History YMMV / RageOfBahamutGenesis

* HoYay: Largely stemming from Favaro and Kaisar's interactions over the series, and especially Kaisar's constant chasing the man.
** Azazel and Lucifer's interactions have shades of this, with Azazel devoting himself to his lord wholeheartedly, and Lucifer feeling quite a bit of concern for him.

* CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming:
** As tragic as it is for Amira when she finds out the true purpose for her existence, let alone seeing the state her mother is in when they finally do meet, it is very touching that when Amira finally gets to hug her mother, she momentarily calms out of her abuse-induced madness and takes comfort in her child's embrace.
** Jeanne and [[spoiler:El]] reuniting in heaven, in ''Virgin Soul'' episode 15. And even more so, when Azazel and Mugaro finally reunite.

** ''Virgin Soul's'' opening, "Let It End", is a rock song with just as much hot blooded energy as the original.

* FanPreferredCouple: Compared to Favaro/Amira, Favaro/Kaisar is more preferred over the other.

** Jeanne and [[spoiler:El]] reuniting in heaven, in ''Virgin Soul'' episode 15.

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: There's a lot of this reaction towards Charioce from the moment it was made clear the audience is supposed to feel for bad for him and his role as King, reasons vary but it usually boils down to people feeling that he either stole screentime [[SpotlightStealingSquad from the far more popular Azazel]], and that his backstory and motivations are not nearly enough for his character to be sympathetic let alone to be redeemed given that he had yet to be shown feeling any type of remorse for all the things he pulled since he was made King.

*** The second ED animation does nod to it. Where most people are dancing with their respective {{Love Interest}}s, Mugaro and Azazel are dancing ''together'', and mostly apart from the others. It also has a nod to Favaro/Kaisar, seeing as that they're really dancing witb each other while poor Rita is trying to get Kaisar's attention.

** Azazel and Mugaro has shades of this, with Mugaro admiring Azazel and the demon's protective nature around the boy. Episode 19 and their reunion brought the HomoeroticSubtext up

* {{Misblamed}}: All of the criticisms of the second season are put squarely on the scenario writer. Although she was responsible for the writing on some points, such as the interactions of the characters, she had no say in the overall plot of ''Virgin Soul''.

* JustForFun/XMeetsY:
** A SpaghettiWestern meets HighFantasy filtered through Japanese media tropes.
** If you're more title-oriented, ''Film/AFistfulOfDollars'' meets ''WesternAnimation/SinbadLegendOfTheSevenSeas'' presented in the style of ''Franchise/FinalFantasy''.

** Charioce XVII's grand plan: [[spoiler:to use a superweapon to take down Bahamut when he returns]]. How does he accomplish this? By making an enemy of both demonkind and the gods by conquering and enslaving them, and stealing their weaponry respectively. ''Both'' of these races along with humans were able to stop Bahamut together, and even then just barely, with many leaders and people being taken out in the process, and this was just more than a decade prior. And Charioce plans on doing it ''alone''.

* ContestedSequel: ''Virgin Soul'' isn't quite seen as a worthy follow up to ''Genesis'', due to the underwhelming opinion of the leads, the romance between Charioce and Nina, and Jeanne's story arc being seen as drab compared to the moving plot of the original season.

** Charioce XVII inspires a lot of this, due to his complex nature. Either he's irredeemable because of his actions and policies over the years, with his more human side doing a terrible job of making him more sympathetic, or he's a villainous yet tragic character who's [[IDiWhatIHadToDo doing what he has to as king]] and has to forcibly separate his empathy from his duty.

** Tye second season in general is seen as such. The world building and character interactions are interesting, such as Jeanne's search for her son, the morally complex landscape between races, Nina struggling to control her transformations and her romantic arc with Charioce, but the plot doesn't utilize any of it properly.

* BrokenBase: Is ''Virgin Soul'' an improvement on the first season, or is the first season superior?

* CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming: As tragic as it is for Amira when she finds out the true purpose for her existence, let alone seeing the state her mother is in when they finally do meet, it is very touching that when Amira finally gets to hug her mother, she momentarily calms out of her abuse-induced madness and takes comfort in her child's embrace.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Azazel and Kaisar butt heads in the second season, but not really. Not only does Kaisar not bring up the grudge he had last season against Azazel [[spoiler: for orchestrating his father's death and the ruination of his family's name]] but actually tells Azazel he deliberately failed to capture him, and warns him to run away from the capital so he won't get captured by the Onyx knights. Some fans feel the creators dropped the whole storyline so they could make [[PanderingtotheBase Azazel more sympathetic.]]

* WhatAnIdiot: Azazel is subject to this trope a lot in this series, due to poor planning and impulsiveness stemming from his relative immaturity. For example, his plan to use Nina for an attack against Charioce's forces fails completely because he built the plan with her as the only major cornerstone, didn't come up with alternatives, and assumed that he would be able to keep activating her emotion-based transformations.
