[English] [Translation] Devilman G 2 by zindryr

Thu, 24 May 2012 05:24:32 +0000

This translation is not reserved for anyone in particular, all I ask is translation credit if you decide to scanlate with it. I am also open to any proofreading you or your group might want to do.

Also, a quick note, I am not a HUGE fan of Devilman (only saw some of the OVAs when I was about 13) so I don't know any of the naming standards that exist currently. I expect to learn them as I go along translating this. If I mispell a name I'd appreciate it if you point it out to me so that I can correct it and not get it wrong in the future.

*Lines with a star at the end are most likely not going to be in the volume releases. You'll only see it in the magazine scans.

Cover
I can translate this if you want but it doesn't say too much.

Page 01
An emerald in the sky... Earth.

It's said many years have passed in our pursuit of it...

The world is in pain!! A colored cover for two issues in a row!!*

How fun!!!!

Page 02-03
With a tremendous reaction! The violence and action genre is reborn!!*

A colored cover and a huge 46 page count!!*

Page 04
Fudo Akira has completely changed!!*

Uh, er.

Hey...

What?

Are you...

really Akira?

... What could I be other than Akira?

Of, of course!

Yep, you're Akira all right.

Ahahah. (small text)

Page 05
Somethings weird!

You're a completely different person ever since yesterday.

To put it nicely, you're wild. But on the other hand, you're a punk.

Listen, if you're messing with me you better quit!

It's not like you.

I'm not messing with you.

How ever I am, it's my choice.

... After what happened,

anyone's personality could change

here and there.

... Yeah...

That's true...

People change...

Page 06
Been a while...

Since I've had flesh...!

Guess it's time to warm up...!!

Ch. 02 SO BAD BOY

The hero, Amon.

I never thought we'd face him here!

Come to your senses.

He shouldn't be accustomed to that body yet.

No need to fear!

Page 07
Amon!

I will take your power and your body, got it!?

Hmph. I don't know who you are.

But you're just a brutish puppet...!

Much too big

for target practice!

Thousand Cutter!!!

Page 09
Buahahahah!

Hawawah...

Saber Chop.

Tch.

Irritating.

Page 10
I'll cut them down

all at once!

Sonic Arrow!!!

Uh.

You are certainly powerful, Amon.

But I...

Page 11
will be attacking you

from the inside!!!

Heheh. My little clones have the power to control any organism.

They'll soon enter your bloodstream and go into your brain...!

Now settle down and--...

Oh, is that right?

Unfortunately for you...

Page 12
My blood vessels are violent.

Micro Termination Beam!!!

Gyaah!

Agyah!

I don't think even one will make it all the way to my brain...

Wha-...

Page 13
Funeral Kick

Page 14
Gyahh!

W-...

Wait, Amon!!

What?

Gonna beg?

Won't work.

N-No!

This is my last request!

Fuse with me!!!

Page 15
We demons evolve by taking power from other organisms when we fuse with them!

You must have fused many times to get to your current state, right!?

I don't care if I disappear.

I want to become your power!!!

You'll have the vitality and flexibility of a mollusk or an ivy plant.

I bet you'll find it useful!

So please, Amon...!

Fusion...

Huh...

I haven't heard that cry in some time.

Page 16
Not interested!!!

Unfortunately...

I like my current form.

The only thing you punks can give me is your lives.

Also.

Has my prolonged absence made you forget what they used to call me!?

He rejected an invitation to fuse.

That's heresy.

He hasn't changed a bit...!!

All that's left

is you.

I must retreat for now

and tell my master

of the current situation.

Page 17
That "Amon, the Fastidious Killer"

has been reborn...!!!!

Get back here you bastard!

I haven't had enough violence!

Slasher

Wing!

Page 18
Wha-

What!?

My wings aren't appearing.

I'm losing

strength...

Page 19
...Ah.

...What is this?

My whole body hurts.

What a poor body this is.

A girl? A human one...

Who?

Miki.

Oh yeah.

This body's memories...

This is Makimura Miki.

And I'm...

Akira

Akira!

Waah! You're a live!!!

Fudo Akira

Page 20
Are you okay?

Do you hurt anywhere?

Did you break any bones?

Nah.

This is nothing.

Oh, oh that's good.

Your leg is all healed up too!

Hey, do you remember what happened?

What... happened?

You were desperately chanting your spell and I... I mean a demon came out,

and I possessed... I mean I was I was possessed and transformed.

