Owari no Seraph Wiki

Shikama Dōji (四鎌童子 Shikama Dōji?, lit. "Four-Scythe Child") is a manifestation-type demon in Seraph of the End who formed a contract with Shinoa Hīragi. Becoming her Cursed Gear scythe, the weapon was used to fight against vampires both by physically slicing into them and by its ability to generate and fire a manifested form at targets. Shikama Dōji himself would react to Shinoa's developing emotions and act to possess her.

Historically, Shikama Dōji has possessed every head of the Hīragi Family. Concurrently possessing Tenri Hīragi while occupying Shinoa's weapon, he would also seek out Kureto Hīragi to try and possess him as well. Expressing familiarity with Kureto's demon, Raimeiki, he would act further of his own accord in approaching Asuramaru and Yūichirō Hyakuya, where Shikama Dōji also appears to know them. Given the opportunity, Shikama Dōji would succeed in possessing Shinoa.

It would further transpire that Shikama Dōji was active during the dark ages of Greece. Going by the name Sika Madu (シカ・マドゥ Shika Madou?), he would claim to have been the first vampire. Referred to as the First, having turned Rigr Stafford and Urd Geales into second progenitors, Sika Madu was also experimenting on a past Yu, and changed Ashera Tepes into a vampire and then a demon. A scheme to prepare for a future catastrophe involved his son Mikaela, and other demons including Kiseki-o with Gekkouin, Raimeiki, Byakkomaru and Noya Hienma.

Appearance

Vampire

In the past as a vampire, Sika Madu's appearance was initially unknown as he wore a flowing cloak with a hood that covered his face. It is recollected that Sika Madu appeared as a slim, androgynous person with dainty features. He had long straight, silver colored and waist-length hair. This was tied up in a braid and worn over the front of his body on the left. His fringe was at a length where sections appeared over his eyes, and on the sides of his face Sika Madu's hair reached near his shoulders. In this state, Sika Madu would also have three pairs of white feathered, seraph like wings which could materialize.

He wore clothing that was in keeping with the time period of ancient Greece. A hooded shawl like garment was embroidered with a leaf like motif. This was worn over a relatively light colored, short-sleeved top which formed part of a tunic with the length down to his feet. Other clothing options included a long white robe which had deep blue colored sections. Jewellery worn included two necklaces, and a long cuff bracelet around each wrist.

When Yu mentions that Michaela could be a princess to be rescued, Sika Madu remarks neither he or Michaela have a gender like humans. While he cannot say whether or not Michaela can become a proper princess when Yu refers to him as that,[2] Sika Madu is still referred to as "he/him" in most conservations.

Though neither Mikaela nor I have a gender like humans. I can't say whether or not he can become a proper "princess".

–Commenting to Yu from the past on differences to humans. page 3

Demon

Being a demon, Shikama Dōji's true form is a slim androgynous person with horns, who appears to be around twenty-five or twenty-six years old, and Shinoa herself could not tell if the demon is a male or female. Shikama Dōji has his hair untied which falls across his back and has two curled strands that flow down to his front. On his head, Shikama Doji has two white wings curved around the top of his head and two smaller wings hanging behind his ears. Being a former vampire, he has pointed ears visible, and fangs. Unlike vampires and demons who have characteristically red eyes, Shikama Dōji's are golden.

Bearing an angelic appearance, Shikama's seraph like features include three pairs of white feathered wings protruding from his back. His elegant clothing involves a drapery style, off-the-shoulder dress with flowing long sleeves that are attached to the dress with shoulder straps. Tied around his waist is a dress piece, and he is barefoot. Although having traits of three distinct entities in his past and current state of being, Shikama Dōji tells Shinoa that he is not actually a demon.

Weapon manifestation

Shikama Dōji manifests as a dark, smoky amorphous essence with a wide "mouth," jagged fangs, and a pair of jagged horns that curve back behind his head. This "mouth" contains an eye-like glowing orb.

Possession

Upon successfully possessing his wielder Shinoa Hīragi and gaining control of her physical body, the only difference between them is that Shinoa's eyes become a pale yellow with thinner irises and pupils. Shikama Dōji's angelic wings can also form where they can still be used for himself and the body he is in to fly.

Personality

Vampire

Initially during his time as the First Progenitor, Shikama Dōji's personality was known through others' accounts of it. According to Saitō, Sika Madu eventually disregarded everyone in the vampire race, except for Ashera Tepes. Where he was involved with turning others into vampires and demons, Sika Madu would leave most of them, in favor of a specific few.

Before that time, Sika Madu was more involved in others around him. Always smiling, Sika Madu was kind and heartwarming towards Ashera upon meeting him for the first time, and treated Yu gentle and kind as well. Asking if they were hungry, Sika Madu took measures to feed them. Patient as they eat, Sika Madu made observations that Ashera held his spoon well, and had acquired the knowledge of his noble heritage. Speaking casually to Yu in discussing his height, Sika Madu was mild-mannered in his speaking. From Yu's response of what he does, Sika Madu allowed him to act freely and essentially play all day.

Willing to buy children as slaves, on more than one occasion was an instance of a dark underside to his otherwise pleasant demeanour. When it became apparent that Sika Madu was fine with a murderous seraph Yu in the room, he was also calm in requesting that Ashera leave. Swiftly intervening to seize Yu as he attacked, Sika Madu remained in control of what would have been a tense situation. Largely unfazed that Ashera had been mortally attacked, Sika Madu also took to the air at night where there were a chance people could be watching, and unemotionally cut seraph Yu's head off. Regarding the dying Ashera as a figure of curiosity when he survived, Sika Madu spent more time on analyzing what his next course of action should be. Freely admitting that he had been murdering experiments for hundreds of years, Sika Madu viewed them nothing but guinea pigs.

In focusing on tweaking with living beings, Sika Madu planned for the very long term. Wondering whether it would be a mistake to use his own blood or Yu's blood to change Ashera was weighed up in his mind. Aware that the restricted chamber where Mikaela was kept had been accessed, Sika Madu was not angered but turned to the matter the circumstances around it. Surrounded by his chosen disciples, Sika Madu spoke with purpose at desiring to prevent a future catastrophe and gave them the option to pull out. Not motivated by seeking glory, where success would likely not even be recognized, Sika Madu exercised a calm methodological patience in many of his actions. While he shed what appeared to be tears when his plan seemed in danger, Sika Madu vowed to not give up. He was willing to call for help from Saito and Urd and offered to tell them everything as leverage.

Demon

Within cursed gear that Shinoa was using, Shikama Dōji appears to be very quiet and only shares his emotions with her. According to Shinoa, he talks within her heart, and the two seem to get along as he is addressed as "Shi-chan" in the Japanese version, and "Shi" in English. Unlike other demons, who forget their past lives as vampires when they transform, Shikama Dōji retains all of his memories.[5]

An inquisitive personality becomes increasingly clearer after Shikama Dōji insists Shinoa will be consumed with either lust or love for Yu. In sharing his affirmations, Shikama Dōji repeatedly tells her she is much stronger than her sister ever was.[6]

Using some extraordinary methods in trying to get what he would like, Shikama Dōji mentions it upfront but seems convinced he has some leverage in gaining it. Appearing as a scythe before Shinoa, he was afraid if she did not open her heart to him then Shikama Dōji would not be able to show her his true form anymore. With no interest from Shinoa whatsoever in seeing him, Shikama Dōji said bluntly for Shinoa to open her heart to him. Honest to a degree, Shikama Dōji shared he would not possess Shinoa as he was much too busy trying to possess someone else. Concerned that the walls around Shinoa's heart were very tall, Shikama Dōji requested that she lower them, just a little will do. In exchange, Shikama Dōji said Shinoa would get to see a few of his memories. With such fundamentally inadequate offerings failing to entice Shinoa to open herself up for possession, Shikama Dōji moved to something practical given current circumstances.

While Shikama Dōji was working to possess Kureto he offered memories that would be able to save him, then deemed Shinoa callous for not being interested. Bringing Mika into the conversation, Shikama Dōji said for Shinoa to accept him into her heart, and she may discover a way to turn him back into a human. Recognizing the meaning behind such actions, Shikama Dōji spoke how he wondered what kind of look would be on Yu's face if Shinoa could do that. Homing in on what else could induce feelings in Shinoa, he mentions returning Yu's humanity to him. Still resolutely fixed on having Shinoa lower her walls, Shikama Dōji said if she did so he would tell her what he really is.

If you can, I would be quite grateful if you would. I've been having such trouble trying to die for quite some time now.

–His reaction to Kureto's threat of killing him. "Defining a King"

Toward people other than Shinoa, he appears serene with a smile most of the time. This remains the case even with weapons and threats of violence around him. With Kureto voicing an intent to kill him, Shikama Dōji replied he would be extremely grateful if he could do so having tried for some time. Not taking matters seriously is also shown when is stabbed through the chest with cursed gear where his reaction is to greet Raimeiki, the demon weapon being driven into him[7] After leaving Kureto's body and possessing Shinoa completely he was quite happy with the situation.[8]

With Shinoa as his vessel, Shikama Dōji monitors a situation before acting in response to stimuli. Not acting until he has to, when Shinoa as his host came under attack from Ferid he defended her by slicing him apart.[9] With Crowley nearby, a vicious onslaught was launched at him too. While he was open to dialogue, it ended with the First presenting his defeated attacker to others. Pleased to show what he had done while holding the chopped in half upper torso of Ferid, the First was also keen to hear of any plots transpiring and was very eager to join in by way of drawing his scythes to attack.[10] Awaiting attacks from others, Sika Madu acted defensively.

Approaching Saitō, he partook in small talk on how long it had been. Watching Saitō's plan unfold, Shikama Dōji enthusiastically wondered what was going on. Hearing he was being captured, Shikama Dōji dismissed such a plan due to Saitō's lack of power. Turning to a nearby seraph but finding their arm restrained, the First in Shinoa's body responded by striking off Saitō's head. Whether it was naivety or an unrestrained desire to remove a foe's head as swiftly as possible, Shikama Dōji believed Saitō's claims that cutting a chain would kill him. With many chains springing out, the First responded by evading the weapons and gaining some distance between them.

Surprise is shown when unexpected happenings occur, and Shikama Dōji appears unsettled by them. Stunned that his communications to Ashera could be heard by Shinoa, he was willing to leave her and Mahiru having deemed them dangerous for not acting in accordance to what he anticipated. In preserving his plans, Shikama Dōji does not mind being sealed to prevent damage to his vessel. While apparently accepting what he may have thought the situation was when three seraphs had found him, the First resolved to defend against their attacks.

No. Not yet. I'm not going to give up.

–His determination despite facing three seraphs while weakened. Chapter 108: "Yu's Sword", page 33

Under duress Shikama Doji is willing to abandon a battle, to try again later. Where Shinoa as a vessel was at risk from sinful keys, he ceased his possession of her. Feeling weary and with the likelihood of damage to himself, Shikama Doji will contact who he can call upon to possibly assist, even those who were hostile to him, to act on his behalf. In enacting plans, Shikama Dōji will manipulate and work with others.

Rigr! Urd! I'll tell you all! So give me power! Now!

–Weathering seraph spears, Sika Madu calls for help from the second progenitors and offers information to gain it. Chapter 108: "Yu's Sword", page 35

Imprisoned at apparently at the mercy of others, Shikama Doji showed no concern for his welfare, not even when directly attacked. Indifferent to his blood being spilled, the First does not appear to register the extent that others may feel about his practices. Asked if he noticed why Saito had called his organization the Hyakuya Sect, his disinterest in that would extend to the wider world in general.

I didn't notice. I didn't even bother. First and foremost... ...Nothing in this world means anything...

–Professing he did not notice the meaning behind the Hyakuya Sect's name, also a claim at odds with his intent to resurrect his son. Chapter 114 "Everyone's Goals", page 7

It was a similar state of inactivity when having his memories accessed by Saito. In what may be an example of his manipulation abilities, it is possible Shikama Doji allowed the actual events of a memory play out, but tampered with just one scenario to give a show that all his activities were committed for the good of vampires. Another possible manipulation method was speaking aloud to Yu of where he was and enjoining him to reach his location. Where Yu announced he has information of how to resurrect Mikaela, he would benefit from that. Where Shikama Doji may have deliberately spoken aloud through his mind so that vampire progenitors also heard his announcement, it would spur them into moving to try and stop Yu reaching him, and so bring the vampires in range of a curse Yu and Mika had to unleash.

Angel

Memories to the prehistoric past revealed observations of Sika Madu's personality, and among many others around him. Lauded as King of Earth and respected by others, Sika Madu did not have it go to his head. Effectively communicating plans to others, Sika Madu was also comfortable by himself as he studied taboo related areas.

Contrary to the vampire and demon expected personality traits, Sika Madu was capable of feeling emotion. Not always showing it though, it would be displayed in unspoken plans to have fallen seraphs resurrected for them all to return to paradise. Feelings were displayed when Sika Madu found his son Mikaela deceased.

Silence! I won't accept this! I don't feel arrogant in the least! All I feel right now is despair! Exhaustion! Helplessness!

–Not committed to resurrection and life extending areas due to arrogance, Sika Madu articulates his feelings after witnessing death. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 7

In otherwise keeping matters to himself, that he was working towards resurrecting others is not something he shared with others. As with heightened emotions in response to certain events, Sika Madu was prepared to speak candidly to individual beings such as Bael. Although respected as the King of Earth who could get things done, Sika Madu had his doubts about what he was capable of.

To be honest... ...I'm not as strong as everyone thinks I am.

–Upfront with Bael who mentioned his resistance. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 14

Such moments of doubt were brief however, and when the worse happened Sika Madu would look into ways around it. Having this trait established, Sika Madu read into information concerning taboo areas for angels such as creating life and extending it in response to illnesses. Far from brazen, Sika Madu would still show a patient and determined commitment. Though his attention was on developing his taboo-breaking related plans, Sika Madu still was cautious and did not overlook potential repercussions.

Still no punishment. Then you permit this? Or have I hidden it from you that thoroughly? Which?

–Speaking aloud to God after darkening light. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 37

Giving matters such thought, Sika Madu when unsure of whether he was able to conceal matters from God, or if it was being permitted, he took various possibilities into account. In presenting created life and speaking of it aloud to God, he abandoned a work silently method to state everything he intended to do. Honest about his intent to resurrect Mikaela, he also detailed a plan to an unresponsive God that he meant to bring them all to paradise. While Sika Madu spoke that he took God's silence as a sanction to go ahead, he nevertheless took measures to conceal his activities as a precaution. When the worst indeed happened and seraphs fired upon a homunculus he had ordered to darken light, Sika Madu was unusally calm in response.

Ah. Damn. It's no good.

–A nonchalant response when seraphs blast apart a homunculus where the beam heads to where he is. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 40

His concern for angels within the kingdom on Earth was genuine. A chance to resurrect the ones who had perished was taken over the opportunity to have the remainder return to paradise. A suspicion by others that Sika Madu intended to endure any ramifications himself well well founded. Even when experiencing burning, Sika Madu's focus was on keeping punishment focused on himself to spare other angels it.

Wait! Only punish me! It was just me!

–Seeking to accept punishment for what where just his own actions, and attempting to spare other angels. Chapter 129: "The First Vampire" Page 7

Losing his son Mikaela, to registering that half the angels had perished took its toll on Sika Madu. While outwardly not too concerned at seeing his resurrection attempt had failed, the destruction of the city he lived with and the deaths of angels greatly distressed Sika Madu. Anguished at their murders, particularly at Amon being brought to him to be killed within sight greatly impacted him. Unresponsive as the lightning attack from seraphs on himself resumed, Sika Madu then requested death after all his losses.

Kill me. Please. I long for oblivion.

–Requesting death after the loss of the angels in his civilization and the lightning he experiences. Chapter 129: "The First Vampire" Page 18

A combination of focusing on his plans, and not fully appreciating other factors that he does not consider an issue becomes a liability for Sika Madu. In seeing humans as cursed dolls to be used as tools, and in discussing his plan with the homunculus named Yu, he fails to even register that a human has approached Mikaela's coffin as is communicating with his deceased son.

Although extensively knowledgable, Sika Madu seems unaware that Mikaela could inhabit a human of his own accord. Perhaps if he had a greater interest in humans he would have approached the one in question to overhear that it was Mikaela forming a plan with the homunculus. Similar to humans, Sika Madu would not consider that homunculus' had free will, and so wrongly conclude that the homunculus was not involved with the corpse of Mikaela scattering the sinful keys even though that was the case.

Then what was that? What happened? I should be the only one here with any independent will.

–Unsure what befell Mikaela, and his ideas concerning free will when there is a homunculus and humans around. Chapter 130: "The Light Which Remains" 23

Ambitions

As with other demons Shikama Doji intends to possess his host, Shinoa. Having Shinoa entertain feelings of love for Yu are a means to have her lower walls so that he may take over her body. Unlike other demons though, Shikama Doji has interests outside the possession of his host, namely in possessing Kureto the head of the Japanese Imperial Demon Army. While Shikama Doji acts to possess each head of the family he has not shared why. An overall long-term goal of his concerns demons such as Asuramaru.

