Elijah to me was the only character that ever actually acted his age. He's been around a literal millennia, and his etiquette shows. So many childish personalities with Elijah being the true grown up in the mix.
To be fair with other "childish" characters like Klaus, I think that's Elijah's copying mechanism. It is suggested sometimes, that the "Honorable" role is something he has created and uses (consciously or unconsciously) in order to stay away from the Red Door. Of course I assume his personality was predisposed to well-manners before, but I think his trauma just exaggerated those features. But yeah, I would love that "millennial air" a bit more in the other Originals too. (Sorry for broken english)
@@ZurditaDinamitaeven with the âred doorâ explanation Elijah still felt and came off as older and more sophisticated then any of the other characters.
@@ZurditaDinamitano itâs not a coping mechanism, his coping mechanism is his dress code, the idea that is he appears clean and neat nobody will know what a monster he is.

very much agree. i never understood how characters like Anna, Katherine, Klaus and Rebekah stayed around for hundrets of years and behaved the way they did. felt very odd and off. hell, even damon. i know its kinda the plot, but how the factual F do you not get over a pretty shortterm relationship after 180 years?
He doesn't use a lot of vocab, or artistic words. What he mostly uses is complex sentences, which makes him a bit difficult to comprehend at the first go.
@@entertainmenttechnology9887 he chooses words carefully (something we learned since he made the original deal with Elena), implies the consequences without having to detail them, and sometimes gives the illusion that the one being threatened is making the choice to comply.
Elijah is far more dangerous. Klaus just acts dangerous, but at least you can reason with Klaus through emotion. If Klaus wants to kill you just genuingly open up, start crying, and tell him how you had a shitty life and feel worthless. He will start to cry with you and let you go. .......Try that with Elijah, and he will wait for you to finish your story, so that he will be certain you don't have any long lost cousins that will come for revenge, then he will kill you.
Elijah calling Klaus his "baby brother" is threat enough as it is. Everyone knows how big and bad Klaus is so talking as if he is just a child implies that no matter how bad Klaus is, Elijah is far worse. Edit: just the clarify, I know Klaus is stronger than Elijah. I was making the point that Elijah calls Klaus his "little brother" when talking to enemies to give off the impression that he was worse than Klaus and they should be just as afraid of him. Especially since Klaus is infamously renowned for his wrath, anger and violence.
@Francisco Leyva Martin yes, Klaus is stronger but Elijah is making a threat, it is there to scare someone out of doing something. He has to make himself seem more frightening than his brother, a hybrid whom everyone is scare of.
@@KimM13744 He actually is more dangerous, because Klaus is predictable, but Elijah is always calm, no matter if he's going to invite you for dinner or kill you.
@@KimM13744 I honestly think Elijah is stronger due to being older and having more composure. I suppose you could argue that Niklaus could be stronger due to his hybrid heritage. It's genuinely something that could be debated forever. Nevertheless, he can definitely subdue Niklaus. I personally think TVD and some plot have undermined Elijah at times.
Me too, i identify myself with Elijah, i am the middle brother, i heve a older brother who was too free spirit to take responsibilities, and my baby brother was too headstrong an prone to anger, that i need to become the patient one and the voice of reason in my family.
When he said "your attempt to subdue my baby brother niklaus"...Elijah knows he's the most badass mikaelson but lets klaus look cool in front of others. In return, Elijah always gets the highest respect in the family.
Klaus is a ticking bomb, one wrong word and he explodes. Elijah is an unloaded gun. One wrong word and he is loaded and aimed at you but you still have a slight chance of surviving your own stupidity.
The only one who actually acts like he's 1000 years old. Classy, sophisticated, intelligent and above all else dangerous. All of which make him so unique
@Francisco Leyva Martin Dafuq is wrong with you. You comment dumb Klaus fan girl comments everywhere and don't even bother to at least use google translate
"Gentleman, shall we?" is the best!!! there's the scene when Lucien kidnaps Cami and Klaus says: "if anything happens to Camille"... Elijah says: "Oh, I'm quite certain Lucien's aware... the devastating error". In that scary and threatening tone.
He got the best. What would he do with his life without Niklaus or Hayley? Return to being a pianist, eh? Nah, Elijah as an Original is always at his very best when he is beside Niklaus.
@@SCL111 I think he got killed off because of "Legacies". Elijah wouldn't leave Hope, because he would feel responsible for her. But in "Legacies" Alaric is supposed to be filling the parental role. But "Legacies" being a good reason is debatable
Maybe because Klaus is a hybrid đ the wolf side helps to dictate his persona, and plus their upbringing had a lot to do with it, klaus was a reject even before they were turned
@@lilscenechick1995 actually, when person has lived for 1000 years, you expect him to be composed. Klaus, Becca and kol contradict it. They act like College going angry kids.