Then I fucking destroyed those other demons. That about it?

...Yep.

That's pretty close.

...I think.

Man. You've got everything under control.

God, I was worried and everything!

Page 21
Yeah.

I do have everything under control.

Including my intense hunger!!

Page 22
Wha-...

M-Makes sense.

Now that you've calmed down you're hungry.

What's going on!?

My body won't move.

The moment I tried to eat her I went all numb.

I don't believe it, but maybe...

Fudo Akira's body is rejecting me!?

Let's go to a family restaurant.

Er. I don't think I want to eat meat now though...

Maybe I should have made this summoner girl my host.

But wait,

if I did that...

I'd probably

turn out like this!

Hm...

Page 23
Hey, Akira.

Hm?

Those girls...

really died...

They were killed all because I...

summoned those demons...

Yeah.

Nothing you could've done.

Humans are nothing but food for demons.

Yeah...

The same goes for me you know!?

Kh.

I knew it, I can't...

H-... Hey, don't be so sad.

Everyone gets unlucky sometimes.

It's not your fault...

O-Okay.

Okay, you're right.

Page 24
Hero Amon.

I see that if you go against your host you won't be able to manifest your powers...

Heheh.

Page 26
Thank you, Wakui.

What were the results of your field work?

... I have

two items to report.

We were unable to find the host.

My sincere apologies.

Dr. Rainuma.

Page 27
Really? No success?

You even had four with you. I don't believe this.

You're so incompetent!

I could laugh!

Silence!

You two ended up in similar situations, did you not...?

There's nothing you could have done better. But you must hurry.

We have very little time left to us.

... And what was your other report?

...Sir.

Well...

During our search for the host a human we encountered made "contact"...

and summoned Amon, the greatest hero of demonkind, into this world!

Four of my subordinates were killed by his hands.

Massack of the Insecters. Magoad of the Dinozoa. Jurad of the Alruna. Droma of the Bestia.

All died in battle...

Amon...?

Page 28
Amon!?

Madam!

You're awake!

Just who...

Just who is Amon...?

Amon the Fastidious Killer!?

Wagreb, you are certain!?

Yes, madam.

I saw his terrible powers with my own eyes.

Page 29
Madam.

Please do not worry.

That's right!

If we hit him with everything we've got,

he's nothing to be scared of.

Don't be conceited!!!

You will complete our current mission as soon as possible!

Challenging Amon is absurd!

Y-Yes, madam.

No matter how many people I eat, I'm not healed...!

I will obtain true power when I can take my other half, my summoner as a host.

Once that has happened I will destroy Amon myself!

It seems the time has come to use them, Madam.

Your left and right arms...!

(background of this panel: Noooooooooooooooo!)

Page 30
Ghelmer of the Aquarians!!!

By your will.

Here I am...

Agwel of the Gnomes!!!

Go forth!

Everything for our queen,

Madam Sirene's world conquest!!!

Page 31
Good morning.

Morning.

Hey morning.

Good morning.

Morning.

Hm?

You wait there, Fudo.

What's with your clothes?

And you're empty-handed!

Where's your uniform?

Oh that.

Ripped it up yesterday.

Besides, I wouldn't ever wear that uncomfortable thing.

What!?

You're talking like a completely different person...

You're an honors student, what happened!?

Baffling...

It doesn't matter!

I, Alphonse Louis Steinbeck the Third,

on my honor as a teacher, will not allow delinquency to spread!

Brats like you just have to wear your uniforms, no matter how uncomfortable!

Freedom is an adult privilege!

Page 32
What an annoying old man.

I'll destroy you!

Akira!!

Uh, um. Mr. Alphonse.

Please let him off.

Akira's a bit off today.

He's feeling the after effects of being possessed by a demon,

so he's acting just like someone from a gang!

A demon?

Possessed?

What are you talking about, Makimura?

You're pretty so I tolerate your daily cosplaying.

But I will not accept your habitual lies about being a witch or whatever.

Now get out of the way!

You heard him Miki.

Move.

No! No! You can't!

You're not stronger,

despite your ego getting larger!

Heh-Heh. Come at me!

I'll show you the brawling powers of a high school teacher!

Ah! I can see the Tennis club's panties!

Where!?

Page 33
Whoa.

Some human garbage.

Oh man.

He flew pretty far.

Page 34
Wai--

Wh-What?

He fell out of the sky...

Eek! It's Alphonse!

Pull him out!

