Just finished episode 3, and me and my friends are shipping Morg and Michael hard right now-
Really hoping that "brother" morg threw in there was a camaraderie brother and not them being actually siblings-
That one blind demon was also kinda adorable to me, especially how he got a little worried when Michael got quiet when he attacked-
I have an overwhelming urge to grab the blind demon by the scruff of his wrinkly neck and carry him off that island.
The Teen Aged Starting Puberty Shreck (TASPS as I will now call that imp) while annoying, is starting to grow on me. I also find it interesting that in this show demons are actually given a chance to join heaven's forces. Most teachings I was used to growing up was "You go to hell, you stay in hell! Forgive everyone but never forgive yourself!" Type of deal. Little me watching Bible man wished the demons would get a chance to not be defeated and be redeemed, so Angel Wars gave 7 year old me some peace with that.
As much as me and my friends make fun of the art style (mainly for the lighting and the explosions being better than the actual animation at times) this is a gem of a show.
Still questioning if morg ate Satan himself tho, bc I think the lord might have been satan-
No. The demon Morg is a different entity called Krak. Satan is referred to as "The Dragon." He never makes a physical appearance.
I like Jaza his backstory is interesting. Honestly that scene makes me wonder if there's a tiny part of him that still has humanity left, or maybe he was just stunned he actually took down an archangel. I wish he appeared in more episodes.
I also like how demons are given a second chance. It's makes the fallen Angel parallels more deep and show that bad people can be redeemed if they CHOOSE it. That's what made Morg's death all the more meaningful. It wasn't a tragic "ne realizes he did do but just as he does he slips by accident" or giving up his life because he genuinely feels it's too late so he lets go as last repentance to give michael a chance to escape. No he flat out rejects Michael's peace offering! We love to talk how heroes can't save everyone but rarely do we point out how some folks don't want to be saved. But that don't mean we can't save anyone at all
I think more Christian shows could greatly improved on redeeming some of their villains. Even in the bible you had figures who were soldiers, thieves, prostitutes, adulterers, tax collectors etc who were able to rebuild their life. Bible even made a point that refusing to give someone a chance/playing the moral high ground is wrong. Ofc those people also had to choose to reinvent themselves. Even the first bibleman was a Capitalist Pig before his switch so would it make sense for him to also try to help antagonists like him? Cuz now I think about them most of them come off as emotionally immature adults who need a lot of guidance.
I dunno, everyone talks about how they miss a good unambiguously unrepentant villain, that's fair. I love a good villain. But at the same time we can't write off EVERY single one as irredeemable. Some ppl need help and a 2nd chance. So that's one of many reasons why i like Angel Wars so much.