Back in the dark ages of Greece, he appeared to be working on seraph experimentation involving a Yu who also existed at that point. Having sought out individuals such as Saito and Urd to turn into vampires, Sika Madu also selected Ashera to become one having picked up details on his blood line. Despite his own, a seraph's, and vampires' incredible world conquering capabilities Sika Madu never expressed an interest in acquiring power over others. Experiments on many over ages was his priority, and Sika Madu revealed a concern for his deceased son, Mikaela.

Further back in prehistory, Sika Madu would still not speak of his goals, though it was clearer to others what they likely were. Far before humans had evolved on Earth, he led a civilizaiton of angels in constructing the Tower of Babel. Sika Madu also appeared active in having these established across other planets.

First, allow me to thank you all. I've received an official report that, among the satellite kingdoms... ...We've once again succeeded in building our tower taller than all others.

–An announcement to seraphs with him on Earth that the Tower of Babel is taller than others. Chapter 126: "Purgatory and Paradise" Page 4

While publicly involved with these constructions, Sika Madu early on maintained his private ambitions. Where a plague was killing angels, Sika Madu was acting to have members of the civilization return to God's location on the Sun, yet was conscious of those dying before they could do so. Far from a sinister ambition, at this time Sika Madu kept these plans to himself due to the nature of the God he was aware of. Potential answers to Sika Madu's problems were deemed taboo by the God, hence the need for him to act in secrecy.

Something must be done. At this rate, even if we do reach paradise... ...Over half of the angels who follow me will die.

–Meaning to return to paradise as well as ensure angels can survive a plague to do so. Chapter 126: "Purgatory and Paradise" Page 20

In having his private intentions guessed by others, Sika Madu would still not fully involve them. Observations from Paimon would indicate Sika Madu meant to resurrect seraphs who had died for them all to reach paradise, where he meant to endure God's punishment himself. In seeking to cure the plague it was speculated that Sika Madu created Mikaela for this reason.

An ultimate goal at this time was not just settling on completing the long-term plan of returning some angels to paradise, but having them all there. Steadfastly, Sika Madu would research forbidden knowledge where it kept him distant from others such as Mikaela who he may have regarded as just an experiment before feelings for who he would see as his son set in. It was the prolonged loss of other angels, and especially Mikaela that heavily impacted Sika Madu for him to even doubt the very purpose of what he was aiming for.

Why go on living after enduring this?! What's the point?! Over half of the angels have succumbed to that disease already! How is it "paradise" if the only way to get there is by abandoning them?!

–Having lost Mikaela among others, Sika Madu questions the meaningfulness of goals he worked so hard on. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 8

Despite what were devastating losses for him, Sika Madu resumed his commitment to resurrection. This time though Sika Madu elected to detail his plans to God. If he had secrecy on his side, Sika Madu willingly forwent it to articulate his goals for a chance to ascertain whether they were okay to proceed with after all.

If you won't grace me with an answer... ...Then I'll do it. I'll use Babel's light for my own purpose. First, I'll resurrect Mikaela.

–Delaying returning angels to paradise and sharing his intent to use the gathered light to bring his son back to life. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 31

After the colossal loss of the seraph civilisation, and all angels within it, then having been cursed as an undead to burn for millennia, Sika Madu was undeterred. In lieu of having ideas of vengeance, Sika Madu explored other means of attempting the resurrection. If there was a method possible, Sika Madu would commit to it.

I think the best way... ...Is for us to copy God. As they made angels to collect light... ...We, too, shall create. I'll make cursed dolls of mud to collect darkness.

–Forming humans to gather darkness in order to resurrect Mikaela to use the light inside him for others. Chapter 129: "The First Vampire" Page 29

Although presently imprisoned, Shikama Doji is moved to at least engage with events in calling to Yu after he mentions information concerning how Mikaela can be resurrected.

History

Prehistory

Memories accessed by Yu and Mika feature Mikaela alive and saying that father was calling. Should the father referred to certainly be Sika Madu then he was present during the late Cretaceous before the appearance of humans in the world.[11] Similarly, as father Sika Madu is referred to by Mikaela who had acquired ice cream that existed at the time.[12] Sika Madu is discussed by Yu and Mika where the possibility of his presence is the reason for them halting their pursuit of Mikaela to instead traverse the Tower of Babel after discussing their next move. He is mentioned when Yu wonders whether the First eats ice cream.[13]

Sika Madu was present in the Tower of Babel, where the Babel Project it was involved in was to return inhabitants to paradise. Within the vicinity of many seraphs and eye beings in a civilisation of them, Sika Madu was around constructs including unrailed elevator technology. It is not clear whether the First knew that the city he was in formed a pentagram when viewed from space. Within the top floor of the Tower of Babel, Sika Madu was seated in a floating chair in a room that did not appear to have walls or a ceiling, with many levitating screens around him. A smaller screen bearing text of some sort was one he was focused on.[14]

After gazing for a while at the screen, Sika Madu spoke how what he is reading would not work either. Remaining in his seat before the screens,[15] Sika Madu was reading materials on darkening the Sun's power, creating servant tribes, and resurrecting the dead, the latter two of which were said to be strictly against a law.

Not appearing happy that someone had entered the room,[16] in seeing that it was Mikaela he requested that he please wait a moment. Motioning with his hand to have the screens vanish, Sika Madu got up to his feet to speak with Mikaela who had brought ice cream.[17]

Gathering that Mikaela had went into town again, Sika Madu thought he had forbade that. Speaking to the eyeball being that is with Mikaela, he had told it to keep an eye on him. Picking up on the Yu name that Mikaela had called the eyeball being, Sika Madu questions did he name his homunculus again.[18]

Did you name your homunculus again?

–Referring to an eyeball being as a homunculus and raising how Mikaela had named one as Yu. Chapter 125: "Soft Serve with Father" Page 14

Observing as Mikaela shares his joy at naming them, Sika Madu sees how he has called one Yu. As before, Sika Madu addresses how he still does not recommend naming them. Proceeding to explain why, Sika Madu states when one names a thing they could curse them with a heart.[19]

Not moved at all by Mikaela enthusiastically declaring that giving names is a sign of love, Sika Madu doubles down that it is a curse. If they have hearts they will be stuck with concerns and doubts. In response to Mikaela questioning why he named him Mikaela since he is his child, Sika Madu promptly replies to curse him, of course.[20]

Suddenly hugged by Mikaela who received his words as a joke, Sika Madu neither returned his hug or responded when prodded to admit that he gave his name because he loves him.[21] Perhaps influenced by Mikaela's then upset expression, Sika Madu patted him on the head before answering yes, he loves him.[22]

Handed some ice cream, Sika Madu asked what it is. Gathering where it was acquired from, Sika Madu told Mikaela he told him not to eat anything they offer in the city as he has a weak constitution.[23]

Through some means Sika Madu could have the ice cream cone suspended in front of him. A technological based circular screen could appear where the First had that analyse the ice cream. Sika Madu was not quite convinced by Mikaela's words that if it tastes good then it is good for you.[24]

In response to Mikaela coughing, Sika Madu said for him to see. He did not comment further when Mikaela attempted to give the excuse that he just swallowed funny. When Mikaela dropped the ice cream and sunk to his knees, Sika Madu stood with his hand outstretched. Without a word for the blood on the floor, or Mikaela claiming that it was not because of the soft serve, Sika Madu materialized a flat object from the air.[25]

The large floating platter that Sika Madu had generated was used to support Mikaela who he raised off the ground to place on it. With that done, Sika Madu spoke that no, it was because Mikaela broke his promise and spent too much time outside. Stating that the air outside does not agree with Mikaela's lungs, Sika Madu instructed him to go back to the cleansing room.[26]

No. It's because you broke your promise and spent too much time outside. The air out there doesn't agree with your lungs. Go back to the cleansing room.

–Stating why Mikaela became ill and directing him to an area he could recover. Chapter 125: "Soft Serve with Father" Page 31

When Mikaela said that he hated the cleansing room, Sika Madu gave his words some thought. Speaking how if he was sick and had done the same thing that Mikaela just did, Sika Madu questioned how would he feel. After Mikaela replied that he would be upset, Sika Madu responded for him to try and not make him upset. Once Mikaela said he was sorry, Sika Madu told him he was a good boy and stated for him to go.[27]

Traces of a smile appeared on Sika Madu's face after Mikaela asked would he ever get better. The First answered of course, once Mikaela grows up he will be all better.[28]

Of course. Once you grow up, you'll be all better.

–An assuring answer for Mikaela. Chapter 125: "Soft Serve with Father" Page 34

If he meant when Mikaela grows up like him, Sika Madu answered exactly. On whether Mikaela would grow up to be someone as amazing as him, Sika Madu replied affirmatively if he rests, like he should. Adding that he analysed that treat, Sika Madu mentioned how it does not seem particularly harmful. Sika Madu said he would let Mikaela get some for him again later.[29]

Asked if they could eat the ice cream together, Sika Madu responded yes before directing Mikaela to go and get his rest. Sika Madu watched in silence as the floating platter took Mikaela away with Yu the homunculus accompanying him.[30][31]

Outside in the civilization, and surrounded by a huge amount of seraphs, Sika Madu was hailed as the King of Earth and addressed as his majesty. Solemn-faced, in extending his hand Sika Madu politely requested quiet.[32]

His image appearing on large floating screens, Sika Madu spoke for the seraphs to allow him to thank them all. Having received an official report, he announced that among the satellite kingdoms they have once again succeeded in building their tower taller than all others. Seven celestial bodies appearing on the screens appear to be information Sika Madu provided.[33]

Another demonstration to the seraphs came in the form of a glowing sphere that manifested in Sika Madu's palm. Continuing to speak, Sika Madu detailed how their reservoir of photons, the source of their kind's power, was also nearing 90% of the target volume. The small sun like energy formed into a significantly larger one next to him. Around Sika Madu's wings a fiery aura covered himself, and seraphs.[34]

Giving thanks to the unstinting effort of everyone before him, Sika Madu spoke that their Earth kingdom was that much closer to returning to the sun. Sika Madu added that was where god awaited on their throne.[35]

Thanks to the unstinting effort of everyone here, our Earth kingdom... ...Is that much closer to returning to the Sun, where God awaits upon their throne. It won't be long now! Soon, we will finally reach paradise!

–Before seraphs, Sika Madu announces they will move from their Earth outpost to where a god is located. Chapter 126: "Purgatory and Paradise", page 6-7

As the seraphs were rapturous, Sika Madu was approached by a figure and addressed as Earth King. Both Bael and Paimon were interested in the time at hand, and Sika Madu confirmed yes thier dearest wish would soon be granted. Mentioning how everyone has worked so hard for so long, Sika Madu stated that it was especially the seraphs nearby to him on the floating platform.[36]

Speaking their names as humanoid appearing seraphs like himself were revealed, Sika Madu mentioned Amon and then Belial, in order. The names Astaroth, then Marbas, and Bathin were also spoken. Additionally, Naberius, also Raum, and Orobas were seen.[37] After Amon declared they would follow his majesty wherever he led, Sika Madu appeared content.[38]

By nightfall, Sika Madu was walking through a corridor with Paimon alone with him. Once the silence was interrupted by Paimon and he was asked what they should do about the experimental subject, Sika Madu gave some thought to how they must dispose of it before they reach paradise or suffer divine punishment.[39]

Angels were said to be forbidden from creating life, yet Sika Madu remained silent at Paimon's words. After Paimon requested the order, Sika Madu spoke his name and in turn asked for him to give a little more time. Claiming to have an idea, Sika Madu explained that Mikaela still has potential.[40]

On whether he had grown attached to what Paimon called a thing, Sika Madu regarded him without a word. Where Paimon said he could not bear to see him punished and the kingdom needed him, Sika Madu answered that it had him too, as well as Bael. He added the two of them could easily fill his shoes.[41]

His expression changing after Paimon began violently coughing, Sika Madu then spoke how he was infected too. Having thought so, Sika Madu questioned why did Paimon hide it. Asked if he created that Mikaela experiment to find a cure for the plague endemic to their kind, Sika Madu answered something must be done. At this rate, even if they do reach paradise, Sika Madu stated that over half of the angels who follow him will die.[42]

Advised that he must not lose his way, and reminded that creating, extending, or reviving life are grave sins, Sika Madu counselled Paimon to not worry. Confident that he will make it work, Sika Madu detailed that by using the power collected by Babel Tower cleverly enough he could get all of them up to paradise.[43]

Don't worry. I'll make it work. Use the power collected by Babel Tower cleverly enough... ...And I can get all of us up to paradise.

–Assurances to Paimon that he can return angels. Chapter 126: "Purgatory and Paradise", page 21

Remaining unresponsive to Paimon not wanting him to be concerned with them, it was after the repeated request to dispose of Mikaela did Sika Madu answer all right. Wanting a little more time to say his farewell though, Sika Madu specified that in five days he would get rid of Mikaela himself.[44]

All right. But give me a little more time to say my farewell. Five days. I'll dispose of him myself in five days' time.

–Rather than Paimon doing it, Sika Madu states he will dispose of Mikaela. Chapter 126: "Purgatory and Paradise", page 22

The confirmation that he really would apparently having been believed, Sika Madu listened as Paimon spoke of his faith in him since he has never deceived them once. After Paimon mentioned with that complete that the path he laid out for them would be followed and they could make for paradise, Sika Madu responded yes they will. Parting with Paimon, he headed off his own way.[45]

Possibly unknown to Sika Madu since the conversation Paimon and Bael had about him was elsewhere, was that what he said was not believed and Mikaela was planned to be killed by them. That Sika Madu would commit the forbidden and be cursed by god was a motivation for Paimon and Bael's course of action. Referred to as his majesty, Sika Madu possibly being cursed as a criminal was a concern for Paimon, whatever his choice it would be supported by Bael. It is said that one of Sika Madu's most beloved servants is Paimon.[46]

Discussed further, Sika Madu getting off with mere death should the betrayal be found out was mentioned. Support for him would come from Paimon who wanted to protect him no matter what, though that it was Sika Madu's choice was mentioned by Bael.[47]

Around this time, Sika Madu was with Mikaela and the homunculus named Yu. In a room together, Sika Madu was sat on a bed with Mikaela's head resting on his lap. For a question from Mikaela on whether he was still not allowed outside yet, Sika Madu answered not yet but soon though. Seeing to it that Mikaela can go outside, Sika Madu asked had he ever broken a promise when asked really.[48]

Mentioning to Mikaela that they may need to move a little way from the city, after being asked if this would be like on a picnic, Sika Madu guessed something like that. That was why Sika Madu needed Mikaela to rest and conserve his strength. When Mikaela agreed to rest, Sika Madu praised him as a good boy. Without further word, Sika Madu departed the room.[49] While Sika Madu is mentioned as father by Mikaela who wonders if he has returned to the room, he apparently has no indication that it is Paimon there.

Unresponsive to the large explosions that blew out sections of the Tower of Babel, he returned to Mikaela's room and was stunned to find both him and Paimon lying deceased on the floor.[50]

What happened?! Mikaela. Paimon. No... How...?

–Shocked to come across Mikaela and Paimon both dead. Chapter 127: "Love or Loyalty" Page 42-43

Reaching towards Mikaela and holding him in his arms, Sika Madu could not believe the situation. He remained there unresponsive as Bael entered the room apparently investigating the noise.[51] Not responding to Bael seemingly revealing he was aware something like this might happen, Sika Madu remained silent when questioned whether Paimon took his own life.[52]

It was after Bael raised how God would never forgive suicide in his words, and began to address Paimon's soul that Sika Madu said for him to not say it. Sika Madu was silent as Bael explained how Paimon loved him more than anyone and wished for him to return to God's side. For his silence, Sika Madu listened as Bael began to process what happened by stating all happens in accordance with God's plan. When Bael tried to rationalize this as another trial, Sika Madu spoke to ask whether Bael was going to tell him that he just has to accept this.

Ever holding Mikaela, he framed it as accepting it and rolling over. It was the same for all of this, every horrible thing. Once Bael felt Sika Madu was still in the middle of his journey yet risked being punished for arrogance, Sika Madu commanded silence. His own broken, Sika Madu would not accept this. Shouting that he did not feel arrogant in the least, Sika Madu was able to express that all he felt right then was despair, along with exhaustion, and helplessness.[53]

In his grief Sika Madu questioned why go on living after this, what was the point. For all his efforts on plans Sika Madu raised how over half of the angels had succumbed to that disease. Sika Madu asked how was that paradise if the only way to get there is by abandoning them.

