3
4[[https://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/180-angel/list?title_no=321250&page=1 180 Angel]] is a {{Webcomic}} about a young angel who finds her destiny intertwined with the inhabitants of Hell, including their princess Lilith, who is looking for an angel...
5----
6* AccidentalPun: Lilith turns around Sam asking for a "straight answer" about her feelings for her.
7-->'''Sam''': I thought this would probably be my last chance to ask that and get a straight answer.
8-->'''Lilith''': Well if it's a straight answer you were after then I [[SymbolSwearing f*cked]] that up.
9-->'''Sam''': Isn't labeling sexual attraction a misappropriation of human culture?
10-->'''Lilith''': What are they gonna do, call me a sinner?
11* ActionGirl: All angels are taught to fight as soon as they enter school, and Chloe is exceptionally good at it: even catching the attention of Uriel, an Archangel. After she graduates, she is assigned to become [[spoiler: a guardian]], being the youngest ever even considered for the role.
12* AffairHair: A variant of this with Sam's ''feather'' in Lilith's hair after spending the night together.
13-->'''Xavier:''' Oh, wow. You got a little something in your hair there.
14-->'''Lilith:''' ''[pulls out feather and blushes]'' Okay, maybe she stayed for a little bit but nothing happened.
15-->'''Xavier:''' Yeah, the blush is really screaming "nothing."
16-->'''Lilith:''' ''[looks away]'' It was just a kiss...or a few.
17* AffectionateNickname: Xavier calls Lilith "Candlestick."
18* AloofBigBrother: Paymon and Thammuz keep to themselves and don't interact much with their younger siblings Lilith and Xavier.
19* AltarDiplomacy: [[spoiler: Sam and Xavier are getting married to seal the alliance between Heaven and Hell.]]
20* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: In the monster hunter AU, the three crimes listed on Sam's bounty are the murder of innocent townsfolk, slaughter of livestock, and ''being spooky''.
21* AnOfferYouCantRefuse: [[spoiler: Paymon]] makes one of these with [[spoiler: Lilith]] after he tries to murder her. She has to pretend that it was a failed suicide in exchange for her life. As it is a MagicallyBindingContract, she can't exactly break the deal. It left her with a square mark on her arm that seems to hurt her if she even comes close to breaking the deal. When she finally breaks it by threatening him, her arm where the mark was starts to disintegrate.
22* ApologeticAttacker: [[spoiler: Mazie]] apologises while holding a knife to [[spoiler:Sam's]] throat.
23* AgentPeacock: A downplayed example with Xavier. While he can definitely hold his own in a fight and is capable of leading a country, his secret hobby is designing and making clothes. As that isn't seen as an appropriate use of time for the heir of the throne of Hell, he claims that the clothes are made by his "personal designer."
24* ArrangedMarriage: [[spoiler: Xavier, the prince of Hell and Samael, a seraph, are forced to marry and become King and Queen of Hell as a peace treaty.]]
25--> [[spoiler: '''Samael:''']] We are getting married to prevent a war. There will not be any romance, or flirting, or fluffy, heartfelt confessions. So don't bother trying anything!
26--> [[spoiler: '''Xavier:''']] Oh haha yeah you don't worry about any of that from me. My father doesn't approve of the usual targets of my affection.
27* BadassInANiceSuit: Satan is shown wearing suits in a flashback, and he's the ruler of Hell who wields the Second Great Halo. He also wears one to a meeting with the Council.
28* BaitAndSwitch: [[https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/180-angel/s2ep95-girlfriends/viewer?title_no=321250&episode_no=121 Episode 95]] is mostly Lilith and Sam roughhousing and making out. When Sam tackles Lilith, and pins her to her bed, you'd be forgiven for expecting more of the same. Sam instead starts blushing and jumps off of Lilith, who is confused. Sam then explains that she has never felt this way before and asks if her feelings are normal, and Lilith tells her that "normal" isn't really a thing with love and makes Sam promise that she will tell her if she makes her uncomfortable in any way. The creator conformed that this was meant to be part of Sam "coming to terms with [her] demisexuality."
29* BeachEpisode: "[[https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/180-angel/beach-collab/viewer?title_no=321250&episode_no=117 Beach Collab!]]" is a crossover where the artists of various Webtoons (''180 Angel'' included) all drew their characters relaxing at a beach together.
