Occult Research Club/Hyodo Residence

[edit]Issei Hyodo

• In Knight Form, called Welsh Sonic Boost Knight (龍星の騎士（ウェルシュ・ソニックブースト・ナイト） Werushu Sonikku Būsuto Naito^?, lit. "Dragon Star Knight"), he possesses enormous speed that far surpasses Sairaorg's speed, but makes his armor thin, and so it has low defense.
• In Rook Form, called Welsh Dragonic Rook (龍剛の戦車（ウェルシュ・ドラゴニック・ルーク） Werushu Doragonikku Rūku^?, lit. "Rigid Dragon Tank"), he possesses massive power and defense, but has low speed because of the massive, thickened armor.
• In Bishop Form, called Welsh Blaster Bishop (龍牙の僧侶（ウェルシュ・ブラスター・ビショップ） Werushu Burasutā Bishoppu^?, lit. "Dragon Fang Monk"), he possesses an enormous amount of magical energy in which he applies it to the two cannons at the back of his armor which can both simultaneously fire the Dragon Blaster (ドラゴンブラスター Doragon Burasutā^?), a severely boosted equivalent of his Dragon Shot capable of leveling battlefields and briefly warp space-time. The drawbacks to this is the amount of time it takes to charge the cannons and stamina lost with each shot. However, this can be replenished by Rias' "Oppai Beam".
• In Volume 10 of the light novels, he later gains access to a Queen Mode, called Cardinal Crimson Promotion (真紅の赫龍帝（カーディナル・クリムゾン・プロモーション） Kādinaru Kurimuzon Puromōshon^?, lit. "True Crimson Dragon Emperor") which is equally as powerful as Juggernaut Drive. Juggernaut Drive is similar to the full-bodied armor of the Boosted Gear, the Scale Mail, which gives him the Balance Breaker ability except the host (Issei) loses consciousness, the posture and shape changes from a humanoid Dragon-armored form to a dragon form, and Ddraig goes on a berserk rampage, rapidly eating up the host's lifeforce until death. He also has access to a form called "True Queen Mode", which combines the abilities developed in the other forms. So the more power and defense he develops in Rook form, the stronger the power and defense of True Queen Mode is. However, he has to develop the other modes somewhat equally or it will create an imbalance when combined. As such, until he gets better at stabilizing and using True Queen Mode, he will only be able to use and maintain it for short periods of time before it shuts down, leaving him exhausted. For the time being, he will train to build up and stabilize True Queen Mode and will just promote himself to Queen, but not the armor. Like the Bishop Form, there are two cannons he can charge (but at a faster rate with more power) and fire, but are connected to the armor's wings instead of his shoulders.
• Super Gigantic Balance Breaker (超巨大禁手^?) is a form Issei attained in Volume 12 by combining with Great Red. In this state, Issei is in his normal Scale Mail armor, but is an enormous giant the size of Great Red. He uses this form to destroy the largest of the thirteen beasts created by the Annihilation Maker, Jabberwocky. In this form, his powers are boosted to an extreme that he could literally destroy an area in the Underworld. For example, the Longinus Smasher that blasted Shalba away with one hit would not only kill Jabberwocky, but destroy that part of the Underworld Jabberwocky was standing on as well. However, Issei will not be able to use this form again unless Great Red returns and willingly combines with him again. The only reason Great Red did it at the time was because, according to him, he did not like the way Jabberwocky was glaring at him.

Sona Sitri (ソーナ・シトリー Sōna Shitorī^?) / Sona Shitori (支取 蒼那 Shitori Sōna^?)

Voiced by: Natsumi Takamori

Sona is the Student Council President in Kuoh Academy, the next heir of the Sitri Family, and Rias' childhood friend and rival. Her real name is Sona Sitri, while Sona Shitori is her alias at Kuoh Academy. Sona wears glasses and is the third most popular girl in school, behind Rias and Akeno. She resurrected Saji to be her Pawn with the use of 4 Pawn pieces. Her peerage consists of only females, except for Saji who is the only male. She specializes in using water-based magic, and is an excellent strategist whose Rating Game specialty is the Technique type. This is advantageous against Rating Game Kings who specialty is the Power type (like Rias), as techniques can be used to either prevent an attack from hitting, trap an opponent, or turn a Power user's attack back against them. Like how Tsubaki's Mirror Alice reflected Xenovia's powerful strike back at her with Tsubaki's power added to it. Sona dreams of opening a school on Rating Games for all Devils, regardless of their rank and status.

In the Rating Game with the Occult Research Club, she earned much acclaim by outplanning and turning the Gremory's power against them to eliminate several pieces. Her power, inherited through the Sitri family line, specializes in using and manipulating water with the added bonus of being able to draw upon any large amounts of water in the area to supplement her abilities. Most likely why her spell (both teleporting and magic) circles glow blue and her sister Serafall is extremely adept with ice as well. Although Sona seems to only be able to control large amounts of water (or the water element in her spells), in combat as she was able to regenerate her water shield by drawing upon all the water in the mall, but did not attempt to control the water within the bodies of the Gremory team members. Although in an anime special extra episode, she was able to use her water magic on a small scale to combine magic, water, and the ingredients for a superb noodle dish. However, doing it on such a small scale requires intense focus and concentration; if she is distracted even for a moment, it can warp the spell, including the food, in unexpected ways. She still retains 3 unused Pawn pieces, but is currently negotiating with a couple of people to fill the remaining Rook and Knight positions, whom she later found in Loup Garou and Bennia in Volume 14. Although Bennia wasn't her first choice for a Knight, she hadn't been able to arrange a meeting with the person she was originally considering. During the battle in Volume 14, Issei notes that her brain is in a completely different zone and that he doesn't want to fight another Rating Game with Sitri Group again.

Tsubaki Shinra (真羅 椿姫 Shinra Tsubaki^?)

Voiced by: Akiko Kimura

The Vice-President of the Student Council and Souna's Queen. Her relationship with Souna is similar to that of Rias and Akeno. She is the fourth most popular girl in the school, and alsowears glasses. She is a master swordsman who faced against both Yuto and Xenovia on separate occasions during their Rating Game. While she manages to defeat Xenovia, she failed to gain the upper hand against Yuto by sword skills alone. Her Sacred Gear, Mirror Alice (追憶の鏡（ミラー・アリス） Mirā Arisu^?, lit. "Mirror of Recollection"), reflects double damage but cannot be summoned twice in a row without a cooldown period. After losing to Yuto at the Rating Game between their masters, she develops a huge crush on him. Also like him, she seems to prefer fighting with just swords and her Sacred Gear while leaving magic attacks to her group's King and Bishops. Her magic level should be higher than average as her group's Queen.

Genshiro Saji (匙 元士郎 Saji Genshirō^?)

Voiced by: Yūichi Iguchi

The Student Council Secretary and Sona's Pawn who became a Devil through the use of 4 Pawn pieces used by the latter. He is an inferior rival to Issei and is jealous of his relationship with the women of the Occult Research Club, especially with its president Rias. He is in love with Souna, expressing a desire to sleep with her and "accidentally" impregnate her so that they would get married. He is very supportive of Sona's dreams, stating that her dreams are his dreams. So much so that in the Rating Game with the Occult Research Club, he tapped into his life force to power up his abilities and inflict serious damage on Issei before losing their one-on-one duel, but gaining recognition from the VIPs watching the Game. He plans on helping fulfill Sona's dream by becoming a teacher. However, he is extremely jealous of Issei's relationship with his master, Rias, being called by name by Sona, and having ecchi encounters with beautiful girls while he (Saji) is not even registering on Sona's radar as a potential boyfriend.

He is in possession of a Sacred Gear called "Absorption Line" (黒い龍脈（アブソーブション・ライン） Absōrpushon Rain^?, lit. "Black Dragon Pulse"), which holds the soul of Vritra, the Black Dragon and one of the Five Dragon Kings. Originally it was split up into four individual pieces with him only having a portion of it, but eventually Azazel gathers all the pieces and combines them together for Saji. His three remaining Sacred Gears are "Blaze Black Flare" (邪龍の黒炎（ブレイズ・ブラック・フレア） Bureizu Burakku Furea^?, lit. "Evil Dragon's Black Flame"), "Delete Field" (漆黒の領域（デリート・フィールド） Derīto Fīrudo^?, lit. "Domain of Darkness"), and "Shadow Prison" (龍の牢獄（シャドウ・プリズン） Shadō Purizun^?, lit. "Dragon Prison"). Saji is far from being able to control the power of Vritra, and would usually go out of control when used extensively. In Volume 7, it is revealed that Saji can enter into a Dragon King form called "Vritra Promotion" (龍王変化（ヴリトラ・プロモーション） Vuritora Promōshon^?, lit. "Dragon King Transformation"). However, while he does start conversing with Vritra like Issei talks with Ddraig, he can only handle so much power for so long without going berserk. Also, Vritra says Saji will go berserk if Issei uses Boost and Transfer to increase Saji's power. Fortunately for him, he is willing and able to endure grueling training and hardship to get stronger as he wants to surpass his friend, rival, and fellow Pawn Issei.

Tsubasa Yura (由良 翼紗 Yura Tsubasa^?)