Get your act together!

Did you break in because you're not satisified with just spying on us!

The swim club members are all telling me to kill you this time.

Y-You've got it all wrong, Ms. Aoi.

I was warning Fudo Akira about his clothes at the gate and he threw me all the way here.

This was against my will...

I see you're finally out of real excuses.

...I don't believe it myself...

Page 35
Stop being a moron, let's get to first period.

Wahoo! I'll go with you!

Don't touch me!

You want me to sue you?

Umm.

Now when you differentiate the manganese dioxide with the past participle of the Japanese beautyberry,

the chlorophyl forms a triple alliance.

You got tha-...

Damn it Fudo!!

How are you so so completely asleep!!

Shut up!

I'm getting ready to break shit during my rest time here.

You want me to throw you onto the roof this time!?

Page 36
Tch.

I'm wide awake now.

Guess I'll eat something.

Miki! Wallet.

What!

Why my money!?

And this is only second period!

Hey man. You think Fudo from Todaiji Temple is acting a bit strange?

He was the 2nd most diligent in his school work behind you.

Yeah.

Heheh.

Page 37
So...

I think

you dicks know how serious I am now.

Razor Tetsu.

Fist Jo.

Chain Manjiro.

Now I want all the money that you bastards stole from the mighty Fudo Akira in the past...

You'll be giving it back starting tomorrow, with interest.

1,000 yen a day plus you follow my every order.

He--

He's so strong...!

Page 39
Take that!

Damn.

You call yourselves fighters!?

This is irritating.

You call yourselves martial artists!?

Why can't I find people to fight...

after I was been sealed up in this body.

I've slaughtered thousands, tens of thousands of demons. I was praised as a hero!

I am Amon, the damned fastidious killer!

I can't get enough violence.

I want enemies...

I want wars...

I want pain!!!

Page 39
You're possessed by a demon...

That's what it is, right Akira?

These aren't the after effects of possession... it's still inside of you.

Relax.

I'll save you!

Miki.

Back off!

I'm perfectly sane!

And you caused all this originally, anyway!

That's right.

That's why I'm taking responsibility and doing an exorcism!

Leave this world, devil!

Aglon, Tetragram, vaycheon stimulamaton.

Fine, fine. I'll leave.

Next up is the Kendo club.

I'm itching to beat them.

Page 40
Idiot!

This was the first time

the demon hero Amon felt this.

Though it was a surprise attack,

it was humiliating to be struck in the face by a woman's slender arms.

What's this?

What's this? What's this?

Ah...

It hurts...!

Page 41
What is happening to my host Fudo Akira?

And just who is this Makimura Miki!?

I wonder...

Was it all a dream...?

I mean.

It's weird no matter how you slice it.

After everything that happened on the roof there wasn't a trace of it left.

And no one knows anything about anything!?

No way you could clean all that up in one night.

But... How much of it was a dream?

Did it start when we went up to the roof? Or when the demons appeared?

Page 42
I think... I'm going insane!

I hope I forget everything... when I wake up tomorrow morning!

And those three will be alive...

Miki.

Sorry, but it was all real.

My uniform was all ripped from when I transformed.

And isn't it weird that we'd both have the same memories from a dream?

The mountain of bodies... that evidence was hidden by something not human most likely.

Not human?

You mean demons...?

...No...

I don't care what they're called.

But... they seemed to be looking for someone.

They had a picture.

I don't think... it's over yet.

I get the feeling... they're trying to do something.

They might even have allies.

But.

But... if they are.

If they are, then I...

Page 43
I must...! I must fight them...!!

I will find out who these demons are and what they want... and protect everyone!

I mean...

I mean, I am a witch.

I've learned the powers of the devil.

I'm a true witch...!!!

Miki...

You're so awesome.

But breathe easy.

I'm with you.

And I'm

not the weak Fudo Akira I once was!

Page 44
The hell am I doing,

As long as I'm with you...

talking to my food like this.

Page 45
I'll protect you from the demons,

Miki.

Akira...

Hey Aoi, did you hear?

About Fudo Akira.

Yep.

Heard he was pretty violent earlier.

I thought he was a pretty meek kid. Not bad!

Good job, you delinquent!

I'm touched.

Moron!

This is nothing to laugh about.

He sent 5 kids to the hospital. That's just not normal.

I wonder what happened...

Everyone he beat up was big in sports.

It's fine.

And men who get a little rough are pretty rare these days.

