He enlisted in the Japanese Imperial Demon Army for vampire extermination, the Moon Demon Company in which he learns about teamwork.

Upon finding that Mikaela is still alive as a vampire, he is overjoyed and immediately swore to save Mikaela.[vol. 4] After deciding that his new reason to live is to reclaim Mikaela from the vampires, he started to be less vengeful and places more value in friends and companionship.

Voiced by: Hibiku Yamamura[1] (Japanese); Colleen Clinkenbeard (English) (anime)
A demon that resides inside the Cursed Gear of Black Demon Series formerly owned by Mahiru Hiragi, and currently Yuichiro Hyakuya.[vol. 2] Just like the other demons, Asuramaru disfavors love and likes desire even though he wants to be loved by Yuichiro. He is often surprised by the gentle side of Yuichiro and gives power whenever he asks for it. He becomes friends with Yuichiro later on the series.[1] Asuramau's true identity is Ashera Tepes, Krul's older brother who turned into a demon after departing from her with the First Progenitor of vampires.[LN vol. 5][ch. 49, 69] He is unable to remember his identity, only recalling fragments and that he has a little sister, but remembers her during the Shibuya Arc.

Voiced by: Tomoyo Kurosawa[1] (Japanese); Bryn Apprill (English) (anime)

A demon rises inside the Cursed Gear of Black Demon Series owned by Yoichi Saotome.[vol. 2] Eventually, Gekkōin and Yoichi become friends. The two sometimes discuss about their favorite colors in Yoichi's dreams. He plans on helping Yoichi defeat Lacus and enjoys his darker side.[ch. 51]
Shikama Doji (四鎌童子, Shikama Dōji, lit. Four-Scythe Child)
A manifestation-type demon that resides inside the Cursed Gear owned by Shinoa Hiragi.