At that point Sika Madu reacted to a cough from Bael. Realizing Bael was infected with the plague, Sika Madu saw it was him too. For Bael's apology that he would not be able to fight with him to the end, and that he should head to paradise alone, Sika Madu questioned how that was fair. Sika Madu asked Bael did he expect him to go alone. Hearing that was Paimon's wish, Sika Madu enquired what about Bael then. On what Bael planned to do, Sika Madu raised was it to just fall over and die.[54]

Seeing how Bael intended to remain with Paimon and watch over the area for a time, Sika Madu responded concerning the both of them it was not fair at all. Sika Madu began to speak how what in the end he was able to live up to. Hearing Bael state that he never wanted anything from him, Sika Madu appeared surprised as he questioned really. If Bael wanted nothing from God or paradise either, Sika Madu wondered what did he want.[55]

Viewing Bael as he regarded Paimon, after the former stated he would simply wait, Sika Madu asked for what. Registering that Bael mentioned orders concerning aiding his resistance, Sika Madu spoke his name and stated honestly that he was not as strong as everyone thought he was. Informed that he had Bael's support in whatever decision he made, Sika Madu observed him depart the room while carrying Paimon. For his part, Sika Madu turned his attention to Mikaela. By himself Sika Madu felt he was lost, and was unsure what to do.[56]

I'm lost. What am I supposed to do? Mikaela.

–Alone with Mikaela and with his plans come apart. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 16

Outside the built up area of the city, Sika Madu walked by himself amongst many cross-shaped grave markers. His reflective thoughts concern how not long after, Bael committed suicide. Before the graves of Bael and Paimon he considers how the former said it was so his soul would be in the same place. Contemplating how suicide is treated as a grave sin, Sika Madu thought how by committing it both Paimon and Bael were cursed to be forever bound to this place. Where that was here in a sea of graves across a barren landscape, Sika Madu regarded the scenario as them being bound to this hell.[57]

His solitude ended when called to by Amon. Updated that the tower was now ready to return them to paradise, Sika Madu did not turn to address him, neither Astaroth and Bathin who had arrived. Where Naberius and Raum were also present, after a pause Sika Madu responded to the group. Addressing the amount who had perished, Sika Madu asked whether there was a point to returning to paradise without the others.[58]

But so many have died. Is there a point to us returning there without them?

–Responding to Amon on returning to paradise given the angels that have perished. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 20

Physically nearby to a grave marker for Belial as well, Sika Madu was asked by Naberius on what he was saying. Where tens of thousands of years have been invested in this this, Sika Madu also heard Astaroth was keen to return and be the first to reach paradise. Serious in his expression, Sika Madu then proceeded to announce to the group that they were right. Directing them to pass the word onto everyone, Sika Madu stated that they return tomorrow.[59]

Yes. You're right. Pass the word to everyone. We return tomorrow.

–Claiming to other angels it is time to return since the light has been gathered in the Tower of Babel (although he has different plans). Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 22

For those words, back in the seraph civilization Sika Madu was surveying his floating screens of information. Regarding them, Sika Madu considered how the source of both God's power, and angels' life was light. Further, light could make miracles happen.

Using his fingers Sika Madu conjured a large ball of photon energy. For so long Sika Madu among fellow angels worked tirelessly and desperately collecting the light they needed into the Tower of Babel. Where the structure reached into space it was the light to return home, to God's side, at paradise. Beholding his sphere, Sika Madu contemplated but because all light is God's power, as angels they could not create miracles as they wished. If anything taboo was done, Sika Madu was wary of punishment.[60]

Regardless of that Sika Madu motioned for the photon ball to divide into three. Sika Madu thought how three taboos are graver than all the rest, which were resurrection, apothanasia, and creation. The miracle of light was not to be used to bring a life back from death, neither to extend one beyond its natural limit. Sika Madu had also learned that light could not be used to create life where there once was none as that was taboo as well.[61]

Continuing on in any case Sika Madu spoke for the three photon spheres to blend. Resolute in watching them spin into a halo of light, Sika Madu considered how he found a secret. Deeming it a terrible one, Sika Madu discovered a means of using light without God noticing.[62]

I found a secret. A terrible one... ...That let me use light without God's notice. I ran experiments... Testing what miracles I could perform unnoticed.

–Reflecting how photons were manipulated to delve into taboo areas such as life creation. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 27-28

Having ran experiments, Sika Madu tested what miracles he could perform undetected by God. From that, Sika Madu then attempted the miracle of creation, to birth Mikaela. With the visualization of Mikaela appearing as he was in the darkness of his floating panel room, Sika Madu found he had made an angel, and without God's knowledge.[63]

Using his hand, Sika Madu formed a circle above him with an opening to what appeared to be Space. With a coffin being lowered by chains through the portal, Sika Madu observed in pensive silence. Where Mikaela was brought down in the coffin, Sika Madu caressed his cheek and spoke his name. Giving thought to how the miracle succeeded, Sika Madu also registered how he was not punished.

Talking aloud, Sika Madu asked had God forgiven him. This was followed up by questioning or was God testing the limits of his arrogance. Another possibility Sika Madu had in mind was whether God was not even bothering to watch.[64]

Looking to the light above, Sika Madu spoke that if God would not grace him with an answer then he will do it. Placing his hand on Mikaela's he shared how Babel's light would be used for his own purpose. Behaving as if God were listening Sika Madu revealed his further plans by saying first he would resurrect Mikaela.[65]

Continuing to speak to what was assumed to be above, Sika Madu detailed that he had collected enough light to resurrect the lives of all angels and extend them. Such an amount of light had been concentrated into seven keys that Sika Madu further revealed information concerning by saying that they were held by Mikaela. Explaining aloud that power would bring them all back, Sika Madu laid out his plan to God that then they would all return to paradise alive and well.

I collected enough light to resurrect and extend the lives of all angels... ...Concentrating it into seven keys that Mikaela holds. That power will bring them all back. Then we'll all return to paradise, alive and well. Understood?

–Sharing his previously concealed plans to the unresponsive God. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 32

Having asked God whether this was understood, Sika Madu followed up by announcing that he would not go back alone. After stating that they would all go back together, Sika Madu maintained his gaze while awaiting an answer. Perhaps feeling one would not come, Sika Madu spoke how God never graces him with a response. In any case Sika Madu proceeded to initiate his plan.[66]

You never grace me with a response. All right, then. Light. Hide from God's sight... And become darkness.

–Taking precautionary measures anyway before acting to darken the light. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 32-33

Raising his hand to the portal above, Sika Madu spoke for the light to hide from God's sight and become darkness. This action resulted in the circular opening into Space to form into a homunculus. Addressing the homunculus as Yu, he relayed his plan to resurrect Mikaela and bring everyone back. Just as promptly, Sika Madu directed Yu to take all the light in the Babel tower and convert it to darkness.[67]

Yu. I'm going to resurrect Mikaela and bring everyone back. Take all the light in Babel and convert it to darkness.

–Materializing the homunculus named Yu to swiftly commence his plan for the light in Babel tower. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 34

On a platform, Sika Madu watched as the many halos of light high up in Space became blackened. Commenting that there is still no punishment as the now gargantuan homunculus carried out its task, Sika Madu spoke as if God were listening to question then does he permit this. Alternatively, Sika Madu considered if he had hidden it from God that thoroughly. Having nerves as the process was underway, Sika Madu was anxiously unsure which one it could be.[68]

Struck to have his question answered, Sika Madu stared wordlessly at the trumpet owning seraphs that had appeared near the homunculus who was darkening the rings of light in Space. Where the seraphs delivered a charged attack, Sika Madu witnessed the colossal homunculus broken in two by their beam of light. Acceptingly tranquil, Sika Madu calmly spoke "damn, it's no good" as the destructive light blasted into Earth.[69]

There was now a brightest sphere of light crackling with electricity within the light rings, and the seraphs' communications that a taboo had been broken where punishment was being dispensed could be heard. A lightning bolt was emitted from that and came crashing downwards. Remaining where he was stood, Sika Madu spoke aloud to everyone that he was sorry.[70]

Everyone. I'm sorry.

–As the lightning comes down there is an apology to angels in his civilization given that trumpet armed seraphs mean to attack since a taboo has been broken. The First Vampire: "The First Vampire" Page 3

Effected by the lightning strike, Sika Madu endured the power that had broken apart the Tower of Babel in its descent. Remaining upright though slighly bowed, Sika Madu considered how he needed to regenerate, and get clear of the lightning. His hand having blackened from burning, Sika Madu thought to invoke his own light. An apparent greater surge of electricity into him caused Sika Madu to cry out as his skin blackened.[71]

Spoken to by another six-winged angel who he had been approached by, rather than answer his question on why he strayed given that God was awaiting him, Sika Madu could only scream in pain from the burning. His hair having burned away entirely, Sika Madu's skin was then entirely black from the lightning. After the other human-appearing angel spoke how Sika Madu had stooped to personal desire, and condemned his followers to Hell, he called for him to wait. Stating for only him to be punished, Sika Madu spoke that it was just him.[72]

His words not considered, after the six-winged angel announced this was the end of Earth too and generated a meteor shower, Sika Madu damned the situation as he looked up to the tremendous amount of fire projectiles that were coming downwards.[73] Pinned in place by the burning light from the seraphs in Space, Sika Madu would be unable to act as Naberius with Astaroth and Raum were affected by the fiery streaks that could break through bone, and as the meteors crashed into the buildings of the seraph civilization. Referred to as his Majesty elsewhere, Sika Madu would be mentioned by Bathin who directed Amon to assist him. As with the others, Sika Madu would not be able to prevent Bathin from perishing from what was a continuous rain of fire.

Enduring the ongoing lightning pouring over him, Sika Madu angrily regarded the six-winged angel now floating above. Able to sense what was transpiring throughout the city to some extent, Sika Madu struggled to speak before he asked the angel what did he do to his angels.[74] Not responding to the angel's words that the three taboos can cause one to lose gratitude for life and have their soul rot, neither on whether he thought he could become a god, Sika Madu focused on the angels being attacked. Stating that he was the only one who sinned, Sika Madu pleaded for the angel to not take their lives.

After it is stated that the angels would have their souls chained to Hell for eternity, and that God has turned his back on him, Sika Madu remained silent in the fire he is in.[75] Hearing from the angel that one has been permitted to survive, Sika Madu found he was being called to by Amon. Turning and speaking his name, Sika Madu was alerted by him that all the other angels were struck down. Though asked by Amon what should they do, Sika Madu's attention was on what the six-winged angel said about seeing the truth of his sin.

Having realized what the angel meant, Sika Madu shouted no in alarm.[76] His evident apprehension was confirmed when Sika Madu witnessed Amon being murdered by a lightning strike in front of him which resulted in him crying out in distress.[77] After the humanoid angel discussed with the seraphs how all the angels had been destroyed and their souls were bound to the planet, Sika Madu was ordered to be struck by lightning again. As the surge of electricity resumed, Sika Madu kept his pain to himself.[78]

Coming to ask that they kill him, then pleading for it, Sika Madu stated that he longed for oblivion. After the angel detailed that Sika Madu could not die and would suffer burning for eternity to be reborn indefinitely, Sika Madu regarded the being that had a hand in turning him into an undead. Sika Madu heard further that this was his punishment for attempting resurrection and he would burn in his guilt forever, trapped on this empty planet.[79]

As the angel and seraphs with trumpets meant to return to paradise, Sika Madu requested that God be told a message from him. Informed by the angel that the words of a sinner do not reach God's ears, Sika Madu was left alone on the surface as they disappeared from view. On his back and badly burnt, Sika Madu considered how it is gone. Everything, Sika Madu reflected how he had been left alone on an empty world.[80]

It's gone. Everything. I've been left alone... ...On an empty world.

–Incinerating as he considers the loss of the seraph civilization, the Tower of Babel, and all the angels and homunculus from Earth. Chapter 129: "The First Vampire" Page 20

At the moment with the Sun shining above, Sika Madu found that the light left him agonized. Screaming from a different kind of pain, Sika Madu spoke how it hurt. His whole body burnt, and the pain would not go away. Processing how this could not be, Sika Madu stated to tell him this was a lie and he questioned was this really going to go on for eternity. As he crawled along the ground, Sika Madu's body remained blackened with smoke billowing from it. A blackened substance like a trail of blood was left behind.[81]

Millennia passed where Sika Madu indeed remained ever on fire from the sunlight. Sika Madu had made his way to where the intact grave markers for the angels were and seemingly remained in that valley. The smoke rising from his continuous burning was unwavering as it reached into the air. Sika Madu had taken to lying on the ground in agony.[82]

Millennia passed... More time... Tens of thousands of years passed... ...And yet I didn't die.

–As a burning angel on Earth he reflects as the world changes around him. Chapter 129: "The First Vampire" Page 22-23

With what was perhaps liquidized flesh dripping partially from his hand, Sika Madu reached upwards to the sky from where he was lying. Stating that he despised God for this, Sika Madu cursed him. The smoke from him appeared to billow all the more harsher. Reflecting on the tens of thousands of years that passed, Sika Madu considered how he did not die.[83]

For how much of Earth's surface was damaged, by this time there was greenery such as trees and grass fields that had grown. Sitting upright as a blackened figure with no hair or wings while emitting smoke, Sika Madu contemplated how he did not know how much time passed after that. At first, Sika Madu cursed God's name, then took to screaming apologies to the souls of his followers. After that came acceptance where Sika Madu resigned himself to eternity alone with sin.[84]

When Sika Madu accepted what he done however, he found something strange happened. Finding his eyes began to clear as he regarded his charred appearing hand, Sika Madu further saw ways to take advantage of his punishment. Conjuring a black ring, Sika Madu discovered he could form darkness which he spoke for to protect him from the light.[85]

How much time passed after that, I don't know. At first I cursed God's name. Then I screamed apologies to the souls of all my followers. After that came acceptance. I resigned myself to eternity alone with my sin. But when I accepted what I'd done... ...Something strange happened. My eyes began to clear... ...And I saw ways to take advantage of my punishment.

–After accepting what he had done, Sika Madu experienced a change and found he could form darkness to cover himself from sunlight. Chapter 129: "The First Vampire" Page 24-25

In having the halo of darkness encompass over him, Sika Madu could appear from a charred appearance to that of his original restored and unburnt self. His hair and clothing were completely intact as well. Noticing it, Sika Madu saw a black sun like entity appear within a circle of shadow nearby. Able to discern this matter was the homunculus named Yu and not surprised to see it, Sika Madu questioned whether it saw everything.[86]

While the completely formed homunculus reacted, Sika Madu did not shed details on what its response said if he was able to read what its demeanour meant in terms of an answer. On his feet, Sika Madu spoke aloud with the homunculus nearby how last time he failed. Having judged that he would have to be better about it this time, Sika Madu decided that he would bring everyone back too in a re-commitment to his original goal.

Last time I failed. I'll have to be better about it this time. I'll bring everyone back too.

–Reflecting on the failed attempt to have Yu the homunculus darken the light gathered in the Tower of Babel, so unwaveringly seeking a different means of resurrecting the angels who died. Chapter 129: "The First Vampire" Page 27

Addressing how Babel had fallen, Sika Madu mentioned how he did not have it to collect light for him. Pondering aloud further, Sika Madu felt even if he did the light no longer responds to him. Having the impression that he could no longer touch the light, Sika Madu put it down to that he had become a cursed undead. Turning to the homunculus, Sika Madu wondered how was he to go about collecting the power he needed for resurrection now.[87]

His question prodded the homunculus to drop the coffin of Mikaela out from its body. With Mikaela deceased yet his being secure before him, Sika Madu considered the homunculus' practical response to his question by regarding the corpse and saying exactly. Speaking how he had suffused Mikaela with enough light to revive everyone, Sika Madu remembered how it was condensed into seven keys.

Bearing in mind how Mikaela is dead now, Sika Madu registered he would have to resurrect him as an angel. Placing his hand to the glass where Mikaela's face was, Sika Madu wondered how does he do that though.[88] Having given it some thought, Sika Madu concluded that the best way was to copy God. Taking into account how they made angels to collect light, Sika Madu decided that he and the homunculus would too create.

In placing his hand on the homunculus Sika Madu could have a shimmering light radiate from it. Sika Madu spoke how he would make cursed dolls of mud to collect darkness. From his physical contact, Sika Madu witnessed a fully formed human child ejected from the base of the homunculus. For the first human seen on Earth, he regarded him with an expression of disappointment.[89]

Viewing the human child (who greatly resembles Yu), Sika Madu spoke how he thought as much, he is not permitted to create angels but apparently he is permitted to create humans. Where he was also voicing his thoughts aloud to himself, Sika Madu is not seen responding to the child, who is capable of speech, on who is is.[90]

After the homunculus dropped a greater number of them into the world, Sika Madu neither spoke to any of the at least fifteen children seen as they interacted amongst themselves. They were in his mind though. Once again with the homunculus in close proximity, Sika Madu placed his hand on it as he spoke for Yu to make these humans greedy. Guiding the homunculus to instil traits such as making the humans ephemeral, and with melancholy, having them strong was another criteria.