30* TheBeard: [[spoiler: Xavier and Sam are secretly dating other people more in line with their sexual orientations, even though they are engaged. Xavier was sleeping with Lord Lust and Sam is dating Xavier's sister, Lilith. It is consensual though; they both know and don't care and are actually good friends. They are also expected to make an heir despite Xavier being gay, so he can't have feelings for Sam. Justified, as they were forced into the marriage as AltarDiplomacy.]]
31* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: Zigzagged throughout the series.
32** Averted with [[spoiler: Sam gets some pretty nasty and prominent scars on her face after Paymon attacks her in Season 2. They seem to fade a bit with time, but are permanent.]]
33** Played straight with [[spoiler: Lilith's scars from her near death at the hands of Paymon magically disappearing within several episodes. Justified, as Lilith has supernatural healing capabilities due to being a devil.]]
34* BequeathedPower: If one of the lords of Hell has no blood heir, it's possible for them to pass on their power via a deal. [[spoiler:This is how Chloe got her shapeshifting, she's the heir to Envy via a deal her mother made]].
35* BetterAsFriends: [[spoiler: Sam and Zero decide that it is better for them to stay friends, as Sam is constantly getting herself involved in dangerous situations and doesn't want Zero to get hurt. Even after Zero becomes Head of the Reapers, and proves that he can protect himself, it isn't possible for them to date because Sam is engaged to Xavier, the prince and future king of Hell.]]
36* BlackEyesOfCrazy:
37** [[spoiler: Paymon's]] sclerae turn black, and his irises turn bright red during his fight with [[spoiler: Sam]], and he is visibly not ''mentally well'' during it. When he is about to kill her, he loses his irises and he only has tiny white pupils.
38** [[spoiler: Sam]] also gets these during her {{rage breaking point}} during the fight.
39* BigBrotherInstinct: Xavier watches over Lilith no matter how busy he gets, and is always interested in her romantic life. He also is willing to put himself in harms way for her, no matter if [[spoiler: he needs to kill his other siblings to protect her, as evidenced by him trying to save her from Paymon.]]
40* BurningWithAnger: This can happen to Lilith if she loses control of her powers, though she generally lets it all out in Sanctuary before it comes to that. As she no longer uses the Sanctuary after [[spoiler: Paymon attempting to murder her there]], she bottles up her anger; Sam has to give her a {{Cool Down Hug}} to help her regain control.
41* CallBack: in Season 2, Xavier points out that he has met Sam before.
42--> I thought I recognized you! Your name is Chloe, isn't it? I guess giving you that soul worked out.
43* TheCallPutMeOnHold: Everyone thought that Lady Wrath's powers died with her, until Lilith awakened them when she was fourteen and was crowned Lady Wrath's heir.
44* CampGay: Downplayed, Xavier is gay and is a fashion designer, but isn't especially effeminate.
45* CainAndAbel: [[spoiler: Lilith and Paymon, with Lilith being Abel and Paymon Cain. Paymon believes that Lilith killed their mother, and tries to kill her in return.]]
46* CanineCompanion: Lamp is this to Chloe. He follows her everywhere she goes, including school. Lamp is also violently protective of her, [[spoiler: ripping off Paymon's left arm for attempting to murder her.]]
47* CastFullOfGay: Chloe/Samael is biromantic demisexual, Lilith is pansexual, Zero is trans and bisexual, and Xavier is gay.
48* CatharticScream: Lilith lets out a well-deserved scream into a pillow after [[spoiler: Paymon nearly murders her and she confesses her love to Sam]].
49* ChekhovsGunman: Remember Zero's boss from early on in the webcomic, who made one appearance? He is the '''Prince of Hell''', Xavier.
50* CleavageWindow: Lust has one of these on his shirt, in a Rare Male Example. Justified, as he is the personification of well, ''lust''.
51* CombatStilettos: Subverted in [[https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/180-angel/s2ep92-spar-pt1/viewer?title_no=321250&episode_no=118 Episode 92]]. Sam starts off the episode wearing high heels, but decides to take them off before sparring with Thammuz. She ends up fighting him barefoot.
52* ContentWarning: Multiple episodes in Season 2 have a warning that the comic is meant for ages 14 and up, to prevent the author from having to mark it as adults only. In addition, certain episodes have trigger warnings.
53* CoolDownHug: In Episode 79, [[spoiler: Sam]] does this to [[spoiler: Lilith]] after she [[spoiler: loses control of of her powers after confronting her father about whether he will force her into a diplomatic arranged marriage like what the Council did to Sam. Sam didn't get burnt because she copied Lilith's fire resistance.]]
