Arcadiagt5Hal’s introduction to Souma in #RealistHero is under fairly, if you’ll pardon the expression, pointed circumstances…
As for the bit where “Aisha… was holding his face in a claw hold”, you may safely assume that his feet were off the ground. Yes, Aisha IS strong enough to do that CASUALLY… #RealistHero
As for sweet, gentle Juna who is denoted as “still smiling” … https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BewareTheNiceOnes
Anytime Juna STOPS smiling in #RealistHero, and to quote Delenn in #Babylon5 “If you value your lives, be somewhere ELSE.”
The one time I remember it happening she was threatening to BURN A CITY TO THE GROUND if the enemy army facing Souma didn’t stop fighting right the FUCK now… and she wasn’t joking in the slightest. That’s from a much later volume of #RealistHero though…
Oh that’s right. The #realistHero anime significantly revised one plot point, and for the better I think, by EXCLUDING Liscia et al from the private audience with Glaive Magna…that changes who knew certain critical information WHEN… #IYKYK
Hal occasionally gets to be a viewpoint character in #RealistHero and, yeah, it’s safe to say that Juna, ah, impressed him…
