Again, Strong Valkyrie and Powerful Spriggan aren't good examples, its Dangerous Belial, it kinda rolls off the tongue. That's what TT wants, Strong Valkyrie and Powerful Spriggan don't really work but Dangerous Belial actually does work really well, as a Beyblade Burst Fanfiction Writer I understand this, I mean I've made a Bey named Perlious Belial which sounds better than Dangerous in my opinion but Dangerous still rolls off the tongue so it works. Again this is my opinion and I'm not trying to change it but I'm just explaining why Dangerous could be a good name to certain people
The problem isnt “rolling off” the tongue at all. Something can still sound good but they dont have a very fitting connotation behind it — but sounding good is only one facet of the ordeal. What people are saying above is not talking about “what rolls off the tongue. The purpose of marketing entertainment is to not only come off as catchy, but also elusive and unique-sounding. A unique word is more likely to catch others’ interest
The Blacknight isnt saying the word “dangerous” sounds bad on the tongue. Theyre saying that the word just doesnt fit the connotation for Belial. Thats the huge difference. I agree, “dangerous” is a nice word but youre misunderstanding Blacknight’s statement
The reason some people dislike “Dangerous Belial” is because “dangerous” is an unbelievably common word. So common, its not treated as serious in most cases and makes Belial a lot less intimidating. Somewhat like making a “Strong Valkyrie,” as noted above. There are plenty of other words that you can use, many of which can retain Belial’s intimidating name. This is what the English language calls “diction”: Using the right version of the word to invoke a mood you want people to feel. As a fanfiction writer, I think you should know that by now
As such, Im not a fan of “Dangerous Belial” but it is livable
