## Characters

### Player

Your character starts a college dropout who comes face-to-face with a gathering of demons and is immediately slaughtered. In the afterlife, you encounter Hades, the god of the underworld. Hades strikes a deal with you that if you can find the cause of the demons acting extremely hostile before the year ends, you'll be brought back to life.

### Miki Yamadori

A young college student interested in the occult, Miki is your partner in discovering what is causing the behavior of the demons. She has a secret crush on you, but due to the readings in her tarot cards, she hides it for she believes confession will leave to great disaster.

### Jun'ya Echi

The protagonist of the first game who possessed the body of Kyouji Kuzunoha, he has retired from hunting down demons and has since been forgotten in the public eye. Hearing the resurgence of demon activity has inspired him to come out of retirement and fight alongside you.

### Kumiko Hatano

The former girlfriend and now wife of Jun'ya Echi, Kumiko joins you along with Jun'ya and serves as a secretary of the Kuzunoha Detective Agency and will give you quests to complete.

### Hades

The god of the underworld, Hades is in charge of monitoring all of the souls that come to his realm when they die. Recently, there has been a disturbingly increase in deaths relating to demon attacks. So Hades appoints you to find out the cause of the demon's behavior in exchange for being brought back to life.

### Shin

A mysterious Devil Summoner who leads a cult known as Reverence. An arrogant man who's believes he's a god trapped in the form of a human, Shin is determined to subjugate all of humanity to his will. But rumor has it that he's nothing more than a head figure for the true masterminds behind Reverence.....

## Demons

As with the previous Devil Summoner, demons can be obtained by negotiating with them during battle or can be created during fusion in the Hotel Goumaden. Once obtained demons will have a loyalty meter which monitors how they enjoy being treated by the player, higher loyalty demons will be more supportive during battle while low loyalty demons will be frustrated with the player and may even leave them.

## Symbolism

The main theme for this game is the resurgence of the forgotten/the endeavors of being remembered:

* The game tales place in the modern day, where the accomplishments by Kyouji Kuzunoha are all forgotten until word spreads of demons causing trouble once more.
* Many of the demons introduced to this game are obscure in the eyes of humans, so their resentment over not mattering would leave these demons desiring vengeance against humanity.
* Most if not all of the demon, new and returning, have elements of popular culture incorporated in their designs, in that way they can stand out in the eyes of modern society and be recognized once more.
* The goal of Reverence is to leave a mark on humanity where they'll be forever remember even as they all pass on, which they do by influencing demons to become aggressive.
* The game itself is a sequel to the vaguely remembered Devil Summoner spin-offs.