54* CouncilOfAngels: Heaven is ruled by the Council, consisting of Archangels. They have apprentices, Seraphs, who are usually appointed once their Archangel retires.
55* CurtainsMatchTheWindows:
56** After Sam's hair turns blue, she has both blue eyes and blue hair. [[spoiler: Averted after her eyes turn red due to linking with the Second Halo.]]
57** Zero has brown hair and brown eyes.
58** Molly has brown eyes and brown hair.
59* DanceOfRomance: Lilith and Sam share a dance together during the Ball, knowing that they cannot be together due to Lilith having to take care of her mother's domain and [[spoiler: Sam marrying Xavier to become Queen of Hell]].
60* DarkAndTroubledPast:
61** Peggy died when she was 17 and was imprisoned in a freezing cavern for her sins, before she escaped 5 years later.
62** Implied with the Reapers at large, due to what it would take for someone to ''want'' to forget their human lives.
63** Sam's parents were murdered in front of her when she was a little kid, and she endured a childhood full of bullying for a deal her mother allegedly made with a demon.
64* DarkerAndEdgier: The story starts to have a heavier emphasis on the more disturbing elements in the plot around halfway through Season 1.
65* DealWithTheDevil: ''A'' devil/demon to be precise.
66** [[spoiler: Chloe's parents were killed after entering one of these with Lord Envy and her mother not holding up her end.]]
67** Chloe later nearly makes one with Lilith while drunk.
68* DeclarationOfProtection: [[spoiler: Sam]] makes one of these to [[spoiler: Lilith after their fight with Paymon.]]
69-->[[spoiler: I'll save you as many times as I need to, Princess.]]
70* DeathByChildbirth: [[spoiler: Lady Wrath - Xavier, Paymon, Thammuz, and Lilith's mother]]- died while giving birth to [[spoiler:Lilith]] because her magic was transferred to [[spoiler: Lilith.]]
71* DeceasedParentsAreTheBest: [[spoiler: Chloe wanted to become a delivery angel like her dead mother at the start of the comic. In addition, her parents died because her mother didn't hold up her end of a deal for Chloe to receive Lord Envy's powers.]]
72* DefectingForLove: Shades of this with Chloe/Samael's disobedience of the Council. She doesn't take orders from them, and is focused on helping out [[spoiler: Lilith and Zero]] instead.
73* DemonLordsAndArchdevils: In Hell, there are seven original demon lords, from whom all demons claim descent. The demon lords are based of the SevenDeadlySins, though the current lords are all mixes of the lineages; nobody is just one lineage anymore. The demon lords all have domain that they rule over and special powers that only their genetic pool has. They also look different, so a major factor in whether a demon looks almost human or looks like an EldritchAbomination is the genetic mix of that particular demon, with Envy and Lust being referred to as the most photogenic lineages.
74** [[spoiler: Samael]] gets her powers from Lord Envy and [[spoiler: Lilith becomes the next Lady of Wrath and reclaims her mother's old territory]].
75* DemonDevilDistinction: Demons are the descendants of one of the [[SevenDeadlySins seven Demon Lord lineages]], and Devils are demon/angel hybrids.
76* DramaticIrony: In episode 46, Lilith asks Sam what she knows about the Heavenwood Incident, and only the audience and Sam know that the reason why Sam knows so much about it is because Sam ''is'' the girl who was orphaned and her parents were the ones killed. Sam's full name is Samael ''Heavenwood''.
77* DiscoveringYourOwnDeadBody: [[spoiler: Zero]] finds his dead skeleton in the exact same spot [[spoiler:in the mines]] where he died.
78* DisownedParent: Sam disowns her dead mother in Episode 49.
79--> '''Molly:''' Chloe I'm sorry. I didn't-
80--> '''Samael:''' ''[walks away]'' Sam
81--> '''Molly:''' What?
82--> '''Samael:''' Chloe was the name my mother gave me, and I'm done being associated with her. I'm going by Samael now.
83* DoubleMeaningTitle: The title of episode 45, "Train of Thought" refers to both Lilith and Sam discussing their inner thoughts and [[VisualPun the literal train that they're riding]].
84* DualityMotif:
85** [[spoiler: Craig, Zero before he died]], had [[SupernaturalGoldenEyes one golden eye]], hinting at his Nephillim nature. He gains this permanently after recovering his halo from the mine and regaining his memories.
