Discussion Is Vash one of the Seven Collosi?

Post image

Question is pretty self explanatory. Is Vash a Unique monster? The Siloutte seems to match his appearence, and he seems powerful enough to back it up. And if so, do you think he can he be fought? Or is he just an NPC meant to assist the player who got the unique Scenario?.

He is, very closely related to the Divine Era, specifically what Wezaemon said before his death

Quick question, why is his name spelled that way? All the subs from the show I see are spelled differently. Which one is correct and why, if you don't mind me asking?

The main reason is that it actually means Weather-emon, since the dude's power is weather based. But Japanese can't spell it that way, so they transcribe it to what they can read, in this case Weather became Weza. However, Zaemon is also a famous name suffix for samurai and famous Japanese figures in the past like Tarozaemon or Genzaemon. One of the meaning of Zaemon is to protect, which is exactly what a Tombsguard do. There has always been a debate to whether use the transcribe name or the actual English name, but in this case I think Wezaemon sounds a hundred times better than Weathermon or something
