Has Nasu ever said why he chose 27 to be the number of Dead Apostle Ancestors?

Has it ever been hinted that 27 might have any significance?

It's Nasu. There IS no significance. In during PRETENTIOUS.

Because ORT is going to violate them 27 times when the day comes.

Vampires were pretty bored so they made shit up. Half of the Apostle positions may or may not be vacant, some are held by people who aren't even real vampires (ORT. Also Wallachia, Nero and that gun/sword dude are extremely unusual for vampires. )

Well, ORT and Crimson Moon Brunestud are the same "category" of creatures, so if Crimson Moon counts, ORT might as well.

Primate Murder, however, just drinks blood as a mimic of a vampire.

The worst thing that we don't even have official art for half of them.

Half of them don't exist.

We don't have art for even a half of that half.

I love it when Nasu conceptualizes awesome shit and NEVER EVER FOLLOWS THROUGH ON IT. It's like he hates money with all the products he can milk out his concepts.

>The Dead Apostle of the Millennium Lock. A magician who became a vampire through his research, and an old friend of Zelretch. He created a labyrinth to protect his Holy Scripture, Triten, but became trapped inside and hasn't been seen for over a century. He supposedly looks like a padlock.

Fucking imbecile.

Anyone got some art of the Dante rip off?

Remember that fan story of him and Shiki teaming up to guard Arcueid while she slept to recover from the damage Shiki did or whatever?

It's just a two-page spread. Imagine Lancer with a gun and a sword with thorny vines.

Enhance is also stupid. His main concept is that he damages himself each time he uses his weapons but wouldn't his problem be solved if he simply switched the arms with which he wields the said weapons?

Nah, he's just too busy playing Demon's Souls on PS3. Think Berserk.
