AsYouKnow, YouAreTheDemons is a redirect to TomatoInTheMirror, This is from Ragna\'s trope examples section. Since I\'m not very familiar with the games, I\'ll leave to you the way this can be fixed:

* TomatoInTheMirror: While the details are a mystery, [[spoiler:it appears Ragna is not a naturally born human, a point he tries in vain to use to argue Noel back into sanity.]] He\'s aware of whatever is going on, but we the audience have to wait on another sequel.
** [[spoiler: Used quite literally in Phase 0, where it is revealed the Ragna \'\'\'is\'\'\' the original Bloodedge, just without his memory.]]
* YouAreTheDemons: [[spoiler:And then Ragna was the Black Beast.]]
** [[spoiler: Until Phase 0 reveals that he was not in fact the actual Black Beast, and Nu simply fused with his false Azure Grimoire arm to form the Black Beast\'s body, and when he is sent back to the past he loses his memory and becomes the hero Bloodedge, who single-handedly fought against the Beast for a year.]]
*** DoubleSubverted. [[spoiler:Ragna gets absorbed into the Beast and becomes part of it after he dies.]]

EDIT: Forget that. I\\\'ve saw that the redirect was changed. Nothing to discuss.

Not necessarily \
to:
Not necessarily \\\"free game\\\". Human villains are almost \\\'\\\'always\\\'\\\' exempt from death in American cartoons, so he still counts toward the show\\\'s averting NeverSayDie.

And a subversion doesn\\\'t necessarily require the writers\\\' conscious decision to play with that exact trope. It just means, as stated, that a trope is set up in a way you\\\'d expect it to play out, then it isn\\\'t.

Even if the writers didn\\\'t intend specifically, \\\"Let\\\'s pretend to kill the gay character since they expect us to do that,\\\" that\\\'s how the trope plays out in the show: A character who is gay in the comics--and given the DCAU\\\'s general tendency to have ShownTheirWork is likely gay here too--appears with every indication to have died except, as it happens, the most vital one. That set of facts alone makes it qualify. It\\\'d be an aversion if Maggie was never put in a potentially fatal situation.
