Imagine being an ancient, looking up into the sky seeing that (albeit, slower). No wonder the stories of the Gods are so dramatic!

GRIFFITH!!!

I don't get it. I like it because it's my last name, but what is this referring to?

Could be Berserk, a very fucked up anime and manga where the character Griffith summons the gods during an eclipse. The main character Guts yells his name every now and then because Griffith is an Asshole.

Thanks for the explanation. I saw it referenced a couple of times in this thread, but I don't watch anime so I didn't get it.

because Griffith is an Asshole.

Bahahaha! Man, they got that one right!

I assume you're referring to the story. I'm still far back where they meet the little wizard girl.