A next directive Sika Madu had was for the homunculus to put in the humans the souls of the dead angels. They were then to be made to breed and prosper. Sika Madu contemplated how he needed more so he could collect all the darkness he possibly could.[91]

Make these humans greedy, Yu. Make them ephemeral... Melancholy... Strong... Put in them the souls of the dead angels. Make them breed and prosper. I need more, so I can collect all the darkness I possibly can.

–Placing his hand on the homunculus, Sika Madu sees these means of having humans gather darkness in order to resurrect Mikaela whose light within the seven keys he holds is required to restore other angels. Chapter 129: "The First Vampire" Page 32

For this, Sika Madu acted of his own accord and had his hands ready radiating with light. Speaking aloud, Sika Madu said for the souls of the angels who have fallen to Hell to be brought to him.[92] At this invocation, individual lights streamed from the cross-shaped grave markers and flew into the human children.

Where he apparently successfully had the angel souls placed into the human children, Sika Madu as before paid no mind to them. Away a short distance, Sika Madu is engrossed with discussing some matter with the homunculus. Regarding something he observes to where he had his attention on the homunculus a moment ago, Sika Madu was so preoccupied with what he was focused on that he had not noticed that the first child he brought to the world had approached the coffin with Mikaela deceased inside and is receiving communications from his son.[93]

Silent as further humans are made, after angels spirits fly into two specific members Sika Madu pays attention to them. Laughing fondly, Sika Madu is asked by one of the two new arrivals who he is. Rather than speak though, Sika Madu reaches towards the youth as the other stands nearby. When they head off to go and see the others, Sika Madu watches without a word.[94]

As he thought, Sika Madu finds the angels do not remember their lives now that they are in human bodies. Feeling that is for the better, Sika Madu concluded it was better they didn't. Continuing to speak aloud to himself, Sika Madu said without their memories they might be able to find happiness in this hell. Human lives were short, and Sika Madu also considered that his plan did not have a high chance of success in any case.[95]

Deciding that he was not going to give up on everyone, Sika Madu stated that he would resurrect all the angels who had died.[96]

Without their memories... ...They might be able to find happiness in this Hell. Human lives are short. And my plan doesn't have a high chance of success. But I'm not going to give up on everyone. I'll resurrect them all.

–Regarding the angel spirits in human bodies, and considering his plan to have them gather darkness as a means of resurrection. Chapter 130: "The First Vampire" Page 8-9

As he engaged with the homunculus and discussed some matter, Sika Madu's attention waa brought to a sound. He took a moment to see that it was made by the first child who had been produced on Earth. Where the child was stood near the corpse of Mikaela, he asked what the youth was doing near that coffin.[97] Sika Madu did not appear to know that it was Mikaela conscious inside the human child. Neither did he notice a part of Yu the homunculus break off to form a plan with Mikaela for them to switch places.

He is mentioned in conversation between Mikaela in the human child's body and the homunculus named Yu. Stated to be really smart, given the possibility of Sika Madu finding out that was Mikaela, there was the concern that he would try and coddle him, and so Mikaela could not get a plan of his own to work. Sika Madu's potential intervention was why Mikaela had Yu the homunculus switch places with him. Getting the better of Sika Madu was also in mind for when Mikaela and the homunculus moved to connect their souls. Stood some distance away, Sika Madu at the time perhaps could not have imagined that after that, Mikaela would erase his own memories, as would Yu the homunculus. Accordingly, Sika Madu would never succeed in resurrecting Mikaela for his soul was really in the human body, and Mikaela's physical corpse was the homunculus imitating it.

Staying where he was and so missing what was a pivotal exchange, Sika Madu again calmly asked who he thought was one of the first humans what was he doing. If it was a surprise for him to see what was apparently a human generate light, the greater surprise was seeing Mikaela rise from the coffin. Not knowing that Yu the homunculus had entered the corpse of Mikaela, it is possible that from Sika Madu's perspective he saw Mikaela as an angel about to enter a human body (which unknown to him had happened, but seeing it as a possibility may have been something he wanted to avoid). At the sight, Sika Madu was shocked and shouted for one party to get away.[98]

Given the homunculus' potential powers it may be the case that Sika Madu did not hear it speak as Mikaela where it bid farewell to the soul of Mikaela, of which the name was changed to Yu since that was the identity the soul of Mikaela was taking on. Upon seeing seven lights blast out in all directions from the corpse of Mikaela, he evidently did not realize this was Yu the homunculus emitting the seven keys of light across the world to make his resurrection attempt harder (as Mikaela had his own resurrection attempt to enact).

Although surprised, Sika Madu reacted swiftly and leapt up in the air. Having the reflexes to grasp one of the light streams, Sika Madu reacted to how hot it was. Upon landing on the ground, Sika Madu looked to see what it was that he had seized, and regarded a cross-shaped dagger in his hand. Meanwhile, the larger form of Yu the homunculus was acting normally ejecting humans as it had been. The only one he suspected of having a connection with these events, Sika Madu asked Yu what did it do.[99]

From the homunculus' puzzled response, Sika Madu considered it for a moment. Thinking how the homunculus would not understand, Sika Madu contemplated how he created Yu and it has no free will. In his thoughts, Sika Madu wondered then what was that. Unsure what happened, Sika Madu felt he should be the only one here with any independent will.

Turning his attention back to the child who was stood near the coffin, Sika Madu was unaware that he was speaking to the human child who had Mikaela's soul within yet had erased his memories. Now walking over to him, Sika Madu asked the child what did he do. Not interested in the reply, Sika Madu demanded that he show him his memories. Placing his hand into the youth's head resulted in his murder. Not remotely concerned with that, what Sika Madu was horrified by was that there was nothing, no memories at all.

After the deceased child fell, Sika Madu coldly remarked it died just like that. He added that human bodies truly were horribly fragile.[100] Placing his hand on the youth's chest, Sika Madu asked aloud whether this was also his punishment. Feeling that the way forward was rockier than he anticipated, Sika Madu considered that these human dolls can barely survive a mere one hundred years. Wondering how much darkness could they gather in that short time, Sika Madu also contemplated how many repetitions would it take. Regardless of what the answers were, Sika Madu concluded this would be a long battle.[101]

Is this also my punishment? The way forward is rockier than I anticipated. These human dolls can barely survive a mere 100 years. How much darkness can they gather in that short time? How many repetitions will it take? This... Will be a long battle.

–Wondering if his punishment is ongoing given the limits humans have in collecting darkness. Chapter 130: "The First Vampire" Page 25

In focusing on his plans, and not paying major attention to the humans around him, Sika Madu would also miss that one of the new humans appeared to have a feeling that there was something they needed to do.

Ancient History

Sika with first Yu

Pre-demon

By the present date, a long time ago, the First Progenitor, known as "Sika Madu", approached the humans Rigr and Urd within a prison cell. Appearing benevolent, he promised them eternal life.[102] In siring the vampires of the Progenitor Council, Shikama Doji created the laws for the vampire race.

In his vampire life, Sika is with Yu as a child and buys Ashera Tepes with the promise that he will keep the boy safe.[103] Active during the dark ages of Greece, from an unlocked memory from Asuramaru, it is recalled that Sika Madu brought Yu with him to a Slave Dealer where he purchased Ashera. Tasking Yu to kindly take off the chains of the imprisoned boy, Sika Madu answers Yu that is a good question when asked if he was bought. Sika Madu tells them all to be on their way.[104]

Leaving, he walks though a market area followed by Yu and Ashera.[105] Turning and smiling he asked Ashera if he was hungry as his stomach was growling. Hearing Yu announce that he is hungry, Sika Madu raises that he ate not too long ago, that Yu told him he had eaten too much and felt like he would pop. Wondering if Yu is hitting a growth spurt, Sika Madu considers his response this time that he will get to be big like him to be rather cute, but cannot the say how big will Yu get. His reaction to Yu's insistence that he is hungry is to laugh and tell Ashera that they are having lunch, so to come with him.[106]

Watching them eat, smiling as he does so, Sika Madu questioned if it was good. Not acknowledging Ashera spill some food, Sika Madu remarked that he holds his spoon nicely, he had heard Ashera used to be nobility. Cheerfully telling him not to get so glum, Sika Madu had bought Ashera not to mistreat him terribly or anything but rather to be a house boy.[107] Sika Madu comments that here they go again when Yu declares that he is going to pop, and mentions that he thinks overeating is actually bad for one's health when asked if he thought Yu had gotten bigger, though he did not believe Yu has gotten smaller. Turning his attention to Ashera to wonder if he had finished eating, Sika Madu mimicked his wording in asking Yu if he had his fill. He has, so Sika Madu decided for them to head home.[108]

Leading the way, Sika Madu did not show any reaction to Ashera discussing as to whether Yu is his slave,[109] neither when asked if he summons Yu to his chamber or what he is using many child slaves for.[110]

Later in the evening, Sika Madu is present in a room where Ashera witnessed Yu turning into a seraph. Despite the drastic change, Sika Madu gently instructed Yu to calm himself, he should be able to stop. Mentioning how he made an adjustment so that he could, Sika Madu guided Yu to take a deep breath, calm himself and stop this. Apologizing to Ashera and stating his timing was not the best, Sika Madu simply advised him to step outside slowly and close the door.[111] Remaining composed, Sika Madu told Ashera to never mind what this is, Yu is not terribly fond of humans at the moment and to hurry up and step outside. He did state dammit when Yu advanced towards Ashera, where Sika Madu intervened to clutch Yu by the neck. Stopping Yu's lunge at Ashera, again he instructed Yu to calm himself. With Yu voicing a desire to kill all humans, Sika Madu held his arm as he instructed Ashera to quickly step outside. Sika Madu appeared unsure of what to make of Yu cutting off his own arm to get to Ashera.[112]

Slicing Yu's head

Decapitating Yu

Although Yu succeeded in his goal of murdering Ashera and had taken off into the night sky with him, Sika Madu also possessed six seraph wings where in the air behind Yu he instantly decapitated him. Commenting only that it was another failure, and he must start over from the beginning yet again, Sika Madu watched them plummet to the ground.[113]

Floating downwards he considered to himself that it will not do to leave the bodies here. Surprised to find that Ashera was still alive, Sika Madu wondered aloud how, with Ashera's heart crushed and his entire skeleton broken, humans do not have anything close to that kind of resistance. Moving his fingers to Ashera's face, Sika Madu uttered that pain is proof that he lives. Sika Madu could see that before Ashera died, some of Yu's blood dripped into his mouth, and that is was compatible. Finding it interesting, Sika Madu noted it seems today is the day. For six hundred years now he has continued his experiments, trying over and over, killing hundreds of thousands of human guinea pigs, but now has finally found one that is compatible.[114]

With his wings outstretched, Sika Madu observes that Ashera has not the strength to regenerate on his own. Contemplating for a moment, he considered having Ashera drink his blood. Continuing to speak to himself, Sika Madu wondered if that is the correct answer, or is it unwise. Tossing Ashera to the ground, Sika Madu concluded that he really rather not make a mistake here. A poor choice might mean six hundred more years before he can find another one.[115]

Picking up Yu's separated unconscious head, Sika Madu asked Ashera what does he think, whether he wants his own or Yu's blood. Either way he says Ashera will never again be able to die. Phrasing the question in a different manner, Sika Madu questioned whether Ashera had a reason to live on, if there is anything he feels he must do. Getting his answer from Ashera's eyes, he deemed it good that his eyes said that he wished to live. Guessing that he will allow him to do so, in exchange he would have Ashera be of use to him. Sika Madu held Yu's head over Ashera and allowed the blood to drip into his mouth. Intently observing that it did not kill him and Ashera is indeed compatible, Sika Madu noted that he will have to look deeper into his bloodline.[116]

Not waiting for Ashera to regain consciousness, instead Sika Madu awaits in a large room filled with cylinder glass tanks with a black substance inside. He is beside Yu, whose head is reattached to his body with a levitating black matter floating above him. Sika Madu greets Ashera by way of registering that he is finally awake. When the dark substance extends tendrils around Yu’s head, Sika Madu casually answers Ashera's question that this place is hell. It is where poor sinners who have lost their way gather, desperately seeking to return to the light, what else could it be. He then suggests if asking the question is the one Ashera wants to ask, or whether there was something he needed to do so badly he just had to live. Sika Madu ends by pointing out that Ashera has the power to do it now.[117]

Aware that Ashera has tracked slave dealers to learn Krul's location then save her from the lady of an estate or not, Sika Madu uses his wings to descend to their location. Speaking how Krul could come back, he mentioned she could still be awoken.[118]

She can come back, Ashera. She can still be awoken.

–Joining Ashera who has found Krul who is deceased, Sika Madu restores her as a vampire. Chapter 116: "Brother and Sister", page 35

Detailing how Ashera would have to make a decision, Sika Madu stated if Krul was brought back now she would never be able to die again. Immortality is torture, a hell that is far worse and lasts far longer than anything any slave has ever endured. With that, Sika Madu questioned whether Ashera was alright with that.[119]

Clear that Krul was dying in peace, Sika Madu asked whether Ashera wanted to see her so badly that he would pull her into hell. When Ashera cried that he wanted his sister back, Sika Madu wordlessly had his arm slashed for blood to fall down on Krul where she was raised as a vampire.[120]

On a veranda, Sika Madu disregards Ashera stating that he accidentally killed Yu and comments on the sun shining with its blinding light. He also does not like the sun, not since he was blamed for crimes and turned into this. Stating that the undisclosed "they" even killed his beloved child, Sika Madu mentions making his own.[121] Finding the deceased Yu irrelevant, Sika Madu was aware that the three of them, Ashera, along with Krul and Noya Hienma, went into that room. Even when he said not to, they did anyway and Sika Madu raised whether they saw him. The corpse of Michaela kept there is Sika Madu's deceased son.[122]

1st progenitor

Last seen 1,000 years ago

Time passed before Sika Madu decided to leave the vampire race for a distant land. With Urd Geales and Rígr Stafford as witnesses, Sika Madu ignored the devastated pleas of Krul as he convinced Ashera to accompany him to an island some call the 'Land of the Rising Sun' and become a demon "for their future." Before the two departed, Sika Madu bestows Ashera's new demon name that would fit the language of the island: Asuramaru.[123] Within Kyoto, Japan, the First had founded a human organization named the Emperor's Demons. They were conducting experiments to turn vampires into demons.

In one interaction, Sika Madu was surrounded by demons Asuramaru, with Kiseki-o, and Gekkouin, along with Raimeiki and Byakkomaru. Declaring them the chosen apostles, Sika Madu requested their help to save the world from the catastrophe that loomed in the far future. Opting out was possible for there would be no glory or reward to be gained before Sika Madu asked the demons if they are determined.[124]

At some unknown point in time, Sika Madu with his apostles were gathered in a room along with Noya as a demon as well. Holding a young Yu who is unconscious, Sika Madu stood near the clear casket containing the body of Michaela, as black suns were floating above them.[125]

Joining Yu in a room where Mikaela was kept in the coffin, Sika Madu raises how he is in here again. Hearing Yu wants to play with Mika as soon as he can, Sika Madu patted him on the shoulder before stating unfortunately enough, his child is currently dead. Registering Yu's claim that he is going to wake him up, Sika Madu felt the idea of a fairy tale prince rescuing the princess to be a lovely idea. Stating that neither Michaela or himself have a gender like humans, Sika Madu cannot say whether or not he can become a proper "princess."[2]

Believing there was a story where a kiss could fix the problem, Sika Madu mentions how no matter the era or the kingdom, they all have a story that plays out in much the same way. Remarking it is funny, Sika Madu supposed it is because humans have genders to differentiate them. After Yu suggests maybe he should try kissing Mika then, Sika Madu replied if he could bring him back with a kiss, he would love nothing more, but is afraid it will not work.[126]

No. It will take a bit more time. I've already devoted tens of thousands of years to this... ...But I haven't created quite enough sacrifices to bring him back.

–Feeling restoring Mikaela will take time, and mentioning sacrifices to Yu. Chapter 113 "Everyone's Secrets", page 5

Affirming it will take a bit more time, Sika Madu explained he had already devoted tens of thousands of years to this, but has not yet created quite enough sacrifices to bring him back. Questioned what a sacrifice is, then glancing at Yu, mentioning that is a hard word, Sika Madu stated he would explain it later. In fact, perhaps he will tell him how it works through a fairy tale.[127]

After thanking him for always being with Mikaela, then wondering if he does not get bored staying in here alone, Sika Madu felt it was good Yu didn't. Mentioning for Yu to keep Mikaela company for him then, Sika Madu was off to increase humanity's numbers a bit more. Called after, Sika Madu asked what this secret was that Yu had. Perplexed that Yu actually had secrets, Sika Madu voiced it was surprising. Clear that Mikaela was dead so he could not talk, hence why they need to bring him back to life, Sika Madu glanced at Yu when told that sometimes Mika will still talk to him.[128]

My, that's one big fib. He talks to you when he hasn't spoken to me, his parent, in eons? If that's true, it's horribly cruel.

