hi. first of all I'm Nigerian and second of all yoruba is not our official language It's English yoruba is just a sub language to the western part of Nigeria and yes she is a vessel for a god
and also you didn't pronounce anything right bruh
Blizzard have already confirmed that Numbani (where Orisa and Efi are from) is on the West Coast of Africa, near modern-day Nigeria

The name orisa comes from the dark tower books, it has a couple of references from there
Woah, its not Japanese culture!
like for real though
"I NEED HEALING" you just couldn't resist ¯(ツ)/¯
ah yes… the Mom horse.

Cool video. I mostly agree, but i do think the drum is meant to be a Djembe. After all there's a djembe on either side of the super charger in the spray.
As a Genji weeb main I can agree with the "I need healing"
Orisigns

Omg the way he says orisa!
Huh, so Orisa is really a reference to Orisha and not OR15a as the OR14 were destroyed and the OR15 was bad..
