Well then how about The four archangels were the mightiest goddess and among them mael was the mightiest so making him 2nd only to SD its true until if nakaba pulls out another goddess out of his ass
I hate to say it, but I believe you're stretching too far by calling Mael the strongest Goddess, second to only the Supreme Deity. Now hear me out, even I have the belief that Noon Mael is superior to everyone else in the clan besides the SD, but if it was really that obvious wouldn't have it been confirmed already?
I mean, Mael was called the mightiest out of the Four Archangels, said to be Meliodas rival and even nicknamed the ''Angel Of Death'' but the title of ''Second Strongest Goddess'' has yet to make an appearance.
Meliodas got such a title by being called the ''Almighty Demon'' or some shit but Mael never did.
If you ask me its because sun isnt his power, it belongs to the SD, unlike Meliodas who's power was all his and no one else's. I mean, would you call someone the 2ND Best Chef in the world if they just used the recipes of the person above them? of course not
same applies here
with this logic
Elizabeth is 2ND strongest


I agree with Otaku on the Elizabeth behavior being “weird”.
You’re gonna tell me a non awakened Elizabeth is gonna try to take on a nearly 6K Hendrickson but the awakened Goddess with the memories of 106 lives is going to do nothing against Mael or anyone else ? Come on now.
I wanna see her mollywhop someone
I don’t even care if it’s King, I just wanna see her slap some shit around.
Its even more evident when the example you gave supports such an argument. Elizabeth without memories has more aggressive feats than the Goddess Elizabeth whom has experienced a lot of suffering & pain through the curse and is in a middle of a war. I know she's a peaceful person at heart, but for her to remain on the sidelines and still have a innocent nature is unrealistic, especially when she's literally about to die and is desperate to rescue Meliodas whilst losing friends on the way.
Nakaba-sensei has failed as a writer if Elizabeth makes no character development before the end of the war/manga
I think mael is the strongest archangel even in base (just to keep the forum active)
Nah, I'd give it to Ludoshel or Elizabeth by a small margin.
Ludoshel's the most ruthless, seems to have more experience as the Goddesses ''best hunter'' and obviously has more feats + ''Flash''. Even without his blessing, I would still give it to him.
As for Elizabeth, her magic is far beyond any of the AA's capabilities and she seems to have this ''8 light wings'' mode which seems to be a type of enhancement (like a demon mark or assault mode) that has yet to be fully detailed.
Base Mael has no feats, hard to give it to him really, but realistically you can argue for any of them since they're all comparable to each other in power.
She said that ludo reigned supreme among the four. I cannot find where it was expressed that the 4 AA were unsurpassed in their clan.
Just admit that you're saying Elizabeth is 2ND to the SD only