–Responding to Yu who says that Mikaela has spoken to him. Chapter 113: "Everyone's Secrets", page 9

Stating that is one big fib, Sika Madu raised how Mikaela supposedly talks to Yu when he has not spoken to him, his parent, in eons. If that is true, Sika Madu deemed it horribly cruel. True or not, Sika Madu felt it was obvious Yu truly cares about Mikaela. Caring a lot about him too, Sika Madu said for him and Yu to bring Mikaela back to life. Offering his hand, Sika Madu affirmed for them to do this together.[129] On an occasion he was speaking with Yu while before the coffin containing Mikaela, he was observed by Ashera.[130]

During his thousand-year disappearance, the First Progenitor soon became a demon himself known as Shikama Dōji. As this, he would possess every head of the Hīragi Clan for generations. While possessing the current head of the family, Tenri Hīragi, he became present in Shinoa Hīragi's body at birth as the result of an experimentation using Tenri's sperm to impregnate a demon-possessed woman. As Shinoa grew older, so did the demon's influence. Consequently, Shikama Dōji was extracted from Shinoa by her older sister, Mahiru Hīragi when the former was very young. Taken into Mahiru, it quickened her transformation into a demon. Shikama Dōji was sealed into a scythe and was used at twice by Mahiru until the demon requested to be returned to Shinoa. As a weapon he was given to Guren to give to Shinoa. While possessing Shinoa and Mahiru, he was also simultaneously possessing the Head of the Hīragi Clan.

Story

When Yu was kept in a prison cell after his father and mother tried to murder him, Shikama Doji joined him there. Where Yu felt alone, Shikama Doji spoke for him to not worry, it would not be long now, and soon Yu would get to meet the one who will give him meaning. It is unclear whether his presence, let alone words were registered.[131]

Don't worry. It won't be long now. Soon you'll meet the one who'll give you meaning.

Events of 2012

Catastrophe Book 5 - Mahiru and Krul

On December 2, 2012, Shikama Dōji appears as a black scythe when summoned by Mahiru in Sanguinem where the demon cuts the bindings holding her to the cross. Later that day, Shikama Dōji is used by a vampire Mahiru to greatly increase her strength in her attack on Saitō. On December 10, Shikama Dōji is given by Mahiru to Guren for him to deliver to Shinoa. With this carried out on December 23, his influence causes Shinoa to lose consciousness.

Shikama Dōji reunites with Shinoa of his own will because they were together from birth. With Shikama Dōji, Shinoa will be able to survive the apocalypse. Since Shinoa can completely close off her heart from the demon far better than Mahiru ever could, Shikama Dōji tells her she is the perfect result of the experiment she was born from, and may contact any number of demons without fear of losing control. Remarking that Shinoa currently has little desire, Shikama Dōji adds she will meet someone who will make her feel it in eight years. After Shinoa wakes up after ten hours of sleep, Shikama Dōji is manifested to protect Norito Goshi from their assailants.

Events of 2020

Eight years after the apocalypse, Shikama Dōji first appears as a manifestation when Shinoa displays her Cursed Gear to Yu. Henceforth he would continue to serve as Shinoa's weapon for her campaigns against vampires who had assumed control of the world, and when Shinoa Squad defects from the Japanese Imperial Demon Army.

Osaka Arc

Kureto attacking Shikama

Stabbed by Kureto

After Kureto Hīragi kills Tenri Hīragi, it is revealed that Shikama Dōji has been possessing Tenri and every previous head of the Hīragi Family far before he came to possess Shinoa. Approaching as a shadow, Shikama materialized in his true form on the side of a building and declares Kureto the king of mankind.

Hello. It seems one who could kill Tenri has finally appeared. So you are the new King of Men.

–Approaching Kureto Hīragi soon after Tenri's death. "Defining a King"

Asking what Tenri said about him, upon hearing that he was described as an old god, Shikama laughs and comments that God was more twisted than himself.

Upon being stabbed by Raimeiki, he greets the demon blade like an old friend before being slammed into a building. When Kureto tries to kill Shikama with Abaddon, Shikama commands the monster to cease its fire, and Abaddon stops. Shikama Doji reveals that he is the reason for the Seraph of the End experiment, and even those will not be able to kill him. Suddenly placing his hands into Kureto in beginning to possess him, Shikama Doji introduces himself as the first vampire.

Where Raimeiki is able to immediately halt Shikama's access to Kureto's heart, the angelic demon is stronger and was about to break through the thunder demon's guard, before being temporarily sealed off as Raimeiki gained more strength from Kureto's greed.

Some time later, Shikama Dōji speaks with Shinoa about her desire to be loved, especially by Yu. He added that Shinoa is much stronger than Mahiru.[132] In attempting to open the door of Shinoa's mind to release her desires, he is immediately stopped by Shinoa herself. Shikama Doji is then wrapped up tightly in chains.[133]

Shibuya Arc

After they arrive at Shibuya, where Guren, with Shinya Hīragi and Shinoa the only ones permitted to enter and meet Kureto, the First has possessed the lieutenant general. Staring at everyone in the room, Shikama Dōji has a smile on his face.[134] When Kureto was attacking Guren, he is seen by Mahiru-no-Yo to be floating behind Kureto, and described to Guren as an unbelievably powerful monster.[135]

Manifesting into his scythe form willingly, he awaits Shinoa inside his realm. Not showing himself, a noise indicates to Shinoa where he is. Appearing in his scythe form instead of his actual appearance behind her, Shikama Dōji tells her he will not be able to show his true appearance anymore unless she opens her heart to him. With this refused as he would possess her, Shikama Dōji explains that he is too busy possessing someone else.[136]

Tempting Shinoa to lower her barriers against him and she should be fine no matter, Shikama Dōji even proposes to share some of his memories, ones that might save Kureto.[137] With Shinoa remembering the value of her life, Shikama raises the prospect of turning Mika back to human, and further suggests a way to return Yu's humanity to him to pique Shinoa's interest. As Shinoa's heart starts to pound louder, Shikama Dōji continues that the demon and angel in Yu will eventually erode away his mind. When Shinoa tells him to stop where he is addressed as a demon, Shikama Dōji says he is not a demon and will reveal what he is if she lowers her walls.

Stating that Shinoa truly wants to save Yu, then declaring that he will eventually possess her instead of Kureto, the First affirms that there has never been a vessel of her caliber in all the generations he has possessed the Hīragi Family.[138]

Grabbing Asuramaru

Forcing Asuramaru to remember

After Kureto was handcuffed, Shikama Dōji's shadow moves from him to follow Yu where he begins talking to Asuramaru in his sword form. Whispering to him as Ashera, when Shikama Dōji enters Asuramaru's mind, he greets the purple haired demon with his original name, Ashera Tepes. With his identity asked for, Shikama Dōji responds by telling Asuramaru that it is time to remember him. When Asuramaru demands that he leave, Shikama Dōji declines, then comes under attack from him.

Noticing and commenting about the current weapon that he is using, Shikama Dōji states he is glad that Asuramaru is doing well, as he summons numerous scythes. When Asuramaru fails to strike him, Shikama Dōji finds himself assailed by swords appearing through the now warped space around his head.[139]

Vanishing, then reappearing closer to Asuramaru to hold him in place, Shikama Dōji tells him it is time to remember who he was, and what was done to him. As Shikama Dōji uses his fangs to bite him, he will not allow Asuramaru to borrow Yu's greed so forms a barrier around them. When Yu arrives, Shikama Dōji's physical hold over Asuramaru ends when he is summoned as a sword to Yu. After Asuramaru returns to demon form manifested, Shikama Dōji comments that watching them side-by-side together brings back memories before adding it has been a long time since he last saw Yu.[140]

Slashing Shikama Doji

Vanquished by Yu

Engaging in conversation with Yu and Asuramaru, he enquires if they are doing well since he has not seen them for a long time. Evident that Yu does not know him, Shikama Dōji explains neither of them have any memories of their past selves. Tempting Yu with information about his past existence, Shikama Dōji's voice possessing a spellbinding effect results in Yu falling into his desires.

Subduing him, the First moves to bite Yu. Speaking that Yu left open his heart because all he wants is to be loved, Shikama Dōji responds to Asuramaru's interjection by directing him to wait and he will take him as well.[141] Where Yu regained his sense of self and just pretended to fall under his control, Shikama Dōji is surprised to be struck. Remarking that Yu is supposed to be another empty vessel, the First is fought by the two of them where Shikama Dōji is seemingly killed. As he disappears into thin air, his remains are carefully disposed of.[142]

Soon after, Shikama Dōji suddenly appears unharmed, alive, and well. Where Yu and Asuramaru have dropped their guard, he tells both they are getting along well, much to his happiness. Promptly shoving his hand into Yu and Asuramaru's chests, Shikama Dōji states he has to kill the two of them now, as curse marks begin covering their faces.[143]

With Shinoa managing to enter Yu's mind by opening a pair of doors, Shikama Dōji is wounded after her scythe is thrown into him. Commenting that this is the first real damage he has taken today, Shikama Dōji compliments her skills. Shikama Dōji tells Yu that Shinoa is in love with him, and that is the reason she came to rescue him, even knowing that it is the one thing she absolutely should not do. After sixteen years she has finally lowered the inner walls of her heart thus Shikama Dōji bids farewell to both Yu and Asuramaru, his goal for today is complete.[144]

Wounding Shikama Doji

Revealing the truth to Yu after Shinoa's rescue

Appearing behind Shinoa, he grabs her by the neck. After Shinoa struggles, with encouragement from Yu bolstering her resistance, Shikama Dōji is amused.[145] Its use limited, a door opens underneath Shikama Doji and he takes Shinoa with him where the door closes behind.[146]

Shikama Dōji is fully awakened, and now possessing Shinoa's body. When Ferid attacks Shinoa to prevent her from becoming a vampire, a scythe manifests and chains sprout from the scythe form, which cuts Ferid's abdomen bisecting him. They also cut off his left arm, with which he wields his sword. After Crowley grabs Ferid's head and throws him against the wall,[147] the weapons start to attack Crowley until his head is slashed off.

When Ferid starts questioning Shinoa if she is the First Progenitor, the First in her body answers what if they were. Questioned what the point of of this destroyed world, the endless, meaningless, human wars, then why vampire bodies will not die, even after substantial damage, Shikama Dōji is blamed for giving this 'Curse' to vampires.[148] The First asks Ferid what would he do if he knew this information, then states that he is not the one who made him immortal.[149]

Shikama Doji attacks Guren and Mika

Awakened, possessing Shinoa's body, summoning scythes

Gripping what remains of Ferid, the First steps out as Shinoa before Guren and Shinya, along with Kureto and Mika as well. Under the impression that there is plotting afoot, the First would like to join in. Deciding to fight the group, multiple scythes are summoned above them.[150]

Sika Madu is remembered from his time during the dark ages of Greece, that at that time he has already been active for six hundred years. Buying Ashera as a slave, his experiments resulted in transforming him using Yu's blood. Sika Madu also possessed six wings in Asuramaru's memory of him.[151]

Back in the present day, the scythes that Shikama Dōji generated shower down on Guren and Kureto.[152] As reports arrive that the Hyakuya Sect have arrived, the First aware that Rigr is behind this movement. Ceasing their attack, the First smashes their way out the window with Shinoa's body.[153]

The First greets Rigr

Greeting Rigr

Arriving where Mirai Kimizuki is being held activated as the Seraph of the End, the First politely returns Saitō's greeting and adds it has been some time.[154] Ignoring Mirai in between them, and Kimizuki nearby, the First warmly asks Saitō how many years it has been, and whether he has been well. Not reacting to Saitō's chains being deployed, or the sudden arrival of Basteya Irclu with another Hyakuya Sect soldier appearing, the First is instead joyfully intrigued what they are all doing at hearing that the unification spell is ready.

Deeming the plot to restrain them as funny, the First regards the opposition as weaklings and asks if they can really do that. They pay attention to Basteya and their accomplice beginning the ritual using spell tags.[155] With Saitō using the chains to stab into his own army, the First deduces that he is absorbing their life energy, and wonders how much more powerful that could make him. Brushing off Saitō's desire to test it on them, the First remarks how dull this is before announcing they will be on their way now. Reaching towards Mirai, the First has their arm wrapped tight with one of Saitō's chains. They free themselves by cutting Saitō's head off with a sweep of their hand.[156]

With Kimizuki taking Mirai away at Saitō's suggestion, Shikama Dōji claims if he joins up with his group he will wind up as his guinea pig instead of theirs. They then address the matter of Saitō's head which is now floating in the air, connected to his body by a chain. Enquiring what happened to his head, the First does not recall constructing Saitō like that. Asking if they cut the chain would Saitō die, the instant the First hears that this is the case, they do not hesitate to sever the neck chain. The result of this action is not the death of Saitō, but an abundance of chains bursting out in all directions which the First runs to avoid.

Saito and Shinoa engage in battle

Engaging in battle with Saito.

Annoyed, the First says that Saitō did not die at all and lied to them.[157] Smashing their way through a window, outside, Shinoa's body produces Shikama Dōji's angelic wings to fly themselves in the air. Where the chains are advancing outwards from the building, the First is confronted with chimera like beasts unleashed by Saitō. Noting they seem dangerous, the First feels it looks almost like a beast of the apocalypse[158]

Having their angelic like wings complimented, the First answers it is ironic having these wings despite losing the sun forever and falling into darkness, all because of a simple taboo. They start summoning ethereal scythes around their angelic wings, before disconcertingly announcing that if Saitō keeps interrupting them like this, then they will punish him. Asked by Saitō if they finally manage to see him, the First can present a smile. With Saitō directing his chains and his beasts to stab the First, they respond with their scythe, ordering the ones summoned to slice Saitō to bits. The collision between the two powers causes multiple, and massive explosions around the area.[159]

Chapter 82 - Page 35 - Panel 2

Sensing Noya's awakening.

Remaining calm, the First's scythes clash with Saitō's chains despite some drawing close to their head.[160] An attack emitted from the battle forms a thin release that has the strength to fire entirely through nearby buildings.[161] Shikama Dōji notices that something has happened, sensing Noya's awakening, and questions Saitō if it is his doing.[162]

Chapter 84 - Page 8

Stopping Saitō from using his trump card.

The battle continues[163] and aware that something happened, Shikama Dōji questions Saitō out of curiosity as to whether he arranged that. The First knows Saitō would not challenge him without a trump card or three, even two-thousand years ago he was not that foolish. The First's power is felt to be stronger by Saitō. Preparing to launch an enormous scythe, the First has no intention of allowing Saitō to use that trump card, whatever it is and affirms that they are done now.[164]

Chapter 84 - Page 21

Noticing Guren's arrival.

Observing Guren's arrival, they ask Saitō if this demon is his trump card. Voicing the intent to kill Guren, scythes are directed at him before the First appears taken aback at seeing them halted by Mahiru and Noya. They are further surprised at noticing a sinful key in Guren's possession when he tosses it to Saitō but is confident that one key is not enough. Interrupted by Saitō who claims that according to his calculations, considering that the First has yet to manifest his real body, three evil keys should be enough to seal him, the First adamantly states it is not nearly enough. All the while blocking an attack from Guren, the First is sure that he cannot hit him with that with what little speed Guren has. The first is then suddenly no longer under attack from Guren as he and his demons are betrayed by Saitō.[165]

Chapter 85 - Page 3

Relinquishing control over Shinoa and allowing himself to be sealed

After Saitō has been dealt with after Ferid's intervention with Jigenso, the First sees Guren, Mahiru and Noya acquiring a sinful key each and is surrounded with a sinister power entrapping Shinoa.[166] Even with the power emitted from the sinful keys, the First is confident they could certainly resist this if they chose to, but that would break Shinoa as his vessel. Conceding, he allows Guren and the others to seal him for the time being. As Guren suggests how about he make it an eternity, Shikama Dōji delivers a final laugh.[167]

Oh dear. I could certainly resist this if I chose to, but that would break this vessel. All right, all right. I’ll allow you to seal me for the time being.