86** Additionally, in one of the season two title cards (used [[https://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/180-angel/s2ep68-broken-promises/viewer?title_no=321250&episode_no=86 here for example]]) Sam is divided into [[spoiler:one side being angel and the other demon.]]
87* DualWielding: [[spoiler: Sam]] fights with two swords during her fight with [[spoiler: Paymon]].
88* EarlyBirdCameo: Mazie first appears in Episode 60, Lamp's DayInTheLimelight, before becoming a minor character in Season 2 proper.
89* EasyRoadToHell:
90** Apparently ''all'' animals souls end up in Hell. This is eventually revealed to be because the loss of the Great Halo Hell has means that they can't expand anymore, so they needed the room for human souls.
91** A soul is left for the Reapers to take to Hell if unclaimed by Heaven within 24 hours. If the delivery angel is waylaid, or if there is a miscommunication on how much time is left, like on Chloe's training assignment, or [[spoiler:Chloe's mother being killed before she could pick up Zero]], a pure soul could easily end up in Hell.
92** Peggy and the rest of Zero's friends seem like perfectly fine people, yet ended up in Hell anyway.
93* ElegantClassicalMusician: Lilith is very beautiful and plays the violin.
94* EtTuBrute: [[spoiler: Lilith is nearly killed by her brother Paymon. Though she wasn't exactly fond of him, she didn't know he was capable of that.]]
95* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: Episode 94 is called "The Bad Guy Episode." It is about not one, but two villains scheming about various plans. Lampshaded by the author, who said that his girlfriend named the episode.
96* ExoticEyeDesigns: After [[spoiler: Molly]] sees the Supreme Being, she gets goat pupils.
97* EyeColourChange: After Sam [[spoiler:sees the Second Halo]], her eyes go from blue to red.
98* EyeTake: [[spoiler: Sam is visibly taken aback after she says that she is Lord Envy's heir after making a deal with Lilith, which was something even she didn't know.]]
99* FangsAreEvil: Averted, as in this setting, fangs have no indication of moral alignment. As seen in a close-up in Episode 81, Sam has fangs, and she is firmly heroic. Many demons also have fangs and some are good and some aren't.
100* FemaleAngelMaleDemon: Zigzagged.
101** Though Sam and Lilith are both women, Sam is the more traditionally masculine of the two.
102** Played straight with Zero and Sam. Zero is the male gruff demon (he's a reaper) and Sam is a somewhat cheery angel.
103** Downplayed with [[spoiler: Xavier and Sam. Though Xavier is a demon, he is has ''quite'' the girly streak, and Sam is pretty masculine and also is a warrior angel]].
104* FirstNameBasis:
105** Prince Xavier calls Lord Lust by his first name (Richard), because [[spoiler: they are sleeping with each other]].
106** Xavier also calls Lady Sloth by her first name, Phoebe, because he seems to have known her for a long time.
107* FlamingDevil: Downplayed with Xavier. He is a devil with a feminine fashion sense and mannerisms, but it isn't used to make any moral judgements about him.
108** A [[https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/180-angel/qa/viewer?title_no=321250&episode_no=55 Q&A]] shows him in drag and Thammuz's remark implies that this isn't the first time that he's done this.
109* FlamingHair: Lilith gets this when she uses her powers.
110* FlowerMouth: [[spoiler: Lamp's]] mouth is divided into three sections in his true form as Pestilence.
111* ForcedIntoEvil: [[spoiler: Mazie]] was forced to hurt [[spoiler:Sam]] by a life deal she made, even though she didn't want to and even apologises to her.
112* {{Foreshadowing}}:
113** In Episode 45, Sam is visibly disgusted when Lilith assumed that the reason that Sam is upset is because of "bad sex" with her partner. This is about 45 episodes before she comes out as demisexual in the comic itself.
114** In Episode 46 character cards, listed under Lilith's dislikes are "heights." A couple episodes later, [[spoiler: Paymon tries murder her by throwing her off the Sanctuary balcony]].
115** Lamp is always surrounded by moths, a clue to his [[spoiler: true identity as Pestilence, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.]]
116* FourFingeredHands: Xavier only has four fingers. Justified, because he is a devil.
117* FullNameUltimatum: Sam calls her love interest Zero by his full human name because his looking for something forced her away from a "date" with the Princess of Hell.
