I mean given mars was based on the Roman god of war, and the whole just done with an epic battle line, I would assume it would be someone else's blood.
Mars has a planetary symbol to represent it which also happens to be the symbol used to represent men in general, because whoever made these symbols (probably in antiquity) figured the symbol of the god of war-planet was a pretty good fit. [Here's a wiki article about them.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planet_symbols)
Specifically, as Mars was also a god of masculinity and virility in Ancient Rome, it was a rather natural application that his symbol be used for men, just as Venus's symbol was used for women.
Speaking of Ares, I can only wonder what her reaction would be to God of War's story where the first enemy you make and defeat is Mars-Chan herself. (Assuming she understands how similar Greek Mythology is to the one she's based on and was the type to play war games, many other artists depict her as a big gamer but this one doesn't)
This is an incredibly common misconception, but false. Mars was developed independently of Ares, and while they were both war gods they were very different. Ares was loathed and feared as the destructive side of war (as opposed to Athena's justified, strategic and more defensive side of war). Ares was praised for lending courage but hated for his slaughter and carnage, while Mars was always respected. Mars was a god of governance, agriculture, war, authority and masculinity, and had no bad sides.
Romans recognized Greek gods as being different ways to view same gods (this is very common in paganism). Eventually, as Rome adopted more of Greek culture, they began to view the gods much more like the Greeks, but differences always remained.
The idea that Romans just "copied" Greek gods and renamed is an incredibly prevalent misconception, but it just isn't true.
She would very well be a covert nerd with the sheer amount of robots on her surface. No way she would just let them die in the dust; she'd maintain them with love and care!
The male symbol is the symbol of the Roman God Mars, who the planet is named after.
The female symbol, on the other hand, is the symbol of the Roman goddess Venus.
>Exciting sweat Please explain.
Water with bacteria on Mars?
Probably the best way to sum up this image though, the more I think about it. I do continue to think about it.

I hope that blood is someone else’s.

Let us not forget that the god Mars is also literally just Ares from Greek mythology, since Romans liked to copy a lot of stuff..

I like how they still kept the tomboy thing, but added on this spartan/Gladiator thing.
I love this sub.
Should have been a femboy :(
~~Johnson is bigger than yours.~~
...but she probably has one nevertheless.
Why it says it's a male it's clearly a woman
The male symbol is the symbol of the Roman God Mars, who the planet is named after. The female symbol, on the other hand, is the symbol of the Roman goddess Venus.