–Enduring the effects of the sinful keys, and relinquishing Shinoa from his possession. "The Guinea Pigs Gather", page 3

Visualized, Shinoa considers that the demon army is Shikama Dōji's creation as she contemplates who they can side with.[168] With Shinoa's scythe activated, it is the cursed gear manifestation, addressed as "Shi" who appears. Obeying Shinoa's order to grab a wall, Shi remains connected to the physical weapon and ends up pulling Shinoa out of the moving vehicle[169]

Post-Shibuya Arc

The historical time in the dark ages of Greece where Sika Madu was approached by Ashera with a deceased Yu is recollected. He was aware they had entered his forbidden room, and discussed the sun. Sika Madu commented undisclosed they also killed his beloved child, Mikaela.[121][122] The First is referred to as Master Sika Madu by Gekkouin who is working with Kiseki-o and Asuramaru in opening a pathway to help contain The King in his own world of desires.[170] Later he is mentioned by Mahiru that Shikama Dōji will be able to locate Mika much more easily and he will go and capture him right away if the curse-amplifying drug they injected into Mika should wear off.[171] In a flashback eight years ago in Sanguinem, he is discussed by Mahiru concerning how she had the first cells implanted into her body, where the Shikama Dōji scythe was manifested. That Sika Madu is using Ashera to this very day was discussed. Shikama Dōji was suppressed by Mahiru injecting a needle into herself so he could not hear the deal she brokered with Krul.[172]

In the present, when Krul attacks Shinoa, her hand is blocked by a barrier and Shinoa now has six large wings, as the First has regained control of her body and was eagerly awaiting what Krul could tell him. Speaking through Shinoa, the First informs Krul that wasn't nice.[173] With Krul proclaiming that he is their true enemy to Kimizuki, and Mitsuba, with Yoichi, then that he want to use Mahiru's sister, and Mikaela as his experiments, the First silences her with a hand. Speaking to the others that Mikaela is his precious son, they are trying to save him, they add that he is their only true ally the squad has.[174]

Suddenly dropping to his knees, the First finds out that his consciousness is fading. When he learns that Guren and Mahiru plans to turn Mika into a cursed gear, the First is steady as he telepathically contacts Ashera. Alerting him that the humans are headed 'there', the First directs him to capture Mikaela's soul before the humans do.[175]

Appearing fatigued in his sphere with a chained Shinoa held above, the First sees her break free. On if this is something he did not anticipate, the First does not reply back.[176] Hearing that Shinoa will keep her heart half closed and possess him, as Shinoa conjures her scythe, Shikama Dōji does the same and fires three of them towards her.[177] These are deflected and Shikama Dōji is surprised that again Shinoa is stronger than anticipated. Responding that she was not this powerful before, he questions if whether she was hiding her strength. Questioned if he is not sure that all of humanity was underestimated, Shikama Dōji is then is stabbed through the chest by Shinoa's scythe.[178]

With Shinoa intending to suppress him to confine and bind him, Shikama resorts to contact Ashera in his mind, yet the communication to capture Mikaela's soul before the humans do is heard by Shinoa. Shocked that she can hear his thoughts, Shikama Dōji is asked if this Ashera is Asuramaru, one of his allies. Where Shinoa reacts by meaning to let Yu know right away,[179] Shikama Dōji will not allow it. Aiming a scythe at Shinoa, it is allowed to hit her where them momentum carries her away from him.[180]

As Shinoa mockingly sticks her tongue out at him and means to awaken, Shikama Dōji raises his hands and orders her to sleep.[181] When Shinoa refuses, and announces she can wake up, Shikama Dōji speaks to force her to sleep to effectuate her to do so. After Shinoa draws upon her feelings, where curse marks envelop her face and a sharp horn appears out her forehead as she becomes a demon, Shikama Dōji fails in inducing her to sleep.[182] Shikama Dōji remains subdued with Shinoa holding her scythe in his back.[183] Word was sent to Asuramaru that he will wake up soon.[184]

Standing with Shinoa's scythe in his chest, Shikama Dōji is roused from his slumber and shares that he is waking. Aware another dosage of the drug has been taken, the First feels it is the same one as before and he knows how to handle it now. Answering if Shinoa's attempts to keep him down are to protect Yu, the First says to let him help her with that desire, he will give her power. With Shinoa raising dark clear barriers around herself, Shikama Dōji comments as expected her heart walls are strong, she is gifted. If Shinoa would let down those walls Shikama Dōji would have made her wholly into a demon, then she would not have any worries at all. Not answering what he is looking at, the First states he is simply glad to be in time. Announcing that he must be on his way now, the First intends to save his precious Yu and Mikaela.[185]

I was simply thinking I'm glad I was in time. I must be one my way, now... ...to save my precious Yu and Mikaela.

–Abandoning his goal of possessing Shinoa in order to save Yu and Mika Chapter 103 "The Sky Awaits Them Both", page 17

Departing, the First answers Shinoa that he has no need to speak of what he is going to do to Yu and Mika, nor is it any of her business. Staying inside the hearts of Shinoa and Mahiru was riskier than he anticipated, so Shikama Dōji thinks he will leave. Thanking her for everything, Shikama Dōji glances back upon hearing he can possess Shinoa. Wondering if this is so she can protect Yu, he feels it is true as he can sense that is the desire Shinoa has hidden in the corner of her heart, then remarks how brave of her. Saying bluntly he is abandoning her, the First explains how in all these millennia, Shinoa and Mahiru are the first to ever surpass the parameters of his plan. Revealing that they make him feel fear, Shikama Dōji adds also reverence, and beauty. However, he still has his objective to complete so once again bids Shinoa farewell and thanks her for everything. After a scythe is cast at him, Shikama Dōji states that is his power. Raising his hand, Shinoa's power is gone.[186]

Within one of Yu's memories from in Ancient Greece that Mika is accessing, Sika Madu is seen walking into a room with Raimeiki, and Byakkomaru, along with Kiseki-o and Gekkouin who are around him. The memory of Sika Madu speaks as the present day one in that it can discern and speak to Mika who is in a past Yu's body and seeing this recollection from his viewpoint. Making eye contact and pleased to see him, Sika Madu is amazed that he could come back to this quite far from the past. Summoning four scythes, he will not let him get away. When Mika shouts to himself that he has to wake up right now and get out of here, Sika Madu speaks for him to sleep. While Mika focuses his attention on Yu who says he can become his demon, Sika Madu can apparently hear this too as he shouts for him to sleep.[187]

With electricity emanating from his hand, Sika Madu attempts to force Mika to sleep. Thinking that it is too soon for Mika to become Yu's demon, Sika Madu feels he can stop him and focuses on inducing tiredness. As Yu speaks to Mika, Sika Madu shouts no, he will sleep.[188] Aware that they are together in a realm talking, Sika Madu speaks that he is sorry, but Mika becoming Yu's demon is not going to happen. Where he stands in the memory featuring the lab like room with his apostles around him, Sika Madu raises his hand to replace that scenario with a barren landscape where Yu and Mika as children sleep before him. Conjuring two scythes, the First remarks that is a lovely dream that they are having, so how about they sleep a while and enjoy it.[189]

In control of at least three scythes, Sika Madu regards the sleeping Yu and Mika and bids them pleasant dreams. Glancing to his side, he remains with his back turned to a large pentagram made out of chains that has appeared behind him out of two coffins. Speaking whether Rigr is still trying to cling, Sika Madu comments this is starting to grow annoying. When the chains fire towards him, glimmering scythes are ordered to shred them while Sika Madu notes how he is already short on time. Deciding if Saito despises him this much then he can die, Sika Madu launches scythes into a coffin the chains are coming out of.[190]

As ever more chains arise, Sika Madu says he is tired of bothering with them so thinks to ignore the situation. Right now he has to pin both Yu and Mikaela with a scythe and make sure they are both properly sealed. Noticing Kimizuki and Yoichi in his location, the First asks who they are. Without a word from them, Sika Madu claims their demons are his servants then questions how they are here. After Kimizuki shouts for Yu to get up, the First appears livid. This was not a part of his plan, and it is starting to aggravate him. While he wants them to die, Sika Madu finds his materialized scythes are slow. Gathering that it is another dosage of poison, Sika Madu declares he has still got enough power to kill them all. Swinging his scythe repels an onslaught of chains. When Yoichi calls for Gekkouin, he orders him to cease listening to that human.[191]

Using his scythe to block Yoichi's archery fire, Sika Madu then finds Kimizuki has drawn close. A coffin has been summoned to send him to another world, and the First shouts the insects are in his way. Slicing Kimizuki at the waist in this demon realm, Sika Madu can move past his scythe being grabbed to attack Yoichi as well. With them out the way, Sika Madu speaks further that it is time to see to Yu and Mika.[192] A surge of lightning, and Yu saying for Mikaela to slice them open leaves Sika Madu shocked as he says to wait.[193]

Attacked by Yu with demon Mika as a sword, Sika Madu notes they are fast, but is sure that he can still bring them under control. With them behind him, the First thinks whether he can dodge this. The poison still hampers him, Sika Madu cannot move as he wishes. Giving it further thought, the First is able to act on them by avoiding the strike. Affected by the "Second Edge, Black Gash" power, Sika Madu knows it is warping space, and it will take his whole head.[194]

Having his head blown off, Sika Madu's wings appear where he has reformed.[195] Standing with his wings outstretched[196] and seeing that demon Mika is devouring Yu's desires, the First speaks for them to stop this, to not merge any further as it is not time yet. Defending with his scythe, and clashing with Yu and Mika as a sword, the First notes the poison is starting to fade.[197]

Yu. Mikaela. Stop this. Don't merge any further. It isn't time yet.

–After being attacked, the First tries to prevent Yu and Mika drawing upon further power. Chapter 108: "Yu's Sword", page 19

Hearing the "First Edge, Pandemonium" activated, Sika Madu shouts for Yu and Mikaela to stop. They cannot use that much power yet, and if they merged any further they will notice. Looking upwards, Sika Madu sees three trumpet wielding seraphs. Immediately raising his hands, the Fist acts to put up a barrier.[198]

Yu! Mikaela! Stop! You can't use that much power yet! Merge any further and they'll notice...!!

–With the "First Edge. Pandemonium" ready, the First is worried at being noticed. Chapter 108: "Yu's Sword", page 23

Seeing that Kimizuki's sword and Yoichi's arrows have struck him in the back, Sika Madu also finds Yu with Mika attacking him. Damning it all, Sika Madu wonders how much of the poison is neutralized. Feeling that it is almost all, the First considers whether he can dodge this. Deciding he can with his strength returning, Sika Madu is slashed across the chest by Mika as a sword from Yu. As the seraphs communicate via sound, Sika Madu has blood also from his mouth and speaks how this is bad.[199]

I was close. So close. Only a little further... A few more steps... and then Mikaela would...

–Struck by Yu and Mika, with the seraphs attacking, the First has tears rolling down his face. Chapter 108: "Yu's Sword", page 33

After a seraph prepares a black arrow, Sika Madu voices how he was close, so close and it was only a little further. As what appear to be tears roll down his face, the First speaks how with just a few more steps before mentioning Mikaela. When the seraphs speaks about executing the fallen angel, Sika Madu says no, not yet, he is not giving up. He raises a flat spherical barrier to defend himself from multiple electrically charged strikes.[200]

Seeking recourse by calling to Rigr and Urd to announce he will tell them all, Sika Madu requests they give him power, now. He remains arms outreached as he is surrounded by chains. Pulled away, Sika Madu covers his mouth. The warning to not listen to them is given, those angels are his, rather their enemy.[201]

Opening his eyes, Sika Madu makes out Saito and Urd before him. Having been taken through Kiseki-o's coffin by the chains, the First finds himself restrained in a prison that is stronger depending on the power of the prisoner.[202] Speaking Rigr's name, Shikama Doji asks if this was all his plan and whether everything went as expected. Questioned in turn whether his own plan has been destroyed, the First asks if he was Saito's only objective, or is there more to it.[203]

It seems we've both underestimated our creations. Someone else stands in the forefront now. I spent tens of thousands of years creating and fine-tuning my plan... ...But this someone outdid me and spoiled it.

–Speaking with Saito and other progenitors, the length of time of his plan, and realizing someone else is acting. Chapter 109: "Moving Pieces", page 38-39

Enquiring about the sinful keys, the First asks how many does Saito hold. From his reaction, Shikama Doji voices it seems they have both underestimated their creations. Someone else stands in the forefront now. Having spent thousands of years creating and fine-tuning his plan, Shikama Doji notes this someone outdid him and spoiled it. Whoever can do that is the kind of person who will destroy the world for personal gain.[204]

Akihabara Arc

When Shinoa is speaking to Guren on whether the apocalypse could have been stopped, Shikama Doji is mentioned in conversation. Suspected it is highly likely that he founded the Demon Army, where they know Shikama Doji did form the Hiragi family, it is all considered to be a part of his plan. Referred to as Shinoa tried to keep her heart shut because of him, it is also said by Guren that it was his plan, not Shikama Doji's.[205] Where Shikama Doji is said to have been plotting these events for untold millennia, he is held accountable rather than Guren.[206]

Remaining in his prison, Shikama Doji is asked by Saito what his ultimate goal is. Answering that he knows that already, Shikama Doji feels if Saito did not, then he could not have interfered as thoroughly as he had. When Saito puts forward that Shikama Doji wanted to bring Mikaela back to life as he was his son, the First is at a loss for words.[207]

Recalled how Sika Madu found Rigr and Urd in prison as humans where he promised eternal life, where Saito feels they were discarded, Shikama Doji questions whether he held a grudge ever since. Knowing that Saito knew about the Emperor's Demons activities to try turning vampires into demons, Shikama Doji is also aware that he began to interfere. Speaking how Saito injected his own genes into the Ichinose family, the First knew how he founded a competing organization, the Hyakuya Sect.[208]

Questioned if he noticed the Hyakuya Sect's one hundred nights meaning name was in reference to the meaningless nights vampires lived, Shikama Doji replies he did not. Where he did not even bother, Shikama Doji mentions first and foremost how nothing in the world means anything. Finding his neck grasped by Saito, he is questioned then why the single-minded determination to bring his son back.[209]

Not answering the question about his son, and then asked what are vampires supposed to do, Shikama Doji suggests how about they become independent for once. Observed that he was quick enough to take control of his Hyakuya Sect, where Saito feels even now he is trapped within his grand plan, Shikama Doji has his neck released and drips blue blood.[210]

When Saito feels sick of feeling manipulated by him, where he himself is currently imprisoned, Shikama Doji attempts to assure him his concerns are unfounded.[211]

You've already cut yourself free of my strings. Just look at me. You have me bound and imprisoned...

–A claim to Saito while imprisoned. Chapter 114 "Everyone's Goals", page 10

Having chains shot into his throat in response, Shikama Doji reacts to the strike.[212] When Saito details the Hyakuya Orphanage that Shikama Doji added to his organization that had been experimenting on and murdering children over decades, Shikama Doji does not comment on that, neither Mika who turned up one day. Asked what Mika is, given the resemblance to his son, and whether he was a vessel, Shikama Doji speaks on Saito's interruption. The First mentions that from Mahiru, to Shinoa, and Yu as well, Saito tampered with them all. After Saito feels Shikama Doji counted on, even planned for his tampering, the First replies he is not god. Speaking for Saito to listen to him, Shikama Doji states they have a mutual interest, yet has a further chain fired into him from an untrusting Saito.[213]

Resorting to another means communication on account of the chains in his neck, Shikama Doji uses telepathy to speak that vampires cannot die. His voice physically affects Urd, with Ky Luc and Lest Karr as well, where the First continues to elaborate that vampires become demons upon death, with no will of their own. They are condemned to a hell of eternal reliance on human desire. What was called a brainwashing spell by Saito is eliminated in response to spell tags being deployed. After the chain clanks to the floor, Shikama Doji remarks that Saito is not a normal vampire anymore.[214]

Silent in response to Saito having taken advantage of the Emperor's Demons and their spellcraft, Shikama Doji also does not comment on the weaponization of the seraph of the end. With regards to where the divine punishment comes from, and questions on what he is and who is chasing him, Shikama Doji regards Saito in silence.[215] As Saito considers what the seraphs would do to the world for the magnitude of a resurrection to bring back Mikaela, he looks down when responding.[216]

Nothing will happen to the world. The price... ...Is seven sinful keys... ...And the lives of every last vampire.

–Mentioning the price of resurrecting his son, Mikaela. Chapter 114 "Everyone's Goals", page 19

Addressing the concerns Saito spoke of, Shikama Doji questions are they not all about ready to die. Feeling they ought to be bored of living right now, Shikama Doji appears under the impression the vampires before him would welcome his attempt to resurrect Mikaela since they could perish as the spell is carried out. Smothered in chains in response, Shikama Doji finds his resurrection goal is firmly opposed by a united front of Saito, now with Urd, along with Lest Karr and Ky Luc.[217] He is to be interrogated thoroughly by them in their words.

Called to by Asuramaru from his thunderstruck demon realm on whether he should let Yu absorb him or not, Shikama Doji does not answer what must be done to make him keep his promise to save his sister.[218] Unclear whether Shikama Doji can even hear him, there is no response to Asuramaru's request for him to answer.[219] Shikama Doji is mentioned when Asuramaru and Yu are discussing trust, and when Asuramaru is wondering whether this is what he wanted of him to save Krul as promised.[220]

Having been nailed to the floor in the back of a truck, Shikama Doji is transported as many long spikes jut out from his arms and body. Taking to laughing to himself, Shikama Doji does not answer Saito nearby on what is so funny. Not commenting on Saito's claim that he has no hope of victory, or whether this is going to his plan, Shikama Doji remains appearing amused.[221]

Closing his eyes, Shikama Doji reveals he has been maintaining an awareness of Yu having confronted Asuramaru in his realm. Speaking aloud how his usefulness is over, Shikama Doji speaks how everything is going as it ought to. Shikama Doji ends by answering Asuramaru's previous question that he should let Yu devour him.[222]

Your usefulness to me is over. Everything's going as it ought to. Let him devour you.