I like it.

Page 46
Besides...

I know you like it a little rough, Jun.

Moron!

Where there is desire, there is a demon...!!*

I'll head home first and make dinner.

What do you want to eat?

You.

God, you moron!

Continues in the August issue!*

I forgot that there was a preview chapter as well, so I just finished that up. Not reserved for any scanlations, feel free to use it so long as you credit me for the translation. Open for proofreading for flow should you wish to do so.

Page 01
Oh?

You've never met up with anyone like this before?

That's right!

I'm super nervous.

Me... Me too...

Preview

The world's such an interesting place now.

Three people who'd never have met in their normal lives

can now invite other bored people in the same area out for a walk,

and end up wasted a few hours later.

All hail the internet and cell phones!

Ahahah! For real!

A preview of Takato Rui's big, new serialization!

Ch. 0 PERSONA

Well, Susumu, Sacchan.

I'll be heading out...

See ya.

We'll catch a cab.

Let's drink again sometime!

Mr. Deathmask!

Page 02
Oh I'm sooo drunk.

You gonna be okay?

I don't wanna walk.

Huh?

But you have to.

Should we find a place to rest?

Umm.

Should we?

Maybe we should.

Heheh. So easy.

The world truly is an interesting place these days.

Page 03
... Ah.

Hi...

Wha-

What? Mr. Deathmask!

Uhh what're you doing?

It's morning already.

Did you miss the last train?

Ah.

No...

I smelled something nice, so...

I just...

Chased after it.

Heheh...

Huh?

Mmh I knew it.

That nice smell.

It's you, Sacchan!

Geh.

Just a minute.

Don't come any closer.

You're gross.

Don't be like that.

I bet Susumu's flesh

was delicious, no?

Bastard...

But I...

I want to eat you...

Page 05
Illuge of the Harpies!

As you wish, I will eat you!

Uh-oh.

Jinmen

of the Reptillians.

Page 06
Ack!

Page 07
Aahhh!!

Hahehehe.

So good.

Demon or human,

you gotta fuck the bitch while eating her.

So tasty, Sacchan.

Wait for me Susumu,

I'll get to her stomach soon!

Page 08
Damn!

This turtle...

ate me...

I'll curse you!

Jinmen! I'll curse you!

Gehahahahahah!

Curse more! Curse!

Those cries are the greatest dessert!

Page 09
Present day Japan!

Tokyo! A city that lives by survival of the fittest!

Something inhuman

has begun worming its way through the shadows.

They are called demons!!!

Translation is basically prepared for scanlation should anyone be interested. It's free for use just as long as you credit me with the translation. I'm open to proofreading changes for flow and the like, but should read fairly well as is.

Anyway, Go Nagai is back with some excellent Devilman action and fun. This one is based around the Grand Grimoire and the occult. Not anything out of the ordinary for Mr. Nagai, though.

Enjoy.

The ring of Solomon.

Once upon a time, King Solomon of Israel

received from Archangel Michael

a magic ring with the name of God carved into it.

This ring

gave the power to hear the voices of plants and animals,

and to even call forth and subdue demons.

Page 05
King Solomon enslaved 72 demons

and had them build a huge temple.

Afterward, he sealed them into a brass vase,

and dropped them to the bottom of a lake.

This happened

over 3000 years ago...

Page 06
Miki!

Sorry, you were waiting awhile.

Weren't you?

You're so late, Fudoh Akira!

You take too long in the restroom!

Sorry, sorry. I got stuck cleaning.

Again!?

God, learn to say no!

You're so timid, makes you an easy target.

Page 07
Join a club, get some muscle!

Men get their confidence from power.

Hahah. No way.

I can't do that.

I'm just not into it, personally. Competing against others.

I don't like working out either.

Okay, okay. Whatever.

You're so ladylike, Mr. Fudoh Akira.

Aren't you?

What? What gives?

You say that but aren't you part of the Go-Home club, too?

I'm different.

I'm in training to become a witch.

That agaaaiin?

My childhood friend Miki

is a bit of an odd girl.

Page 08
She's believed that she's...

a witch

ever since she was little.

Ch. 01 Little Magic

Bam!

Look upon my right hand!

This is the legendary, famous ring of Solomon!

Wow! So cool!

... What's that?

Listen and be amazed, Akira.

This has the power to summon and subdue demons!

D-Demons?

That's scary...

I am present day Solomon.

Kneel before me!

Heheh.

