History YMMV / Demonbane

* MemeticBadass: Demonbane is the end-all for powerlevel arguments. [[Franchise/TheFlash Flash?]] There's a universe where Demonbane's faster. [[LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex Accelerator?]] There's a universe where Demonbane reflects the reflections of vectors. There's a Demonbane [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann the size of two universes]], a Demonbane that [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure knows how the fuck King Crimson works]], maybe even one that can [[{{Film/Clerks}} defeat the Grimace]].

** Some people will also claim that Demonbane kills Cthulhu or some of the Outer Gods. Actually, Cthulhu is ''never'' defeated by Demonbane in the story (Cthulhu dies due to the actions of entirely different characters), and the Outer Gods barely make any appearances, and the only one Demonbane directly battles is [[spoiler:Nyarlathotep]]... and it is implied that even it cannot kill that one permanently.

* HilariousInHindsight: Haganeya admitted on his Twitter that his first use of that name was naming his Grungust when playing ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars4'' as a kid. It made its first appearance in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsUX''

* CommonKnowledge: Ask most mecha fans about God-Mode Demonbane and they will tell you that it grows so gigantic it pops universes by brushing against them and can summon infinite copies of itself. This is actually not quite accurate: those are two different versions of Demonbane that often get blended together by people who have only heard of the series. ''War God'' Demonbane from the prequel novels does out-grow the universe it starts out it and moves through multiple other universes as it battles Liber Legis, but it doesn't summon copies of itself. ''Elder God'' Demonbane from the sequel game does summon infinite copies of itself but remains at the same size as regular Demonbane (though it is heavily implied that it ''could'' alter its size if it really wanted to).

** Nya, [[spoiler: AKA Nyarlathotep]] is the true BigBad of the whole setting, having setup all the events, allowing Anticross to cause so much pain and suffering, as well as their experiments and the bloodshed that resulted. Her cruelty is such that she attempts to create an EldritchLocation where a hero who opposed her is forced to relive his life over and over, coming close to seeing his true love again, but resetting before he could get to her. Nya's ultimate goal is to release Azathoth and the other outer gods to consume everything, relishing in nothing more than humanity's suffering.

** Vespasianus is the MadScientist of Anticross who masterminded the C Project, where orphans were taken and raised for his experiments, so he could transform them into superpowered servants for the Black Lodge. One of them tried to escape, which resulted in Vespasianus subduing him and turning him forcibly into the Black Angel Sandalphon. In present, Vespasianus presides over experiments with the Deep Ones where he has them 'breed' with human women and later [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness sacrifices the lot of them]] before achieving the summoning of the God Dagon, which he knows will wreak havoc. Vespasianius later helps fellow Anticross member Augustus [TheStarscream participate in the overthrow of their master Therion]] with the other 4 so he and Augustus can bind Cthulhu itself to their will. He has Cthulhu violate their captive Nero and later tries to usurp Augustus as well, driven by nothing but a drive to satisfy his intellectual curiosity.

* CrazyAwesome - Doctor West, in spades.

* MagnificentBastard - Nya, with a healthy dose of EvilIsSexy. [[spoiler: Or, more properly, EldritchAbomination Is Sexy. Seriously, Nyaralathotep looks HOT as a woman, even if she is the one who manipulated the whole damned plot.]]

* {{Moe}} - In and around the series: just look at Al whenever Kurou transforms into a Magius.

** Tiberius is a sickening, perverted, undead Necromancer who finds being a rapist, pedophile SerialKiller the most fun he could possibly have. Tiberius is despised even by [[EvenEvilHasStandards most of his compatriots in the evil organization Anticross]] for his activities, Tiberius attempts to kill, rape, or steal the soul of anyone he comes across, no matter their age or gender.
** Vespasianus is a MadScientist of Anticross who goes past his compatriots in the lines he'll cross. Vespasianus kept a boy named Ryuuga hostage and experimented on him to turn him into the black angel Sandalphon, manipulating Ryuuga and his beloved sister Leica into fighting one another. Vespasianus made sure Ryuuga would have a new, deep hatred for Leica. Consumed by his experiments, Vespasianus cares nothing for morality and also assisted the Deep Ones in attempting to revive their destructive God Dagon to satisfy his curiosity.

* CompleteMonster - Quite a few.
** Tiberius is the most glaring example. Necromancer, SerialKiller, [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil rapist]], pedophile, [[YourSoulIsMine soul stealer]], you name it, he's done it.
** Vespasianus is more restrained than AxCrazy Tiberius, but he's not better by any means. [[spoiler:Especially when you find out what he did to Ryuuga.]]
** [[spoiler:Nya]] is the rare example of being this and a MagnificentBastard at the same time. [[spoiler:Considering she's actually Nyarlathotep, this makes perfect sense.]]

* CreepySexy - Over half the women in the game are HotterAndSexier versions of beings from the CthulhuMythos, so this is a given.
