I can sorta kinda see why McArthur, but why Joan of Arc?

    I like how the legendary generals have rabbit ears for no discernable reason

    I get MacArthur, but why Joan of Arc of all people?

    She liberated the mainland from an invasion of bigoted rapist islanders? Plus there's the whole visions of god thing.

    Korea? Are we talking about MacArthur or Joan here? Because my history knowledge is bad, but I didn't realise it was that bad.

    Japan has invaded Korea several times, it's a practically a historical obsession.

    Obviously Joan didn't have anything to do with that, but I can see why the overall narrative would resonate with a cult looking for a deity.
