- The existence of the Sacred Tome, a reality warping book that can create anything as long as you pay enough Mana, seems to suggest this.
...wait a minute.
- Crazy talk.
- Makai Kingdom was the last really big flare-up, but that situation was taken care of.
- Of the old guard, only Baal remains.
- The Disgaea Netherworld, aka Makai, was formerly known as the Abyss. It barely resembles its former self now.
- In the anime, at least, Flonne and Vulcanus are the only angels that enter the Netherworld and survive long enough to leave. And Vulcanus was a villain, of the Well-Intentioned Extremist variety.
- And that's besides the "reverse-Noble Demon" aspects — cheating Laharl out of a reward for saving her life, breaking Robot Buddy Thursday after he's about to reveal her foul language ...
- Fallen Angel Flonne is little more than a Palette Swap of her angel form.
- Not entirely accurate, she has demon wings and tail in 2nd form, and her blouse is open, shwoing her in a red...one piece bathing suit? Also, she probably chucked the pendant after becoming Fallen, as she only needed it to survive in the demon world, and now that she's fallen, she doesn't need it (remember, Clerics are described as 'possibly' fallen angels).
- Wouldn't her own pendant burn her? Also, would she not respawn as a Prinny upon death? (since Laharl appears to be able to, unless that's because he's half-human, which would contradict a theory below)
- She could easily have been lying about what sets off the pendant. As for the Prinny thing, it's obvious that she's too cute to become a Prinny.
- Except that it actually reacted to Laharl and Vulcanus's bad thoughts, and a Prinny Flonne would be amusing.
- Do we know that? That's what everyone thinks sets it off, but maybe it's the simple fact that someone other than Flonne is holding it. Remember, nobody else in the series even tries holding the pendant, and when Laharl does handle it without being burned, Flonne's a flower. A Prinny Flonne, though... yeah, it would be amusing, I'll give you that.
- Mid-Boss and Larharl (end of game) held it without being burnt.
- OK, so someone else holding it isn't the trigger, but maybe it only hurts the holder when Flonne wants it to. When Laharl first holds the pendant, Flonne doesn't like him much, so she could easily have wanted to hurt him then. When Midboss holds it, he's just helped Flonne, so she'd probably not want anything bad to happen to him then. By the time Vulcanus holds it, Flonne's already at least suspicious of him. And when Laharl holds it without being hurt, as mentioned before, Flonne's a flower, and therefore incapable of making the decision. (Or, if she is capable, she actually likes him by then.) Also note that Flonne is close to the pendant every time someone else is holding it.
- If she was able to activate it, it would have burned Mid-Boss when she realized that he had it.
- She wasn't suspicious of him. She didn't even know he was there. And before you mention the feather they found, she just mentioned that it was that of a high ranking angel and nothing more.
- Why would she activate it then? Who said she's supposed to be Chaotic Evil?
- It didn't burn Mid-Boss because his motives are actually good, Batmaning Laharl into becoming a Noble Demon. Likewise by the time Laharl is a Noble Demon, he doesn't get burned, but when he was still evil, he did. The pendant appears to work on motives, not actions.
- Yeah, if that's how it actually works. But if Flonne is evil, that's not how it works, ergo, that point is moot. Of course, it could just be that the pendant does indeed burn anyone who is evil, but Flonne's immune to it. Or maybe it only burns evil males, and Flonne just omitted that part? After all, everyone the pendant did burn was male.
- I don't see how Flonne becoming evil would change how the pendant works. Besides, the pendant was given to her by Lamington originally.
- The guess is not that Flonne became evil, it's that she was already evil. That being the case, we have every reason to believe that the pendant doesn't work the way that Evil!Flonne says it does, hence the extra WMG over why it would've done what was observed.
- Except it was the Seraph who gave her the pendant, wasn't it? She didn't create it, she was told how it only worked for those with kind-hearts.
- Did we actually see him give her the pendant? If not, easy explanation — again, she lied.
- Flonne? The Love Freak Trope Namer? Evil? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHOHEHAHAHA *gasp* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAhahahahehe* pant* hoooooo... You're kidding me, right?.