Page 09
When we went out to play,

it never ended up normal...

I order you by the great power of God.

Oh Demon! Heed my will! Appear before me now!

Aglon tetagram vaycheon stimulamathon.

Boom!

Master.

What is your will!?

Bring me juice and a biscuit!

As you wish.

Hey guys.

Tell me if you need anything.

This is a secret,

but I can call forth demons.

I'm a witch.

Huhh? Demons? Witch?

No idea.

Gross nerd.

Everyone laughed at us when we started school.

Page 10
I was so embarrassed that,

I stopped playing demons with her, but...

her faith

never wavered...

Miki is still

Ah.

I need to buy some chicken from the butcher.

Ugh.

Another sacrifice...

Nope. Mom wants to cook one tonight.

Oh, okay...

a witch.

Hey you two.

Page 11
A nice walk home together again today?

Makes me jealous, heheh...

Ack.

Himura?

Hey Miki. Come hang with us for a change.

Going home with a bitch like this isn't fun.

Oh, you're pretty cute.

That some cosplay?

Come play with us.

No, thank you.

I'm pretty busy, unlike you lazy bums.

Don't say that. How long have we been friends?

We were just in middle school together.

I wasn't your friend.

In fact, I hate you.

Page 12
Don't, Miki.

Let's go now.

Hey! Don't touch me! Shoo-shoo.

I'll catch your stupid!

Ah! Why can't she just ignore them?

This is how disasters start.

Even still.

I'm persistent.

Kyah!

Miki!

Whoa there.

Urgh.

You stay back, little bitch.

You damned punks!

You'd better keep your hands off Akira or else!

Page 13
So gutsy, Miki.

Just my type.

But shouldn't you be worried about yourself right now?

I don't mind forcing you to come with me.

You scared, little Akira?

That's no good, your lady's getting attacked.

Too bad.

If you hadn't run into us,

I'm sure you two'd be on your way to a hotel right now.

N-No.

That's wrong.

I mean.

Uh, you see.

Um.

There's a reason we go home together.

It's like this, my parents died in an accident when I was young.

So I've been in her family's care for over ten years because they're distant relatives of mine.

So she's basically family, you see.

Living together, huh?

I'm jealous.

Sharing is caring, so how about you share?

We could be brothers.

Oooh, good idea.

Let's do it, Himura.

Page 14
Be silent, scum.

What you don't know is that I'm a true witch.

And if you keep messing with me,

this treasured ring of Solomon will cover you in fire!

Hahah.

Always lost in your own world.

I like that as well.

Bring it then, little witch Miki.

A fireball, a familiar, anything...

Heheh.

For the likes of you?

I don't need to rely on astral powers.

A much simpler magic should suffice.

Ohh?

What kind?

This kind.

Page 15
Sprint, Akira!

Okay!

For real!?

Ahahah! All too easy!

Serves you right, punks.

Now you know the magic of my ring!

That...

wasn't magic...

More like a weapon.

Page 16
Hm?

What's wrong, Miki?

They'll catch up to us.

We need to get to the street.

Okay.

It was nothing.

My imagination.

... I think...

Page 17
And then!

I knocked him out with my witch's fist!

That's my sister!

Akira, you were useless in comparison.

I can't look up to you as a man at all.

Listen, Miki.

What if they'd pulled out a knife?

Akira was right, even if it isn't cool.

Tare,

Thugs are very persistent.

It's better to run away than to fight them.

Yes.

Tokyo is getting more and more dangerous these days.

Page 18
According to data from the police, the number of missing persons reports filed in just the first half of this year is twice that of the entirety of last year.

Apparently there's a possibility that... these are some kind of organized kidnappings targeting the general public.

We must be vigilant.

And it's not just the human world.

If you take a look at sites about urban legends on the internet,

all of the recent first-hand accounts are of monsters eating humans!

There's a turtle with people's faces in its shell.

A woman whose stomach is a mouth.

All sorts of shapes and sizes,

but they're all carnivores.

This is just like when the world was full of monsters, no?

Like how the plastic surgery boom in Korea at the start of the 21st century resurrected the split-mouthed woman.

Monsters that eat humans down to the bone.

Does any of that lead to these disappearances?

Ack!

An army of man-eating monsters!

I don't wanna see that!

I'd pee myself.

Hmm.

Perhaps it's some sort of evil spirit.

Maybe they were summoned by an evil Magus

and he's controlling them...?