Exactly. First time I saw him, I was like, this dude could snap someone like a twig with just a stare. Then they introduced Klaus and he was supposedly stronger. Can imagine my disappointment lol After watching TVD and part of Originals (still watching), it is fairly obvious that vampire age doesn't matter when it should. They should be equals (except Klaus as he is different) yet Elijah claps all of them except Klaus give or take. The writing is something else with these shows.
I loved how perfectly he and Klaus were 2 sides of the same coin. They both had the same rage and ability for pure unbridled chaotic destruction, they just harnessed it in different ways.
Everybody always underestimated Elijah. He was far more dangerous than Klaus. He had control and always cleaned up after his siblings. Hence making him more dangerous because he had a purpose to protect his family.
True but what makes Klaus dangerous is that fact that he has no control and he is unpredictable. He also acts on his emotions and when it comes to hope well thatâs a different ball game
@@denirocastle132 klaus is very much predictable heâs gonna choose violence most of the time hence no one expect mercy from him. But Elijah being the noble one everyone thinks they can talk sense with him but he is unpredictable
noone underestimated Elijah, or any original for that matter. Anyone who knew what he is feared him as much as they feared and other original. Klaus might be stronger than him but the difference between them is irrelevant to anyone that fears Elijah. Your comment is stupid. It shows you haven't understood the whole thing.
â@@rashmirathnayake_This. If Klaus is angry in front of you, you're dead yet. But if Elijah is angry in front of you, first of all you'll not notice it because he's such an actor and will play nice and cute. And, when you notice his real feelings, you still don't know if he'll _steal your heart_ (like, literally) or if he'll just chat and make a peaceful threat. Uncertainty is probably is best weapon, such a psychological torture đ
I have said this before & Iâll say it again, Elijah Mikaelson is the greatest portrayal of a vampire in movies or in any tv series, ever. Daniel Gillies was the perfect man for the job âšđđŒ
I love how Daniel portrayed Elijah. Most sophisticated vampire out of all of them. Such a good character. He could raise hell at any moment if he wished
I loved Elijah when he visited Francesca. âI was so pleased when the city took my suggestion and invoke Eminent Domainâ And as a lawyer she understands exactly what it means
I absolutely fancy his sophisticated language. When Elijah makes a threat it sounds like poetry. Notice that his face remains calm and emotionless when making threats towards people. It's like you can't predict his move and decipher his intentions. Elijah is less expressive but he's more dangerous than Klaus imo đ
My word, I didn't realize how threatening he was on his own, like with Klaus being an absolute incredible monster on the show it makes everyone else seem so non-threatening in comparison lol. He is also so dapper in that suit, an iconic character!! I miss the Originals so much.
"Stay...and the situation becomes irrufutably awkward." lol That's awesome, but Elijah is more badass when he doesn't make threats. He gave his word to a witch that he wouldn't let her die by Klaus's hands, and he made Klaus back off by leveraging that. Then, he killed her friends in front of her before repeating his prmise and saying that he said nothing of his own hands. Then, he killed her...and Klaus smiled.
klaus threatens with a loud voice and aggressive physical and facial gesture that puts horror in the face of foes. meanwhile Elijah just remains to be elegant, even when he's threatening a man about his life and everything he holds dear in the most respectful manner. still wonder why they're the greatest duo and strategist when it comes to war and family?
Nobody: Marcel: " hey " Ejiah: " Marcel, Grownups are Talking Now " đ€Łđ€Ł The way he treats him was so hilarious. Best reminder of him being raised by them.
the originals had something which TVD never had, strong characters that cant be reacted...Elijah, Klaus, Marcel and Vincent for me made this series unforgetable
so my brother recently started watching tvd and he asks me today "why is Elijah so calm all of the time?" so then I said "well I don't know, he's just always like that." and he said and I quote "those are the worst ones." and that was my favorite thing EVER.
