Her Evil Ranking[]
What Makes Her Heinous?[]
- After Maui stole the heart of Te Fiti, she emerged from the ocean and proceeded to attack and attempt to kill him, which ended with her knocking him away, causing him to lose his hook and the heart of Te Fiti, both of which went deep into the ocean.
- She proceeds to unleash a form of darkness that will continue to spread across the ocean, chasing away the people's fish and draining away all life from island after island until everyone is devoured by the jaws of inescapable death, which would have gotten lots of people killed.
- Upon spotting Maui and Moana sailing on a raft, it tries to kill the both of them and ends up damaging Maui's hook, which would cause the two to split up for a bit.
- When Moana returns, she tries to kill her again only for Maui to come in and block her attacks.
- She then tries to kill Maui for blocking her hits only for Moana to approach her with Te Kā deciding to approach her too, ending up with Moana putting the heart of Te Fiti on her chest after discovering that Te Kā was a corrupted version of her, getting rid of the corruption and allowing Te Fiti to turn back to normal.
What Makes Her Inconsistent?[]
- She is tragic in that her heart was stolen by Maui, which resulted in her turning into her corrupted version Te Kā, also making her a villain by proxy as well.
- She has moral agency issues since she was basically made of evil due to being a corrupted version of Te Fiti after her heart was stolen.
- She doesn't have any characterization and is pretty much a generic doomsday villain.
- She ended up redeeming herself and turning good after Moana returned the heart of Te Fiti with the corruption fading away and Te Fiti turning back to normal.
