GOOD DEVILS GONE BAD

my personal hc is that the driving motive behind Makima’s mistreatment of Angel (and to a larger extent Denji) was jealousy

Makima is unable to form her own connections as the control devil, which is why she fabricates other’s affections towards her. At the end of the day Makima is lonely and craves emotional intimacy that she is unable to achieve.

Angel on the other hand, was immediately accepted and adored the moment he was put onto earth by the villagers. Emotional intimacy with humans was something that was natural to him even with his power, and only when Makima took him to public safety did he change.

I think that when Makima discovered that a devil that was both below her and had an ability that was lethal to humans was actively loved by them, she acted out of jealousy which led to Angel killing the villagers. The fact that Angel was able to have the one thing she couldn’t despite her believing her status as a devil was one that was superior to him was likely unfathomable to her.

Later on when Angel became close with Aki, Makima had doubled down on the spell she had over Aki not just because it would get her close to her main goal, but because it was a way for her to show Angel that she was above him in some weird way. Controlling him showed that she could win a human’s affection over Angel—even if completely fabricated. Given that Angel was also one of the chainsaw devil’s worshippers, the control devil might’ve also resented the angel devil for having some of the appreciation that she craved from the chainsaw devil (I think that also goes hand in hand with Denji because she probably wasn’t too happy about Pochita liking Denji more over her either 😭)

Basically I think Makima treated Angel like shit for so long because she resented his ability to form emotional, intimate connections with others. She might’ve also wanted his power given how she kept spamming 1000 years during her fight with Denji.

he never stops her.

How do we feel about Jim’s dialogue being ‘green with envy’ ?

They way MW plays with colour and character is one of my fav things bout the storytelling..

Also idk why i keep rendering this way, it’s such a pain in the butt. Sketches are much better for my lil monkey brain but then i keep obsessing over these kinds of things like… brain, make it make sense.

Out of touch

I genuinely cried a little at this panel what the fuck fujimoto