A second-year student at Kuoh Academy and Sona's Rook. She has a crush on Issei after watching the latter's Rating Game match against Sairaorg. In the Rating Game with the Occult Research Club, she was eliminated by Kiba and Xenovia. In Volume 14, she receives from Azazel an artificial Sacred Gear called "Twinkle Aegis" (精霊と栄光の盾（トゥインクル・イージス） Tuinkuru Ījisu^?).

Tomoe Meguri (巡 巴柄 Meguri Tomoe^?)

Voiced by: Kiyono Yasuno

A second-year student at Kuoh Academy and Sona's Knight. Meguri comes from a family of that specializes in destroying evil spirits. In the Rating Game with the Occult Research Club, she was eliminated by Kiba and Xenovia. In Volume 14, she receives from Azazel an artificial Sacred Gear called the "Blazer Shining Aura Darkness Samurai Sword" (閃光と暗黒の龍絶刀（ブレイザー・シャイニング･オア・ダークネス・サムライソード） Burizā Shainigu Oa Dākunesu Samurai Sōdo^?), a katana version of the Blazer Shining Aura Darkness Blade that Azazel wielded.

Momo Hanakai (花戒 桃 Hanakai Momo^?)

Voiced by: Mikako Komatsu

A second-year student at Kuoh Academy and Sona's Bishop. While she initially has a crush on Kiba, she eventually gains a crush on Saji after the Rating Game against the Gremory Team. In the Rating Game with Occult Research Club, she sacrificed herself to take out Asia so the latter couldn't heal Issei. In Volume 14, she receives from Azazel an artificial Sacred Gear called"Applause Wall" (刹那の絶園（アブローズ・ウォール） Apurōzu Wōru^?).

Reya Kusaka (草下 憐耶 Kusaka Reya^?)

A second-year student at Kuoh Academy and Sona's Bishop. In the Rating Game with the Occult Research Club, she was eliminated by Akeno's Holy Lightning. In Volume 14, she receives from Azazel an artificial Sacred Gear called "Scouting Persona" (怪人達の仮面舞踏会（スカウティング・ペルソナ） Sukautingu Perusona^?)

Ruruko Nimura (仁村 留流子 Nimura Ruruko^?)

A first-year student at Kuoh Academy and Sona's Pawn. Has a crush on Saji. During school she is often seen shadowing him to help and support him with Student Council matters. In the Rating Game with Occult Research Club, she was eliminated by Koneko's senjutsu-infused punch. In Volume 14, she receives from Azazel an artificial Sacred Gear called "Procellarum Phantom" (玉兎と嫦娥（プロセラルム・ファントム） Puroserarumu Fantomu^?).

Loup Garou (ルー・ガルー Rū Garū^?)

Sona's latest Rook, a college student at Kuoh Academy. Nicknamed Rugal (ルガール Rugāru^?) by others. His name (Loup Garou) is the French word for "Werewolf". Tends to start his sentences with ..... like "....Yeah." Appearance is that of a foreigner with grey hair, long bangs, somewhat handsome, and muscular. Eye color is unknown as they couldn't be seen when he was introduced.

Bennia (ベンニーア Bennīa^?)

Sona's latest Knight, a half-human, half-Grim Reaper whose father is an Ultimate-Class Grim Reaper, Orcus. She left the Underworld because she didn't like the ways of Hades and her father. Then went to Sona saying she couldn't stand Hades' current way of doing things and could she become Sona's servant? She wasn't seen as a threat or a spy of Hades because she is a bigOppai Dragon fan so Sona made her a Knight. Since her human side was stronger than her Grim Reaper side this allowed Sona to do so with only one piece. Bennia isn't the Knight candidate that Sona had been considering for awhile, but as she hadn't been able to arrange a meeting with that person the piece was still available. Bennia has long, dark purple hair, golden eyes and looks like a middle schooler agewise. Although whether she really is as old as a human middleschooler (or the equivalent for a Grim Reaper) hasn't been told. Being a Grim Reaper her voice is different and bracketed by 《 》 rather than " ". Unlike other Grim Reapers she has put cute decorations on her scythe and embroidered the inside of her cape with Oppai Dragon. Also, instead of teleporting when the transport circle bursts with light she sinks into it instead. Design on her circles is that of House Sitri.

[edit]Other Students

Matsuda (松田^?)

Voiced by: Yasuaki Takumi

One of Issei's best friends that make up the "Perverted Trio" (変態三人組 Hentai San'nin-gumi^?). Matsuda is a self-proclaimed lolicon, and is a former jock and school sports star. He is jealous of Issei's relationship with the girls of the Occult Research Club, and constantly spreads bad rumors about him. Matsuda's nicknames are "Perverted Baldy" (エロ坊主 Ero-bōzu^?) and "Sexual Harassment Papparazzi (セクハラパパラッチ Sekuhara Paparatchi^?). He does not know that Issei and the Occult Research Club members are Devils. Occasionally mention of him being in a group crops up, where the group's goal is to punish/kill Issei for being so popular with the Occult Club's girls, or figure how to transfer their affection from Issei to them.

Motohama (元浜^?)

Voiced by: Takuro Nakakuni

Another of Issei's best friends that make up the Perverted Trio, who has the ability to calculate a female's body measurements just by looking. Like Matsuda, he is jealous of Issei's relationship with the girls of the Occult Research Club, and constantly spreads bad rumors about him. Motohama's nicknames are "Perverted Glasses" (エロメガネ Ero-megane^?) and "Three Sizes Scouter" (スリーサイズスカウター Surī Saizu Sukautā^?). Like Matsuda, he also does not know that Issei and the Occult Research Club members are Devils. He is also part of the group that hates Issei's recent luck with women and what he might be doing with them.

Aika Kiriyu (桐生 藍華 Kiriyū Aika^?)

Voiced by: Haruka Yamazaki

A bespectacled student and Asia's friend who has the ability to calculate a male's "manhood" size just by looking. She likes to tease Asia about her crush on Issei. One of her hobbies is giving Asia perverted advice (like welcoming Issei home in a naked apron) or false information (like telling Asia bloomers are the ideal Japanese sportswear for dodgeball), which has Issei complimenting and cursing her in his head as his perverted nature is in conflict with his protective instincts.

Murayama (村山^?) and Katase (片瀬^?)

Voiced by: Kaori Ishihara (Murayama) and Yui Ogura (Katase)

Two girls who are members of Kuoh Academy's Girls' Kendō Club, and are anime-exclusive characters. They are often subjected to Issei, Matsuda, and Motohama's lecherous peeping, in which they and the rest of the club retaliate by beating them with their shinai. They are also in the same class as the Perverted Trio.

Kiyome Abe (安倍 清芽 Abe Kiyome^?)

The Captain of Kuoh Academy's Tennis Club who comes from a human family of beast tamers. Initially she is very wary of the Occult Research Club since, as a human, she believed all the rumors of Devils being pure evil, contracts held to the letter with the spirit ground up, and thought they were after her soul. Since she needed to borrow Issei for an unnamed reason, and the Occult Research Club needed a report on monsters ASAP (Rias has to do the report to earn credits at Demon School, if she's ever short she'll have to return to the Underworld, with her servants, and attend Demon School in person.) As Rias did not want to loan Issei and Abe was wary of them, it was decided to have a tennis match where the winner got what they wanted for free, no strings attached. For the match, Abe used a Harpy (lost) and a Lamia (won) for the two singles games and played doubles with Christie against Rias and Issei for the tie-breaker. Christie's freezing breath was hampering Issei's meager skills so he put on Honda (who was as upset as Issei that Yuki-onna weren't beautiful maidens, but yetis) which help Rias and him win. She has a crush on Issei after he helped her break off her engagement.

Tadami Kamo (加茂 忠美 Kamo Tadami^?)

[edit]Angels

[edit]God

God from the Bible (聖書の神 Seisho no Kami^?)

The leader of the Angels who died in the previous war. He is succeeded by the Archangel Michael in maintaining the "system" He left after His death. This was kept secret by the heads of all the factions due to fear of the chaos and increased chances of an attack by a foreign faction (essentially any non-Christian Parthenon such as the Norse Gods, Greek Gods, etc.)

[edit]Seraphim

Michael (ミカエル Mikaeru^?, מִיכָאֵל)

Michael is the leader of the Angels and Seraphim in Heaven, and the only one called "Archangel". He is God's very first creation, one of the Four Great Seraphim, and is the current "God" after the original God died in the war. He appears in Volume 4 of the light novels to give Issei the Holy Sword Ascalon, the Dragon Slayer sword that was wielded by St. George. Like Azazel, he has twelve wings growing from his back, and unlike other Angels whose wings are white, his wings are colored gold, further symbolizing his position as leader. His current goal is to recreate the lost members of Heaven, and has reincarnated Irina and Dulio as his Ace and Joker. His suit in the Brave Saints system is the Suit of Spades.

Gabriel (ガブリエル Gaburieru^?, גַּבְרִיאֵל)

Michael's sister, an Angel who is also a Seraph, one of the guardians of the Throne of Heaven. Also one of the Four Great Seraphim, she is widely known as "Gabriel the Seraph" and has 10 pure white wings. She is the strongest female Angel in Heaven, as well as the most beautiful, and (according to Irina) is also a popular figure in the Underworld. She appears in the side story "Armageddon at Sports Day", where she took part in a sports day event between the three factions. Her suit in the Brave Saints system is the Suit of Hearts.

