What I like about Sevika is her adaptability after battle. Her arm at first had a auto injector when Caitlyn exploits that, she makes it where she injects it manually so, it doesn't happen again.

[@killjoy4051]

I found out that Sevika means in hindi "servant of god", and makes so much sense since she's one of the most loyal characters in the show. I love Sevika, I think her back story have so much potential <3

[@th3voice]

Finally someone gets it. Sevika never betrayed anyone except arguably Finn, and that was IN LOYALTY as well. She absolutely didn't betray Vander because he was not her employer or commander, he was a self appointed community leader that she had previously followed. She makes her intentions to not follow anymore crystal clear and walks out. There is no duty, responsibility or promise she ever breaks at any point, except Finn's delusion that he, in HIS betrayal, has swept her along after her repeated refusals. To argue Sevika owes Vander some kind of loyalty at the time of her supposed betrayal is to argue that she is a slave. Vi is simply, flatly WRONG when she calls Sevika a traitor. I love that Sevika doesn't protest it... not because she agrees, but because arguing with Vi serves no purpose. It is not an admission of guilt that she says "Vander had his chance", just a dismissal of the premise.

[@grifhalo8118]

Sevika is the most emotionally controlled person in the show. She has insane ego strength, equal to Vander, and loyalty to a cause that never wavers. Such an amazing character

[@ariochiv]

You neglected to mention Sevika's sadism. She's not just a good soldier; she clearly enjoys hurting people. You can see this in her facial expressions when she's fighting Vi and when she "twists the knife" verbally in her taunts to Vi and particular to Jinx, when she was literally placing herself in mortal danger just to get in that extra burn. This is the chief moral distinction between Vi and Sevika; Vi is aggressive, impulsive and violent, but she doesn't

[@brandonpayne2877]

I always liked how Sevika is never scared of Jinx. At first glance, Jinx comes off as creepy but Sevika is never fazed. Especially when Jinx ties her up.

[@IAmSuzieMka]

I also love that she’s a portrayal of the perfect soldier without being seen as emotionless or have no autonomy. Instead, she’s a good solider because she can control her emotions and chooses to be a good soldier for a cause she genuinely believes in.

[@senpairaijin7079]

Sevika is an awesome character, I love the fact that they made her a Lieutenant/body guard to Silco, which is not normally a female role. She is a character that only really speaks when necessary and when she does, the people around her listen. She large and broody and she goes all in when she fights. Its really quite refreshing to see and brawler type also be gentle and soft when needed and not JUST because shes a woman, she is a great character. It was pretty funny to see how dwarfed Vi is compared to Sevika..... I think in Act 4 Sevika will win a head to head fight against Vi, there's no way story wise to just let Vi keep winning 😂 I really enjoy your channel and your cosplay! keep on keepin' on!

[@ReimaginedSkies]

It's interesting how much power and intimidation she has while being the least prideful/arrogant character in the show

[@thra-x1855]

im looking forward to seeing sevika inherit the mess that jinx made - the true test of character is what a person does with power.

[@The_Story_Of_Us]

An underrated Sevika moment: Walking through the club to Silco’s office she just takes someone’s giant bottle of booze without sparing them a glance and they’re just like ”Well okay then, guess that’s not mine anymore…”

[@devinwalters8769]

I felt she didn't get enough credit for how resilient and how much of a badass she is. She's quite a fighter, i could easily see her vi having a friend/rival style of relationship.

[@wtimmins]

I ADORED Sevika's advice to Silco about giving Jinx space. It shows what a dimensional character she is.

[@xtuffcookiex]

Sevika is a perfect solider.

[@moonlight2870]

What I love about Sevika's walk is that she doesn't dodge from anyone. People get out of her way.

[@GoonHandz]

“sevika is not a traitor…”. yasssss! u’r the only one i saw who recognizes this.

[@Raven_Black_252]

Oh I love that cosplay! Every time I say it can't get any better than this and you just keep surprising us! I also love Sevika, she's a really good side character. She is literally anti-Vi.

[@MaddieNicoleOfficial]

I think it's also worth noting, somebody may already have said this in previous comments, that Vi and Sevika even give each other breaks during their battles? Like, Vi had time to drink an entire drink and Sevika was just chilling in the seats lol before they picked up and started fighting again.

[@Addam_]

I think something else worth pointing out is; Jinx is the reason she has the prosthetic arm in the first place and Jinx even uses that as a threat when she has her tied up. "I feel like you and I got off on the wrong arm. Maybe we should try the other." It feels like it adds even more weight to her relationship with Silco that in that moment she still gave advice to him about dealing with Jinx.
