Daredevil Season 2: 6 Massive Hints From The Trailer
2. Elektra, The Hand And The Chaste
You know what are awesome? Nachos. You know whats even better? A beautiful Greek assassin whose surname sounds like nachos. In the teaser, the kunoichi (female ninja assassin) known as Elektra Natchios is shown tying a red, velvet mask across the bottom half of her face. Which spells trouble for Matt Murdock, because Elektra will steal your heart and then literally break it in her palm after shes pulled it out of your chest with her manicured nails. In Season 1, Murdock referenced a Greek exchange student in which he had relations with and that exchange student has returned, but as a member of The Hand, the secretive, Yakuza-like ninja organisation that gave Wilson Fisk a major headache (resulting in him giving a Russian mob boss an even worse headache when he kept slamming the guys head with a car door until the door could eventually close). Elektra has likely been tasked by The Hand to pimp-slap the man who took down Wilson Fisk. Elektra arriving not only means that Daredevil has a beautifully deadly enemy to tangle with (next to the trigger-happy Punisher) but shows that Season 2 will continue with some of the more supernatural elements established in Season 1, namely the war between the two criminal ninja factions of The Chaste and The Hand. Matt received his training by Stick, a member of The Chaste, had a battle with Nobu (of The Hand) and a brief confrontation with Madame Gao, who sold heroin marked with the insignia of the Steel Serpent, an Iron Fist adversary. All the pieces are being lined up to slowly integrate what will be the most difficult of these series to produce with the realism of Daredevil and Jessica Jones; Iron Fist.