118-->'''Sam''': CRAIG FIELD YOU SIT DOWN RIGHT NOW! I GAVE UP A VERY GOOD CHANCE TO FIGURE OUT THIS CURSE TO HELP YOU! You're lucky I'm in a good mood after what happened last night!
119* GetItOverWith: [[spoiler: Lilith asks Paymon to just kill her after she's locked in her room after his murder attempt. He refuses because her being locked away is just as useful to him as her being dead, because he just wants her out of the way during his coup.]]
120* GoodIsNotSoft:
121** As explained by Sam, all angels are trained to be capable warriors as soon as they enter school.
122** [[spoiler: Sam]] also demonstrates this by killing the demon sent [[spoiler: to kill Lilith]] with a knife, without much hesitation or remorse.
123* GoodWingsEvilWings: Subverted, [[spoiler: Sam gets pure black bird wings because of her promotion to Seraph and her access to Lord Envy's powers.]] Despite this, she is strictly heroic. Played straight with [[spoiler: Satan]].
124* HalfHumanHybrid: [[spoiler:Zero]] turns out to be a Nephilim, with an angel mother and a human father. He thus has a soul, body, and halo, the latter of which can theoretically allow him to live forever by continually repairing his body, and if the body dies he can even resurrect through having the halo rebuild the body from scratch by using the soul as a blueprint, though he still needs food and sleep to stay healthy.
125* HalfBreedDiscrimination: Due to Nephilim reviving themselves and telling humans about the afterlife, Heaven has a "kill on sight" order out for them.
126* HarmfulToMinors: [[spoiler: Sam watched her parents being murdered by Lord Envy after her mum couldn't hold up her end of their deal.]]
127* {{Hellfire}}: Lilith can summon hellfire alongside garden-variety fire, and her hellfire burns what she wants for however long she wants, as long as she is still alive to keep it going.
128* {{Hellhound}}: The royal family of Hell keep a few of the guardian variant as protectors. [[CanineCompanion Lamp]] is also a benevolent Hellhound.
129* HormoneAddledTeenager: Lilith apparently used to take advantage of the succubi's "services" as a teenager.
130--> '''Lilith:''' Puberty hits hard when you have three brothers and are stuck in a castle.
131* HorsemenOfTheApocalypse: [[spoiler: The horsemen all seem to be animals in this universe. Lamp, Sam's dog, is Pestilence and Zephyr, Xavier's vulture, is Death.]]
132* IdentityAmnesia:
133** For a damned soul to become a Reaper, they apparently have to give up their memories of Earthly life, though it's unclear if that applies to souls that escaped from torment like Peggy.
134** Sometimes, if a soul is left unclaimed on Earth for too long, they can develop a "glitch" that renders them temporarily unable to remember their afterlives. If this happens to a ''Reaper''... Zero is the main example that we see.
135* InterspeciesRomance:
136** Downplayed with Lilith and Sam. Sam is an angel and Lilith is half angel, and half demon.
137** Downplayed with [[spoiler: Xavier and Sam. Sam is an angel, and Xavier is part angel like his sister Lilith.]]
138** Played straight with Zero and Sam. Zero is a Reaper, which is a soul of a dead human that brings other dead human souls to the afterlife, and Sam is an angel.
139* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: After Zero realizes that he is no longer an option for Sam, he encourages her romance with Lilith. Sam also doesn't really reciprocate his feelings towards her. He also uses his wish to get Sam to stay in Hell, so that she'd be free of the angels who treat her like the scum on the bottom of their shoes.
140-->'''Zero''': I would much rather be just your friend and know you were happy than be your partner and wonder if you were.
141* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Lilith tends to be an ass to people that she doesn't know, but is a real softie once you get past the gruff exterior. Justified, as Lilith is used to people trying to manipulate her because she is the princess of Hell and expects more of the same.
142--> '''Sam''': You're a lot nicer than you pretend to be.
143* LackOfEmpathy: Implied with Angels at large. Sam says that they are "beings of logic" instead of emotion, and Peggy says that they put souls in Hell for their sins despite whatever circumstances made them commit them, or if said souls are literal children.
144* LastNameBasis: Downplayed. Most of the demon lords are referred to by their last name plus their title, except for close friends or relatives.
145* LateForSchool: The first episode starts with Chloe realizing that she is late for school, and flying so fast that she breaks through the window of her classroom.
146* LightIsNotGood: The other angels were absolutely ''savage'' to Sam growing up because everyone thought that her mother made a deal with Envy to make Johnathan fall in love with her. As Sam explains, angels are beings of logic, not emotion.