He is known to be the strongest exorcist ever capable of taking on High-class Devils and monsters alone, and possesses the second-strongest Longinus, "Zenith Tempest" (煌天雷獄（ゼニス・テンペスト） Zenisu Tenpesuto^?, lit. "Prison of Bright Heavenly Thunder"), which have the ability to control the weather as well as its attribute. He is, in fact, so skilled that he is considered as a candidate to become a Seraph. Dulio, however, is known to be a carefree person, and is currently traveling around the world in his quest to savor good cuisines. He appears in Volume 12, freezing up all of Hades' Grim Reapers.

Irina Shido (紫藤 イリナ Shidō Irina^?)

[edit]Fallen Angels/Grigori

[edit]Grigori

Azazel (アザゼル Azazeru^?)

The Governor General of the Fallen Angels with twelve jet black wings and a teacher at Kuoh Academy.

See also: Occult Research Club's Azazel

Shemhazai (シェムハザ Shemuhaza^?, Σεμιαζά)

The Vice Governor General of the Fallen Angels and Grigori. He is Azazel's right-hand man. He has a Devil wife, and is expecting to have a child some time in the future. In Volume 12, Shemhazai became Governor General of the Fallen Angels after Azazel stepped down from his post.

Baraqiel (バラキエル Barakieru^?, Βαρακιήλ)

One of the Cadres of the Fallen Angels and Grigori. A friend of Azazel's and Akeno's father who has the Holy Lightning ability, which was later inherited by his daughter. Baraqiel is protective of his daughter Akeno, and hated Issei due to his misconception on Issei being "a Dragon that devours breasts", which was caused by Azazel who said that as a joke. He met Akeno's mother, Shuri Himejima, after he was injured and Shuri rescued him. In Volume 12, Baraqiel took over Shemhazai's position as Vice Governor General after Shemhazai was promoted to Governor General.

Kokabiel (コカビエル Kokabieru^?, χωβαβιήλ)

One of the Cadres of the Fallen Angels and Grigori. He stole the Excalibur swords in hopes of starting another war.

[edit]Normal Fallen Angels

Raynare (レイナーレ Reināre^?) / Yuma Amano (天野 夕麻 Amano Yūma^?)

Voiced by: Hitomi Nabatame

One of the Fallen Angels and the first antagonist of the series. Raynare disguises herself as a human named Yuma Amano, and becomes Issei's girlfriend in order to get close to him, assess his abilities, and kill him while he is still human, the main reason being the Sacred Gear residing within him poses a threat to the Fallen Angels. However, once resurrected as a Devil, Issei eventually confronts her once again, this time with the life of Asia Argento, a nun he took a liking to, on the line as Raynare prepares to take Asia's powerful Sacred Gear by force. Issei defeats her in their final showdown after activating his true Sacred Gear, which Raynare mistook as a Twice Critical. Before being terminated by Rias, she desperately begged Issei to save her, even going as far as saying she loves him. Ultimately, Issei replies by telling Rias he is at his limit and leaves it to her. Using her Power of Destruction, Rias executes Raynare, leaving nothing behind except for a cloud of black feathers.

Later on in Volume 4, it is revealed by Azazel that Raynare killed Issei out of her own will despite his orders to just keep an eye on him. The surveillence was to make sure his Sacred Gear remained dormant as there was a higher risk of it going out of control or making him go berserk if it awakened while he was still human.

Although dead, Raynare left a permanent mark in Issei's heart, as explained in Volume 10 when Koneko, Asia, and Akeno try to "heal" Issei. She made Issei fear women after he planned his whole first date with Raynare, only to be killed by her and treated terribly by her. She also made him afraid to call girls by their first name (i.e. calling Rias "President (Buchou)" instead of her name), and also made him afraid of being disliked by other girls or rejected if he showed his feelings again. The girls, however, quickly object to this, and Raynare's "curse" is lifted from Issei's heart.

As a Fallen Angel, she can use her wings to fly and has access to light-based weapons, with the spear of light being her preferred weapon. In the anime, her spear has a crimson violet color.

Dohnaseek (ドーナシーク Dōnashīku^?)

Voiced by: Taketora

A Fallen Angel allied with Raynare, dressed in a trenchcoat and fedora. He was the first Fallen Angel to attack Issei after the latter became a Devil. He later fought Rias and Akeno but was terminated by them. As a Fallen Angel, he can use his wings to fly and has access to light-based weapons, with the spear of light being his preferred weapon. In the anime, his spear was a light blue color.

Kalawarner (カラワーナ Karawāna^?)

Voiced by: Kumi Sakuma

[edit]Other Members

Valper Galilei (バルパー・ガリレイ Barupā Garirei^?)

A member of Grigori and the person in charge of the Holy Sword Project, nicknamed the "Genocide Archbishop" (皆殺しの大司教^?). He is extremely intrigued by the Holy Swords, especially the Excalibur. While the project was initially thought to be a failure, it is revealed that the Holy Project was successful but there was a requirement: in order to wield Excalibur, it needed a mass property of light attribute in the human body. Because of this, Valper removed the light attribute from the candidates (followed by him terminating them as they were useless as candidates) to transfer it to someone that has a capacity to hold it to wield the Holy Swords. Due to this, he was excommunicated from the Church, and sided with the Fallen Angels to exact his revenge. He was later killed by Kokabiel after learning of the original God's death in the war.

Slash Dog (刃狗（スラッシュドッグ） Surasshu Doggu^?)

A man who possesses the Longinus "Canis Lycaon" (黒刃の狗神（ケイネス・リュカオン） Keinesu Ryukaon^?, lit. "God of Dogs with The Black Blade") and works for the Fallen Angels. According to Azazel, he does not get along with Vali. His name comes from one of Ishibumi's previous works, SLASH/DOG.

[edit]The Four Maous

Sirzechs Lucifer (サーゼクス・ルシファー Sāzekusu Rushifā^?)

Voiced by: Junichi Suwabe

Formerly known as Sirzechs Gremory (サーゼクス・グレモリー Sāzekusu Guremorī^?) and also known as the "Crimson Satan" (紅髪の魔王（クリムゾン・サタン） Kurimuzon Satan^?, lit. "Crimson-Haired Satan"), Sirzechs is the leader of the Devils, the current Maou with the title of "Lucifer", and Rias' older brother. Sirzechs is the most powerful of the Four Maous and is much more powerful than the former Lucifer. This is partially through inheriting the Gremory's magic talent and the Baels' Power of Destruction. He is a wizard-technique type where he uses his Power of Destruction in forms of several orbs that he can control at will. When he focuses and concentrates strongly he can use a move he calls "Ruin the Extinct" (滅殺の魔弾(ルイン・ザ・エクスティンクト) Ruin za Ekusutinkuto^?, lit. "Magical Bullets of Annihilation") which only destroys his target. This is shown once when he had a sphere enter Diodora's mouth and destroy the snake that was in his stomach, without causing any damage to Diodora himself. As stated by Azazel, the reason why Sirzechs was chosen as Maou is mainly due to his overwhelming ability to nullify magic. However, Milicas comments during his visit to the Gremory Household that Grayfia is the strongest member of the Lucifer team (most likely because he doesn't know about Sirzechs 'other' form.)

In Volume 12, Sirzechs goes into the front lines to protect the Underworld, where he revealed his "true form" in which he converts himself into the Power of Destruction called the "Human-Shaped Aura of Destruction" (人型に浮かび上がる滅びのオーラ^?) that destroys everything regardless of his will. According to Azazel, Sirzechs compresses his demonic powers to the size of a human shape, and has demonic powers that are ten times more powerful than the original Lucifer. His father also mentions to Azazel that he is a Super Devil and a mutation of a Devil, possibly so different that it might be a mistake to even call him a Devil. Because of this, being a Maou was the only role for him.

He is Grayfia's husband and father of their son, Milicas Gremory.

Serafall Leviathan (セラフォルー・レヴィアタン Seraforū Revaiatan^?)

Formerly known as Serafall Sitri (セラフォルー・シトリー Seraforū Shitorī^?), she is Sona's older sister. She is a cosplayer who is always seen wearing a magical girl dress, saying to others that they are her normal clothes. This prompts Issei to coin her the nickname "Maou Shoujo" (魔王少女 MaŌ Shōjo^?, lit. "Satan Girl"). She has a deep sister complex, going as far as threatening to attack Heaven for not being informed of the school's class observation by her little sister. Adding to her childlike personality, she calls Sona "So-tan" (ソーたん Sō-tan^?) and Sirzechs (and everyone else) "Sirzechs-chan". She is the Maou in charge of foreign affairs (other factions). Coming from the Sitri Clan, Serafall is highly skilled in water-based magic while specializing in ice-based magic, and has an attack called "Celsius Cross Trigger" ((零と雫の霧雪(セルシウス・クロス・トリガー) Serushiusu Kurosu Torigā^?). Despite the childlike attitude she definitely has the power to hold the position of Maou since she was able to take out a Bandersnatch all by herself. She also has her own show called "Levi-tan" in competition with the Oppai Dragon show based on Issei.

