NEW CHARACTER DETAILS:
Shohei Yakumo (voiced by Tomokazu Sugita) – “I thought you’d be cleaning up the stragglers… but he looks like no angel I’ve seen.” A mysterious man who stands in the way of the protagonist as he advances through Da’at. “Take solace in our meeting, boy. I’ll make your death a painless one.” He has labeled himself as “he who hunts all demons.” “Maybe then you’ll see the truth.” His motives and true colors remain unknown, but he seems to work alongside Nuwa, a demon. “See gods and demons alike fighting over humanity… and Tokyo caught in the crossfire.”
Nuwa, Lady (voiced by Ayana Taketatsu) – A goddess that appears in Chinese mythology. “Are you part of the reinforcements sent by Bethel? The man beside me is Yakumo…” She’s worked alongside Yakumo since he was young to fulfill a certain goal. “I suppose one could say he is my other half. The angels that infested this area are now dead.” She suddenly appears before the protagonist, and attacks. “And I daresay they could use some company.”
Abdiel, Archangel & Bethel’s Deputy Angel Commander (voiced by Romi Park) – An angel who oversees Bethel’s headquarters. “Am I to understand you went against the Condemnation?” Stern and uncompromising, she eradicates anyone who threatens the order of Bethel through sheer force. “Answer, boy. Bethel will have no mercy for one who violates the will of God.” She’s fervently devoted to God and is committed to defending his order at all costs. “It is a duty I am sure you will continue to perform.”
The protagonist will come across a number of mysterious humans and demons on this journey… But what exactly are their ultimate motives? All across Da’at, the conflict between gods and demons intensifies even further. What future will await Tokyo…?
