Owari no seraph

The Demon Moon Squad, also known as the Demon Moon Company, is the main elite troop of the Japanese Imperial Demon Army in the Owari no Seraph universe. They specialize in hunting vampires using weapons with sealed demons (Cursed Equipment). Members include: Shinoa Hīragi: Sergeant and squad leader, belonging to the prestigious and powerful Hīragi family. Makoto Narumi: Sergeant and leader of an independent squad, focusing on tactical group work. Guren Ichinose: Lieutenant Colonel and main commander of the entire Demon Moon Company. Aiko Aihara: Sergeant who also leads squads on high-risk missions. Operation and Armament: Members generally operate in groups of five or more, as fighting an armed vampire alone is fatal. They utilize Cursed Equipment, weapons containing demons that grant superhuman strength in exchange for a pact and the risk of consuming the user's sanity.

Vampire weapons (known in the original lore as First-Class Weapons) are elegant combat tools, usually swords, designed to draw the user's own blood. Their main function is based on the following cycle: Blood Consumption: To activate their powers, the vampire commands the weapon to drink their blood. Activation: Thorns or thorny vines emerge from the weapon's hilt or holes and pierce the vampire's hand or knuckles. Power Increase: The vampire's blood fuels the weapon. This generates a great increase in the blade's destructive power and enhances the physical abilities of the vampire wielding it.

In Owari no Seraph (Seraph of the End), demonic weapons, known as Cursed Gear, function through a deadly pact with demons sealed within sacred weapons. They are humanity's primary means of fighting vampires. The functioning and rules of these weapons are based on three fundamental principles: Contract Formation: To use the weapon, the human must summon the demon and offer their own body/mind as temptation. If the human's willpower is weak, they are possessed by the demon, go insane, and lose control. If they win the mental struggle, they seal a pact and gain access to powers that surpass human capabilities by up to seven times. Feeding: Demons feed on the hatred, desires, and blood of their wielders. In exchange for vital energy, they lend their demonic powers, which manifest as curses and special abilities. Exclusive Use: A Cursed Gear is personal. The weapon cannot be used by another person after the contract has been signed, as the demon will reject the new user.
