* Clarice catches a nurmal human tossed several metres higher than Agatha's platform onto her forearms, with <10% youki, giving very little way. Since she's significantly weaker than early story Clare and then several shown normal Youma, she's not that much beyond maximum plausible human strength, if at all. At that level [[Literature/LordOfTheRings one does]] [[MemeticMutation not simply]] catch a grown man out of such a fal and hold him like a baby. Also suspect: said grown man's spine and femurs are able to withstand this without even any sign of pain. By that token he would've been fine just to fall onto the cobbles directly.

In the mountains of Paburo, Clare and the other warriornesses encounter a male Awakening Being who was once a warrior. Because of his ability to defeat Miria quickly, although she was the number 6, he is believed to be a warrior in the first fifteen ranks. But most likely he did not have a single-place rank because Clare later fights against such an Awakened Being, and she is previously deceived that this is much stronger. The tenth place is awarded only to the warriornesses who receive a special training. Namely, her hiding yoki, and chasing warriornesses. And also the Paburo Awakened Being could hide his yoki clearly well enough to be held by the warriornesses for a human. He also worked as an "executioner" for the organization, and killed uprising warriornesses, which can, as already mentioned, be the task of number 10.

[[WMG: The anime plays not in the same world as the manga.]]
Already at the beginning of the plot it is explained that youma are simply monsters that can change their shape. The manga later states that this was just a myth, and the youma are actually just humans infected with a parasite. And the supposed change in shape would be the reason why the youma-parasite changes the host after some time. However, there are some incidents in the anime, which seem somewhat strange after this realization. This raises the theory that the youma in the manga are actually just humans with mutant parasites, the youma in the anime, on the other hand, are really monsters, which were never humans.
** The first youma that is shown (or the second one, if the youma in the opening credits is counted) took the form of Zaki, the brother of Raki. And the youma says in the anime explicitly that he is not Rakis brother, but a youma who has taken his form. If this is a lie of the organization, what is the reason for an ordinary youma to lie to a boy whom he wants to eat right away?
** The next youma took the shape of a Claymore to lure Raki as a bait for Clare. But the Claymores are not turn to youma, but to Awakened Beings when they exceed their limits. And a female Awakened Being can only look like she has looked as a human, the silver eyes then have a natural color, and the hair is also no longer blond (unless they were the natural color of the girl). This youma was also an ordinary youma, and not an Awakened Being.
** Also the youma in the cathedral has shown unusual transformation skills. It is explained that youma can only be transformed from her human form into her monstrous form, but this youma has assumed the shape of a mummy in order to be able to hunt humans in the cathedral.
** Much later in the plot, Raki meets the two Awakened Beings Isley and Priscilla. He later sees Priscilla eating human guts, and considers them a youma. But Isley tells him that she is an Awakened Being, and that Awakened Beings were once humans. He emphasizes this so that it is implied that a youma was not a human before.
* Another explanation would be that the anime was already long before the manga was finished, and the concept that youma were once humans was introduced much later.

[[WMG:Riful was awakened because she loved Dauf.]]
It is known that Riful was a warriorness in the first generation when most of the warriors were still male. And she was already a single-digit warrior, the number 5. Shortly after the male warriors became Awakened Beings, she seemed stronger, for she became the first warrior with the number 1.
However, she met Isley, Rigardo and Dauf when they were not yet Awakened Beings. Dauf seemed to have fallen in love with her immediately, because he had accompanied her. Riful did not seem to like him at first, but tolerated him near her. Later, when they are both awakened, one only knows that they have been together for a long time. It is unknown when they came together, but maybe when they were both still warriors. And when Dauf became an Awakened Being, Riful sought him, and also awaken.
Galathea mentions in the anime that she quickly became an Awakened Being. But warriors in a single-digit rank usually have good control over their yoma powers, and this is especially true for number 1 warriors. If Riful was not an exception among the single-digit warriors, and their yoma powers could not control it was quite plausible that she voluntary awaken.

* Raki will become the series BigBad as Clare refuses to accept him, destroying most of The Organization in the process. Males always have poor impulse control and become either regular Youma or Awakened Beings. Priscilla is the strongest Awakened Being in existence. He'll have controlled her impulses up until Clare's rejection gives him a HeroicBSOD, and then pow, he's gone. Then just to show what a BadAss he is, he'll kill off the Alicia and Beth with ease as his first act... right after paralleling the scene where Priscilla left Clare alone, walking past her as if she didn't exist.

They have SuperStrength and are MadeOfIron, but why don't they damage the ground? And when they do, why don't they damage it a LOT more? When [[Film/TheAvengers Thor]] escapes the Hulk Cage, we get a good example of what that kind of movement does to the soil. He has the [[TheBigGuy size]] and [[FlyingBrick feats of strength]] probably superior to anything even Priscilla can do, but not by that much.

It's entirely possible that she can do it safely.