Ajuka Beelzebub (アジュカ・ベルゼブブ Ajuka Beruzebubu^?)

Formerly known as Ajuka Astaroth (アジュカ・アスタロト Ajuka Asutaroto^?), he is Diodora's older brother and the creator of the Evil Pieces system and Rating Game. Ajuka is the only Devil that can rival Sirzechs in strength. He remodeled Issei's Evil Piece that gave him the ability to activate Illegal Move Trident. Ajuka has a special ability called the Kankara Formula (覇軍の方程式（カンカラー・フォーミュラ） Kankarā Fōmyura^?, lit. "Equation of Military Supremacy"), which allows him to turn every phenomenon into equations and formulas and control it to make it into a special move of his own by increasing its speed and power. Ajuka is extremely powerful, as revealed in Volume 12 when he finishes off some of the servants of the Old Maou Faction who attacked him by turning their own powers against them, and it was mentioned that of the current Maous, only he and Sirzechs surpass the original ones.

He is also a Super Devil and mutation of a Devil like Sirzechs.

Fallbium Asmodeus (ファルビウム・アスモデウス Farubiumu Asumodeusu^?)

Formerly known as Falbium Glasya-Labolas (ファルビウム・グラシャラボラス Farubiumu Gurasha-Raborasu^?), Asmodeus is known for being a great strategist and has gathered many talented subordinates. As such, he is the one maintaining military affairs in the Underworld. However, he is also known to be lazy and constantly leaves his work to his subordinates.

[edit]Gremory Family

Lord Gremory (グレモリー卿 Guremorī-kyō^?)

The father of Sirzechs and Rias, Grayfia's father-in-law, and Milikas' grandfather. The current head of the Gremory Family, a middle-aged man with red hair. Due to his greed for wanting more pure-blooded Devil grandchildren, he tried to push Rias' marraige to Riser early.

Venelana Gremory (ヴェネラナ・グレモリー Venerana Guremorī^?)

The mother of Sirzechs and Rias, Grayfia's mother-in-law, and Milikas' grandmother. Originally from the Bael Family, she is known as the Brunette Madame the Extinct (亜麻髪の絶滅淑女（あまがみのマダム・ザ・エクスティンクト） Amagami no Madamu za Ekusutinkuto^?, lit. "Brown-Haired Lady of Extinction"). She bears a striking resemblance to her daughter, albeit with brown hair. This is mainly due to genetics and partially due to her using demonic powers to consistently match her age with that of Rias' for some personal reason. As a descendant of the Bael family, she inherited her Powers of Destruction, which were also passed on to both her children, Rias and Sirzechs. She can seamlessly switch her demeanor from that of a proper, young noble lady to that of the head Lady of the Gremory Family.

Grayfia Lucifuge (グレイフィア・ルキフグス Gureifia Rukifugusu^?)

Voiced by: Saori Seto

The maid of the Gremory Family, Sirzerch's Queen and wife, and the mother of Milikas Gremory. Grayfia comes from the House of Lucifuge, a family of pure-blooded Devils from the Extra Demons whose family served under the original Lucifer. She is a Devil on par with the Four Maous, and is known as the "Strongest Queen". She once challenged Serafall for the spot of Leviathan. She is nicknamed the Silver-Haired Queen of Devourer (銀髪の殲滅女王（ぎんぱつのクィーン・オブ・デイバウア） Ginpatsu no Kwīn obu Deibaua^?, lit. "Silver-Haired Queen of Annihilation") and uses ice-based magic. For some reason, she does not appreciate having family titles or ties to the Gremory family mentioned while a maid. As a maid, she always acts in a cold, calm, and professional manner with extremely rare instances of emotions showing in her face or voice. This is because when she is a maid she wants to do it completely, which has resulted in her having a relationship with the Gremory family as a maid. One of the few instances she showed emotion was in Volume 2 during her conversation with Issei just before she gave him the magic circle to crash Riser's engagement party and release a griffin to ride home on. She acts and expects to be treated with the difference between a noble and servant, although she still reserves the right to chastise Sirzechs and Millicas if they act improper or acknowledge her as part of the family and not a maid or Sirzech's Queen. She enjoys doing small tasks and housework and it seems easier to move around doing simple matters as a maid than the wife of a Maou. This may be her solution to the similar issue Sona had of wanting to help Rias with things (like Akeno's and Koneko's difficulties accepting their Fallen Angel and Nekomata heritages) but unable to do so due to restrictions of being a proper, high-class, and noble Devil.

Every now and then, she will take a day off as a maid and become a high-class lady who is to be acknowledged as a noble lady of the Gremory Family, Sirzech's wife and Rias' older sister. While maintaining the proper demeanor of a noble lady, she does allow emotions to show on her face and is less reserved around others. So far, she has only been seen to take a day off once in the Extra Life chapter of Volume 8 in the light novels. During that chapter, she acted more friendly with everyone and even showed embarrassment over Akeno saying her (Grayfia's) romance with Sirzechs is a legend among young, female devils and Koneko mentioning their courtship had been made into a play.

Millicas Gremory (ミリキャス・グレモリー Mirikyasu Guremorī^?)

The son of Sirzechs Lucifer and Grayfia Lucifuge and Rias's nephew. Although his father is Lucifer of the Four Maous, it is not applied to Millicas, as it is required only for Sirzechs, thus Millicas' family name is Gremory and is next-in-line after Rias as family head. In the Volume 13 short story "The Worries of the Next, Next Heir" (which took place after Volume 12), it is shown that he has inherited Sirzechs' Power of Destruction when he had a training match with Issei during his stay at Issei's house. It is still unknown if he inherited any powers of the Lucifuge family from Grayfia.

Enku (炎駒^?)

Sirzechs' Pawn. A Chinese Qilin that reincarnated in a Devil. He first appears in Volume 8 as Grayfia's escort and also to use the Qilin ability of bringing good luck to the Hyodo residence. He appears again in Volume 12 alongside Sirzechs' peerage to battle the Jabberwocky.

Souji Okita (沖田 総司 Okita Sōji^?)

Sirzechs' Knight. He is the captain of the first unit of the Shinsengumi, a special police force in Kyoto during the late shogunate period. He was one of the best swordsmen of the Shinsengumi, along with Hajime Saito and Shinpachi Nagakura. He is Yuto's swordsmaster, and is capable of moving at God-like speeds that far surpasses that of Yuto. He is a Knight who consumed both pieces of it. He appears in Volume 12 with the rest of Sirzechs' peerage, fighting the Jabberwocky.

Surtr Second (スルト・セカンド Suruto Sekando^?)

The ultimate Rook. He is the clone of Surtr from Norse Mythology. He is described to be a very huge man with massive muscles. The Norse Gods made a clone of Surtr, but it went berserk so the Norse Gods abandoned him. Sirzechs later made him into his servant by using his Mutation Rook piece. Since he is a clone, he was named the Second. If he was able to use his power properly, it is said that he could have defeated Jabberwocky. His flame is said to burn everything. He is the one who gave Issei his familiar, the living flying Norse ship Skithblathnir.

Bahamut (バハムート Bahamūto^?)

Sirzechs' Rook, known as the Glowing Fish of the Deep Sea (深海の光魚 Shinkai no Kōgyo^?). A sacred beast that is mainly used for transport and also to annihilate grunts.

MacGregor Mathers (マグレガー・メイザース Maguregā Meizāsu^?)

Sirzechs' Bishop, a master magician capable of using all kinds of magic. He is one of the founders of modern magic association Golden Dawn (黄金の夜明け（ゴールデンドーン） Gōruden Dōn^?). He is a Bishop who consumed both pieces of it.

Beowulf (ベオウルフ Beōrufu^?)

Sirzechs' Pawn who is the descendant of the hero Beowulf. He is said to be in the top 5 Pawns of the Underworld. He became Sirzechs' servant after battling him and losing against him, and he is picked on by the rest of Sirzechs' servants and is treated like a lackey.

[edit]Phenex Family

Lord Phenex (フェニックス卿 Fenikkusu-kyō^?)

Riser's father and current head of the Phenex Family. He talked with Rias' father after the defeat of his son at the hand of Issei, feeling pleased because it taught Riser that the Phenex Family's power of immortality is not absolute.

Lady Phenex

The matrarch of the Phenex Family who appeared in Volume 10. She asked Issei and Rias to take care of Ravel, and told Issei that her daughter is currently a "free" Bishop.

Ruval Phenex (ルヴァル・フェニックス Ruvuaru Fenikkusu^?)

The eldest son of the Phenex family and next heir to the house. He is one of the top ten rankers in the Rating Game and is soon to be promoted as an Ultimate-Class Devil. He appears in Volume 12 along with Riser to cheer his sister and the Gremory Team, who were in shock at Issei's death, before leaving to fight against the monsters created by Annihilation Maker. While there, he also dropped off a few bottles of Phoenix Tears to help those wounded fighting the Khaos Brigade.

Riser Phenex (ライザー・フェニックス Raizā Fenikkusu^?)

