Solomon
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Okay Asian companies, keep the Solomons coming. I actually would love to see the chaos of a cross over with these three men. It would be so chaotic with OM! Solomon being the cause of death for his 72 demons with his cooking, WHB! Solomon’s demons exhibiting a lot of abandonment issues, and MO! Solomon being able to do what OM! Solomon seems to struggle with.
Okay, to be fair to WHB! Solomon, he could also have a pact with Lucifer.
And I highly doubt there is enough fan artists/writers who are active in all three fandoms who would also engage with shenanigans with me.
Honestly, can we also point out that MO! Michael and WHB! Michael are downright terrifying?

God’s law and temper? Damn right. They are pure rage personified. Satan, sit back and take lessons.
Thank god in WHB I can bully him.

Is anyone else a fan of Makai Ouji: Devils and Realist? Their take on Gilgamesh is most interesting. In this manga/anime series, he reigns as the 94th pillar of Solomon as a ruler of the underworld and a duke of hell (DEMON GILGAMESH?!)
Here's his profile, its not 100% accurate but its a cool spin:

One of the key differences in Lucifer ( and what contributed to his pride ) was the concept of free will. Lucifer gained a strong sense of free-will that angels AREN’T supposed to have. Everything is supposed to be only for God, for Heaven, for orders, etc. They have some free will in that angels have likes and dislikes and things of that nature, but it tends to be a far more collective mindset so to speak. It’s for GOD’S will , for HEAVEN’S will. For Lucifer , it’s a very INDEPENDENT mindset. It’s what HE chooses and things, whether it agrees or disagrees with others and their ideas.
One of the many things that contributes to how Lucifer is different from the other angels in that he was often kept in the presence of God in the throne room. He was exposed to secrets and concepts and knowledge even Michael and other seraphs weren’t. Several different texts cite as Lucifer being surrounded by beautiful things that any mortal would desire, but he was almost exclusively kept to the throne room except for certain occasions such a dealing with problems or dances, and I personally include him in high ranking angel council meetings. As such, along with the constant exposure to God , the secrets and creations, the fact he was CREATED to be both wisest and most beautiful , Lucifer gained a sense of his own free-will beyond what God even knew of. And that free-will brought with it pride.
HE broke free. HE is his own being. He’s better than the others because he has his free-will ( and admittedly being more beautiful and created to be the best ). And that free will means he can change and choose to do what he wants , he can question things , have his own opinions. Independence. Independence that was never accounted for, never planned for.
And this is without even factoring in he’s the White Rider of the Apocolypse. Which , as Makai Ouji says , both serve God as his personal knights , but ALSO serve as a balance in that God cannot interfere with the Horseman (c. 91). It is why he couldn’t stop Lucifer from falling or act out, why Lucifer couldn’t be struck down when anyone else should be. It gave Lucifer divinity that could not be striped away or removed from him. Lucifer knew that and used it to his advantage to try to bring down Heaven, both in the rebellion as well as later when attempting to use Solomon’s soul to break his chains to God as a Horseman and as destroy God’s kingdom. He is destroying the current hierarchy , which he explicitly says when “ To put my role into words , it is to rid this world of God’s legacy. The world where God stands at the top will end , it will be reborn as a new kingdom with a new hierarchy. “ He sees his own plans for the Horseman, not just power balance.
Even fallen , he’s still chained in that he is a Horseman , and unlike the other 3 horsemen , he isn’t mortal. He is stuck with this burden as he exists unless he can escape. But his free will allows the manipulation of events by his hand like a game of chess. His free-will let him do these things , his greatest ‘ flaw ‘ was the free will , because the free-will led to his excessive pride , his own plans , his own thoughts and opinions.

Ooh the part where Dazai said "Yes, people are sinful and foolish. But isn't that what makes them great?" reminded me of this moment from the Makai Ouji manga

I love this brilliant manga parallel and the message they're both trying to explain

Story time about the time I accidentally evoked a demon while making anime fan art even though no one asked for it because it’s also a PSA.
(And it’s kinda funny lmao)
So I was around 14 and I was obsessed with anime. There was this one anime I discovered in a sort of a “weird” way. I blindly used to dabble in witchcraft every now and then around that time so I knew some basic scrying.
I was scrying one time and I got an oddly specific “message” letter by letter. It spelt the name “Makai” and I stopped before I could finish because I was busy. So flash forward, I looked up the name and it turned out to be an anime— Makai Ouji (it’s a brilliant masterpiece work of art anime, go watch it). I didn’t bother watching it until a while later.
It was such a fantastic anime and it dealt with demons and hell and basically Solomonic magick. When I watched it, I had no clue that the characters used in the anime were also the names of real demons so I’d blindly use them everywhere. “Ughhh Astar*th is my absolute favorite character” kinda thing lol.
So I was really into drawing at the time and I started making fan art for the anime. My dumb ass looked up the names of one of the main characters and was confused when it found sigils and stuff. That’s when I just shrugged it off and started drawing those sigils as part of my fan art (I HAD NO CLUE LMAO).
I drew the sigil of D*nteli*n after drawing his apparent figure as was shown in the anime and I kid you not, HE CAME. THE DEMON ACTUALLY FUCKING CAME.
And I know you’re all like “well a demon won’t come just if you draw their sigil or speak their name lmao” but I’m not shitting y’all. I’m not making this up for notes either, that demon WAS THERE.
I was a SUPER practical person at the time, and didn’t actually believe much in magic. I used to think all the scrying I was doing was just my imagination and whatnot but every little bit of that thought process went away when the spirit actually was in my room.
Okay so I didn’t “see” the spirit, but I knew he was there because I could feel it. I felt the whole room “looking” at me and even though it was summer, I felt chills running down my spine. I felt so much pressure and only one thought ran through my head, and the thought wasn’t even mine— the demon whose sigil I just drew was there.
So many crazy things had happened to me when I was younger because some people said that my house was haunted. I never believed any of them, I didn’t care for ghosts and spirits much. Like, literally, I saw some weird shit in that house but I would always rule it off as “oh it’s just gravity” but when I accidentally evoked that demon, I knew that spirits existed.
My mind was a CHAOS for some reason and I couldn’t even breathe so I just kept repeating “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to.” in my head and slowly, the spirit/daemon went away. I immediately closed the notebook I was drawing in.
Know that I hadn’t researched a lot about goetic demons and I’d drawn some of their sigils as a part of fan art before too but idk why at that time, the specific demon came.
So uh I guess that’s my story and PSA. A) watch Makai Ouji, it’s a FANTASTIC anime and amongst my favourites and B) DON’T DRAW SIGILS RANDOMLY lmao.
Like, at least do a protection prayer or something. And I just wanna thank D*nteli*n for not getting angry at me and forgiving my basic 14 year old self 🙏 ur a real one, chief. Now I don’t even utter the spirits’ names these days.
This was years ago and I know most of you may find it dumb but lol just my experience :)

