Michael
Michael is a high-ranking archangel in the Celestial Realm. He has not yet appeared in-game, but has been mentioned by other characters including Luke, who has stated that he "reports to Michael directly."
Appearance[edit source]
Though Michael's appearance is not yet known, according to Satan in Lesson 43-19, Michael's appearance is the complete opposite of Lucifer's. It was also stated in this lesson that Michael "had a certain presence about him that's impossible to put into words" and "was everything humans imagine an angel to be and more". Luke also claimed in Issue 6 of the RAD Newspaper that Michael has good fashion taste, particularly with accessories.
Personality[edit source]
According to Lucifer in the chat Simeon's Complaint, Michael is "too upfront about his desires", causing him to place unreasonable responsibility onto those working under him. Michael's unreasonable demands are also mentioned by Belphegor in Lesson 56-1. Despite the overworking and unreasonable demands, his subordinates seem to respect him greatly and view him as a good person.
Michael has been described by both Raphael and Mammon as weird and socially inept.
Michael can behave rather childishly; in the Devilgram Raphael's Welcome, he is said to have moped dramatically over Raphael and Lucifer not bringing human food back to the Celestial Realm for him after they took a trip to the Human World.
Michael has an immense sweet tooth, and is known to often be eating sweets, to the point that when asked for his opinion on the angel, Beelzebub simply mentions in Lesson 43-19 that he "smelled tasty." He has rather lavish and specific tastes, and is very eager to try Devildom sweets. He has no issue sparing food for others, however, having sent Simeon and Luke a package of Celestial Realm confections while they were in the Devildom in the chat Sweets From The Celestial Realm.
In Lesson 50-10, Michael was said to be interested in astronomy, having taught Luke and Mammon about Human World constellations. This was later alluded to by Lucifer, who explained in Lesson 52-7 that Michael had Raphael create a planetarium so he could view human world stars from the Celestial Realm.
In was shown in his one and currently only chat with Simeon that Michael is calm, yet stern, when he is angry. He prefers to talk rather than use physical discipline, in contrast with Lucifer. The Devilgram A Job From Michael further exemplifies this approach, as in it he suggested that Lucifer use more gentle tactics to correct his brothers' behavior. However, Michael is very much capable of more harsh behavior; Mammon states in Lesson 43-19 that Michael used to punish him in ways that "still give him shivers to this day."
Story[edit source]
Background[edit source]
In Lesson 23-5, Barbatos mentioned that Michael is the current leader of the Celestial Realm's legion of angels as well as the guardian angel of confectioners.
When Lucifer was still an angel, the two appeared to have a friendly sibling rivalry. The two would do things to mildly annoy each other, such as Lucifer making sure to attend the opening of the first planetarium in the Celestial Realm in Lesson 52-7 because he knew Michael had wanted to visit first. They also had a habit of pushing their responsibilities onto each other, such as when Lucifer referred a lost MC to Michael and Michael made Lucifer go to a diplomatic meeting in Devildom in his place, which Lucifer griped about in Lesson 44-15. However, the two have become estranged since the fallout of the Great Celestial War.
Main Story and Events[edit source]
According to Luke in Lesson 5-12, Michael loves sweets of all kinds.
In Lesson 49, Luke commented that he often found Michael in the great hall of the Celestial Palace, where portraits of Lucifer and his brothers used to hang when they were angels. He would simply stare at the empty space, lost in thought. He claims that, although he never says anything, Michael misses the demon brothers dearly and regrets both the Great Celestial War and their resulting departure from the Celestial Realm.
Relationships[edit source]
Main Character[edit source]
MC was meant to meet with Michael at two points in the series, but has not yet done so. According to Luke before the first missed meeting, Michael had been greatly looking forward to meeting MC. Despite never officially meeting, it appears that Michael knows MC on some level. Raphael mentions in his character introduction video that he has heard a lot about MC from Michael.
The two may or may not have met when the Ring of Light was given to MC, and MC communicated with an unknown person.
Lucifer[edit source]
In Lesson 23-3, the brothers revealed that Michael had always admired and loved Lucifer. Michael and Lucifer once had a close brotherly relationship back when Lucifer was an angel. In Lesson 43-19, Satan described the two feeling "like twins." Mammon also stated that the two had similar personalities, despite Satan thinking Lucifer embodied what Michael "wasn't, but wished he could be."
Towards the end of Season 3, it was revealed that Michael had collected very important mementos from Lucifer's time in the Celestial Realm. He was very quick to discover when one of these keepsakes — the Ring of Light — was stolen, implying he still keeps track of these keepsakes closely after all these years.
Mammon[edit source]
In Lesson 27-19, it was revealed by Asmodeus that Michael used to teach Mammon, but didn't know how to deal with him. This led to Lucifer taking over. Before this happened, Michael attempted to teach Mammon about the constellations, though Mammon apparently didn't absorb that information, as mentioned in Lesson 50-10. In the same scene, Mammon referred to Michael as "weird", saying he "could never forget someone as weird as him."
Diavolo[edit source]
The extent of Diavolo and Michael's relations are unknown, but it is implied they have interacted as Michael was directly involved in choosing students for the exchange program. Michael was also indicated to be frustrated with Diavolo for the secrets he kept in Season 2, using Simeon as a messenger in Lesson 31-16 Hard to express to Diavolo that, if it's discovered that his secrets could affect the Celestial Realm, he will not hesitate to intervene.
Luke[edit source]
Luke reports directly to Michael, despite a massive gap between the two's ranks. This is because, though Luke is the lowest rank of angel, Michael sees a lot of potential in Luke and the power of his protective blessings, and has taken Luke under his wing.