Page 19
There might be an element of the unnatural behind these missing persons cases.

That means the time where a witch's powers are needed has arrived.

We must certainly be vigilant.

Like I'm saying, Miki.

That kind of thinking is dangerous!

Page 20
Really!?

And you just let her go?

But this little baby was crying, man!

Fuahahah. That's so uncool, Himura.

Shut up!

She sure was fine.

A bit crazy though.

Miki.

Hey.

Let's get her for real next time.

What you think, Himura?

Oh? Still down?

Wait. You can't possibly be in love.

No way, moron!

Mikiko, go buy us some drinks.

Um.

Hello.

Page 21
I'm looking for someone.

Have you seen this person?

Nope.

Sure haven't...

Who is it?

I see.

Thank you for your help.

Heeey. You leaving us already?

Let's have some fun, babe.

Page 22
What's this? You're pretty aggressive.

You say you're looking for someone,

but you're really out looking for men.

H-Hey, Mikiko.

We should, too...

What?

No way.

Idiot.

Page 23
Mguh.

Hey now, that sounds fucked.

What're you guys getting into over...

Page 24
there...

Page 25
Waaaaaaaah!

What's wrong?

Ahhh.

Nooo.

Don't eat me.

St-

Stop. Stop.

Page 26
I'm sorry.

I won't be bad anymore.

I'm sorry.

Mommy.

Mooommy.

What was that!?

What was that, Himura!?

Fuck if I know, moron!

Fuck if I know!

Page 027
Help me!

Gyaahh!

Page 028
Mikiko?

Page 029
Yeah.

Kawamoto Mikiko from our class.

We haven't heard from her for three days.

And she apparently hasn't been home, either.

Have you seen her?

Akira.

Seen her?

No...

Have you already given this to the police?

Well yeah.

But Mikiko's been hanging out with a bad crowd lately, skipping class and staying out nights.

So they're not really taking it seriously.

She's actually a pretty honest girl.

We're checking everything we can think of.

But we've got no clues.

Well if you don't know, you don't know.

Let us know if you see her.

Bye.

Wait.

Maybe I can help.

Maybe I can find her.

Are you free tonight?

Page 30
... Wait...

Summoning magic!?

You're shitting me, right?

No, no...

Listen here. We are serious about this.

Are you saying that some demon is going to pop out and tell us where Mikiko is?

Not exactly.

But.

Close enough.

We're going to follow instructions from an ancient grimoire and call a demon here.

Then, ask it where Mikiko is.

Help me,

your belief and the power of your desire is the key to success.

She's nuts.

I won't do this.

Wait...

Let's try.

I've heard about her before.

If you're looking for something or something's troubling you then you should see the witch of Class B.

She's helped people find their phones,

helped friends kiss and make up,

and even found the porno library made up of books that the teachers had confiscated from the boys and were secretly enjoying.

Well.

Where

do you think demons come from?

Dunno.

Well... Hell? Maybe.

Hell? Something like that...

If we're talking in a Christian sense, something like that.

Demons fought with God and were sent to Hell.

They're an evil existence that tempt man.

Those who try to commune with the demons for their own desires, and those who try to borrow their power are to be punished in the name of God.

That's the reasoning that caused the witch-hunts in the middle ages.

Present day magical thought is a bit different.

A demon just comes up from Hell,

and does your bidding like a fairy or a gnome.

... Well, it's not that innocent.

At the beginning of the 20th century,

sorcerers of the "Golden Dawn" in various secret societies described it like this.

Page 32
"Magick is the art of causing changes in consciousness."

Aleister Crowley

"The fact of gods, qliphotic forces or even Invisible Leaders really exists is relatively immaterial, what matters is that the universe behaves as if they existed."

Brodie-Innes

What, you mean like a placebo!?

Can you really find someone with that!?

Yep.

Placebo is one way to put it.

A better way is to think of it

as a theory of realistic spells.

Be aware of a spiritual existence from within,

then you picture it working in your soul.

This will cause your thoughts to turn positive,

And a new solution could come to mind.

In other words, present day demons don't come from Hell,

but they come to help you from your own unconscious self.

I see.

Err...

You have a point.

Maybe.

Akira! Prepare the candles and incense!

Okay, okay.

She's so lively...

Page 33
Is this enough for the magic circle?

Cardboard and markers...

A bit shoddy.

It's fine!

It's written that they used to carve them into goat skin long ago.

Like I said, what's important is our conscious, not our tools.

