Moray Eel Devil
CharacterEmbodying the concept of moray eels, this devil counts itself among Yoru's allies. Called up from Hell to fight Pochita during the War Devil arc, it is swiftly torn apart and later eaten by Denji as a calculated jab at Yoru.
Appearance
The Moray Eel Devil's body is long, gnarled, and broken into segments that look like rings of bared muscle piled on top of one another, surrounding a hollow core. A lengthy gash splits its form down the side, lined with interlocking rows of keen teeth. Its head takes the shape of a grotesque eel, fitted with large eyes and a cluster of finger-like protrusions.
Personality
Details of its character are scarce, though it shares a bond of friendship with Yoru, who regards it warmly.
History
In the War Devil arc, Yoru releases the creature from Hell to confront Pochita, only to watch it be carved into pieces. Denji afterward fashions a crude suit of armor out of the severed heads of Yoru's fallen allies, the Moray Eel Devil among them. When Yoru opens fire on Denji, the shot tears into the mounted devil as well, and Denji promptly devours it, a move made purely to taunt Yoru and deepen her anguish. In a fight it leans chiefly on its serpentine body and rapid lunges to strike at and snare its foes.