Elijah is more dangerous than Klaus, though I've rarely heard people say it. Klaus is what meets the eye, a bull in a china shop, but Elijah is far more sophisticated and lot deeper than what meets the eye. Btw, amazing video!! I've often wondered how you make these perfect edits.đđđ
Klaus is essentially the frontal assault that you see coming, while Elijah is the knife in the back you didn't know to look out for. And this is why, in my opinion, Elijah is far more terrifying. Klaus might be faster and physically stronger due to his mixed heritage/hybrid status, but at least his anger is somewhat predictable and can be used to essentially trap him if you have the time to prepare for an encounter with him. Elijah uses cold hard logic, relatively careful planning, and somewhat questionable methods, such as blackmail, and as a result, is much harder to counter. The only reason Klaus is ever able to beat Elijah is the fact that Elijah absolutely refuses to harm his family even if it means he is at a disadvantage in any interaction with them.
@@ZodiacAnimeQueen how is Klaus faster? đ Do you remember the scene Klaus wanted to kill Rebekah, he took off first before Elijah did but Elijah caught up with him and blocked him.
âQuite the monster youâve got lurking in there. You wanna see mine?â âAnd if indeed you should prevent the redemption of the cruel, the wicked, the vindictive Niklaus Mikaelson, I will deliver another kind of nightmare.â
Elijah is so cool, calm and collected on the surface but beneath is a beast that is more deadly than the violent eruption of a volcano that will destroy everything in it's path.
Right! Also the times when Klaus had kinda fcked up nd Elijah would hv this stone cold expression, Klaus would know he's mad lmao so he would tread carefully despite being a brat lolol. Like the time when he slapped Klaus for burning Gia nd getting Hayley cursed or the time when he confronted him abt conspiring with the wolves to give them moonlight ring.
@@Anonimous12356 am sry m bad with remembering the exact eps nd all cuz I binged watched it lmao jst look it up on Google u might find it 'Elijah slaps Klaus for Gia and Hayley' or 'Esther comes back to life' or 'Dahlia gets killed' they all happened in the same episode lol
Elijah has always been my favorite, as I'm irresistibly drawn to that charming, eloquent, noble but dangerous type. Klaus is absolutely dangerous, but his constant need to prove it by throwing a tantrum and killing everyone is infantile and boring. I much prefer Elijah's calm, confident demeanor and the fact that he lives by a code that he does his absolute best to adhere to. To me that is scarier than Klaus, because with Klaus you're always expecting him to react like a brat, where with Elijah, you have no idea if or when he'll break his code and rip your throat out. Even then, the whole Mikaelson family is a force to be reckoned with. I wouldn't want to tangle with any of them (not as an opponent anyway.. *winks at Elijah*). Love them as a whole.
Lovely video. His threats actually remind me of a conversation between klaus and hayley, where klaus tells her we have all done horrible things but Elijah has done all those only for family. That's why he is the best of us. Most of his threats here are all for his baby brother and niece.
âI would violate everything sacred under the sun in the name of my niece ââŠâŠ..is my favorite line of all timeâŠ..like damn it rocks chills from my head to toeâŠâŠâŠhis voice is so serene n smooth while sayx it
I love Elijah. He truly can be terrifying. Klaus and Rebekah are impulsive and emotional, which is scary in its own right, but Elijah is the kind of monster you'd never see coming. His calm and sophisticated demeanor makes him more likely to be underestimated. It takes a lot for him to lose his composure, but make no mistake --- if you threaten someone he cares about, he can be unspeakably brutal.
Because his threat was not just his word. When he took that step into the house, he said âyoure deadâ without even uttering a word. Thats powerful.
i loved that scene when heÂŽs talking about al capone, instead of storming in and just murdering them like nick mightÂŽve done. he gives them a history lesson first
"Gentlemen, shall we" can't think of a better way to begin a massacre. Elijah looks so stoic and calm, that's why he's so dangerous, klaus is a lion with sharp claws but Elijah is a Knight with a sheathed sword, disrespect those he cares for and that sword, well let's just say he'll give new meaning to carving turkey
"Invite them over for a lovely dinner, and then turn them against each other and watch their pitiful alliance fall." Why do I feel as if Elijah could've been a great ruler?
Frankly Elijah is one of the best chars ever. When it comes to simple cold pure antagonist/protagonist. Daniel Gillies did it perfectly. The fact that the world hasnt screamed his name for this is insane.
Niklaus is the danger everyone knows from miles away. Elijah is the refined aristocrat who will deliver his threats with such unshakeable tranquility that it crawls under your skin and sends chills down your spine.
"Give me the medaillion then we may considered the future of your head" without context he sounds like a King judging someone, He even use the royal "We".
The fact that Elijah called Niklaus his baby brother! I guess somethings don't even change after an eternity like yeah he may be THE KLAUS MIKAELSON but he is Elijah's baby brotherđđ
The beautiful thing about his threats is they arenât threats. Just a matter of fact statement of what will happen if thereâs not compliance with his wishes. He has all the leverage and is 100% fine with going forward with either option. âYou can choose whatever you like, however, you arenât free from the consequences of your choices.â
So calm and sophisticated yet dangerous. Perfect definition of Elijah.
