Blue Exorcist Character Guidebook 2: Mephisto

Info on Mephisto from the new guidebook! Each character has a profile followed by relevant questions from fans, and then there's an interview section later where Kazue Katoh gives commentary on each major character and each manga arc. I have more guidebook than time, so I'm skipping the parts that are just like...summarizing who he is and stuff. So this will mostly be fan questions and Katoh's commentary

Biographical info

Gender: Male Age: (°w°) Rank/Titles: Director of True Cross Academy and head of the exorcism cram school, Honorary Knight for the Knights of the True Cross, King of Time Anniversary [T/N Katoh gives demons these in lieu of a birthday]: August 28 Blood type: ( ʹ - ʼ ) Height: 195 cm (184 cm without the "horn") Weight: 74 kg Skills and interests: movies, manga, anime, games, music, toys, miscellaneous subcultures

Fan Q&A

How do members of the Knights of the True Cross usually find out that Mephisto is a demon king?

I think some people might find out from books, the internet, etc even before they become exorcists. They do publish demon field guides that you can find at regular libraries, and Mephisto seems like the type to mention it in online interviews. Rin was the only one who didn't know.

How long has he had his current body?

About 200 years.

Which media from Assiah has had the greatest impact on him?

I imagine he would have been shocked the first time he saw a cinematograph.

Mephisto really likes all sorts of entertainment; has he ever tried making something himself?

Demons in general (not just Mephisto) tend to be bad at creative pursuits, though there are exceptions. Mephisto has a certain respect for human creativity.

Why is he so fond of Beelzebub?

Beelzebub just kind of struck a chord with him. Meanwhile, Beelzebub also likes being spoiled by Mephisto.

Which other demon kings get along with Mephisto the best?

In order: 1. Beelzebub 2. Amaimon 3. Egyn 4. Astaroth 5. Iblis 6. Lucifer [T/N it took me like an entire minute to work out that Azazel is the one missing from this list. Presumably because he's a rock]

Has Mephisto ever altered the past?

He sure does say a lot of things that imply that! [T/N: Katoh. Katoh. Katoh.]

How rich is Mephisto exactly?

He's actually one of the world's top businessmen and investors. His total assets are probably over one trillion yen [T/N: Jesus f*ck][T/N: that's about US$6.7 billion]

Author interview

Mephisto is a character who can solve just about anything; does that make him hard to write? Honestly, he's super easy to deploy. Mephisto has the plot in the palm of his hand and can fix stuff behind the scenes; he's the one pulling the strings. For adaptations and spinoffs, I just say "if you need to fill in a plot hole, make it Mephisto's fault" (laughs). But I do think it's dangerous to overdo it.

He even took on a sort of narrator role in chapter 44, didn't he? Around Volume 10, I was trying to treat each chapter like its own self-contained oneshot. Mephisto didn't even feel out of place as an omniscient narrator for one chapter, and for me that really drove home what a convenient character he is. Though I'm always wondering when and how to show Mephisto's own serious motives and inner thoughts, since he does fall into that eternal comic narrator role.

He can suddenly turn terrifying just when you were thinking he was comical. Hidden depths. Fundamentally he's on the humans' side, and he's often in charge of comic relief, but I do want to show his demonic side too. Same with the familiars; I want to portray the demons as something humans are afraid of.

WAIT. Thomas Wayne Junior. Silver St. Cloud. I am seeing a vision.

Mother. Father. Uncle. Aunt. Disastrous bisexual energy. Trailer park Rapunzel and Flynn. Barbie and Raquelle. Bruce’s number one ship since he was 5. Uncle who CANNOT be left to babysit the batkids + aunt who buys Jason guns. “That’s self-care for guys, right?”

Fun F4ct: Clouds have a very airy and transparent t3xture, so they give off the illusion of being light and fluffy. However, th3 average cumulus cl0ud weighs over 1,100,000 pounds/500,000 kilograms, which is more than 100 elephants! Additiona11y, freefalling thr0ugh a cloud would leave you w3t, and the ice in the cloud would sting you! (˵ •̀ ᴗ •́ ˵ ) ✧

On procreate, what brushes do you use 👀

I use a mass majority of these!! All of these brushes are in the original library that comes with the purchase of Procreate

Will say I rotate through HB No. 1 (sketching and line art) Studio Pen (color fill/cell shading) Soft Airbrush (soft shading/gradient) and Noise (soft shading) the most in comparison to when that last post was made!

today's study

[bunsterkeaton]

Grease / Grayson Holtz lives a fairly mundane life after getting out of prison, he settled on a planet that has relatively lax laws of check ins/parole. In fact, the parole officer he speaks to most is the ones managing his employees cases. Although he is supposed to be forbidden from gambling and required to go to addiction meetings if caught-they can't control what happens off planet.