- Love Makes You Evil, you know.
- See the OVA's when Etna and Flonne have their personalities reverse. Etna more or less tortures the Prinnies by having them do good deeds non-stop, practically killing them from overexhaustion.
- As opposed to sending them on suicide missions?
- You guys keep pointing to the anime, but the anime is an Alternate Continuity. Flonne in the games never did anything to remotely deserve being called evil. Sure, she beat up a few humans and angels, but it's not like she didn't have good reason for doing that. And Flonne pretty much acts as the Morality Pet to both Laharl AND Etna. In the games, what reason does she have to be called "Evil?"
- True, the anime is an Alternate Continuity, but they are both telling more or less the same story. In any case, looking just at the games, specifically the first one... how about the fact that she attempted to assassinate the rightful ruler of the Netherworld? Sure, she later says that she believes assassination is wrong, and seems to regret it, but that's after the attempt failed. She could easily have been covering for herself.
- And I quote Flonne herself: "But still, is it alright for me to be doing this? The angels all say that demons are evil, but are they really? It doesn't seem fair to judge somebody based on rumors alone. Even if it's the Seraph's orders, I don't feel right assassinating somebody I don't know. Does that mean it's alright to assasinate someone I DO know? That seems wrong too. Can't kill strangers... Hmm, can't kill acquaintances either... Which means... Oh..."
- In case you're wondering why I don't think she's acting, let us remember that she had a 5 minute conversation with herself, just to endear herself to Laharl. If she knew enough to know that were possible, she therefore most likely knows that Laharl was asleep for MONTHS, seemingly uninvoked, as that was very recent history and a big part of what Laharl is now. There's also the fact that no one evil enough to outgambit THE ENTIRE AUDIENCE would be patient enough to hold such a conversation. They most likely hate most people, so the idea that they would hold such a tedious conversation with themselves just to gain the support or scorn of a bratty demon is practically unheard of. There's also the fact that she would most likely know it's stupid to outright call yourself an assassin, and would most likely assume that a demon would kill her on sight. Flonne puts up too convincing of an act, anyhow, to be a faker. Anyone with a degree in Evil in Disgaea wouldn't be that willing to act that preachy. And besides, in the concept stages of Disgaea, the Seraph was originally going to be God. I realize the idea was controversial in the first place, but you really mean to tell me he'd be fooled?
- True, the anime is an Alternate Continuity, but they are both telling more or less the same story. In any case, looking just at the games, specifically the first one... how about the fact that she attempted to assassinate the rightful ruler of the Netherworld? Sure, she later says that she believes assassination is wrong, and seems to regret it, but that's after the attempt failed. She could easily have been covering for herself.
- If you meet the requirements, Larharl is also able to create Angels(!) and Humans (EDF).
- Well, it's All There in the Manual, but apparently, there's been a angelic influence in the Netherworld for some time now. The Succubi monsters and Healers are all descended from fallen angels. Presumably, the angels you can get either are fallen, or come with their own protective amulets.
- The angels you get to create are all full-fledged angels, no need for the amulets.
- In The Guided Fate Paradox, the angels serving God are former demons.
- It's true that the half-human issue doesn't seem so big in-game, but there are certain sects in the Netherworld (Laharl's relatives, in fact) that are very discriminatory towards humans and consider Laharl's blood to be 'soiled'.
- I don't think the monster/humanoid thing is well-thought-out. It's interesting that Prier actually BECAME a demon by killing lots of demons.
- It's a Japanese mythology thing. One who kills 1000 Yokai becomes a Yokai.
- It should also be noted that none of the demons in the Dark World stages of La Pucelle were humanoid (Dark Warriors might be).
- Possible, or he could just be using a variant of the Doppleganger spell of the Clone Geo Panel.
- Let's look at the facts:
- Both games run on Rule of Cool to an extent
- The netherworld and the warp are both in space.
- Humanity is in some sort of spaceborne phase.
- Succubi and Nekomata are fetish material...
- And with a level cap of 9999, there is always More Dakka.
- This world mean that the chaos gods are simply demons who are level 9999 (or higher?).
