Fridge Brilliance

 * Lute being able to . How? Well, apart from Lute's genuinely heroic/pure (though pervy) nature... It's hinted that Pandora's Box is actually . Can do it.
 * Lute getting Queen Aphrodia to lift the ban and high import taxes on so easily. How? Simple. SHE'S A WOMAN THAT NEEDED ONE!
 * In fact, when they first meet with her in Fronce, Lute presents her with several bras as gifts, but Marquis Cuvier tries to say that they must be confiscated to coincide with the ban on selling bras. Aphrodia instantly stops him by pointing out that these weren't merchandise, but gifts, therefore it was allowed. . Well played, Lute!
 * On 2 separate occasions, Cardinal Canossa tries to say that Lute's marriage to Shamsiel is the cause of misfortune to his people and kingdom. Even using scripture to justify his view. Which Lute promptly throws right back in his face both times. The first instance, Lute remarks how God teaches acceptance of those who have made mistakes in the past and those who are different. There's even a fitting reference to Mary Magdelin's story as a former prostitute that decided to follow the path of God, and that if the Cardinal condemned Shamsiel, Emeralia, or anyone simply for their pasts, then he would be implying that all forms of penance is futile. This shuts up Canossa pretty fast, and even Cardinal Fango thought Lute's words were spot on. The second instance is the morning when Lute and his group are going to visit Vunderbalt. Canossa claims that the recent attacks and misfortune befalling Edelland to be God's punishment cursing the people for Lute's marriage to "a devil". Lute then flips that back on him by saying that IF that were the case, why would God wait 2 years to punish him instead of immediately? Canossa just tries to say that the Lord's will is thus inscrutable. Lute then asks how he would know what God's thinking or decided? Canossa asks if Lute is trying to defy the Lord, so Lute responds that he only defies those who try using God as a means of judging/criticizing others. Lute then says an old saying about a "fox borrowing a tiger's authority" and thus he can't stand when a "fox" borrows God's authority (which is to say, using God's name for one's own benefit). Once again, this shuts up Canossa and impresses Cardinal Fango who agrees with him.

Fridge Horror

 * What actually DOES Saint Reaper mean when he says he'll "devour one's soul"? A very chilling thought.
 * For that matter, how DOES a succubus kill someone? Sure, they give us a few hints toward the likely manner, but really think about it... ?
 * The life of the fake succubi . Each of them is a spiritual entity that . Perhaps the worst part for them is that . Which is to say, the fake succubus and ghouls were NOT the most evil ones in the room, despite all things they did, but THEY were the ones who got their souls devoured.
 * Also consider the life of the Wraith. Summoned/born to fulfill one objective: drive people to suicide. If it fails? It itself dies.

Fridge Logic

 * The soldiers in Vunderbalt were able to recognize the fake succubus as an imposter instead of the real Shamsiel sooner than anyone else, because for the past several weeks to perhaps months, they'd been working directly under the supervision of the REAL Shamsiel, so they know her personally.
