to the imagination of
the viewers. In reality Aqua does were
underwear. She simply made them invisible.
This way no one could ever get a glimpse
at them. It's definitely the best idea ever
since Aqua is a very smart girl. About
Aqua. Just how divine is as Ex-Goddess
really? You find out early on that she
started off with GM level max stats. She
also had enough skill points to learn
all of the Arch Priest skills from the very
beginning. Since this is Aqua she went ahead
and learned all the Party Tricks skills
too. Simply learning all these skills by
itself should be enough for you or
anyone to be super impressed. As an
Ex-Goddessis Aqua does gain access to sacred
enhanced version of some of her regular
skills.
This also includes special divine skills
that are exclusive to her. We've seen two
of them in the anime. The God Blow divine
punch and her God Requiem she used at
the end of season two. Yeah that was the
same move she failed to use versus the
frog too. Pretty embarrassing. This is
not even getting into all the unique
divine water skills that are unique to
her as a Goddess of Water. What's
interesting about Aqua and skill set is
that all her other moves in particular
have gained a water attribute. But why
does this matter? Funny enough their
party of runs into monsters that are
immune to water techniques. Remember
those frogs at the very beginning? Rhat
was why! Want to take a wild guess at
just how popular Aqua is? Ffrom a
popularity poll in Japan and we got the
exact results. You may have already seen
from my Megumin video that Little Miss
Michael Bay took the top spot. Maybe
someone up there just doesn't like Aqua
or possibly is due to her crappy luck
but Aqua didn't even come into the top
three. In the popularity poll Aqua got
fourth place. My God! I could already
imagine Aqua wailing in the background
especially since Eris got second place.
This next one is pretty funny in a way
for Aqua. Remember that very first day?
The day when aqua got dragged into this
fantasy Australia world. Both her and
Kazuma were completely broke. Aqua
eventually ended up begging for money.
The funny part about this is what aqua
was doing behind the scenes to find a
solution. To try to solve their money
problems Aqua was actually sending a
telepathic SOS message to her followers.
Aqua was trying to ask someone in the
Axis church if she could borrow money!
Yeah that's right. Poor Aqua. I can't
really blame her for being super
desperate. Unfortunately for her only the
leader of the Axis church happened to
get the message. Let me tell you some
things about Aqua's crazy loony followers.
We have seen Aqua be pretty jelly of
Eris since she's got more followers. Aqua
has claimed to have millions of
followers but she's just making that up!
The true number is really only a few
thousand. As you've seen however Aqua's
followers are much much more devoted.
These Axis code guys would drive
anyone insane. In fact all monsters
around their city actively avoid the
area. Even the Demon King is said to go
out of his way to evade their cult.
What's interesting is Aqua's connection
to her followers and what this means for
both of the groups. Aqua herself has his
almost unlimited amount of mana reserves.
In reality the reason for this is due to
a small amount of mana being transferred
over to her from her followers. On the
flip side all of the Axis cult
followers actually take another penalty
too.By being a believer all of those guys
take a hit in their intelligence stat.
Ouch. I don't know if this is supposed to
be some hidden commentary on religion
or just of Aqua but this is honestly
pretty amusing. Funny enough Aqua ends up
screwing them over at the end of season
two. You saw how aqua ended up purifying
all their spring water. This in the past
being the main source of income for the
whole city. Turns out without Aqua knowing
she actually gave them a blessing in
disguise.
All of the water that Aqua purified
ended up being enhanced holy water. This
holy water being able to heal wounds or
damage demon monsters. The Axis leader
realized what happened and came up with
the bright idea of selling this holy
water. So awesome! The money problems for
the city solved and thats how the city
ended up living happily ever after.
Finally let me tell you about Aqua's
secret connection to the Demon King.
Spoiler warning although it could be
years before the anime touches on this
if we even get more seasons. Anyway back
at the very beginning you see Aqua
sitting eating her snacks just waiting
for someone to die from Japan. After all
she does have a monthly quota to fill.
This is emphasised by the fact that she
just offers up the deal to Kazuma who is
definitely not hero material. You later
even see that sword master who Aqua
previously revived. Even aqua completely
forgot about him. I mean why wouldn't she!
Aqua has revived a ton of people. But
anyway how does this circle back to the
Demon King? It's actually hinted at that
the Demon King is in fact Japanese. This
means that the entire situation is
completely Aqua's fault! God damn it Aqua!
If you think about it all their problems
could be blamed on Aqua too. Why did
Kazuma get killed by the winter samurai?
Of course because it was created by
someone from Japan that Aqua revived. Why
was that Destroyer created in the first
place? The reason was to defeat the Demon
King, which by the way the light novel
also reveals that the Creator was also
Japanese! God damn it Aqua! So thanks for
