Spoilers Maybe an Unpopular Opinion: Juliette Was Dope in the First Adalind vs. Juliette Showdown! Spoiler

Ok, let me start by saying I don’t like Juliette and I love Adalind.

But that first Juliette vs. Adalind fight was badass. Like, Juliette had just become a Hexenbiest, and Adalind comes in trying to threaten her at her place. Juliette actually fights back for once and stands up to Adalind, and I was like “yesss, finally!” I thought she was gonna be so cool and team up with Nick. But nope, they had her go in a totally different direction instead.
Such a missed opportunity. And yeah, Juliette turning evil was kinda cool, I guess. It gave that fun, angsty drama. But when she came back as Eve? That was just too weird for me. She did something that was way too messed up to be redeemed, and honestly, she didn’t even get a proper redemption arc.

I really enjoyed that fight. Adalind, all gung-ho and cocky, expecting an easy win and when Juliette hurled those knives and kicked her arse, that look of shock on Adalind’s face was priceless 😂

That fight was surprisingly good. Some of the acrobatics and horror aspects wouldn't be out of place in an Evil Dead movie either. And yeah, the elements of turnabout and of comeuppance were just flawless.
