Deleted line(s) 285,351 (click to see context) :
* AbsoluteCleavage: Her pre-TimeSkip outfit leaves very little to the imagination.
* AdaptationalHeroism: Besides her HeelRealization in the anime's Key of the Starry Heavens {{Filler}} arc, if not because of it, Angel the first member of the Seis to wholeheartedly consider joining Crime Sorcière in the Tartaros arc in the anime.
* AnimeHair: She decorates part of her hair in the shape of a halo.
* TheAtoner: She states that she can't be Yukino's big sister as she is, and swears she will do everything in her power to atone for her sins so she can proudly face her again. Around the time of Acnologia's demise, she's pardoned for her crimes and finally reunites with her sister.
* BrokenBird: Being separated from her sister by Zeref cultists and trapped in the Tower of Heaven put a huge damper on her compassionate disposition as a child, turning her into a callous and sadistic young woman.
* CoolBigSis: She is this to Yukino [[UsedToBeASweetKid as a child]], always sticking up for her whenever she was scolded by their parents. She embraces this role again after being pardoned and [[spoiler:joining Saber Tooth to be with Yukino for good]].
* CoolShip: She is captain of the ''Olympia'', an underwater temple that can convert into a high-speed submarine.
* DarkChick: She is the only female of this dark guild, [[AdaptationExpansion at least in the manga]].
* DoNotCallMePaul: After joining the Oración Seis, she rejects the use of her birth name in favor of Angel. Well, until she finally gets pardoned for her crimes at the end of ''Fairy Tail''.
* EvilCounterpart: To Lucy. Both are celestial wizards, but while Lucy treats her spirits with respect and kindness, Sorano sees them as just tools for her own use.
* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: She starts out with a bob haircut. After maturing physically and mentally for seven years, she grows her hair out into a HimeCut.
* FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon: She outright calls herself "Angel" and is a radiant young woman, but she's also a dark wizard, an abusive spirit owner, and a remorseless murderer. She begins to live up more to her old codename after her HeelFaceTurn, however.
* FamilyThemeNaming: Sorano has a name similar to her sister, Yukino.
* FluffyFashionFeathers: Keeping with her angel motif, many of her dresses have fluffy white feathers.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: [[spoiler:The members of Saber Tooth besides Yukino see her as this after Sorano joins their guild, calling her obnoxious but otherwise well-meaning.]]
* GenkiGirl: She shows a much more playful and childish side to herself after the second TimeSkip, even sticking her tongue out like a kid at times.
* HairDecorations: She consistently wears a blue ribbon in her hair.
* HeelFaceTurn: She finally turns to the side of good thanks to Yukino, [[spoiler:joining her sister's guild in the sequel]].
* HeelRealization: Although she tries hiding it behind a JerkassFacade, it becomes evident during her reunion and confrontation with Yukino that she has become terribly torn up over the crimes she committed as one of the Seis, to the point where she can't even think of herself as Yukino's CoolBigSis until she's made amends. [[spoiler:This comes true in ''100 Years Quest'']].
* HimeCut: Her grown out hair is cut as such after the TimeSkip; long in the back, sidelocks and even bangs. Note that this is after maturing physically and mentally.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Although she can be excessively cruel to her friends and allies, it becomes clear that she deeply loves her sister, as shown in ''100 Years Quest''.
* JerkassFacade: She appears to be unremorseful when she reminds Lucy that she [[KickTheSonOfABitch murdered Karen]] once Lucy starts piecing together her relationship with Yukino. Once she reunites with Yukino, however, it immediately becomes obvious that she harbors such tremendous guilt for her crimes that she can't even look her sister in the eye, transparently acting like a total stranger around her.
* KickTheDog: She shoots right through her own spirit Aries with Caelum to get a cheap shot at Loke in the Nirvana arc. She justifies herself by saying [[WhatMeasureIsANonHuman spirits can't die from such an attack]], but Lucy has none of it.
* KickTheSonOfABitch: She's the one who murdered Karen, the {{Jerkass}} owner of Leo and Aries, although Sorano is just as bad as Karen ever was, if not worse.
* LightIsNotGood: She wears a white dress, has white hair, is named "Angel", and is a Celestial Wizard. She's also one of the cruelest characters in the series, and has murdered a named character off-screen. She eventually improves after she joins Crime Sorcière, though she still has a nasty attitude to everyone except Yukino, her younger sister.