147* LivingMoodRing: Sam changes colours in accordance with her emotions. According to [[https://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/180-angel/recap-and-faq-important/viewer?title_no=321250&episode_no=109 the author's Q&A]], the colour/emotion links are:
148** Light blues = neutral
149** Dark blue = sad
150** Reds = frustrated
151** Dark red/black = angry
152** Pink/yellow = joyful
153** Grey/white = shock/surprise
154** Purple = affectionate
155* LoveMakesYouEvil: [[spoiler: Mazie]] betrays [[spoiler: Samael]] because she is madly in love with [[spoiler: Paymon]].
156* LuminescentBlush: Lilith has a bright red blush on her face after embarrassing herself in Episode 80.
157--> '''Sam:''' So my "uniform" has been mostly work-out clothing.
158--> '''Lilith:''' Ohhhh I thought you looked a bit different! ''[blushes]'' Uh! Because, you know, the working.. out... thing...
159--> '''Sam:''' Smooth
160* MagicalStarSymbols: Lilith has a pentagram right above her collarbone. Fitting, for the daughter of Lady Wrath and Satan, and the bearer of Wrath's [[PlayingWithFire magic]].
161* MakeItLookLikeAnAccident: [[spoiler: Paymon throws Lilith off a balcony and has an assassin waiting at the bottom to make it look like she killed herself. When she survives due to Sam's help, he manages to convince Xavier that she jumped and he locks her in her room and removes her access to the balcony. Paymon also makes a contract with her to make her pretend that it was a suicide attempt in exchange for her life.]]
162* MagicallyBindingContract: It is possible to make a binding contract with a devil or demon, though no actual signing is required; it's done through a magical handshake. Doing this seems to leave a square mark on the demon/devil's skin, at least in the cases of [[spoiler: Lilith]], who has plenty of these and [[spoiler: Paymon]], whose chest is absolutely ''covered'' in them.
163** [[spoiler: Sam]] makes one with [[spoiler: Lilith]] to find out how she actually feels about her, and [[spoiler: admits to being Lord Envy's heir to Lilith in return, which even Sam herself didn't know.]]
164* MaternalDeathBlameTheChild: [[spoiler: Paymon]] blames [[spoiler: Lilith]] for the death of their mother while giving birth to her, to the point of trying to murder her for her "crime." Even more tragic, due to him being shown to be very kind to [[spoiler:Lilith]] until her powers awakened.
165* MeaningfulName: Downplayed. Samael is Hebrew for "poison of God." Fitting for an angel that disobeys Heaven's Council.
166* MeaningfulRename: Chloe decides to use her angelic name, given to her by the Supreme Being - Samael - to cut any ties she had with her parents. [[https://www.britannica.com/topic/Samael Samael]] is also the true name of Satan in the Jewish tradition. [[spoiler: Samael is also the husband of Lilith. Guess who Sam is dating? Surprise, it's Lilith!]]
167* MoreExperiencedChasesTheInnocent: Lilith is definitely not a virgin, and she ends up having a crush on Sam, who had never been in a relationship. She fell in love with Sam because she was genuinely trying to get to know her better and help her without any ulterior motives. Sam also didn't know who Lilith was when they first met. Unusually for this trope, Lilith isn't really a sweet-talker and frequently embarrasses herself in from of Sam, and Sam can be really smooth when she wants to.
168* MoodWhiplash: Episode 95 is a fluffy episode about Sam coming to terms with her demisexuality with Lilith helping her. Episode 96 starts off with Lilith and Sam talking about impractical floor length dresses and then [[spoiler: they get into a massive multi-part fight with Paymon]].
169* MundaneUtility: Lilith uses her powers for things like burning a piece of paper to dispose of it.
170* MyHeroZero: The best performing reaper's name is Zero, and he's also the main character's love interest.
171* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Downplayed with [[spoiler: Sam. Though she doesn't feel any remorse for stabbing the assassin sent to kill Lilith, she'd rather not think about it]].
172* NeverTrustATitle: [[spoiler: The title of Episode 12, Cookies!, makes it sound like a happy, light episode, right? '''Wrong''', it is the episode that reveals that Chloe's parents were murdered in front of her by a demon when she was a little kid.]]
173* NighInvulnerability: Downplayed. Devils are a lot more durable than your average demon, because of their halos healing them (like Nephillim). They can still die or get seriously hurt if you deal enough damage, as evidenced by [[spoiler: Lilith's condition after Paymon dropped her off a balcony]].