Voiced by: Takehito Koyasu

Introduced as Rias' fiancé (which changes when his ulterior motives are revealed and Rias' disgust of him), Riser is a high-ranking Devil and the third son of the Phenex Family. Because the Phenex Family has inherent powers that are equivalent of the legendary creature, Phoenix (which the family's name is also derived from), Riser has inherited the family ability that reflects those of the legendary bird, where he can regenerate from almost any injuries immediately and is practically impossible to defeat. It is said that the Phenex Family's tears (known as Phoenix Tears) sell for a high price because of its powerful healing abilities, resulting in the Phenex Family's immense wealth. As a high-ranking Devil, Riser has his own group of a full fifteen servants, all consisting of females (including his sister Ravel), something which Issei both looks up to and envies at the same time, and he sees no problem in making out with his queen Yubelluna and his other girls in front of others, especially Rias and Issei. In the manga, it is revealed that he had selected them to fill roles of several fetishes. For example, Ravel was selected to fill the role of a tsundere little sister. After being defeated by Issei, Riser fell into a slump and developed a fear of Dragons. He recovered from his slump in Volume 10 of the light novels, giving advice to Rias on Rating Games and warning Issei that should he mistreat his sister, he will burn him to a crisp. He reappears in Volume 12 alongside his brother to cheer up his sister and the Gremory Team before leaving to fight alongside his brother.

Ravel Phenex (レイヴェル・フェニックス Reiveru Fenikkusu^?)

Riser's younger sister and former Bishop.

See also: Occult Research Club's Ravel Phenex

Yubelluna (ユーベルーナ Yūberūna^?)

Voiced by: Kotomi Yamakawa

Riser's Queen and the strongest member of his peerage, also known as the "Bomb Queen" (爆弾王妃（ボム・クイーン） Bomu Kuīn^?) due to her powerful fire magic that looks like a bomb explosion when hitting the target. She defeated Koneko, Akeno (albeit with the use of the Phoenix Tears), and Yuto at the Rating Game between Rias and Riser. She is Riser's favorite piece, as he often makes out with her and fondles her. Like many of the other pieces, she adores Riser and wants to receive his attention. As such, she and the others do not care about the circumstances or what he does to receive that attention, and live to fulfill his every desire.

Karlamine (カーラマイン Kāramain^?)

Voiced by: Hitomi Harada

Riser's Knight dressed in armor and armed with a sword and dagger. Karlamine is a expert swordswoman and is capable of using fire and wind-based attacks and is known as the Knight of Flames (炎の騎士 Honō no Kishi^?). According to Ravel, she is a sword maniac like Yuto with a similar sense of honor, as she was unhappy that her fellow pieces were used as sacrificial pieces but endures it as it was at Riser's command. She was able to fight on par with Yuto before Issei gains a new ability in the form of the Boosted Gear Gift, where she is defeated by their combination attack.

Siris (シーリス Shīrisu^?)

Voiced by: Manami Suda

Riser's Knight. Wields a giant broadsword that can cause strong winds such as shock waves. Defeated by the combination attack of Issei and Yuto.

Isabela (イザベラ Izabera^?)

Voiced by: Harumi Sakurai

Riser's Rook. A woman who wears a mask on the right side of her face. She was incapacitated by Issei's Dress Break before being defeated by Issei's Dragon Shot. Unlike Karlamine, she considers honor to be fulfilling Riser's wishes by any means necessary and fair play optional. She reappears in Volume 5 as Ravel's escort during the Young Devils Gathering.

Mira (ミラ^?)

Voiced by: Yuka Saitō

Riser's Pawn. As a show of power, Riser had her hurt Issei for insulting him and added insult to injury by commenting that despite Mira being his weakest piece, she was able to easily beat Issei. She later fights Issei again at their masters' Rating Game, where she became one of the first victims of Issei's Dress Break before being completely taken out of the game by Akeno.

[edit]Bael Family

Lord Bael

The current head of the Bael Family known as the "Great King" and Sairaorg's father. He was disappointed at Sairaorg for not inheriting the Baels' Power of Destruction. Has two wives.

Misla Bael (ミスラ・バアル Misura Bāru^?)

The mother of Sairaorg, originally from the Vapula Family (ウァプラ家 Vapura Ke^?). She was in a comatose state a few years prior to the story. The Bael Family considered her and Sairaorg as failures because of Sairaorg not inheriting the Power of Destruction. Before her coma, she made Sairaorg promise her that he will become stronger than anyone, which later became Sairaorg's drive to become a Maou. She wakes up from her coma at the end of Volume 10.

Sairaorg Bael (サイラオーグ・バアル Sairaōgu Bāru^?)

Sairaorg Bael is the next heir of Bael Family and Rias' cousin. Sairaorg did not inherit the Power of Destruction, whom Rias and his brother inherit from their mother, who was from the Bael Family. Because of this that time, his younger brother is the one who has been decided to become the heir of the Bael Family. His mother told him to become strong in different ways, where Sairaorg proceeded to train his body with martial arts to its utmost limits to become powerful. Because of this, he defeated his younger brother, making him the next heir, but due to this, his younger brother plans to assassinate him. Sairoarg desires to become one of the four Maous to prove himself as well as to prevent others from feeling the same pain he felt.

Appearing in Volume 5 during the Young Devils Gathering, he fought against Zephyrdor Glasya-Labolas in a Rating Game which he and his team won predominately. He faces Rias in a Rating Game in Volume 10, defeating Yuto, Xenovia and Rossweisse before he and his Pawn, Regulus, faced off against Rias and Issei where he manages to overwhelm Issei until the latter achieved his Cardinal Crimson Promotion, as both men engaged in a fist fight which Issei won. He later fought against Heracles in Volume 12 and easily defeated the giant.

Due to the extreme training to his body, he gained an enormous amount of toki and is a martial arts master, and can use the Balance Breaker armor of "Regulus Nemea" (獅子王の戦斧（レグルス・ネメア） Regurusu Nemea^?, lit. "Axe of the Lion King"), "Regulus Rey Leather Rex" (獅子王の剛皮（レグルス・レイ・レザー・レックス） Regurusu Rei Rezā Rekkusu^?, lit.

Regulus (レグルス Regurusu^?)

Sairaorg's Pawn, the Nemean Lion residing in the Longinus Regulus Nemea. It materialized itself after its previous host died killing the culprit who killed its host. It was reincarnated by Sairaorg into a Devil through the use of seven Pawns, and can fuse with its master to attain its Balance Breaker armor. It is extremely loyal to Sairaorg.

Kuisha Abaddon (クイーシャ・アバドン Kuīsha Abadon^?)

Sairaorg's Queen who came from the House of Abaddon, one of the Extra Demons who are specialized in the Power of Hole (穴（ホール） Hōru^?), which creates a hole that expands and retracts according to the user's will and is able to absorb attacks and reflect them back as they chooses. Aside from her Power of Hole abilities, She also specializes in using elemental magic. She defeated Akeno at their Rating Game after sucking in Akeno's Holy Lightning and shooting the holy powers back at the latter but lost to Issei (in reality, Sairaorg forced Kuisha to retire to prevent her from getting killed by an enraged Issei).

It is a horse that is said to be hard to ride and it will kick and kill any of those it doesn't like, including their master. He lost to Yuto in the Rating Game between Sairaorg and Rias.

She faced Issei in the Young Devils Tournament, and used a strategy formulated by Sairaorg to counter Issei's Dress Break and Bilingual by stripping in front of him while having her breasts tell Issei what she will be taking off next, and nearly succeeded before she was blasted by Issei's Dragon Shot for taking off her panties instead of her bra (which was a serious deal for him).

[edit]Stray Devils

Viser (バイサー Baisā^?)

Voiced by: Kaoru Mizuhara

A Stray Devil terminated by Rias and her peerage, bearing a Centaur-like appearance.

Gentleman Alchemist (錬金術師の紳士 Renkinjutsu-shi no Shinshi^?)

Voiced by: Itaru Yamamoto

An unnamed Stray Devil who is an anime-exclusive character in the OVA episode "I'm Harvesting Breasts!" He was captured by the Occult Research Club and interrogated by Grayfia in the Underworld. Before being killed, he revealed that he created the Breast Chimera so that every flat-chested girl in the world would have large breasts.

Breast Chimera

A creation of the Gentleman Alchemist and the main antagonist of the OVA episode "I'm Harvesting Breasts!" It is a plant with a Dragon-like features, and has the ability to produce breast-like fruits by feeding off spiritual energy from women's breasts, specifically the much bigger ones like Rias and Akeno's.

The heir to the House of Astaroth and Ajuka's younger brother. He is the Devil that caused Asia's excommunication from the Church and accusation of her being a heretic. After he revealed that he is an ally of the Khaos Brigade, it is further revealed by Freed that Diodora has a nun fetish and that all his servants are nuns and maidens that he acquired all over the world. That he'd seduce them away from the Church and then rape them, while recording it, when they were under his control. Seeing their complete despair and hopelessness makes it all the more enjoyable for him. He purposely injured himself so Asia, being extremely kind, would heal him so she'd get kicked out of the Church (Healing ability that can heal Fallen Angels and Devils is considered blasphemy) in order to get an opportunity to make her his servant. Originally he planned to 'rescue' Asia after Raynalle killed her so he'd have the excuse to turn her into a Devil while appearing to be the 'good guy.' He depises Issei for, in his terms, "stealing Asia from him", and attempts to kill him, but was defeated by the latter before Shalba Beelzebub fatally shot him with a light weapon.