* LongLostRelative: She is Yukino's long-lost sister, who was separated from her when she was brought to the Tower of Heaven as a child. When the two are finally reunited, Sorano refuses to acknowledge herself as Yukino's sister until the end, when she's forgiven herself for her crimes.
* ManipulativeBitch: She uses Gemini's {{Shapeshifting}} ability to devious effect by figuring out her enemies' secrets and use them against them.
* MeaningfulName: Her real name, Sorano, means "of the sky", as she one day hopes to become.
* MysticalWhiteHair: She has white hair and is a talented celestial wizard. Taken further after the TimeSkip when she uses angel magic.
* SexyBacklessOutfit: Her first outfit has one to compliment the AbsoluteCleavage.
* SmugSmiler: She faces everyone with a self-satisfied sneer throughout the Nirvana arc. It vanishes almost completely in later arcs, however.
* SummonMagic: Angel is a Celestial Spirit wizard with three Golden Keys (Aries, Gemini, Scorpio). After losing her keys, she learns to summon angelic creatures over the TimeSkip.
* TattooedCrook: Has two angel wings tattooed [[RuleOfSexy above her breasts]].
* ThatWomanIsDead: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. She refuses to acknowledge herself as Yukino's sister and pretends not to know her when the two reunite in the Alvarez Empire arc. When it's obvious she can't fool Yukino and is pressed on the issue, she tearfully tells Yukino she isn't the sister of a murderer, but promises that Sorano will "return" once she's forgiven herself for her crimes. They do eventually get back together by the time of ''100 Years Quest'', this time embracing her true name.
* TookALevelInKindness: She starts out as a downright nasty and murderous young woman into one who is driven by a desire to make up for her misdeeds.
* UncannyFamilyResemblance: To Yukino: both share the same color hair, type of outfit, and magic.
* UsedToBeASweetKid: Yukino idolizes her sister, and has nothing but good things to say about her from their childhood together. Compare that image with her criminal record of murdering Celestial Wizards, stealing their keys and treating them as playthings for her own sadistic amusement. After joining Crime Sorcière, however, she starts showing shades of her old, compassionate self.
* VaporWear: Any ClothingDamage she sustains shows that she doesn't have anything under her outfits.
* VerbalTic: She has a tendency to end her sentences with "~zo" in Japanese.
* WalkingSwimsuitScene: She's reduced to wearing a bikini at all times after the second TimeSkip, even in the frigid temperatures of northern Ishgal.
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: Her hair is silvery white, and she starts out as one of the most sadistic females in the series.
* ZergRush: Her primary method of attack with her angel magic is to summon a swarm of angels with MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily.
* ZettaiRyouiki: Her outfit in her first appearance has her wear black stockings that reach mid-thigh.
!!In the Key of the Starry Heavens arc
In the Neo-Oración Seis, Angel becomes a practitioner of Angel Magic, which allows her to summon angelic beings that gradually eat away at her own lifespan so that when she dies, she will become an angel herself.
----
* CastFromLifespan: Her form of Angel Magic in this arc manifests her life force as coins that she offers to her angels. Stronger angels require higher costs, hastening her time of death. In the end, Dan uses his SizeShifter magic directly on Angel's magic, returning her lifespan to normal.
* DeathSeeker: She aims to cast her own life away and go to Heaven to free herself from the cesspit of sin and corruption she sees the world to be. She even takes hold of Gray's ice scythe and urges him to thrust it through her chest as Death himself would.
* GlamourFailure: When her angels are defeated, they shed their divine forms to reveal themselves as hideous blobs of flesh. She also begins to take on their form as she grows closer to death, her skin chipping away to reveal red flesh.
* ImpossiblyLowNeckline: She switches out her AbsoluteCleavage with a costume that shows off her shoulders.
* LightIsNotGood: Her Angel Magic allows her to summon angels in battle. However, these "angels'" divine appearance is a front for their true nature as grotesque parasites that feed off her life force.
* TheOphelia: She is shown to have lost a few screws as a side-effect of her new magic; she thinks that when the angels she summons completely devour her soul, she will become an angel herself. Gray manages to talk some sense back into her, however.
* TalkingTheMonsterToDeath: She is defeated after Gray helps her realize the monster she's allowed herself to become.
* WhatHaveIBecome: When she sees her "angels" as the {{Eldritch Abomination}}s they are, she realizes she is about to become another monster like them, which solidifies her HeelFaceTurn.