174* NonhumanHumanoidHybrid: Lilith and her siblings are devils, with an angel father and demon mother.
175* NonhumanNonbinary: Moss is a demon that uses they/them pronouns. Justified, as most of the characters in this setting are either demons or angels.
176* NothingButSkinAndBones: Zero is so skinny that he has literally ''[[{{Pun}} zero]]'' muscle on him; you can see his ribcage and spine quite clearly. Justified, as Zero is a reaper and he [[spoiler: died of starvation]]. This is averted after he [[spoiler: touches Sam's halo to stop him from glitching.]]
177* PlayingWithFire: Lilith and her late mother's powers.
178* PointyEars: Many demons and devils have these, including Lilith and Xavier.
179* PrecisionFStrike: Used to indicate that shit ''really'' hits the fan because there isn't much swearing otherwise.
180-->[[spoiler: '''Lilith:''' Now Paymon will be King of Hell and we'll all be FUCKED!]]
181* PurpleIsPowerful: Lilith, the princess of Hell and bearer of Lady Wrath's powers, has purple eyes.
182* {{Pyromaniac}}: Downplayed, though Lilith has [[PlayingWithFire fire powers]] and loves to burn things as a stress release, she makes sure that she isn't hurting anybody in the process and only does so in the Sanctuary or in deserted areas.
183* PromotionToParent: As shown in the Episode 46 character cards, Xavier basically raised Lilith after their mother died giving birth to her.
184* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: Xavier is revealed to be 84 in the Episode 46 character cards, despite looking like he is in his mid-twenties. Justified, as he is a devil, who have longer lifespans than humans.
185* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Sariel gives one to Celeste and the rest of the angels investigating the murder of Chloe's parents.
186--> YOU'RE ALL HORRIBLE!!! You three stand around discussing politics when this poor girl has just lost her family? Shame on you!
187* RecapEpisode: Halfway through season two, there is [[https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/180-angel/recap-and-faq-important/viewer?title_no=321250&episode_no=109 an episode]] that is just a recap and a FAQ.
188* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: Zig-zagged.
189** Averted with Lilith, who has red skin and black hair and frequently wears black. She is heroic and the worst she does is occasionally being a jerk.
190** Played straight with [[spoiler: Paymon]], who ends up having empty black eyes and red skin. He tries to murder [[spoiler: Lilith and Sam, blackmails Lilith to keep her silent, and is planning a coup to make himself King of Hell.]]
191* RelationshipRevolvingDoor: Implied with Lilith and her ex-boyfriend Adam. She wants to get rid of him for good but she enjoys "his company" to much.
192* ReroutedFromHeaven: [[spoiler:Zero]] would have ended up in Heaven but his delivery angel, [[spoiler:Chloe's mother]], died the same day that he did, so no one picked him up and he ended up going to Hell. [[spoiler:Given his Nephilim nature, and how Heaven has a "kill on sight" order for them because some used their ability to resurrect themselves to spread information about the afterlife among humanity, it might have ultimately been a blessing in disguise]].
193* RestrainingBolt: A life deal (which sometimes manifests as a symbol on the signer's skin) leaves you writhing in agony if you violate its conditions.
194* RightForTheWrongReasons: Lilith guesses that Chloe/"Samael's" secretive nature about their supposedly strict family means that [[spoiler:they're the heir to a title in Hell. The secret that she's ''actually'' keeping is that she's an ''angel'', but it turns out that she's Envy's heir due to a deal her mother made, something that even ''Chloe'' didn't consciously know/remember before her deal with Lilith caused her to say it.]]
195* SexyDimorphism: An extremely downplayed and justified example with Lilith. She is the most human-appearing of the devils, with five fingers and toes, a lack of horns (though she does start growing them in Season 2), and pink instead of red skin. She still does look like a devil, just less so than her brothers. Her and her brothers also are demon-angel hybrids, and some look more human than others, so it could have been luck-of-the-draw.
196* ShoeSlap: Sam slaps Lilith with her sandal after [[spoiler: Lilith argues with Satan over his treatment of Sam and says that she'd do it again. Sam claims that she can protect herself and Lilith agrees.]]
197* SpecialEditionTitle: "180 Lamp" has the "Angel" in the usual ''180 Angel'' title logo crossed out, and replaces it with "LAMP!" in pink handwriting. Justified, as this is Lamp's DayInTheLimelight.
