I literally cannot handle not getting a season 3 after the season 2 finale. This is such a unique story and I love all the characters. Please don't let the story end here! Ava has gone through so much throughout the show and she has grown as a character as well. We see how much the characters love each and if it is a possibility for there to be resurgence of Mary then that is what I expect once we get season 3. This show is incredibly underrated and if I could fund season 3 myself I literally would so please watch it because there are so many ways this story could end. I found myself absolutely fawning over avatrice but also the way all the other characters supported them!
Sorry, but I have to start by saying how beautiful Alba Baptista is. It's almost distracting how beautiful she is. Now, as far as Warrior Nun goes...I actually enjoyed it a lot more than I expected to. For some reason I thought it was show aimed at tweens but I couldn't of been more wrong. This is a fun supernatural show for anyone. It's about a young woman who wakes up in the morgue after dying and has newfound powers that help in the battle between good and evil. It may start off a little slow for some but after a few episodes it really picks up and very interesting. All the characters are well written with interesting back stories. Alba Baptista is terrific as the lead and has a very bright future. I'm looking forward to this new season coming out.
This show is Soooo good! Other than having lesbian nuns, warrior nun is such such a badass show like the cinematography, the scenarios, THE STUNTS! The emotions are beautifully executed, so sapphic, the whole plot is amazing and it keeps on building up form season 1 to 2! Alba Baptista character "Ava" is so well developed and her chemistry with Kristina Tonteri-Young "Beatrice" is absolutely perfect, I'm in love with them.
This is the type of show manga/anime - science fiction don't want to miss. I don't understand how Netflix doesn't promote it. It's incredible.
"In This Life or the Next, right?"

Warrior Nun: A secret order of nuns dedicated to combating demons, generally just the wraith type which possess people but occasionally more fearsome ones. Their leader is killed during an ambush and her internal halo is transplanted into a dead girl. Ava (Alba Baptista), reanimating her and bestowing superpowers on her. The Halo has been passed down for centuries and was meant for another nun who is now jealous. We get nuns armed with crossbows, swords, rifles. These are Ninja Nuns. There is a conniving Cardinal and a lot of Church intrigue. A scientist is also involved who has her own plans for Church relics made from Divinium (a bit like unobtainium). Ava runs away and teams up with a gang of young grifters. Great combat scenes, well imagined demons. The RCC Hierarchy don't come out of this smelling of roses so it may substantially differ from the comic book series it's based on. Good fantasy thriller. 8/10. Ten episodes, on Netflix.
The war between God and Evil is on. Ninja nuns with a divine power and a kickass attitude hold the line and maintain the balance against the power of darkness.
I am a huge fan of angel stories and all things related to biblical storylines so I was very surprised when I only recently learned of this series. After watching a few episodes I found it was slow to pick up the pace, but by episode 5 I was invested in the outcome and had become interested in the characters.
Well written and well thought out, definitely a great series and worth recommending after seeing the first season. Mixes fact and fantasy well with a blurred line between the two. A very pleasant surprise and I am looking forward to Season 2.