I love how noble he is.. very smart man

Elijah is more dangerous than Klaus, though I've rarely heard people say it. Klaus is what meets the eye, a bull in a china shop, but Elijah is far more sophisticated and lot deeper than what meets the eye.
Btw, amazing video!! I've often wondered how you make these perfect edits.đđđ
@Francisco Leyva Martin Why are you calling everyone fake just cuz their opinion is different than yours
@Francisco Leyva Martin kid đ
Klaus is ruled by his emotions.
Elijah is ruled by his very few morals and his mind
Klaus is essentially the frontal assault that you see coming, while Elijah is the knife in the back you didn't know to look out for. And this is why, in my opinion, Elijah is far more terrifying. Klaus might be faster and physically stronger due to his mixed heritage/hybrid status, but at least his anger is somewhat predictable and can be used to essentially trap him if you have the time to prepare for an encounter with him. Elijah uses cold hard logic, relatively careful planning, and somewhat questionable methods, such as blackmail, and as a result, is much harder to counter. The only reason Klaus is ever able to beat Elijah is the fact that Elijah absolutely refuses to harm his family even if it means he is at a disadvantage in any interaction with them.
@@ZodiacAnimeQueen how is Klaus faster? đ Do you remember the scene Klaus wanted to kill Rebekah, he took off first before Elijah did but Elijah caught up with him and blocked him.
âStay and the situation becomes reputably awkwardâ đ
âQuite the monster youâve got lurking in there. You wanna see mine?â
âAnd if indeed you should prevent the redemption of the cruel, the wicked, the vindictive Niklaus Mikaelson, I will deliver another kind of nightmare.â
HIM BEING PROTECTIVE OF HIS BABY BROTHER NIKLAUS IS EVERYTHING TO MEđđ
2:34 I love how hes basically saying that your whole vampire "army" couldnt subdue klaus so you stand no chance whatsoever
Elijah is so cool, calm and collected on the surface but beneath is a beast that is more deadly than the violent eruption of a volcano that will destroy everything in it's path.
I like how he smiles after every threat LOL
My DARLING Lucien. The darling was so aggresive.
His vocabulary is amazing
i want his vocabulary so badly
At 3:53 klaus looks so proud to be Elijahâs brother bc he knows exactly what that dangerous tone in his voice means đ
Right! Also the times when Klaus had kinda fcked up nd Elijah would hv this stone cold expression, Klaus would know he's mad lmao so he would tread carefully despite being a brat lolol. Like the time when he slapped Klaus for burning Gia nd getting Hayley cursed or the time when he confronted him abt conspiring with the wolves to give them moonlight ring.
â@@lilmeowarmy4161in which season and episode he slap Klaus
@@Anonimous12356 am sry m bad with remembering the exact eps nd all cuz I binged watched it lmao jst look it up on Google u might find it 'Elijah slaps Klaus for Gia and Hayley' or 'Esther comes back to life' or 'Dahlia gets killed' they all happened in the same episode lol
Elijah has always been my favorite, as I'm irresistibly drawn to that charming, eloquent, noble but dangerous type. Klaus is absolutely dangerous, but his constant need to prove it by throwing a tantrum and killing everyone is infantile and boring. I much prefer Elijah's calm, confident demeanor and the fact that he lives by a code that he does his absolute best to adhere to. To me that is scarier than Klaus, because with Klaus you're always expecting him to react like a brat, where with Elijah, you have no idea if or when he'll break his code and rip your throat out. Even then, the whole Mikaelson family is a force to be reckoned with. I wouldn't want to tangle with any of them (not as an opponent anyway.. *winks at Elijah*). Love them as a whole.
When Elijah says âI wonât ask you againâ you better answer him or your head wonât have a future.
Lovely video. His threats actually remind me of a conversation between klaus and hayley, where klaus tells her we have all done horrible things but Elijah has done all those only for family. That's why he is the best of us. Most of his threats here are all for his baby brother and niece.
i've always found him more terrifying than klaus for some reason. he's for more dangerous.
I've never seen this show but something tells me he can back up his threats.
đđđđđtrust me
Please, see this show.