- We definitely know that there is a tranformation past "Demon Overlord." Baal has accomplished this; and Zenon barely escaped that fate. (It's more than just a title change to Tyrant or Master.)
- Or conversely, Disgaea IS Warhammer 40k, filtered through the perspective of Chaos Demons. What reason would they have to see their world as anything but delightful and adorable?
- Because of this, maybe.
- Overlord Zenon is a good example of what happens when it gets past the breaking point. She was smart enough to figure a way out.
- Half demon Lilica's idea of "evil" is skipping school and rollerblading where she shouldn't, sound familiar?
- Laharl is also half-demon; does this mean that Lilica is Laharl's sister?
- Think about this. Lilica's mother is a human and Lilica's father is a demon. Laharl's mother is a human witch and Laharl's father is King Kricheveskoy the demon overlord.
- Mostly if you realize that the "Netherworld" of Disgaea is called "Makai" in Japan...and there's more than one!
- Meaning either demons don't bother with it for some reason, or it was abandoned + sealed off after Reimu, Marisa, Mima, and Yuuka were through with it (and Sanae, depending on which of the UFO endings is canon).
- Disgaea Tieflings are different than Dungeons & Dragons Tieflings.
- Not any specific type, mind you, but she has some traits common of The Fair Folk: Beautiful, otherworldly apperance... and amoral good-natured bloodlust.
And for that matter, with the above theory that Baal is Legion... have you ever seen Mid-Boss and Baal in the same scene? It has been mentioned multiple times that they have fought at least once, but the fight itself is never shown, only described.
- It shouldn't matter whether they're both downloadable or not. I mean, you can download both Kurtises...obviously causality is trivial in the Netherworlds.
- At least where travel from one to another is concerned.
- Mid-Boss is just really really fast. He trains with 100-ton boxers, you know. And the Kurtis that isn't a prinny is most likely one of the cyborg clones that General Carter made.
- It does say he is a demon: his parents are refugee demons from a more violent netherworld.
- Yes, but could have just as easily have been their adoptive son. Yes, it's a stretch, but we don't call it Wild Mass Guessing for nothing.
- Except Rozalin is most certainly a demon, but is only 17, the same age as Adell. Unless you argue somehow that the demonic God of All Overlords reincarnated into an elf that, for some reason, was adopted into the Snow Clan... well, I don't really see how your theory works.
- I think it was said somewhere that a demon's body adapt to the netherworld they're living in, demons in Veldime (an artificial netherworld) age as if they were humans.
- It does say he is a demon: his parents are refugee demons from a more violent netherworld.
- Specifically, she is part Succubus. She has all of the traits: Pinkish hair and eyes, the similarly shaped tail and wings. And oddly enough, her habit of "Shipping" things and delinquency could also come from part of her Succubi parentage. After all, Succubi like being bad, Raspberyl just expresses that urge differently.
- Yes, Raspberyl does occasionally ship Kyoko and Asuka together as a couple. Her Dark Hero Days encounter shows she loves forbidden love. Whether or not the two are a couple; they're used it her doing that.
- Tell me where in the Great Book O' Tropes that a demon isn't allowed to also be a "Demon Hunter"? Anyone genre-savvy enough would remember that some of the best X-Hunters (where X is any superhuman being) are either Half-Human Hybrids or full members of X. Blade would be a good example of this. We even have a trope about it (Sorta).
- I always thought his title was an intentional joke. Turns out he's not just a Demon Hunter (a hunter of demons), he's also a Demon Hunter (a hunter who is also a demon).
- Aurum: I wasn't allowed to die. Stronger, stronger, stronger. Demanding to be the strongest. Even if I died, I was forced to come back to life. 'Aww, how could you die?' Did I not even have the right to die? I just wanted to live as a hero, and die as a hero. That's why I searched for the Overlord everyone acknowledged as the strongest, and sought for a place to die.
- I'm thinking they meant the main character of an anime where the hero suffers a Disney Death several times a season, and is sick of being revived by The Power of Love.
- Nippon Ichi has elaborated in Zettai Hero Project.