Seekvaira Agares (シーグヴァイラ・アガレス Shīguvarira Agaresu^?)

In Volume 12, Indra sends the majority of the Hero Faction to the Realm of the Dead after taking all of their Longinus, claiming they have lost their value before retreating. In Volume 14, it is revealed that Indra is gathering forces to combat Shiva the God of Destruction, which is why he aligned himself with the Hero Faction and Hades.

[edit]Khaos Brigade

[edit]Vali Team

Vali Lucifer (ヴァーリ・ルシファー Vāri Rushifā^?)

The descendant of Lucifer and possessor of the Vanishing Dragon Albion. Vali is the great-grandson of the former Maou and a human woman. He was abandoned by his parents who thought he was a monster and was eventually picked up by Azazel who raised and trained him. He later betrays Azazel during the peace conference between the three factions and joins the Khaos Brigade, where he leads his own team, the Vali Team.

Vali wants to defeat Great Red in order to become the strongest existence. A battle maniac, Vali can use the Juggernaut Mode by not consuming his lifespan, instead using his enormous demonic energy. However, he can only maintain his sanity for a few minutes; any longer will make him go berserk. He is a powerful fighter who wields the Sacred Gear "Divine Dividing" (白龍皇の光翼（ディバイン・ディバイディング） Dibain Dibaidingu^?, lit. "White Dragon Emperor's Light Wings"), which holds the spirit of the Vanishing Dragon Albion. Divine Dividing works in the opposite way of Issei's Boosted Gear, in which it halves the opponent's power every ten seconds after coming into contact with them. Vali can also add the opponent's halved power to his own, which contributed to the defeat of the Fallen Angel Kokabiel during his introductory chapter. Like Issei, he also has a Balance Breaker armor called Divine Dividing Scale Mail (白龍皇の鎧（ディバイン・ディバイディング・スケイルメイル） Dibain Dibaidingu Sukeiru Meiru^?, lit. "Armor of the White Dragon Emperor"), which is similar to Issei's Scale Mail aside from it being white and having Dragon wings. The Divine Dividing also has the ability to halve the size of objects and living beings through the use of its "Half Dimension".

In Volume 12, Vali uses a new form called the Empireo Juggernaut Overdrive (白銀の極覇龍（エンピレオ・ジャガーノート・オーバードライブ） Enpireo Jagānōto Ōbādoraibu^?, lit. Silver Dragon Pole of Supremacy), which changes the color of his armor to silver. Like Issei's Cardinal Crimson Promotion, it does not consume his life. In this state, Vali can use an enhanced version of Half Dimension called "Compression Divider", which halves a specific target constantly until they vanish from existence.

Arthur Pendragon (アーサー・ペンドラゴン Āsā Pendoragon^?)

A man who is the descendant of the Legendary King of Camelot, King Arthur. He is one of the two best swordsmen in the Khaos Brigade, earning the nickname "The Strongest Holy Sword User" (最強の聖剣使い Saikyō no Seikentsukai^?). He is also a natural-born Holy Sword user like Xenovia. He wields one of the seven Excaliburs, "Excalibur Ruler" (支配の聖剣（エクスカリバー・ルーラー） Ekusukaribā Rūrā^?), the strongest Excalibur fragment, along with the Holy King Sword Collbrande (聖王剣コールブランド SeiŌken Kōruburando^?), the Sword in the Stone and the most powerful Holy Sword in existence. Arthur used the Excalibur Ruler to control Fenrir. In Volume 11, Le Fay gives the Excalibur Ruler to Irina after Arthur abandons the sword, as Fenrir no longer needs to be controlled by it. In Volume 12, after raiding the Realm of the Dead, killing many of Hades' Grim Reapers along with his team-mates, he confronts Yuto Kiba, challenging him after deeming him to be a worthy opponent for his Holy King Sword, telling Yuto that he will fight him when Vali fights Issei.

Le Fay Pendragon (ルフェイ・ペンドラゴン Rufei Pendoragon^?)

Arthur's sister who is the descendant of Morgan le Fay. She is a witch who summons Gogmagog in battle. She is a huge fan of Issei's show. In Volume 14, she moves to the Hyodo Residence as a semi-permanent residence.

Bikou (美猴 Bikō^?)

The descendant of Sun Wukong and the current Monkey King. He likes to make fun of Issei and Rias, coining the nicknames "Oppai Dragon" (おっぱいドラゴン Oppai Doragon^?, lit. "Breast Dragon") for Issei and "Switch Princess" (スイッチ姫 Suitchi Hime^?) for Rias, which he would constantly use to address them (he even said he was proud of being the one to give two huge celebrities their nicknames). He is a Senjutsu user like Kuroka and Koneko, and like Vali, he is also a battle maniac. He also has his ancestor's legendary golden staff, the Nyoi-bo (如意棒 lit. "Mind Stick"^?) and golden cloud, Kinto-un (筋斗雲 lit. "Somersault Cloud"^?). Bikou is extremely fearful of his ancestor, the original Sun Wukong and first Monkey King, claiming that he is a total monster despite his age.

Kuroka (黒歌^?)

Koneko's older sister and a Nekomata who became an SS-class Stray Devil after killing her previous master. Despite the fact that Koneko hates her for what she had done, she still loves her sister dearly, and is willing to use her body to protect her sister from getting hurt. She wants to bear the child of one of the Heavenly Dragons since Vali rejected her, hence why she has turned her eyes towards Issei. In Volume 11 of the light novels, it was revealed that Kuroka did not kill her previous master by becoming drunk on power from absorbing too much malice through Senjutsu but to protect her sister. Apparently her previous master was a power-hungry person who would make even his blood relatives go through crazy power-ups and experiments. Becoming interested in testing the limits of power of a Nekomata, he intended to use Koneko as a test subject. While Kuroka did not mind him using his servants as test subjects (or herself), using his servants' family (namely Koneko) was beyond the pale, especially since Koneko was extremely young at the time and her powers were still unstable. As a result, the experiments would have either permanently made her powers go berserk, driven her insane, or have killed her.

Her previous position as a Devil is a Bishop, and consumed both pieces of it. She occasionally ends her sentences with Nya (にゃ^?), as if mimicking a cat's meow. She is the only major Vali Team member to not originate from a hero. Towards the end of Volume 11, she offers to teach Senjutsu and the Youjutsu of the Nekomata to Koneko who accepts, and later moves to the Hyodo Residence in Volume 14 as a semi-permanent resident.

Fenrir (フェンリル Fenriru^?)

Originally Loki's pet and son, a giant wolf with powerful fangs and claws that can kill God, Maou, and even a Dragon. Having God-like speed, Fenrir is considered to be one of the most dangerous beasts in the world rivaling the Two Heavenly Dragons, and is nicknamed the God-Devouring Wolf (神喰狼 Kamijiki Ōkami^?). He is defeated by Vali and subjected by Arthur's Excalibur Ruler. As of Volume 11, Fenrir no longer needs to be controlled using Excalibur Ruler, but its abilities are reduced. He has taken a liking to Le Fay, and is often seen with her.

Fenrir has two sons: Sköll (スコル Sukoru^?) and Hati Hróðvitnisson (ハティ Hati^?).

Gogmagog (ゴグマゴグ Gogumagog^?)

A group of golems that were used as weapons of mass destruction created by the ancient God but all the Gogmagogs were abandoned in the Dimensional Gap. After hearing Ophis mentioning about a moving Gogmagog, Vali went to search for it to pick it up. He then gives it to Le Fay Pendragon.

[edit]Old Maou Faction

Shalba Beelzebub (シャルバ・ベルゼブブ Sharuba Beruzebubu^?)

The descendant of Beelzebub. He and the other descendants of the Maous (except Vali) believe that the current Devil system is mistaken and seeks to change it. He forcefully made Issei activate his Juggernaut Drive and was beaten because of it. He was the last remaining of the Old Maou Faction until Volume 11 of the light novels, where he fought against Issei and was terminated by him but was successful in placing Samael's curse on Issei, causing his death.

Katerea Leviathan (カテレア・レヴィアタン Katerea Reviatan^?)

The descendant of Leviathan. She fought against Azazel during the peace treaty between the three factions and manages to make Azazel cut off his own hand but is still defeated by Azazel.

The descendant of Asmodeus who fought against Sirzechs, but was killed by the latter.

Euclid Lucifuge (ユーグリット・ルキフグス Yūguritto Rukifugusu^?)

Grayfia's younger brother who leads Grendel into attacking Kuoh Academy. Appears to have a disdain for his sister.

[edit]Hero Faction

Cao Cao (曹操 Sōsō^?)

Cao Cao is the descendant of Cao Cao from the Chinese novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the leader of the Hero Faction. Like his ancestor, he has the eyes to find people with good potential. Cao Cao is a very charismatic person, as he was able to convince many Sacred Gear users to join the Hero Faction. He also believes that it is the responsibility as a descendant of a hero to destroy beings like Devils, Fallen Angels and Dragons that are threats to humans.