–While transported by the progenitors, the First issues directions to Asuramaru in the demon realm for him to be consumed by Yu. Chapter 117: "Of Monsters and Demons" page 20

In discussing their plans, Shikama Doji is mentioned by Mika when he is asking whether Yu is going to blindly go along with what he wants. Shikama Doji is also mentioned by Yu who is not going to do what he says.[223] The First is discussed by Mika when he is questioning Yu whether he plans to sacrifice the world to bring him back, just as the First wants. Described favorably by Yu for abandoning Asuramaru, his impressiveness from this perspective lies in how he is willing to do anything to bring Mika back to life. Shikama Doji is mentioned by Yu as thinking, knowing what he wants to do, and knowing what battles he has to win.[224]

Mount Fuji Arc

Having been transported to inside a building in Shibuya, the First remains pinned to the floor of a cage. He is unresponsive as Hyakuya Sect members including Basteya Irclu establish defensive sigils around the cage he is in. With blood coming out from the spike wound to the palm of his hand, and from other such injuries over his body, Shikama Doji is facing upwards with Saito above him.[225]

Awake, Shikama Doji does not look too pleased as Saito details how he is going to look into his past, discover what he wants to protect, what his ultimate goal is, and then destroy it. Referred to as a curse to escape from, Shikama Doji has Saito place his hand near him to look into his memories.[226]

When Yu and Mika have entered memories of Ancient Greece, the First is seen. His name is mentioned by Mika, where it may have been a mixed memory of Sika Madu walking among people while accompanied by his disciples. Moving with Gekkouin, Byakomaru, Noya, and Raimeiki, he was also viewed with Krul and Asuramaru.[227] Mentioned due to the concern of him noticing Yu and Mika, he does not react to their presence as the First passes the pillar they are behind. While possibly a memory, it is felt that the First currently feels distant and weak wherever he is.[228]

Physically still confined in his jail in the present time, Shikama Doji has had cables attached to his head. Intentionally exuded or not, resistance is picked up by Hyakuya Sect scientists that Shikama Doji is being monitored by. Drug dosages are increased, yet the First remains looking upwards in silence. Indifferent to Saito stood over him, Shikama Doji does not speak as he hears his mind is going to be poked around. Shikama Doji's head is turned with his neck exposed to Saito's incoming fangs.[229]

As Yu and Mika are accessing memories from prehistory, a seraph and black orb entity civilisation are viewed. The First is mentioned by Yu who is telling Mika there are a bunch of guys who look like him in reference to the winged seraphs.[230] Sika Madu is seen physically in a memory where he was sat in the top floor of the Tower of Babel.[231]

If the First is capable of detecting Yu and Mika in the memory, he does not show it. Even when Yu the homunclus is able to perceive Yu and Mika, the First in the present makes no indication that he knows they are viewing this memory. Sika Madu is mentioned by Yu and Mika and felt to be lying when he told Mikaela that he would get better.[232]

Discussed by Yu and Mika when they are observing Paimon and Bael's conversation, it is felt that Sika Madu is shouldering the responsibility for what happens by himself. Where the First has seemingly created life in an attempt to cure a species infecting plague, and enable everyone to access a paradise, Sika Madu's situation is compared to Guren's.[233] If this situation is hell, then it is mentioned that the First has been stuck in it a really long time.[234]

Kept in his prison, Shikama Doji appears in a state of discomfort as his head has Saito's finger in it where his memories are being checked.[235] While in these prehistoric memories, Shikama Doji has made no indication that he knows others are accessing them. The only possible exception was when he looks in Saito's direction when he says that he will not give up on everyone, and will resurrect them all. Alternatively Sika Madu may have simply been looking in that direction at the time.

From their location in the forest around Mt. Fuji, the First is discussed by Yu and Mika who consider that his goal is to resurrect Mikaela and then use his life to bring all the angels back to life. He is mentioned again by Mika who feels Mikaela wants to save the First, who will then proceed to restore angels and so Guren's plan of resurrecting humanity will not be able to be carried out.[236]

When Mika is detailing how sacrifices seem involved with revivification which God punishes, Sika Madu is visualized holding the deceased body of Mikaela after he found him like that in the Tower of Babel.[237] The possibility of Yu as Mikaela being punished in the First's place is something Mika wants to avoid.[238] It does not appear that Shikama Doji knows that the reason he could not resurrect Mikaela was because the physical corpse was the homunculus named Yu imitating it, where Mikaela's spirit had entered the body of a human.

Where Mika and Yu have formed their own goal to gather the sinful keys and restore Mikaela who has his own resurrection plan, the First is in Yu's mind as one of the super smart members who could interfere with that given his own designs on the keys. Since Shikama Doji is currently restrained, it would be an imagining of him appearing serious as his title is mentioned by Yu.[239]

Referred to in conversation by Yu and Mika, it is felt that he was the one experimenting on them through the Hyakuya Sect. It is also suspected by them that Shikama Doji along with Saito are the ones behind the Demon Army. That there is an angel who was able to burn him way back in the past is also discussed. Either the First or Saito is felt to have used their experiments to make Yu and Mika,[240] namely for their power which was needed to being Mikaela back to life.

Where it was felt Shikama Doji and Saito had been trying and failing a lot, the reason why was suspected by Yu and Mika to be because they thought Yu was Mika, and the same for the other. Almost certainly unknown to Shikama Doji was that Mikaela's soul was within Yu, not Mika.[241] In Shibuya, the First is called to by Yu who announces that his and Saito's experiment succeeded.[242]

When Yu says aloud that he has info about how to bring Mikaela back, it seems the case that Shikama Doji was paying attention to the battle he was having against Ky Luc. Situated in the Experimentation Room on the seventh floor of the Demon Army Headquarters, the First remains nailed in the prison. His eyes open, Shikama Doji softly states Yu's name, which is heard across the cityscape.[243]

Unable to help it or not, Shikama Doji's voice is also heard by the vampire progenitors as well. Communicating via his mind, he adjures Yu to come to him. In stating for them to bring an end to this long tale, it is not known how much Shikama Doji knows Yu is aware of.

Yu. I'm here. Come to me. Let's bring an end to this long tale.

–Adjuring Yu to reach him in the Experimentation Room on the seventh floor. Chapter 132: "Battle to The First" Page 30

He is mentioned by Ky Luc specifically who says aloud how the First is speaking in his head.[244] His plan to have Yu reach him may be hampered by Saito ordering all to not let Yu do so.

Although having been restrained in the physical world, Shikama Doji is within Shinoa's sphere behind her raised heart's walls. Where he looks fine in the physical world, it is here that Shikama Doji appears weary and assailed. On his knees, with the walls lowered Shikama Doji looks up to see Shinoa, who is looking keenly smug.

Where she is gloating on how he was supposed to have everything going to his plan, Shikama Doji speaks how this is bad and adds not now. In response to Shinoa gleefully clarifying whether this is a bad time, Shikama Doji simply speaks for the walls to instigate them to raise once more. Looking ahead as the walls are in the process of raising, Shikama Doji then finds them commanded down again by Shinoa.

Hearing Shinoa state that she is still connected to him, and had chosen a time she knew he did not want her to come, Shikama Doji addresses her as human and questions why she is here. His exhausted expression changes to one of vexation after Shinoa has rhetorically answered whether he was the one who created the Demon Army, also had her created, and set her and Mahiru's fates on a certain course.[245]

Responding with darkness, Shikama Doji angrily readies the verbally invoked power. The stream he fires however collides with a devour ability that Shinoa has prepared. Beholding Shinoa laugh with utter mania, all Shikama Doji can say is damn.[246]

Ready with a different darkness power, Shikama Doji manifests a transparent platter like object. He speaks for it to put distance between them. While he registers the Falling Stars powers that Shinoa has Gekkouin form, Shikama Doji is unable to prevent the two large black bows from striking his arms off.[247]

Labelling Shinoa a monster, Shikama Doji does not respond that he made her this way. On his knees and apparently unable to fight further, Shikama Doji thinks for Yu. With some urgency, he wills Yu to hurry and come to him. As his head is touched by Shinoa he would hear she means to check his entire plan, and then his power will be taken for her own use.[248]

Powers and Abilities

The First possesses expansive knowledge about seraphs, demons, vampires, and humans having been performing experiments for six hundred years. Killing hundreds of thousands of human guinea pigs over this time, the First also created vampires and demons. In acquiring knowledge, he was aware that Ashera was nobility. He also knew how to save Ashera from dying, a supreme ability from the ancient world to the present day.

Part of his experimentation involved allowing it to extend its many tentacle like projections and make contact with Yu's head. The First also managed to reattach Yu's head despite him being decapitated. In addition he keeps a corpse of a "Michaela". According to Noya, the First has the ability to clone Yu's if one should die.

The extent of his knowledge was advanced even during prehistoric times. Within the Tower of Babel, he had access to technology that existed during that time which was far more advanced than anything of the present day. Sorting through information on resurrection and creating servant tribes, Sika Madu delved into forbidden areas such as creating life.

Don't worry. I'll make it work. Use the power collected by Babel Tower cleverly enough... ...And I can get all of us up to paradise.

–Confident he could harness a specific energy source to bring seraphs to paradise. Chapter 126: "Purgatory and Paradise", page 21

Natural abilities

In a seraph civilisation in Earth's prehistory that featured far-futuristic technological aspects, Sika Madu was shown to be proficient in using flat screen computer based systems where he could also understand the text on them. Sika Madu could apparently communicate with homunculus which did not seemingly have any means of relaying verbal signals. He could generate these technological features from mid-air.

A perhaps unrelated, magical based power was the capability of generating a large flat platter to raise others from the ground. Hand movements were involved with manipulating this construct. An innate ability or not, Sika Madu could generate a small sun like orb in the palm of his hand, apparently an example of photon energy.

Accessing memories is a power Sika Madu had. Physical contact was required, yet in placing his hand into a subject's head it would result in their death for memories to be accessed. Being able to view memories would be a trait demons would innately have in future ages, where the ability had developed so that physical contact was no longer required and memories could be seen from afar.

Vampire

He would have possessed strength and speed that are much greater than a human's, along with having rapid regeneration, in addition to immortality and eternal youth. As the former First Progenitor, Sika Madu was likely the most powerful vampire that has ever existed, vastly more powerful than the members of the Progenitor Council which was composed of Second Progenitors and lower ranked vampires. Urd Gaeles and Saitō were such members, with the latter saying that the gap between him and the First Progenitor is great when Saito expressed shock that Ferid was able to capture Krul. The First has been shown to be capable of effortlessly overtaking and decapitating Yu with a single swift strike from one hand despite Yu being in his seraph form. His supernaturally fast sense of speed also allows him to swiftly approach and deal with threats including ones wielding cursed gear.

Having been changed into the first vampire, Sika Madu quickly gathered that he was burned by sunlight which pained him greatly and promptly set him entirely on fire. His hair having burnt away, Sika Madu appeared as a charred body. For all that, Sika Madu weathered the agony rather than seek shade. This vampiric trait of being burnt by sunlight would be passed to others turned into vampires, though the means of mitigating harm from sunlight would be addressed in later ages.

AAAAAAAAAAAAA It hurts! My whole body burns! And the pain won't go away!

–Susceptible to a new pain, that from general sunlight. On complete fire from that, smoke billows from his burning body. Chapter 129: "The First Vampire" Page 21

It was his powers of darkness that he was able to generate that provided Sika Madu with protection from the Sun. Although ostensibly a vampire, this capability may have been innate to him yet in any case would be a darkness based power that demons of later ages would be able to use. Further to this demon like power, Sika Madu could materialize clothing and not just restore his biological self.

Darkness. Protect me from the light.

–Speaking for a halo of darkness to form, Sika Madu could restore entirely his previous unburnt appearance and no longer experience burning. Chapter 129: "The First Vampire" Page 25

In his new cursed state as a vampire Sika Madu felt that he had been cut off from accessing the light linked to the Tower of Babel. With this, using light for resurrection purposes no longer seemed practical. Accordingly, Sika Madu as a vampire-like being would set about gathering darkness.

But Babel's fallen. I don't have it to collect light for me. Even if I did, the light no longer responds to me. I can't touch it. Not now that I've become a cursed undead.

–Feeling he no longer has access to that light and how that compounds his means of gathering it. Chapter 129: "The First Vampire" Page 27

Demon

As stronger vampires make stronger demons, Sika Madu continues to be the most powerful known being in existence as the demon, Shikama Dōji. Able to exert total influence over over the Fifth Trumpet in control of Mirai, and the demon Abaddon under their control, Shikama Doji can bring the collective actions to a halt with one command from afar.

Halt. Goodness. Don't tell me you meant to kill me with that? That is an experiment I have had humans working on for me for quite some time now. It is not yours. Besides, that is not enough to kill me in the first place. Now then... I shall possess you next, Kureto.

–After taking control of the Seraph of the End, the First is aghast at the notion it could be used to kill him. Asserting it is his, he then acts to assume control over Kureto. "Defining a King"

Capable of floating on the side of a building, as with other demons, the First can possess humans.

  • Demon's thrall: If other demons are to go by, Shikama Dōji may enter the dreams of his host and use their memories to torment them in a battle of wills to possess their body. Shikama Dōji has yet to be shown using this ability.
  • Possession: A basic demon ability, but Shikama Dōji is able to somehow possess more than one person simultaneously as he was able to be with Mahiru and Shinoa while still possessing the head of the Hīragi Family. After possessing Shinoa primarily she inherited his ability to summon scythes and use his angelic wings.
  • Near invulnerability/immortality: Shikama Dōji has implied that essentially nothing, not even a Seraph, can kill him. Even after getting stabbed and electrocuted by Kureto's lightning based cursed gear, Shikama Dōji still appears to be unharmed.
  • Supreme angelic/demonic command: Shown to have command over Seraphs and demons as he ordered Abaddon and Mirai to cease their attacks and they complied with his one word order.
  • Other host thrall: Shikama Dōji can enter other hosts and he can have complete control on the host body, such as when he entered Asuramaru mind and is able stay there even if they would force him away as Asuramaru was unable to.
  • Barrier sealing: Able to form a barrier, he can seal who he has contact with in it. They can be kept with him and prevent them from escaping, displayed when he was forming one to prevent Asuramaru from escaping to take Yu's greed.
  • Basic form: He takes the form of a scythe with a glowing green blade. Shinoa can call out the demon to attack an enemy. A manifestation-type demon weapon strongest at mid-range. Shikama Dōji himself can summon numerous scythes as a means to attack.
  • Miniature form: A black pen-length rod that is more convenient to carry. This can be wordlessly materialized into the fully sized scythe.
  • Perception: The weapon can detect anything that comes within the radius of his scythe.
  • Manifestation: At Shinoa's orders, a large smoke like creature can be manifested that will attack whoever she chooses. It is shown he can materialize on his own into his scythe form if he wants to as he did in Shinoa's hand.
  • Scythe proficiency: An expert in wielding scythes, Shikama Dōji can materialize numerous scythes and attack from a wide radius. Not losing this ability when possessing a host, in Shinoa's body he can also levitate scythes for barrage assaults as well. Additionally he can summon numerous ethereal scythes, and whirling them rapidly forms a circle similar to a halo appearance of scythes as a particularly effective and deadly attack. A seemingly endless amount of scythes can be generated.
  • Sleep inducement: A verbal command to sleep can result in a target violently hurling to the ground. Sika Madu having his hand outstretched may contribute to a pressure that can fracture the ground and result in an electrical generation around him. The force of which he speaks the words and the amount of times the order to sleep is said appears to heighten the likelihood. He has used this ability to try and prevent targets from fleeing. When successful, the target does not appear to know that they are asleep.
  • Telepathic communication: Shikama Dōji can telepathically talk and communicate to other vampires. Purposeful or an unintentional a side effect, they experience great pain in their head upon hearing his voice.
  • Distance: A transparent tinted glass like circular structure can be formed. From Shikama Doji's words for it to put distance between them it may have literally been able to put some space between him, helpful for when a foes close by is absorbing his powers.

Able to detect and neutralize poisons injected into humans to affect him, it seemingly takes a degree of time for the First to deal with them.

Dammit... Damn it all! How much of the poison is neutralized? Almost all. Can I dodge this? Yes, my strength is returning. I can dodge this.

–Attempting to put up a barrier against seraphs, and considering his state (he would not be able to dodge Yu and Mika's attack as he thought). Chapter 108: "Yu's Sword", page 27

All the while, Shikama Doji remains an incredibly formidable opponent and can fend off multiple assaults from vastly overpowered entities for a while.

