Observation (Varies between Unconscious Manifestation & Conscious Manifestation; Observation users consciously and unconsciously change truths around them creating Gods and demons from myths and rumors), Negation (The power of observation, has the ability to make something without form, be certain and stable, The Axiom, tasked humans with observing the universe, allowing humans to assign an answer to phenomena without an answer. Dagda mentions humanity's "understanding" (observation) is what's locked him and Danu in physical forms. Nanashi and his party's denial of YHVH cast him into a demonic form. Gods and demons exist within a human's observation. Demons that also exist beyond death can be killed by observation users), Negation of Personal Nonexistence (Ayin Physiology; Can kill The White and demons, who naturally exist within the expanse, which the Monochrome Forest exists within the expanse, a place that is eerily still, having no sound or smell, where even the ground itself feels unusual, which demons naturally exist in.

Permanently killed YHVH. All demons are reliant on the observation of humans to keep them existing, including even nonexistent demons such as The White, allowing them to come back even if they’re erased from existence and nonexistence), Negation of Dimensionless Existence (Non-Dimensional; Demons only have "forms" due to the observation of humanity with even some demons being in the lowest form of humanity's observation making them unseeable without help, the "true forms" of demons are in truth without the concept of form, without observation they are not certain nor stable, are a phenomena without an answer and are unbound by concepts such as truth completely unshaped by reality. Demons under their observation forms embody concepts such as infinity which they are free from in their true forms), Timeless Physiology (Demons are natural residents of The Expanse, a place that transcends the past, present, and future of the multiverse.

Equipment

• GUMP: The Devil Summoner Kyouji Kuzunoha comes equipped with heavily modified gun that has been integrated with a compact COMP system. The hybrid device is known as a "GUMP," which is a shortened term for Gun-COMP. Aside from its obvious purpose, it still functions like a regular gun. A COMP, also known as an Arm Terminal, is a portable computer which many characters have used in order to communicate with, transport, and summon demonic entities using the Demon Summoning Program. It comes with a list of other features such as automapping and auto-recovery.

Other

Standard Tactics: The protagonist initially as a human has no real method of attacking. Though later on he proceeds to use his weapons along with demons in combat either commanding them, or letting them decide what to do during combat themselves.

Weaknesses: His demons are weak to mercuric sulfide.

Note: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner doesn't have an official nor fan-translation, due to this the scans gathered come from youtuber Marsh's "The Devil Summoner Experience" where he explains the game and story in depth and lparchive's playthrough, where they play through the game and post screenshots with scenes they translate.

Trivia

• The protagonist is briefly seen in-game during the cutscene following his initial death. During that scene, he has different clothes compared to his promotional and in-game artwork; a black short-sleeved top, white pants and casual shoes. He also appears to have brown instead of black hair.
• The protagonist's hairstyle and clothing are promotional items in Shin Megami Tensei IMAGINE. Despite being directly based on the protagonist's hairdo, the hairstyle bears Kyouji's name.
• The protagonist appears as a cameo in Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory as a C-ranked quest giver. The quest itself is named Evil Classroom and requires Neptune to find three "Heretic Jellys" so the protagonist can increase the HP and MP of the demon he is currently using. Based on the quest description, the protagonist seems to be a bit of a bird-brain as he misnames the Heretic Jelly as "Renegade Jelly."
  • The protagonist appears yet again in a A-ranked quest named Negotiation Failure where he apparently failed to convince a "Kerberos" (Cerberus) to join him and asks Neptune to defeat four of them for him since he got injured.
• Arsène Lupin III is one of the main inspirations for the protagonist's design. Other inspirations include the protagonists of Tantei Monogatari, The Adventures of Ford Fairlane, and Ace Ventura: Pet Detective.