- I'm thinking they meant the main character of an anime where the hero suffers a Disney Death several times a season, and is sick of being revived by The Power of Love.
- This is actually supported in universe. Consider that Etna had been serving Krichevskoy since before Laharl was born. They're only roughly a hundred years apart. Etna Mode's story about him taking her in clearly proves she wasn't an infant at that point. So either they've got some looooong aging plateaus, or they don't age at a steady rate. That also explains Mid-Boss, to an extent.
- They're probably "Entei" demon-class like the ones you fight in the first game before you can get to Baal. Yeah, they took the form of dogs in the movie; but that's because Ivo Shandor made those statues that way.
- Confirmed by Word of God... maybe...so... not confirmed?
- Prier made him angrier by "purifying him" and then selling him to slavery. Baal very, very quickly made it up the ranks.
- Revisiting this theory after the new endings of La Pucelle Ragnarok are declared. "Maiden of Darkness" Prier may have led Seraph Lamington to step up his plan regarding demons and angels; since she proved that it was possible to be good and a demon.
Why would Etna do this? Baal killed King Krichevskoy; she'd hate Baal with a passion. Because she has a plan. NOTHING kills Baal. He always comes back; his soul possessing some other body. But...what if, he were redeemed? If he paid the Prinny price of the Netherworld, and his soul reformatted by the Red Moon; he would be absorbed back into the cycle of life; his powers gone. And results mean far more to Etna.
- Yes, Baal is a bonus boss if one replays the stage where you fight Prinny Laharl. He has more than one body going around; and really that was surprisingly weak for Baal.
- Keep in mind, Prinny: Can I Really Be the Hero? was an Alternate Universe; so everyone else is still fighting Baal.
- The fact that the Prinny in charge always comments on how he used to be a "Dirty Cop" in life cements it. All 1000 were Dirty Cops? I think not. It's Fake Memories Etna placed on him/them.
- Not that this is a bad thing. Not all demons are evil; Veldime just became a hybrid society afterwards. Adell going to the Academy of Evil because things had gotten "boring" is a good sign.
- It was a hybrid world before; as the Snow Clan ninja demons were both native and "true demons."
- Arguably Word of God, if you accept The World of Disgaea 2 as canon; page 47 tells us while the transformed people changed back, it's otherwise unchanged. In fact, once a world is transformed into a netherworld, it's stuck that way. Barring, presumably, a trigger-happy moron destroying it utterly.
- Exposure to the Netherworlds and being Vassals to Laharl had a nativizing effect. Undergoing the Transmigration/Reincarnation process to strengthen bodies would accelerate this effect.
- Travelling too close to Veldime in Disgaea 2 inflicted them with part of the Curse. Gordon was a Monster class there too and Magichangable.
- They aren't the original Captain Gordon and Jennifer. Kurtis's "teaching" the Kurtis Copies how to have a soul radically accelerated the EDF's Robot Defender program; and Gordon's and Jennifer's information was added to the roster. The new improved Neural interface also gave DLC Thursday the ability to Transmigrate.
- Could also be attributed to strength of character.
- And once you give a Prinny a fancy red scarf, it can suddenly pick up and throw things.
- Prinnies can already do that. Infinite Bag Of Holding around their waists, remember? They have so much crap in there that them picking up and carrying other stuff is pretty pointless in the end - anything they may pick up from the field barring enemies they probably already have in those bags... Besides, Prinnies explode when thrown, so they have reasons to not get too close to enemies capable of grabbing them.
- According to the Disgaea 2 Art Book, monster-class characters fight using their own strength and abilities (and if any do use weapons, such as the Orcs, theirs are rather old), the monster-class weapons only used to strengthen their powers. Humanoid-types (most of them, anyway) have to use weapons and their specific skills to make up for their lack of innate abilities (and stealing their weapon leaves them a sitting duck).
- Prinnies can already do that. Infinite Bag Of Holding around their waists, remember? They have so much crap in there that them picking up and carrying other stuff is pretty pointless in the end - anything they may pick up from the field barring enemies they probably already have in those bags... Besides, Prinnies explode when thrown, so they have reasons to not get too close to enemies capable of grabbing them.
