Considering most people here are genre-savvy, it's pretty much impossible to portray Jibril as intimidating based on appearances alone.
She's an attractive girl in both the LN illustrations and the anime, so no amount of lighting will change that. |

Speaking of her, did anyone else notice that while she was shrouded in light and had white wings, her wings also drew a large shadow in the background, which looked like a pair of black wings?
Since they decided to cut out more stuff from the LN due to time constraints, I started paying more attention to the graphics. Madhouse earned themselves some bonus points.

Yeah, the idea of "Death Incarnate" I can see not getting (and really, unless she looked like some sort of Lich or Wraith, it'd be basically impossible to pull off, which would then go counter to her Angel-like race), but not getting "Angel" from her? Unless all you do is play games like Agarest War that have a bunch of winged girls like this, I don't see how that isn't your first reaction.

She was fairly imposing up untill she spoke (although not quite as much as in the novel since they weren't quite able to pull off the plain awe and terror she inspired)., but that was the joke. Hope they don't cut too much of the conversation.

Actually she has pretty death like fish eyes, instead of the gentle eyes of a angel. And Pre conceptions are probably 80% of it.
If you were walking into a place you knew was a realm of a god killers, and known for slaughtering millions of lives...well everything going on in your mind is "Shittttt I'm going to die" can distort images. Sure the rational part says no one can kill each other, but you are meeting a weapon of mass destruction. |

I pretty sure she was letting out a airing pressuring killing intent. If you watched/read enough manga and anime, you should get the idea what it means by killing intent. That pressure is what had them shaking. She was made for war, so its not that hard to believe. Well thats the way I perceived it in the light novel. Wasn't really her looks, but her aura. Or suppose to be? O_o

For example, seeing one image of the infamous Yuno Gasai face isn't going to tell me much, other than she's pretty and probably crazy. Will that scare me? Not really. Showing what a character can do is a better indicator of how scary they are than how freaky they look. And if a girl has to look pretty, that limits the amount of grotesque features they can put onto her before she is no longer attractive. |

But you just know Sora will find some way to bend the rules. Like hire a carriage or something to chase Steph down.

Nothing wrong with that, going after a weakness is fundamental to winning. Also if she states the rules in the beginning it'll be easy to prevent that type of "cheating", as what she fails to do at every single one of her failed attempts. And Sora even exclaims how she never places rules in her challenges.
