Noted this observation of him on TV Tropes.

"One interpretation of his [Zeus's] behavior. He quarrels with Poseidon over who their mother Rhea likes better, is paranoid Poseidon is constantly plotting against him, demands respect when no one respects him, closes off of Olympus due to wounded pride, and tries to blame others for his mistakes. He massive ego and demand people respect and obey him comes across as at least partially trying to cover up his own mistakes and knowledge he is a failure that no one likes"

For fans of other series, this is basically the sort of thing Asuka Langely Soryu, Louise of Familiar of Zero, Trixe Lulamoon, Hermione Granger, Sesshomaru from Innuyasha, and many other characters show various traits of. It's basically 'I have a lot of angst and fear about my own worth and skills so I cover with bragging, showing off, and making myself seem perfect.'

So, does Zeus have this? Take note not only of his behavior, but also the behavior of the gods around him, and how other kings  (Odin and not-senile Ra) are treated and looked at.