- Perhaps the Demons and Angels go to Hell and Heaven when they die? Humans seem to go through a never-ending reincarnation cycle via the Prinnies anyway, so there wouldn't be a point for them to go there.
- Except Laharl is a demon and also became a prinny in one of the endings. I find it far more likely Heaven/Hell are either an alternate Celestia/Netherworld, a particular region inside Celestia/Netherworld, A artifact of human speech passed down to demons, or more of a Buddhist-style state of being. It also may be God is actually a transcendent deity or myth to angels as well as humans, or simply doesn't have a real body, or lives in an alternate Celestia. Also I think there is a reason to think Celestia and The Netherworld exist as parallels to human belief in heaven and hell, but are clearly different in reality.
- Makai Kingdom has Seedle, lord of the Underworld "you know, where the dead people are". So there might be some version of Purgatory.
- It's everything but outright stated that Heaven and Hell are separate from Celestia and the Netherworld. For instance, in the first Disgaea, after Kurtis dies, he reincarnates as a Prinny in Celestia, and says he needs to make up for his mistakes in life before he can go to Heaven to join his family in paradise. Additionally the Rasberyl DLC, when they're going to Celestia, Sapphire asks if they have to die to get there (Then asks for volunteers). Master Big Star assures them that Celestia "isn't what they're thinking of". In Laharl's case, he was half-human as is, so that could explain why he became a prinny. Thus, you could say that Celestia and the Netherworld are both forms of Purgatory that Prinnies must endure until the Red Moon, where they can go to heaven properly. There is no 'endless cycle'. Being a prinny is a chance to make up for your mistakes as a human.
- In Seedle's case, his Netherworld probably acts as your typical Purgatory, without sinners reincarnating as Prinnies. Maybe as Phantoms? It's possible that people don't necessarily have to be Prinnies to atone. See: Disgaea 2, 'Reincarnate to Atone for Sins/into a Prinny'. As for demons and angels, well, at one point in Makai Kingdom it's stated that if an Overlord dies, there's nothing left. Possibly this could mean if they die outside of their Netherworld, or without any mana left both of which was the case with Salome, then a demon is gone for good, but otherwise they may well reincarnate somewhere else or even go to Heaven or Hell depending on what they were like in life.
- This might be what the legendary title of Supreme Overlord is really about.
- Didn't Laharl have a few lines in the original about something above Supreme Overlord?
- This might actually not really be a matter of "he was born to do it", but of revenge; Baal is the one who really killed Krichevskoy, after all. Hello!. My Name Is Overlord Laharl. You Killed My Father. Prepare to Die.
- I have thought that, but Baal has appeared so many times that I'm starting to think Laharl wants to do it for kicks rather than just avenge Krichevskoy. Then again, he is aware that Baal constantly transfers into another body once he's defeated so maybe he's constantly fighting Baal since he knows he can never truly be destroyed.
- Laharl himself makes claims to the effect that it's all about showing the universe - and everything in it - who's boss.
- Yeah, but if that was true, why doesn't he show up in crossover universes? Again, he's not in Cross Edge and Trinity Universe, and he didn't stick around too long in Soul Nomad (And in that particular he case, it was only in the Demon Path).
- Has anyone considered that it may be the other way around? That Baal shows up solely wherever Laharl goes because nobody else is worth his time and he's looking for someone strong to throw down with in a massive fight? After all, Baal can't really die, so he can afford to seek out the strongest being he can find so he'll have a good time, and he sure seems to like causing as much chaos as possible...
- Seems Disgaea 4 has debunked this bit, seeing as how Baal's nowhere to be seen in that game... and considering that in Zettai Hero Project, Valvolga from Makai Kingdom is stated to have been the one to off Baal permanently.
- Not so fast! Baal is returning as DLC! So among all the games Laharl appeared in, the only game that didn't have Baal was Zettai Hero Project.
- They gainax even when nobody is around for them to seduce.
- They always jump up and down in a manner that is characteristic of a hyperactive child.
- Their facial and body expression both in the sprites and in the portraits looks more enthusiastic and wide-eyed rather than sullen and/or seductive.