He is a calculative and observant person, as he studies and research on his enemy before he battles them so he can read their movement and attacks. In Volume 9 he lost one of his eyes to Issei's attack, and later replaces the lost eye with Medusa's eye, granting him the ability to turn anything to stone. He is a technique-type who has polished his technique to utmost perfection. Because he is a human, he is physically weaker then Issei and Vali, yet in Volume 11 he singlehandedly takes down the Gremory and Vali groups while protecting Georg and Samael, which results in Vali calling him the "strongest human".

His Sacred Gear is the True Longinus (黄昏の聖槍（トウルー・ロンギヌス） Tōrū Ronginusu^?, lit. "Holy Spear of the Setting Sun"), the ultimate Longinus and the same spear that St. Longinus used to kill Jesus Christ. His Balance Breaker, "Polar Night Longinus Chakra Valdine" (極夜なる天輪聖王の輝廻槍(ポーラーナイト・ロンギヌス・チャクラヴァルティン） Pōrā Naito Ronginusu Chakura Varudin^?, lit. "Polar Night Sky Ring Becomes Holy King’s Bright Rotation Spear"), is a sub-species that is much stronger than the actual Balance Breaker of the True Longinus, "True Longinus Geta Demelung" (真冥白夜の聖槍（トウルー・ロンギヌス・ゲッターデメルング） Tōrū Ronginusu Getā Demerungu^?, lit. "Holy Spear of the Pure White Night"). His Balance Breaker creates seven bowl-sized orbs called the Seven Treasures (七宝 Shippo^?), each having a different ability. The True Longinus also has a forbidden form called the"Truth Edea" (覇輝（トゥルース・イデア Turūsu Idea^?, lit. "Brightness of Supremacy"), which is similar to the Juggernaut Drive.

Originally from the Khaos Brigade, Cao Cao betrayed them when he stole Ophis, their leader's, power and sided with Hades, the God from the Realm of the Dead, in an attempt to destroy both the Devils and Fallen Angels. After losing to Issei in Volume 12, Cao Cao, Georg and Leonardo was sent to the Realm of the Dead after having their Longinus confiscated by Indra.

Georg (ゲオルク Georugu^?)

Georg is the descendant of Georg Faust, the person who made a pact with the legendary Devil Mephistopheles, and Cao Cao's right-hand man. He possesses the Longinus "Dimension Lost"(絶霧（ディメンジョン・ロスト） Dimenshon Rosuto^?, lit. "Fog of Extinction"), a barrier-type Longinus that is listed among the top four Longinus. Though it has no offensive abilities, once the mist reaches the scale of countries, it can transfer an entire country and its people into the Dimensional Gap to be destroyed. The Balance Breaker of Dimension Lost, "Dimension Create" (霧の中の理想郷（ディメンション・クリエイト） Dimenshon Kurieito^?, lit. "Utopia of Mist"), allows the user to use the mist to create a barrier and trap the user's opponents in a different dimension. Aside from the Dimension Lost, Georg is a magician capable of a diverse array of spells, ranging from Norse magic, demonic spells, Fallen Angel spells, black magic, white magic, fairy magic, and the Dragon Gate magic circle. He was sent into the Realm of the Dead along with Cao Cao and Leonardo by Indra in Volume 12.

Leonardo (レオナルド Reonarudo^?)

A boy who wields the Longinus "Annihilation Maker" (魔獣創造（アナイアレイション・メーカー） Anaiareishon Mēkā^?, lit. "Creation of the Demonic Beast"), which is also listed among the top four strongest Longinus and it has the ability to create any monster its wielder can imagine; however he has yet to fully master it. In Volume 11, he gets kidnapped by Shalba and was brainwashed by the latter into creating 13 gigantic monsters through its sub-species Balance Breaker, "Bandersnatch and Jabberwocky" (破滅の覇獣鬼（バンダースナッチ・アンド・ジャバウォッキー） Bandāsunatchi ando Jabawokkī^?), to attack the Underworld. As with Kuroka of the Vali Team, he is the only major Hero Faction member to not originate from a hero. He was sent into the Realm of the Dead along with Cao Cao and Georg by Indra in Volume 12.

Siegfried (ジークフリート Jīkufurīdo^?)

Siegfried is the descendant of Siegfried, the legendary Dragon-slaying hero in Nibelungenlied. He is the one of the top two swordsmen of the Khaos Brigade alongside Arthur Pendragon of the Vali Team, and is nicknamed "The Demon Sword User" (魔剣使い Makentsukai^?) and the "Demonic Emperor". In the past, Siegfried worked for the Orthodox Church and is considered the best swordsman after Dulio, bearing the nickname "Chaos-Edge Sieg" (魔剣（カオスエッジ）ジーク Kaosu Ejji Jīku^?), but he eventually left the Church and joined the Hero Faction.

His Sacred Gear is "Twice Critical" (龍の手（トウワイス・クリティカル） Tōwaisu Kuritikaru^?, lit. "Hand of the Dragon"), a common Sacred Gear and the Sacred Gear Raynare mistook Issei to have possessed. Since it is a sub-species, instead of a gauntlet, it creates a third Dragon Arm on Seigfried's back and doubles his power. Its Balance Breaker, "Chaos Edge Asura Ravage" (阿修羅と魔龍の宴（カオスエッジ・アスラ・レヴィッジ） Kaosu Ejji Asura Revijji^?, lit. "Feast of Asura and the Demonic Dragon"), allows him to have four Dragon Arms growing out from his back, with his power doubling for each. As a result, he has six Arms in total (including his real arms) in his Balance Breaker form. He has all five Demon Swords – Gram, Balmung, Nothung, Tyrfing, and Dáinsleif – and one Light Sword in his possession.

He fights Kiba and Xenovia by himself and defeats them with ease in Volume 9. In Volume 11, he has a rematch with Kiba, resulting with the latter cutting off one of his Dragon Arms. In Volume 12, he fought against Yuto for the third and final time, injecting the blood of the original Maou which transforms his body into a monsterous spider while fusing with his Demon Swords. He eventually lost to the latter after Gram left him and chooses Yuto as their new wielder, corroding into dust after his defeat.

Jeanne (ジャンヌ Jan'nu^?)

A beautiful blonde girl who carries the spirit of the Maiden of Orleans, Joan of Arc. She has a cheerful personality and likes to call people nicknames, such as calling Siegfried "Sieg-kun" and Irina "Angel-chan". She defeats Irina in Volume 9. In Volume 12, Jeanne faced off against Irina (for the second time), Akeno and Xenovia, taking the children of the Underworld hostage after feeling at a disadvantage. The situation was reversed by the returning Issei who saved the children, forcing Jeanne to use the same doping used by Siegfried, fusing with her Sacred Gear which creates a Holy Sword Armor, but was still defeated by Issei who simply uses his Dress Break to destroy the armor and shoots a Dragon Shot. She is captured after her defeat.

Aside from carrying a rapier, Jeanne wields the Sacred Gear "Blade Blacksmith" (聖剣創造（ブレード・ブラックスミス） Burēdo Burakkusumisu^?, lit. "Creation of the Holy Sword"), which is the Holy Sword version of Kiba's "Sword Birth" that can create numerous Holy Sword of different attributes. Her Balance Breaker, "Stake Victim Dragon" (断罪の聖龍（ステイク・ビクティム・ドラグーン） Suteiku Bikutimu Doragūn^?, lit. "Holy Dragon of Judgement"), is a sub-species and it creates a Dragon made out of Holy Swords.

Heracles (ヘラクレス Herakuresu^?)

A man who carries the spirit of the Greek mythological hero Heracles. He is a giant and a battle maniac. He defeats a drunk Rossweisse in Volume 9. In Volume 12, he faces against the Sitri Group where he won by taking the children of the Underworld hostage. He then faces Sairaorg in a one-on-one fight which he lost. He is captured after his defeat.

His Sacred Gear is called "Variant Detonation" (巨人の悪戯（バリアント・デトネイション） Barianto Detoneishon^?, lit. "Prank of the Giant"), which has the ability to explode the same time it attacks. Its Balance Breaker is called "Detonation Mighty Comet" (超人による悪意の波動（デトネイション・マイティ・コメット） Detoneishon Maiti Kometto^?, lit. "Malicious Wave of the Superman"), which shoots missile-like objects.

Great Red (グレートレッド Gurēto Reddo^?)

Called the Apocalypse Dragon (真なる赤龍神帝（アポカリュプス・ドラゴン） Apkaryupusu Doragon^?), Great Red is one of the two Dragons that are above the Heavenly Dragons known as the "True Dragon" (真龍 Shinryū^?). The second largest Dragon after Midgardsormr, Great Red is known as the most powerful Dragon in existence. Called the "True Red Dragon God Emperor" (真なる赤龍神帝 Shin naru Sekiryūshintei^?), and "Dragon of Dragons" (D×D（ドラゴン・オブ・ドラゴン） Doragon obu Doragon^?, "DxD", for which the series is named after), Great Red lives in the Dimensional Gap and does not interfere in the world.

In Volume 12, Great Red helped Ophis and Issei by saving them from the crumbling dimension and restored Issei's body with his powers. He also lends Issei his power during his fight with the Jabberwocky created from Leonardo's Annihilation Maker, claiming that the "Beast" (referring to Jabberwocky) was glaring at him. After the battle, he returns to the Dimensional Gap while saying "Zoom Zoom Iyaaan" (from Oppai Dragon's theme song) over and over to Issei and Ddraig's dismay.