Seraph

  • Endurance: Sika Madu's being is capable of withstanding a combined lightning strike emitted by a charged sun-like orb that trumpet wielding seraphs are able to generate. While it kept him fixed in place, at some point he felt able to clear himself of the lightning bolt. Although he was burned Sika Madu could endure it for a prolonged time.
  • Regeneration: While being attacked, Sika Madu felt he could regenerate his wounds from burning lightning.
  • Life Creation: Although it is a taboo for angels to do so, Sika Madu is able to manipulate light into creating life which he done to form Mikaela.
  • Fortitude: Having endured burning for millennia, and alone with no interactions from others, Sika Madu upon recovery could behave exactly as he was with no impairment to his psychological functions. Having no notions of revenge, Sika Madu as ever calmly set into carrying out his resurrection plan in a different manner given restrictions on his powers now.

Shikama Dōji says he is not actually a demon, and possesses six large feathered seraph like wings. Even after being bound to cursed gear, Shikama Dōji has not forgotten any of his memories or the knowledge he has where other demons have. He exerts control over other seraphs, and makes a comment on the nature of god that seraphs are associated with, while denying that he is a god himself. He is referred to as a fallen angel by seraphs. Sika Madu can generate barriers, including a clear circular flat screen that can defend from seraph arrows. Where there are assumptions that he may be a seraph or demon, Shikama Doji's blood is blue.

We mustn't use the miracle of light to bring a life back from death. Or to extend a life beyond its natural limit. Or to create life where there once was none. But...

–Knowing taboos, and how they can help with what he wants. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 26

Where a select group of seraphs armed with trumpets could generate an electrical sun-like sphere based attack, Sika Madu could endure that strike centered on him. While doing so, Sika Madu revealed that he possessed the means to regenerate himself, and from injuries that broke apart a homunculus and the Tower of Babel.

Need to... ...regenerate... Get clear of the bolt... Light. I...

–Weathering a lightning blast that broke apart the Tower of Babel, and able to regenerate his being. His own capacity to form light was to be resorted to at this trying time. The First Vampire: "The First Vampire" Page 5

Scientific abilities

It has been stated and implied by the oldest of the vampire Progenitors, Urd Geales, Rigr Stafford, Ashera Tepes, Krul Tepes and Noya Hienma that Sika Madu during his days as the First Progenitor frequently dabbled and experimented on supernatural entities using both what appears to be scientific and magical methods with varying results. Such scientific experimentation was used in an ancient setting, and during a period of intellectual stagnation in the wider population. Sika Madu also has a large room filled with cylindrical glass tanks with multiple black suns.

There was even more advanced technology that existed for him in the time of Earth's prehistory that Sika Madu was also familiar with. Levitating flatscreen devices bore information, and the Tower of Babel that was to return angels to paradise was an example of a construction technological in nature. Such constructs were present at a time when angels had outposts on satellite kingdoms spread across planets.

Human creation

As seen during the memories of the three third progenitors, and supported by Noya, Sika Madu had successfully created what they called his "human creation technique". Successfully creating a method to produce Yūichirō Hyakuya from a single disembodied eye, he could be created as a fully formed child capable of speech and featuring his mannerisms. These appearing to serve as an everlasting supply of test subjects for his seraph experiments to make it more stable. From Noya's view, Sika Madu had created so many that he would not notice if one or two Yu's were murdered by him. Although the exact process of how he accomplishes it is unknown, it was stated that the method itself was still imperfect over one thousand years ago in Ancient Greece. However by the time of the 21st Century, it was stated by Noya that Sika Madu had already likely perfected the method due to him seeing the fully functioning and mature, Yūichirō Hyakuya. He was also impressed with what he saw as a Mikaela. Through unknown methods, Sika Madu was casual in mentioning how he would enact growth in human numbers.

That's good, I suppose. Well, keep Mikaela company for me, then. I'm going to go and increase humanity's numbers a bit more.

–Informing Yu of his plan at hand. Chapter 113: "Everyone's Secrets", page 6

In the prehistoric past, Sika Madu displayed how human children could be brought into the world fully whole and capable of thought and speech as children of their age would be. This was done by physically contacting a homunculus where a light based power would result in a human being ejected out of the being. For the ancient timeframe, where homunculi were not seen to exist but black suns were that may have been a means to an end of forming humans. For initally forming humans, Sika Madu required them to gather darkness where creating angels was not an option for him.

I thought as much. I'm not permitted to create angels. But apparently I am permitted to create humans.

–Regarding a human child produced from a homunculus. Chapter 129: "The First Vampire" Page 30

Humans gathering darkness for him was a method to resurrect Mikaela. Once that was done, Sika Madu sought the seven keys of light within him to resurrect angels that had perished.

Seraph experiments

It was also apparent that Sika Madu also possess the knowledge and research and complete the method to either create, or summon the Trumpet of the Apocalypse and placing it inside a human host. With him having been known to repeatedly experiment on making one and was seen to have repeatedly placed them inside his Yu clones. Having the Japanese Imperial Demon Army continue this, Shikama Dōji would comment that the Fifth Trumpet within Mirai that could summon Abaddon was his experiment. Warning that seraphs were an enemy, Sika Madu sought to delay Mika becoming Yu's cursed gear so as to not draw their attention. These seraph based experiments appeared a recent development relatively speaking given that Sika Madu was not able to create angels in the prehistoric past.

Vampiric experiments

He was interested that Yu's blood is compatible with Ashera having turned him into a vampire. Allowing Ashera to live, Sika Madu would have him be of use to him. It was third progenitor vampires specifically that Sika Madu had transformed into demons, and with the second progenitors left it would seem having vampires turned into demons for his purposes was a plan. During his reunion and battle against Saitō, the First was surprised at the additional features that he had implemented into his body. Speaking about him as if he were a construct, Shikama Dōji mentioned he did not recall putting Saitō together like that.

These experiments appeared to have started in Kyoto, Japan. In the past, Sika Madu had travelled there and founded a human organization named the Emperor's Demons. A religious sect on the surface, they were conducting experiments to turn vampires into demons. The vampire experiments apparently originate from himself, where true to his word he was the first one having been changed into an undead either by God's or other angels' capabilities.

Quotes

Seraph of the End: Vampire Reign

It's all right. There is nothing to fear about becoming a demon. I shall stay with you always, even after you have become one.

–Speaking to Ashera Tepes in a flashback of 1,000 years prior. "Progenitor's Memory"

Come, it's time we left. You must become a demon. Oh yes, what should I call you once you've become one? Hmm... Since you will be reborn on an island some call the 'Land of the Rising Sun,' let us tweak your name to fit their tongue-- Yes. You shall be called Asuramaru.

–Updating Ashera's name to Asuramaru to fit in with Japan. "Progenitor's Memory"

Aha ha ha! Oh, I am not God. He has a far more twisted personality than I.

–Laughing in response to Kureto's words and denying he is god, then commenting on his personality. "Defining a King"

My name... is Shikama Dōji. I am the first vampire.

–Sharing his name to Kureto, and revealing his background. "Defining a King"

Aren't the virginal the ones who have the most lustful imaginations?

–A question for Shinoa. "Shuttered Shinoa"

Aha ha! You know that full well. She was sixteen. She was so passionate about everything, wasn't she? Both in life and in death.

–Speaking to Shinoa about Mahiru when asking how old Mahiru was when she slept with Guren. "Shuttered Shinoa"

Don't you think it's about time you opened that door? You can build walls in your heart. Tall, thick walls. Those walls will keep the love and the lust... the joy and the sadness... all of the emotions at bay.

–Pressing Shinoa to lift the emotional restrictions on her emotions. "Shuttered Shinoa"

What does a human have if they have no passion?

–Working towards Shinoa embracing her emotions. "Shuttered Shinoa"

You lie. You want to experience love. When you watch Yūichirō Hyakuya, you feel your heart race. Why don't I get this ball rolling by opening that door?

–Picking up on Shinoa's feelings, and taking them further. "Shuttered Shinoa"

Ashera, you poor child. You must have been so frightened. But it's all right now... From now on, I shall keep you safe. Yu, kindly take off his chains.

–When Sika Madu buys Ashera Tepes as a slave, where he had a young Yu with him as well. "The Day the Sun Was Lost"

Don't play innocent with me. I see straight through you. You know who I mean. You know it all. You just pretend that you don't notice. You're playing at being the dispassionate observer.

–Objecting to Shinoa's claims. "Hiragi in a Cage"

I won't. I can't. You were not made so that I could. You have a heart of ice, so that no matter how much of your heart is devoured by a demon, you can retain perfect control.

–His comments when denying that he is trying to possess Shinoa (which he later would do). "Hiragi in a Cage"

You lie. You are interested in a way to save Yūichirō. Aah, at this rate it won't be long before your walls come down. When they do, I'll no longer need Kureto Hīragi. I'll be able to possess you instead... I can hardly wait. In all the hundreds of years that I've possessed the Hīragi Family, not once has there been a vessel of your caliber--

–Feeling Shinoa is lying, and that it is only a matter of time until he can possess her. "Hiragi in a Cage"

You liked looking up at the sky. At least... that is what you once told me.

–Reminding Asuramaru of his words. "Inside Yu's Sword"

I see you two are as close as always. That makes me so happy... But I'm afraid your days of being friendly and close are over. I have to kill you now.

–Hinting of Yu and Asuramaru's past familiarity, but meaning to murder them. "Love Awakens"

I knew she was amazing. That is the first real damage I have taken today. Tell me, Yu... Did you know? She is in love with you, you know. So much so that she came to rescue you, even though she knew that was the one thing she must never do. Out of desire for you, she finally lowered the inner walls she kept tall and strong for sixteen years. To save you... To rescue you... She allowed me in. My goal for today is complete. Goodbye, Ashera. Yu. Until we meet again.

–Revealing Shinoa's feelings to Yu and Asuramaru, then about to succeed in his goal to possess her. "Love Awakens"

As I expected. Your heart's walls are strong. You're gifted. Oh well... If you'd let down those walls... ...I would've made you wholly into a demon. Then you wouldn't have had any worries at all.

–His response to Shinoa raising barriers around herself, and views on her and demons "The Sky Awaits Them Both", page 16

You can't. Not yet. It's too soon for you to become Yu's demon. I can stop you. Sleep!

–His thoughts on Mika responding to Yu, and his plan revealed for them both. Chapter 107 "Angel's Plan", page 3

I'm tired of bothering with you. I think I'll just ignore you. Besides, right now I have to pin both Yu and Mikaela with a scythe... ...and make certain they're both properly sealed...

–Disregarding Saito's chains rising before him, and turning his attention to Yu and Mika as children sleeping nearby. Chapter 107 "Angel's Plan", page 31

Your demons are my servants. How are you here?

–Aware that Kimizuki and Yoichi have demons, and stating that Kiseki-o and Gekkouin are his servants, then unsure how they reached him in his realm. Chapter 107 "Angel's Plan", page 33

This was not a part of my plan... ...and it's starting to aggravate me. Die.

–After hearing Kimizuki trying to rouse Yu from his sleep, and materializing a scythe for him and Yoichi. Chapter 107 "Angel's Plan", page 33

Poison?! Again! However... ... I've still got enough power to kill them all!

–Aware that he has been poisoned, this time only by seeing his slowed scythe generation. Sika Madu is indeed capable of striking away many chains that are stabbing towards him. Chapter 107 "Angel's Plan", page 34

You're in my way, insects!!

–Coming under attack from Kimizuki and Yoichi where Kiseki-o's coffin has appeared to send him to another world. Chapter 107 "Angel's Plan", page 36

Can I dodge this? The poison still hampers me. I can't move... ...As I wish. But I think... ...I can still...

–Thoughts on an attack coming his way, and taking into account his own limitations (he would not avoid the follow up attack). Chapter 108: "Yu's Sword", page 10

It's warping space. It'll take my whole head-

–Considering the "Second Edge. Black Gash" power, and correctly guessing its effect. Chapter 108: "Yu's Sword", page 11

The sinful keys. How many do you hold?

–Captured, the First has a question for Saito. Chapter 109: "Moving Pieces", page 38

But, unfortunately enough... ...My child is currently dead.

–His crestfallen response to Yu happy at the idea of playing with Mikaela. Chapter 113: "Everyone's Secrets", page 2

Something like that, I believe. No matter the era or the kingdom... ...They all have a story that plays out in much the same way. Funny, that.

–Mentioning how fairy tales that feature a poison apple or spindle are universal across time. Chapter 113: "Everyone's Secrets", page 4

If you could bring him back with a kiss, I'd love nothing more. But I'm afraid it won't work.

–Aware that Yu's kiss would not bring Mikaela back to live. Chapter 113: "Everyone's Secrets", page 4

Hmm, that's a hard word. I'll explain it later. In fact, perhaps I'll tell you how it works though a fairy tale.

–Willing to explain words, such as "sacrifice" to Yu using stories. Chapter 113: "Everyone's Secrets", page 5

Thank you, Yu... ...For always being with Mikaela.

–Thanking his experiment, Yu. Chapter 113: "Everyone's Secrets", page 6

A secret? What is it? You actually have secrets? Surprising.

–Having not considered that Yu has secrets. Chapter 113: "Everyone's Secrets", page 7

You know that already. If you didn't, you couldn't interfere as thoroughly as you have.

–Answering Saito who asked what he is plotting, and aware of his intervention. Chapter 114 "Everyone's Goals", page 2

She can come back, Ashera. She can still be awoken. But you will have to make a decision. If she's brought back now... ...She'll never be able to die again. Immortality is torture. A hell that's far worse... ...And lasts far longer than anything any slave has ever suffered. Are you all right with that? Your sister is dying in peace. Do you want to see her so badly... ...That you'll pull her into hell?

–Upfront about what bringing Krul back entails, and checking if Ashera is fine with him resurrecting her which is a possibility. Chapter 116: "Brother and Sister", page 35-36

This won't work either.

–Sika Madu reading text on technological like screens. Chapter 125: "Soft Serve with Father" Page 3

Yu, hm? I see. Still, I don't recommend naming them. When you name a thing... ...You could curse them with a heart.

–Sika Madu's reasons for being against naming a homunculus. Chapter 125: "Soft Serve with Father" Page 17-18

It's a curse. If they have hearts, they'll be stuck with concerns and doubts.

–Sika Madu's view that naming a being is a curse and what is entailed from his perspective. Chapter 125: "Soft Serve with Father" Page 19

To curse you, of course.

–Sika Madu answering why he gave Mikaela a name is naming someone constitutes a curse. Chapter 125: "Soft Serve with Father" Page 19

Yes. I love you.

–Sika Madu pats Mikaela who appears sad and at elast tells him what he wants to hear, however genuine the words are on his part. Chapter 125: "Soft Serve with Father" Page 22

What's this?

–Sika Madu is unfamiliar with ice cream, that is available freely outside the tower he occupies in the larger seraph civilisation. Chapter 125: "Soft Serve with Father" Page 23

I told you not to eat anything they offer in the city. You have a weak constitution.

–Sika Madu speaking of what he said to Mikaela and revealing his infirm state. Chapter 125: "Soft Serve with Father" Page 23

Are you going to tell me that I have to just accept this? Just... Roll over and take it...? All of this? Every horrible thing?

–Holding Mikaela while responding to Bael attempting to rationalize what happened. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 6

In the end... ...I wasn't able to live up to-

–Beginning to speak earnestly to Bael. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 12

Not long after... ...Bael committed suicide. He said it was so his soul... ...Would be in the same place as Paimon's.

–Reflecting what happened to Bael after Paimon was found deceased. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 17-18

Then I attempted the miracle of creation, birthing Mikaela.

–Recollecting how he tampered with the third taboo, where Mikaela was visualized fully formed as his was. Chapter 128: "The Wings of Icarus" Page 28

This can't be. Tell me this is a lie! Is it really going to go on for eternity?!

–Registering how he is now burned by the Sun having been turned into an undead. The First Vampire: "The First Vampire" Page 21

Trivia

  • The Katakana for his appearance in chapter 57 of the manga accidentally spelled his name as "Shigama Dōji". This was corrected in the official published volumes. The past Yu addresses him as Siga Madu, which may be a child's pronunciation of it, or a variation of the name Sika Madu was known by.
  • This demon is the only one known to possess multiple people at one time thus far in the series.
    • He possesses Tenri Hīragi at the same time he is with Shinoa and Mahiru.
    • After Tenri's death, he possessed Kureto Hīragi at the same time he was possessing Shinoa.
  • His name as a vampire was "Sika Madu", and this became "Shikama Dōji" when he turned into a demon.
  • Shikama Dōji is described as an unbelievably powerful monster by Mahiru-no-Yo, an unknown monster by Guren, and a strong monster by Asuramaru. All potent indications of his strength coming from them.
  • Shikama Dōji already had three pairs of white wings as a vampire (as Sika Madu) even before becoming a demon. Chapter 126 "Purgatory and Paradise" would reveal why, Sika Madu's species was an angel.
  • He ruled as King of Earth long before humans had evolved. On that, Sika Madu was the one who established humans on Earth by means of a homunculus.