Let's begin.

Don't leave the magic circle.

No idle thoughts. Relax, relax.

Chant after me.

Okay.

The demon will appear in the water's surface.

You won't be able to see it clearly like you see in comics.

Bring about the change in yourself to believe that it is there.

... "Emperor Lucifer."

"prince and master of the rebel spirits,"

"I implore you to come and speak to me."

"In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit."

"I command and entreat you."

"In vist."

"Demon Virsago."

"You, who speak of everything past and present, hidden and lost."

So much...

Where do we start...

Just leave it to her...

"Come noiselessly and without giving off any offensive scents, respond in a clear and intelligible voice."

Elohim, Ariel, Jehova, Agla, Tagla, Mathon, Oarios, Almoazin...

Arios, Membrot, Varios,

Pithona, Majods, Sulphae, Gabots,

Salamanddrae, Tabots, Gnomus, Cellis, Godius,

Aqua, Gingua, Janna,

Etitnamus, Zariatnatmix...

What's this?

My ears are buzzing?

So much.

Come to me now!!!

Page 35
Th-Th-Th-They're here!

No way!

Really!?

Page 36
This isn't...

How are they so clearly visible?

And uh.

Everyone else can see... them?

Really...!?

We're looking for someone.

Have you seen this person?

Huh?

... Nope.

Wait, stupid!

Listen here, Mr. Demon. We're the ones looking for someone.

Ah, no!

If you leave the magic circle...

You haven't seen her.

Then,

we have no use for you.

Page 37
Ah.

Huh?

Eh.

Eh?

Eh...

No text.

Page 39
Kyaaaaaaaaaaaah!

What is going on here!?

What is this!?

What did you summon!?

I... I don't know.

I don't know.

I didn't do anything.

Aren't you a witch!? Do something!

I'm a witch!

I'm a witch, but....

Well.

I've never had demons appear bef--...

No text.

Page 41
Nooooooo!

Mama!

Ah.

Ahh.

Ah...

No...

I'm going to

die too.

And Akira...

Page 42
Gah!

Akira!

Page 43
My...

My, my leg.

My leg.

Ah.

Ahahah.

Ahhhhh.

Ahhhhhh!

This...

This is...

my fault...

It's all...

I'm paying for my sins.

Have to be.

I don't actually believe in demons,

but I said I was a witch and acted the part.

So real demons

came from hell to kill...

Run!!

Page 44
Go on.

Miki.

Give your parents,

and Tare...

my regards.

Forgive me.

Please forgive me...

I'm not a... I'm not.

I'm not a witch.

I'm not...

Page 45
"Prince Lucifer."

"I am satisfied with you at present."

"I leave you in peace and I will permit you to retire."

Miki!!!

What are you doing!? Run away now!

"I am a descendant of Solomon."

"By the power of the ring engraved with the name of God,"

"I command you."

"Obey now, or I will eternally torment you."

"I permit you to retire from my sight!"

Please, Miki.

Run away.

No!

I summoned these demons,

so I can send them back to Hell!

Page 046
Right.

There's no way Miki would ever leave me behind.

Miki has always

protected me, because I'm weak.

But...

But that's useless.

Miki.

You are a true witch.

But,

But isn't that ring just some trash your folks picked up on their honeymoon?

If these are really demons...

There's no way they'll listen to you.

So...

So you have to...

While they...

While they eat me...

Eat me...

Eat...

I don't want to die!

Page 47
Descendant of Solomon, Makimura Miki!

I am a witch!

Don't mess with me!!!

Page 48
I can hear her behind me.

Miki's voice, one last--

Page 49
My conscious mind

melted into...

a deep darkness.

Amon.

Ahh...

Amon.

Amon.

Amon.

Page 50
If there's one thing I could do

I'd want to protect

someone important to me.

... Please,

leave that one,

faint thought...

... Ah...

Aki...

ra...?

It's Amon.

Amon!?

Amon's been resurrected.

Amon the Hero.

Why is he here!?

Page 51
The resurrected demon.

Been a while

since I've had flesh...

Page 52
Akira became

a demon!?

A-...

Amon...!

Page 54
Gyahhh!

What's going on!?

Did I call forth something else!?

Is it bad?

Is it good?

Akira?

Or...

I...

I don't understand a thing, but...

Page 55
It doesn't matter!

Get them!

You don't have to tell me.

The demon's howl reverberates!!

I'm going to rage!!!!