On these observations, there's the possibility that they are merely a group of Innocent Fanservice Girls. Or more likely, that they are not always so blatant of their sexiness as it seems. Rather, this phenomenon of permanent bounciness is just a simple consequence of excess glucose intake.
- Directly stated in Makai Kingdom.
Alternatively, all beings like this ARE Baal. Using their great powers, they traveled back in time and combined to become Baal. Meaning...Baal's strength is multiplied by a factor of 1000 by the second every second. Zenon was merely another potential "candidate".
- Rather doubtable. There are (at times) shown to be leftover Prinny suits lying around, and the Eyringa are shown to be weak creatures. It's likely Baal just shoves the original soul out and moves himself in while waiting for his original body (or any duplicates thereof) to be restored... though, does his original body restore itself during that time?
- They are now BOTH the Overlord!
- How would that work exactly? Adell's the Brawn while she's the Brain?
- They're co-overlords. Co-verlords!
Or, more likely, he sticks human sized because of the lack of Colossal Overlord-sized Slaystations. Hexbox360s, however, would probably be just oversized enough though.
Not my theory. I do not take credit for it.- Or perhaps related. Siblings? Child and parent?
- Jossed. She has absolutely nothing to do with Vulcanus and "Volcano" is only an alias.
- Made less probable by Disgaea Infinite; she's back to her angel coloration because she's taking classes. Apparently taking classes lets her get her coloring back, but she doesn't get her Angel Trainee title back until she passes the test.
- a picture of him masturbating/
- This is coming from the fact that Flonne (who's about 15 in angel/demon years) says something along the lines of "I didn't know you were into that" and the way Etna (who's about 14 in demon years) is laughing. Also, Laharl grabs himself down there in the reaction image in the psp remake. Laharl is about 13 in demon years and what are most 13 year old boys starting to find out about themselves....
- a picture of him saving puppies and/or kitties.
- Evidence? One of the castle residents mentions something about it not being something that a demon would do. Demons in the Nippon Ichi world generally go by Dark Is Not Evil and Even Evil Has Standards.They basically just do "evil" things like pranks or be mean to each other.
- A third popular theory is that he was cross-dressing, either forced into it or of his own will. Also consider that both of the above points could apply to this.
- ...And now you have me thinking it was a picture of him masturbating while saving kittens... dressed as a girl. Thanks, I needed that.
- There's a difference though. While Etna was Laharl's sidekick from the get-go, Axel was the Mid-Boss character. You could argue, of course, that it's characters who got their own story mode later on that become main characters in later entries, but Etna only got a story mode AFTER Disgaea 2 had come out.
- Most likely jossed for 5, she isn't seen on the big cast concept art.
- Sadly jossed. Because Status Quo Is God, she's back to doing Hostile Show Takeovers and if that wasn't enough, NI did not upgrade her sprite. As if she didn't have enough to complain about.
- The jossed was jossed. Asagi has a DLC HD Sprite. And everyone who buys it is donating money to people in Japan who were harmed by the earthquake.
- Makai Kingdom: Kurosugi tipped off Zetta that he will get his freakin' bad ass kicked by the next main character and gave him the idea that getting rid of the next main character will make him the main character for all eternity. She did not expect him to not only let Asagi live but to delay Makai Wars since she knew that she'd be next line once Asagi dies.
- Disgaea 2: Kurosugi sent the "Fight the hero of another game" bill to the Dark Assembly, knowing that Adell, the battle maniac, will not hold back against the boss and kill Asagi during the battle. In Axel Mode, Asagi attempted to get her game out of Development Hell by shooting the Makai Wars movie. Kurosugi purposely had Axel hired as a stunt double knowing that he'd screw everything up and delay the game even further.
- Soul Nomad & the World Eaters: Kurosugi made Asagi believe that she had gained the power to defeat Zetta by having her fans fire the Yoshitsuna's main cannon at Zetta and blowing a dimensional gate into Haephnes. Asagi's groupies are simply Kurosugi's fans trying to make her so overconfident that she ends up dead by her ego alone.