Hello. I just discovered your blog, and I wanted to ask you something regarding Devils and Realist. Mind you, I have never read the manga nor watched the anime. Is Dantelion a teenager or an adult? I'm asking because I've seen people ship him with William, who's 17, and from what I can gather, William seems to be a reincarnation of Dantelion's past master. I just hope that this isn't a Seb*ciel situation is all I'm saying.
Hi anon, welcome to hell, aka my blog.
I'm going to be honest with you there, it's questionable at best. I cannot give you a definitive answer on "is this ship morally acceptable?", but I want you to be able to figure that out for yourself, so I'm going to give you all of the facts as I know them. With minimal spoilers.
(However I can very easily say that this is not a Seb*ciel situation. We're not talking about p*dobait written by someone who depicts children in gross and undefendable ways at every single occasion. We're also not talking about content that can and has been used to groom children. So if your concern is about real life influences and consequences, don't worry- this is inconsequential compared to the disgusting sins of Kuro.)
So, what do we know about Dantalion/William?
Starting with the "this is weird!!" parts:
William is 17 at the beginning of the manga, and Dantalion thinks he's Solomon immediately. At that point it has already been implied (and guessed by William himself) that D and S were lovers. We never see Dantalion in his human (don't quote me on that the lore is messy) youth, and though his human form is supposedly of an appropriate age for the setting (17-18) it's barely different from his true form (yeah, the millennia-old one, which does canonically look youthful, but also if he's as scary as canon says he is I'm going to assume it's youthful as in under 30). Demons sort of canonically care more about age than physical appearance (I'm making this assumption based on Lamia. Dantalion seems to be the only one who minds.) which... complicates things. William is canonically a completely separate person (and soul) from Solomon, so yes that's a 17-18 year old, 100%.
Now the "I mean... I guess it works?" parts:
William turns 18 in the manga, and the most popular (and heavily supported by canon, with things like "Your soul should know") interpretation is that Dantalion only really likes William near the very end of the manga. You could even argue the only somewhat romantic thing between them happens in the very last chapter (but that's only if you don't count the countless moments when Dantalion misses Solomon so much William just has to witness his intense yearning). None of the romance is confirmed, the only person who's canonically attracted to Dantalion is Gilles (I refuse to add Lamia. It's depicted both too childishly and too politically to matter.) but even that is arguably not true and that's... a whole other issue I'm not going to get into right now. Makai Ouji is not a romance, the main plot is political intrigue with lots of occult BS.
And finally the "this could go either way but it needs to be considered and interpreted because it's relevant" parts:
This manga (and anime) is very queerphobic (this is not up for debate. dare question my words and I will get angry.) in many (unintentional, I think) ways and its "unapologetic" depictions of "in your face" queerness are bad (Gilles. he's so bad he makes Grelle look like good trans rep. and I love him but this is terrible.), but also it does not shy away from representing unhealthy relationships that could very much seem queer (Michael and Uriel are just one example among many). But it has always depicted Dantalion and William as healthy. (Which gave me whiplash reading the manga because Dantalion and Solomon were mutually destructive. The contrast is baffling.) All of the canon romances are m/f (Gilles/Dantalion is one-sided and only seen a few times. and again, could not be an actual thing). Lots of romantic tropes and typical subplots apply to Dantalion/William.
And my very simplified opinion (for your own peace of mind, or need to unfollow/block me):
ngl I'm just here to see Dantalion yearn for Solomon, some dead guy who never treated him right. Dantalion/William? whatever I don't fucking care I don't ship it. if you ask me (sorry if you don't get that reference), shipping them is like shipping inukag, but I was an inukyo bitch. (like sure, I could like the alive, currently canon version... but why the fuck would I? also similar age gap) I think the romantic moments are peak romance because the angst is spicy as hell. and Dantalion says the cutest shit (again, "Your soul should know" fucking haunts me, this dude wants Solomon to be there so fucking bad it's lovely and sad). but as I've said, it's technically not canon? like, even the gayest interpretation of Makai Ouji is that these hoes still don't date. honestly if Dantalion/William really bothers you it's still readable, just skip the very last page of the manga and you'll be fine? even the end isn't that bad. if you want to avoid questionable/triggering things in Makai Ouji this ship isn't what you should be worried about. worry about the homophobia, transphobia, (we're talking Kuro levels and above) issues of consent (but it is depicted as bad. there's just a lot going on.), weird amount of whiteness????, and other things. but again, it's readable, the anime is worse than the manga tho (it's really not that bad still).