He definitely can. Not only is he extremely powerful but his hand to hand combat skill is second to none
OH he can lmao nd he DOES
âI would violate everything sacred under the sun in the name of my niece ââŠâŠ..is my favorite line of all timeâŠ..like damn it rocks chills from my head to toeâŠâŠâŠhis voice is so serene n smooth while sayx it
I love when he threats people because is kinda funny and more badass that way đđđ€©
I love the smile this guy has, it's like telling others " Go on ........... If you can. "
I love Elijah. He truly can be terrifying. Klaus and Rebekah are impulsive and emotional, which is scary in its own right, but Elijah is the kind of monster you'd never see coming. His calm and sophisticated demeanor makes him more likely to be underestimated. It takes a lot for him to lose his composure, but make no mistake --- if you threaten someone he cares about, he can be unspeakably brutal.
Stil waters run deep. I loved how Niklaus thinks that Elijah was finally starting to sound like him. Elijah just knew how to hide it until needed.
The way he keeps his jovial smile after threatening someone that he would rip out a body part is the funniest thing Iâve seen in a while.
"Quite the monster you got lurking in there.. Wanna see mine? :)" is my favorite Elijah quote, like holy shit.
Might just be me, but I always found Elija 10x more intimidating than Klaus ever dreamed of being
Me too
Klaus's amusement whenever he is observing all this is so funny
THANK YOU FOR THIS, this is perfect. they're all great but the "anyone can enter" with Francesca remains my favorite lol
Mine too! It was wonderful!
That's my favorite also
Because his threat was not just his word. When he took that step into the house, he said âyoure deadâ without even uttering a word. Thats powerful.
Him : Making deathly threat
No one
None at all
Also him : *enter my sweet smile đ*
i loved that scene when heÂŽs talking about al capone, instead of storming in and just murdering them like nick mightÂŽve done. he gives them a history lesson first
My my you have a beautiful home...
Wwithh out invitation .đ
Elijah is like the most chill character, in the series. I've literally never seen him get mad, not once. He makes the most chill threats.
Elijah's threats are so classy.
The smile on klaus' face and the look of admiration when big bro calmly hands out threats is priceless đđ
"Gentlemen, shall we" can't think of a better way to begin a massacre. Elijah looks so stoic and calm, that's why he's so dangerous, klaus is a lion with sharp claws but Elijah is a Knight with a sheathed sword, disrespect those he cares for and that sword, well let's just say he'll give new meaning to carving turkey
I love the scene where Elijah calls Klaus his baby brother.
His calm threats are seriously scarier than klaus yelling
"I am fighting the momumental desire to mount your severed head upon one of these walls" that delivery was so sexy for some reason lolll
"I will not ask again" and "I recommend" are his favorite lines
"Gentlemen, shall we" never gets old.
I've never watched TVD or Originals but the moment I saw him i know he's my favourite vampire đ
"Invite them over for a lovely dinner, and then turn them against each other and watch their pitiful alliance fall."
Why do I feel as if Elijah could've been a great ruler?
oh he is lol ppl often overlook but Klaus nd he rule side by side, always nd forever
Elijah: Go do you're business like a good little boy" Had me on on the floorđ€Ł
Frankly Elijah is one of the best chars ever. When it comes to simple cold pure antagonist/protagonist. Daniel Gillies did it perfectly. The fact that the world hasnt screamed his name for this is insane.
Niklaus is the danger everyone knows from miles away.
Elijah is the refined aristocrat who will deliver his threats with such unshakeable tranquility that it crawls under your skin and sends chills down your spine.
"Let's invite them for a friendly meal, systematically turn them against one another, and then devastate their pitiful alliance"
I absolutely love how calm and composed Elijah is when he threatens someone he with such conviction
"Give me the medaillion then we may considered the future of your head" without context he sounds like a King judging someone, He even use the royal "We".
3:30 that threat gives me chills. Klaus is enough to kill them all easily but with elijah... it'll be done within seconds
The fact that Elijah called Niklaus his baby brother! I guess somethings don't even change after an eternity like yeah he may be THE KLAUS MIKAELSON but he is Elijah's baby brotherđđ
The Perfect example for calm people - Elijah Mikaelson
The beautiful thing about his threats is they arenât threats. Just a matter of fact statement of what will happen if thereâs not compliance with his wishes. He has all the leverage and is 100% fine with going forward with either option. âYou can choose whatever you like, however, you arenât free from the consequences of your choices.â
ahhhh love this đđ this is so definitely Elijah. he is so "matter of fact" when he speaks & with making threats to people you're right!!!!!!
âI have no idea where Divina is or why she ran away. Can I suggest you take a step back.â Is one of my favorite quotes. @ 0:19
âcan i suggest you take a step backâ is top tier