Great Red represents dreams.

[edit]Two Heavenly Dragons

Ddraig (ドライグ Doraigu^?)

Voiced by: Fumihiko Tachiki

Ddraig is the Red Dragon sleeping within Issei. Ddraig is, in fact, one of the two Heavenly Dragons known as the Welsh Dragon (赤い龍（ウェルシュ・ドラゴン） Werushu Doragon^?) and the Red Dragon Emperor (赤龍帝 Sekiryūtei^?) that has the power the destroy both God and Maou. In the past, Ddraig fought against his arch-rival, the Vanishing Dragon, Albion, which was interfered with by the three factions that are at war during the time. In anger, both Dragons attacked the leaders of three factions, which led to their bodies being destroyed and their souls moved to two separate Sacred Gears, with Ddraig moved to the Longinus "Boosted Gear". Ddraig has telepathically communicated with Issei on various occasion, giving him advice on his fight, and calls Issei his "Partner".

Ddraig has been brought to tears on many occasions due to Issei's lecherous ways and people calling the two of them the "Breast Dragon Emperor" and "Oppai Dragon" to a point that Ddraig is now in a state of constant (if comical) depression. As of Volume 10 of the light novels, Ddraig will start crying upon hearing the word "Breast".

Albion (アルビオン Arubion^?)

The other Heavenly Dragon known as the Vanishing Dragon (白い龍（バニシング・ドラゴン） アルビオン Banishing Doragon^?) and the White Dragon Emperor (白龍皇 Hakuryūkō^?), Albion is the White Dragon residing within Vali Lucifer as the Longinus "Divine Dividing". Similar to Ddraig, Albion also has the ability to telepathically communicate with Vali.

Like Ddraig, Albion has been brought to tears on many occasions due to Issei's lecherous ways and people calling Issei and Ddraig the "Breast Dragon Emperor" and "Oppai Dragon", which resulted in Albion feeling depressed on the fact that they are his rivals. This became even worse after Odin, who wanted to know Vali's interest in women, called them the "Butt Dragon Emperor" (ケツ龍皇 Ketsuryūkō^?)

[edit]Five Great Dragon Kings

Vritra (ヴリトラ Vuritora^?)

The evil Black Dragon known as the Prison Dragon (黒邪の龍王（プリズン・ドラゴン） Purizun Doragon^?) and one of the five Dragon Kings.

These four parts of Vritra's soul have different appearances and have been collected and sealed in Saji's body by Shemhazai, thus restoring Vritra's consciousness. Azazel hypothesized that due to contact with Issei, Vritra's consciousness appeared and might possibly unify all the different Sacred Gears because the other Sacred Gears melted together. Vritra possesses a wide range of special abilities. Though its power might be the lowest amongst the Dragon Kings, Vritra is the king of techniques in terms of variety and unconventionality.

Tiamat (ティアマット Tiamatto^?)

He was summoned by the Occult Research Club and Vali Team in Volume 7 to ask for advice on how to defeat Loki and Fenrir. He is the largest Dragon in the series, as well as the laziest. He calls his father, Loki, "Daddy" and his brother, Fenrir, "Doggy".

He trained Issei in the mountains in order to for him to attain his Balance Breaker. Tannin has a close relationship with Issei ever since he trained him, allowing him to call him "Old Man Tannin" (タンニーンのおっさん Tan'nīn-ossan^?). He became a Devil to gain access to the Underworld in order to train young Dragons and preventing their race from going extinct, as the majority of them are either dead, missing, or sealed in Sacred Gears. It is later revealed in Volume 14 that he is Mephisto Pheles' Queen, making him the first male Queen piece.

It is the natural enemy of all Dragons, having the ability to destroy other Dragons through a powerful curse like poison which are extremely deadly to a Dragon or a Dragon possessor. It is said that long ago, Samael was the perpetrator that influenced the first man, Adam and Eve, to eat the Fruit of Wisdom, and was cursed by God to become a Dragon because of God's hatred on Dragons. Following the curse, it was sealed in the deepest part of the Underworld, Cocytus. Hades summoned it from the Underworld and gave it to Cao Cao temporarily as part of the alliance.

Sun Wukong (孫悟空 Son Gokū^?)

Bikou's ancestor, he is the first Monkey King who is known as "The Great Victorious Fighting Buddha" (闘戦勝仏（とうせんしょうぶつ） Tōsen Shōbutsu^?). He appeared alongside Yu-Long in Kyoto, helping Issei and his friends during their fight against Cao Cao. He is extremely powerful, as he was able to overpower several members of the Hero Faction within seconds, a considerable feat as they were all Sacred Gear and Holy Sword users. He was even able to block Cao Cao's True Longinus with a single finger, which was even complimented by Azazel as the True Longinus is a spear capable of killing God.

Sun Wukong carries a staff that extend and retract in size and length in battle. He is a master of Senjutsu and Youjutsu as well, being capable of rejuvanating Issei with a single touch of his staff. He is currently looking for Bikou, which the latter speculates that it is because he joined a terrorist organization (Khaos Brigade).

Kunou (九重 Kunō^?)

The young ruler of Kyoto. A nine-tailed fox yōkai. She has a crush on Issei.

Yasaka (八坂^?)

Kunou's mother. Like her daughter, she is also a nine-tailed fox and an extremely powerful yōkai that is on par with an Ultimate-Class Devil.

Nicknamed Elmen (エルメン Erumen^?), she is a member of the Carmilla Faction (カーミラ派 Kamīra-ha^?), an all-female Vampire faction. She appears in Volume 14 as a special Envoy of the Carmilla Faction wanting Gasper to join their side.

Valerie Tepes (ヴァレリー・ツェペシュ Varerī Tsepeshu^?)

A Vampire belonging to the Tepes Faction (ツェペシュ派 Tepeshu-ha^?), an all-male Vampire faction. Like Gasper, she is a Dhampir and the two had been childhood friends. She was the one that helped Gasper escape from the Vampire world. After helping Gasper escape, she awakened her Longinus and indirectly helped her clan to enhance its power. She wields the Longinus"Sephiroth's Grail" (幽世の聖杯（セフイロト・グラール） Sefuiroto Gurāru^?, lit. "Holy Chalice of the Secluded World"), one of the four Holy Relics alongside the True Longinus.

[edit]Tennis Club monsters

Christie (クリスティ Kurisuti^?)

Christie is a gorilla under Abe who the latter claims is a yuki-onna. Apparently Yuki-onna being beautiful maidens was a tall tale, as they really look like Yetis, but the freezing breath is real. Has a crush on Issei after seeing the latter wear Honda's armor, much to Issei's shock and dismay.

"No-Head" Honda (ノーヘッド本田 Nōheddo Honda^?)

Honda is a Dullahan (デュラハン Dyurahan^?), a set of animate armor that carries its head under one arm, who is also under Abe. He is able to give immense strength to its wearer but the person wearing it cannot take it off until some time has passed due to a curse. The armor gets hot often so it was able to help protect Issei from Christie's freezing breath during the tennis match with Abe. When Issei first met Honda, it was acting as the tennis team's headless mascot since Abe, being a beast tamer, was watching over the armor and its horse while the head was at the hospital recovering from a hernia. Normally Honda being a supernatural monster wouldn't be allowed near the tennis team, but Rias and Sona were okay with it since he was doing it as the tennis team's official mascot. This shocked Issei not only because Honda is obviously supernatural, but also for his high popularity with the girls of the tennis team.

Takahashi (高橋^?)

Estleena (エステリーナ Esuterīna^?)

Freed Sellzen (フリード・セルゼン Furīdo Seruzen^?)

Voiced by: Yoshitsugu Matsuoka

Father Freed Sellzen is an exiled exorcist who only kills for his own desire. He kills Devils and humans who make contracts with Devils, claiming they are already stained to the extent beyond salvation. He is a wanted criminal at the Vatican. He does not believe in God from the start, as he only wanted to kill monsters. He is a battle-maniac, and prefers violence rather than logic. He is the most hated person to both exorcists and Devils. After being banished by the Orthodox Church, Freed sided with the Fallen Angels and fought Issei and his friends on numerous occasions. During his alliance with Kokabiel, Freed wielded three of the seven Excaliburs: Excalibur Rapidly, Excalibur Nightmare, and Excalibur Transparency, prior to them being merged. He was defeated by Yuto, having his torso sliced by the latter. He later joins the Khaos Brigade and have the remains of his body attached to a Chimera before being killed by Yuto.

According to Xenovia, Freed is considered a genius exorcist at the age of 13. This is further proven when he wielded an Excalibur that is the fusion of four out of the seven Excalibur with ease. Freed has also been shown as a pervert, as he once threatened to rape Asia for disobeying him and even asked Raynare to have sex with her as a reward for saving her from Rias.

However, her relationship did not go well with her family, as they believe her to be brainwashed by the Fallen Angel. To that end, her family sent attackers to dispatch the Fallen Angel and bring her back. She was killed defending Akeno when several of Baraqiel's enemies attacked her home while the latter was away, resulting in Akeno's hatred towards her father for not protecting her mother.
