    I'm not even the biggest Emily fan (she's ok, don't get me wrong, just not in my like top 3), and it's seriously annoying the hell out of me how so many people suddenly seem to be thinking she's extremely weak just because Vox grabbed her. Like. She's a full blown pacifist. Could she have broken free of Vox right there? Almost assuredly. But that would require her to use force/violence and could lead to Vox getting hurt. And that's not her role.

    She's supposed to bring joy, per her statements in s1. And the fact she seems to be younger than the other angels, including Sera who she's on the same tier as (as far as we can assume, she's been shown to have a True Angelic Form, which so far those have only been shown for Sera and implied for Lu, both high ranking angels), I think she may have been created following Lu's fall to try and calm unrest and anxiety in Heaven related to his fall and actions.

    I think the reason Emily comes off as weak is because Sera has kept her really sheltered. Any time some seraphic muscle needed to be flexed, Sera took it upon herself rather than involve her little sister (for example when forming the barrier around Heaven). As a result Emily just isn't very experienced using her powers for anything other than portals and little trivial things like summoning fluffy animals. When she tries to improvise and use her powers to create new Eggbois for Pentious it takes her a lot of effort because she genuinely doesn't know how to do that or if she even can.

    People may point to her seemingly limited contribution to the bubble around the Might of Lilith as evidence that she's really wimpy for a Seraphim, that even injured she should've been putting out way more power than Charlie or the overlords, but the injury is only part of what was holding her back there. The other thing is PAIN. This is probably the first time in her millennia of existence that Emily has experienced physical pain, and it isn't just a cut; she's been mutilated here. That she gets back up and does anything at all while this completely unprecedented feeling is overloading her senses is impressive, to say the least.

    Sera definitely needs to do more training with her. If doesn't already.

    Agreed- much like Charlie, she probably has a lot of untapped power that she hasn’t learned to fully harness yet.

    Nice attention to little details. I realized Emily was holding back but I didn't pick up on the sign of it from her pulling Alastor free and that even if she lost the use of a wing, it wasn't vaporized.

    Thank fucking goodness the laser only hit one of her wings, not her entirely. Like Adam said, "that could've been ugly". And all that risk just to save Alastor, one of the worst beings in Hell even for a demon standard lol.

  • 5 points ArchitectNebulous

    She is an even higher rank than Adam, so it makes sense. Frankly I am more surprised she alone could not stop the machine from blowing given how much weaker the other denizens would be in comparison (but then we wouldn't have such a great music scene)

    To be fair, she did just effectively lose a limb, cut her some slack. I'm sure you wouldn't be operating at peak performance if someone torched one of your limbs to the bone either.

    Look, Emily is a seraphim, so one of the strongest angels, while Alastor is a Sinner, maybe the strongest but still a sinner. So that is logic to me that she is stronger

    Tbf she probably scales above Vox and Alastor but just really doesn't know how to fight---it's like giving a young child an automatic gun (they can pull the trigger but they'd probably be awful at shooting)

    Well she is like the #3 top dog angel, isn't she? The only ones above her are Sera (and even then only by experience/age) and the literal voice of God, so it makes sense that she'd be powerful, even if she's never had to use it.

    Can we, for the love of the hell, stop trying use logic in animated cartoon shows that made in similar essence of other cartoon shows like Looney Tunes(which originally is the big inspiration behind this series, or at least was in pilot episodes) or South Park or any other show like that for that matter? The people behind these shows don’t apply laws of physics when they are making these shows, they might not know or care about it, but the main reason is because it’s by a design choice, this show isn’t made to trying make mathematical equations or measuring angles or other shit like that.
