Fish Devil
CharacterA devil shaped by humanity's fear of fish, it surfaces as a colossal aquatic beast. It earns a footnote in the story for swallowing a piece of the Gun Devil, a scrap that devil hunters later carve back out of its remains.
Appearance
The creature takes the form of an enormous fish. A split, doubled tail trails behind it, and the detail that sets it apart is the row of six legs running along its body, which look part machine and part flesh.
Personality
Almost nothing has been established about how it thinks. Like other devils that wear no human shape, it is assumed to hold the usual loathing toward people.
History
At some earlier point the beast consumed a portion of the Gun Devil's body. That single act made it a target. Aki Hayakawa and Himeno tracked it down and killed it, then pulled the swallowed shard of Gun Devil flesh out of the corpse.
