Hello! I love pretty much every member of OM's cast, but I just can't warm up to Satan. Interest-wise, he's a lot like me- you think I'd fall for the introverted, cat-loving bookworm. But I just can't get past his anger issues.
I never got SUPER far into the original story, and am only a few chapters into Nightbringer atm so I really hope my opinion changes. But pretty much every Satan interaction I've had is him belittling his brothers/calling them idiots, throwing things at them or going into blind rages over nothing and acting like it's everyone else's fault.
I'm not trying to diss on the character itself or those that like him- I'm actually posting this because I want to be able to change my perspective on him!! I would love to hear from Satan enjoyers as to why they love him so much.
Mhm! I made this post because I wanted my view on him to be challenged and hopefully make me more optimistic about his character growth and it definitely did.
I like the last paragraph especially, thank you! I am a survivor of the same. I think I'm letting my personal experiences cloud my perception of Satan a little too much, especially taking into consideration they're kind of at the mercy of their sins at first and Satan has it worse than the others like you said.
Gotcha, ty! Definitely looking forward to getting farther in NB's story haha. Held back by my card power right now :''c
Haha I do like picturing him as a feral cat in NB!
Ty for this! And I appreciate the spoiler tag. Personally I like learning everything I can about series I'm into even if it's a spoiler I haven't personally experienced.
I think I only warmed up to Belphie because of his Surprise Guest dialogue ngl. 😳
true! I know due to some personal experiences I really do not jive well with people who can't control their anger. But as long as Satan develops over time I wanna give him a chance!
Ahh thank you! So a lot of NB is before he gets his sin under control I assume which is why I haven't had super favorable interactions with him. I'll be looking forward to him changing over time c:
I was thinking about getting back into the original too but I'm already juggling like 4 gacha games, and I don't love how the SWD games feel without vip.
I definitely have a new perspective on him after getting all these passionate responses, enjoy the Satan love!
I played the original SWD for a while too! But I still never super clicked w him. I definitely feel like his NB portrayal has been rubbing me the wrong way a lot more though which is why I wanted to make this post! I got a lot of helpful insight. C:

Thank you for this!! Super insightful response that dives into his character. I can definitely relate to putting on a mask and I understand how difficult and draining it can be.
