The Human Devil - Turns out all humans are devils, but they dominated earth so much that they became the "standard" and don't see themselves as devils.
Just throwing out the idea, I haven't read the manga, so no spoilers. Would make for an interesting higher concept if it ever got explored.
And then there's the whole issue: If there's devils, is there more supernatural stuff going on? Is there an afterlife? So many questions that will probably never be answered :>

Makima as a serial killer, getting devil support, is also a good theory.
Thinking back, her behavior gives more weight to how she said Denji could be dealt with at the begining of the show.
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
Don't see how that matters. We've seen devils kill each other.Originally Posted by David75
The Human Devil is an interesting idea. Lots to fear from other people.
I wonder how many weird political devils there are from, like, conservative fearmongering?
Is there a Foreigner Devil? A Vaccine Devil? A Trans Devil?
It might show which side she is. For the moment she only killed criminals (it seems).

oh my, imagine if this anime goes the "black people are actually the black devil" route. Although I think such controversy would have gotten spoiled by outrage long before the anime aired, so that probably won't happen.
Still, I hope we'll get enough world building/lore to get a full understanding of devils and how they work.

Both sides of the aisle have their boogeymen we could meme into devilhood, but thankfully CsM is more apolitical than most western media is trying to be nowadays.

The most feared devil of them all!!11

So it's confirmed that devils indeed get weaker (usually) by becoming a fiend. That confirms that they really have no intention of becoming one unless it somehow helps their cause or survivial. Once you become a fiend though, can you un-fiend?

Power's dumb. Shark Fiend is dumb. Violence Fiend was sarcastic, can't tell for sure.
Spider and Angel haven't demonstrated enough to tell. Angel is probably just lazy but not dumb.

Episode 12 - Final:
So, that's it?
Nice episode, but also not a good permanent ending. I really hope season 2 gets announced soon.
Have to say, sword guy surviving being split in half was some bs, even when Denji explained it away.

He wasn't even the Sword Devil. Specifically the Katana Devil. Explains the anime teleport slash.
Katana Devil:
I mean, he's literally the same as Denji. And Denji got it way worse than that in episode 1.
Even when they're a zombie you should feel bad or not kill them. The fuck is he smoking.
edit: the ED segment was canon. That makes me happy.

Nobody watched the movie but me? Pretty great stuff. Also, not an optional watch, I assume season 2 begins after the film whenever that happens.
I watched it opening night. No nipples.
Peace.
I found it strange they nonetheless included Denji's line about how he can see her nipples.
EDIT:
Actually it was the same in the comic.
Yeah, but why keep it the same in the movie instead of improving it?? It even has an R rating in the US.
At least we got all the waki.
My wife got shook by the ending even though I already spoiled it to her as a manga reader.
Peace.
I wouldn't really call that an "improvement".
Great action, great drama. I love how obviously the movie sets up the other shoe to fall, you're just sitting there grimacing the entire time he's hanging out with Reze. Wonder if anyone bought the pump fake with the guy contracted with Typhoon?
There's one minor issue I have: I don't think the movie played out their little meet-cute correctly. Reze IS about to kill him the first time they meet. When Denji is trying to throw the flower up she reaches in her pocket for a "handkerchief" but she's probably reaching for her knife to kill him, but stops when he produces the flower. It's the same pocket she reaches for to try and defend herself against Makima. I don't think the film dwelt on this at all.
Also, in the scene where she kills the guy contracted with Typhoon, she doesn't sing in Russian, does she? What was the deal with changing that? Just to preserve the pretty pointless reveal that she's a Soviet Red Room operative specifically for the final scene? Also, the most minor of all minor nitpicks, but whoever drew the chokehold didn't actually position Reze's arms so she was actually choking him out. I wonder if it was a censorship issue because the hold is cinched in tight in the comic.
Why? It is anatomically more accurate, sexy, and fits the rating. As you said, it would also make Denji's comment about seeing her nipples make sense. It is always jarring to see naked boobs with no nipples, like in the Ranma remake. Just cover the nipples with foreground or something instead of that.clsuwaqmft0g1.png
