like yeah obviously arknights is a little more anime and a little more silly than, like, the most serious stories out there. but, like, 90% of the time, you have a scene where a character, even the strongest and best and brightest characters gets surrounded, betrayed, overwhelmed, or takes on a traditional vow and pays a heavy price for it. It happens all the time in arknights, too!

outcast's death, ace's final stand, logos vs the nachzerer king, the last steam knight also versus the nachzerer king, the steam knights guarding the sighs of kings, ascalon's disappearance, theresa vs the doctor, it happens constantly! it's a great, dramatic trope.

so then you get juana versus her entire old crew. 1v100. stronger fighters have faced better odds and it tore them to shreds. literally facing off against someone she raised, in a traditional blood challenge circle. this is every death flag all at once.

but no. she just wins. she just kills so many of them that they stop coming, without breaking a sweat. she gets injured ONCE. ONE TIME. and walks it off! the story's like "yeah she got hit to the bone" and she just walks it off. she's like 80+ years old and just beat an entire pirate ship's worth of people a quarter her age.

Ah, but you consider: they don't always die! logos had to call his mom after losing that fight, surely she'll just be out of the next few scenes and pop back later. Nope! after beating an entire ship's worth of people, she just jumps back to the other ship and rejoins the fray.

truly incredible. nobody does it like her. 100/10 character