198* SkewedPriorities: [[spoiler: After learning that she will be married off to Xavier, Sam's first concern is that she'll outrank Lilith and not anything related to being '''The Queen of Hell'''?!]]
199* SympatheticAdulterer: [[spoiler: Xavier]] cheats on [[spoiler: Sam]] because of the fact that he is gay and can't have feelings for her. [[spoiler:Sam]] is also cheating on [[spoiler:Xavier]] with [[spoiler:Lilith]] because [[spoiler:Sam]] is demisexual and doesn't have feelings for him either. Both [[spoiler:Xavier and Sam]] know about each other's affairs and don't mind because they are both forced into an arranged marriage with each other against their will.
200* SiblingMurder: [[spoiler: Attempted by Paymon, due to his belief that Lilith murdered their mother.]]
201* SuccubiAndIncubi: Mazie, [[spoiler: Samael's personal maid after becoming betrothed to Xavier]], was a succubus before [[spoiler: Sam's]] arrival in the palace, as all the other staff were terrified of angels.
202** The palace is also implied to have a full-blown brothel of succubi and incubi.
203* SupernaturalGoldenEyes: Xavier, the prince [[spoiler: and later King]] of Hell, has these.
204* SupernaturallyValidatedTransPerson: Zero was trans while alive, and after he died his soul took on the gender that he had always identified as. The creator confirmed that his human form, Craig, was drawn to make it obvious that he was assigned female at birth, while his soul took on the form of an assigned male at birth person.
205* TechnicolorFire: Lilith's hellfire burns white and radiates a red glow.
206* TimeSkip: There's a timeline jump of several months between the first story arc and the second.
207* TorsoWithAView: Peggy has a large hole in her midriff from the assault that killed her.
208* TraumaticSuperpowerAwakening: [[spoiler: Lilith only awakened Lady Wrath's powers when she was nearly eaten by a hellhound, and she burnt it alive.]] She's still doesn't like hellhounds.
209* UnusualHalo: Most angels keep their halos in a more practical form, like a earring or a necktie, and only wear a classic circular halo to formal events.
210* UnwittingPawn: [[spoiler: Xavier unwittingly plays into Paymon's plan by locking Lilith in her room after Paymon tried to murder her.]]
211-->[[spoiler: '''Lilith:''' I don't care. Why should I help you? You didn't help me. You didn't even listen. Instead you saw it fit to lock me in here and now Paymon will be King of Hell and we'll all be FUCKED!]]
212* UseTheirOwnWeaponAgainstThem: [[spoiler: Sam bites the assassin sent to kill Lilith, and once he drops his dagger, she stabs him with it.]]
213* VileVulture: Hell had a race of magical vultures that fought in the war. Zephyr, the only one that remains, is tasked with reporting those that don't belong in Hell to Xavier.
214* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend:
215** [[spoiler: Sam stabs the demon sent to kill Lilith to death, which was more than a tad excessive. There were certainly ways to disable them that didn't involve murder.]]
216** [[spoiler: Downplayed with Mazie, who holds a knife to Sam's throat to get her to call off Lamp, who had ripped off Paymon's arm. Though she ''was'' being forced to hurt Sam against her will by [[RestrainingBolt a life deal]] she made.]]
217* VolcanicVeins: Lilith has glowing red veins when she is using her [[PlayingWithFire powers]].
218* {{Warhawk}}:
219** Archangel Uriel is obsessed with going to war with Hell, to the point of [[spoiler: forcefully marrying Sam to Xavier so that they have an inside man in Hell's royal family]].
220** [[spoiler: Molly is just as dedicated to the war effort as Uriel after she becomes his Seraph, ruining her friendship with Sam.]]
221* WhamLine:
222** When Sam learns that [[spoiler: she is Lord Envy's heir]].
223--->[[spoiler: '''Lilith''': Are you Lord Envy's heir?]]
224--->[[spoiler: '''Samael''': I am.]]
225** When it is revealed that [[spoiler: Sam has been sent to marry Xavier to seal an alliance between Heaven and Hell]].
226---> [[spoiler: I am Seraph Samael Heavenwood. It is my honor to fulfill the wishes of the council.]]
227* YinYangBomb: In Episode 97, Sam creates and wields [[DualWielding two swords]] during her fight with [[spoiler: Paymon]]; one of light from her halo, and another of darkness from her scythe.