- Disgaea 3: Kurosugi set up the entire post game by stealing from various characters or making the characters believe they had something stolen from them and spread the rumor that Baal is the legendary Overlord thief just so that she could send Asagi to go up against him, who she was hoping would kill her.
- Disgaea Infinite: Kurosugi found out about Asagi ordering TickTock from Amazombie and confronted the deliveryman, planning on using it so that Makai Wars isn't delayed and she becomes the main characters instead of Asagi. During the scuffle, TickTock fell into a dimensional portal, which made it's way into the Overlord's Castle.
- Zettai Hero Project: Kurosugi gave Asagi the idea to dress up as characters from various anime series and take their place, knowing that if she succeeded, she'd possibly be kill at some point during the run of the series due to her lack of powers of the character she's dressing up as. She never expected the Z.H.P. cast to run into her.
- Very well then. Having looked at the lyrics, I'd say she's more reminiscent of a vampire, what with the whole "sneaking to your bedside by night" and "blood drinking" bits; then again, this is Etna, the queen of Her Codename Was Mary Sue episode previews. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if she came up with those lyrics herself.
- A problem with that: A database entry in Disgaea Infinite establishes that time passes slower in the netherworld, not faster, and that ordinary demons have a life span 100 times that of a normal human as a result. In Disgaea 2, demons native to Veldime, an unrelated human world, age like humans but retain the long lifespan. This means it's a magical/inherent thing not related to orbital rotation.
- The rest of it is quite plausible, however - an NPC in the first game points out that the netherworld is on a planet and demons would be considered aliens to the humans.
- Scratch that. They're back as DLC.
- More specifically, his "Beauty is Sin" evility does empower female allies, so that could put some support towards this.
- Jossed by the fact that, were Etna at all connected to Yoko, she wouldn't be nearly that flat.
- Better hope she doesn't read this or find out where you are
- Since Baal reappears as DLC in Disgaea 4, I think the implication was that Valvolga lied about "killing Baal for good" so he could get the bonus boss spot.
- Saphire is determined to protect herself so that no noble warriors have to die in her name. She consolidates this Conviction into the catch phrase "First to Strike, First To win."
- CAPTAIN GORDON DEFENDER OF EARTH and company.
- The Unlosing Ranger is always powered by some Heroic Conviction. The Suit just let's the Human take it up to eleven. To where they can go one on one with Overlords.
- The Human World from Disgaea 1 has Laharl's Netherworld.
- Hades Is another, and the story involving it takes place further into the future of the original Disgaea.
- The Various Overlords from Makai Kindgom own Netherworlds that form the constellation for 'Our' Human World. The Unlosing Ranger and other such heroes are the reason their presence isn't as felt as it is for the Disgaea Human World.
- The Human World from Disgaea 1 has Laharl's Netherworld.
- Considering that sardines have Omega-3 fatty acids, which actually help detox the body and act as a cleanser, this does hold up for him staving off the A-virus.
However, if a demon were to be born and/or raised in a human world, then they will grow and mature at the rate of a human. Examples: Adell (age 17, pure blood) and Rutile (age 15, half nekomata). This does NOT have an effect on their life span.
- Jossed, It was a superhero Aurum figure.
- The new angel trainee character is Laharl's mother reincarnate!
- Expies of Laharl's aunt and uncle will appear.
- The first one is debunked. The angel trainee is Sicily, Laharl's younger sister. No idea on if the novels will be considered canon to the games.
- Additionally, I think he'll have green or orange hair.
- Jossed for hair color, alignment unkown as of yet.
- Jossed. Disgaea 5 protagonist Killia is another male.
- This could definitely be a possibility since we never see Xenolith nor does he talk when Etna greets him at the gates.
- Alternatively Xenolith could have become an Unprinny like Fuka. This way he would still be able to keep his appearance and his power while still being a Prinny that could serve under Etna. Plus the idea of someone serious like Xenolith having a red Prinny hat is cute.

However, the ending shows that they are clearly distinct people who happen to be in the same body. By the time Zenon was desperate enough to try reincarnation, it was already too late. And speaking of Baal-esque entities...

Characters get stronger the more they fight.
