Nyami Nyami, Onyakapon, Anansi!

Damn, they're all pretty good, too. Anansi especially is one of his best designs yet, I think. On a level with Sukuna Hikona and Mephisto. Finally, a fruitful application for the Doi peg-legs. I'd also be curious to know if Onyakapon is cribbed from anything in particular. I doubt it's directly adapted from any one traditional source, based on the overall construction and the continuity of these sort of art deco motifs, but maybe something Mizuki or Mizuki-adjacent.

He did mention in the Manananggal commentary wanting to design more demons from the cultures of the global south, so it's nice that he's not being suffocated by production demands in that regard.

New SMT V Vengeance demons: Mystery guy revealed as Onyankopon. Anansi official reveal.

Ok so, brief post because I hyped you all so much for this reveal, and I didn't wanted to sleep on it.

The demon we have been scratching our heads to know about is Onyankopon, which will be from the Enigma race.

Onyankopon is one of the names of Nyame, a god worshipped in west Africa. I personally did not know much about him before, have only read his names somewhere around books or the internet.

This God is supposed to be all knowing and supreme. But it seems that Doi wanted to draw inspiration from other Enigma demons, and also clay figurines. The first thing when you look up this deity on the internet, are clay figurines, so makes sense. Doi made his eyes hollow, maybe to imply that its real form is inside the clay body, but we can't know for sure. It is also missing an arm for some reason.

I was pointed out on discord by Nawell, that in an extensive book on Ashanti folklore, theres mention that Anansi wanted Nyame's knowledge and tried to get it from him. Maybe they will both be featured in some kind of quest, where you have to side with one of them, like every area in Vanilla.

I honestly don't know much of Ashanti beliefs to state anything meaningful right now. But I will love to research it more deeply when I have the time.

Same goes for Anansi, although he is pretty well known in Brazil through African religions. But one can summarize Anansi as a trickster character, that is associated with spiders and really, really wants knowledge.

Honestly? Great designs! It was already time for African deities to be properly represented in SMT. Doi nailed it, and I'm glad the general reception dor these new SMT demons is generally positive.

Ah and... Nyami Nyami featured earlier this week, now has a key art:

What did you think of these new designs? I think I can dissect them properly once I get less busy! But overall I loved them!

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance announced for PS5, Xbox Series, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC - Gematsu

From Gematsu

ATLUS has announced Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC (Steam, Microsoft Store). It will launch on June 21 worldwide. Pre-orders will open on February 27.

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance is an enhanced version of Shin Megami Tensei V, which originally launched for Switch in November 2021.

Here is an overview of the game, via ATLUS:

The latest title in the series, Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance allows players to enjoy the story of Shin Megami Tensei V in its entirety, with a new story path, untold in the original. Massively expanded with new areas, demons, and music, Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance features more accessible gameplay, an improved battle system, new demon experiences, and greater field exploration. Pre-orders for the Nintendo Switch family of systems (physical only), PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Steam, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC will begin on February 27, 2024. Details on digital pre-orders for Nintendo Switch will be announced at a later date. When a grisly murder scene in modern-day Tokyo blocks the protagonist’s walk home, an unplanned detour leaves him buried and unconscious. He finds himself in a wasteland ravaged by apocalypse now called Da’at. Before bloodthirsty demons can claim his life, a savior emerges, and they unite to become a mighty being, neither human nor demon: a Nahobino. Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance delivers a full-fledged RPG that can be enjoyed by existing and new fans. At the start of the game, players will choose between two paths: the story told in Shin Megami Tensei V, the Canon of Creation, or the brand-new Canon of Vengeance. This dramatic new tale of revenge introduces brand-new characters, an enigmatic cohort of demons called the Qadištu, a new dungeon and map to explore. Additionally, the original Shin Megami Tensei V battle system, demon merging and field exploration have been evolved and expanded in this newest entry in the series.

And here are further details:

■ What is Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance?

Released in 2021, ATLUS’s renowned RPG Shin Megami Tensei V has sold more than one million copies worldwide. This highly acclaimed game has evolved in every aspect, including the system and scenario, and will be available on multiple modern platforms! At the beginning of the story, the player is presented between two routes. The story told in Shin Megami Tensei V, the Canon of Creation, and a brand-new route, Canon of Vengeance, a dramatic tale of revenge by the fallen. The Canon of Vengeance follows the scenario of SMTV, but changes drastically from the latter half of the game. The outcome will be completely different. Enjoy the two divergent stories to your heart’s content. The battle system, demon fusion, and field exploration have also evolved in depth with the addition of new elements. We are excited to deliver a full-fledged RPG that can be enjoyed by those who have already played SMTV, as well as those who are playing this series for the first time.

■ Story

Thou shalt be God—. When a grisly murder scence in modern-day Tokyo blocks our protagonist’s walk home, an unplanned detour leaves him buried and unconscious. He awakens in a New Tokyo, a wasteland ravaged by apocalypse now called Da’at – but before bloodthirsty demons can claim his live, a savior emerges, and the two of them unite to become a mighty being, neither human nor demon: a Nahobino. Revenge Awaits—. Demons attack humans and seek to create a world of chaos. Bethel, an organization that seeks to protect God’s order. Caught up in the conflict between the two, while exploring Da’at, the protagonist meets and starts traveling with Yoko Hiromine. Using magic, Yoko and the main character stand together on the front line. The Qadistu, four female Demons stand in their way. “Found it, the Key of Resurrection…” A member of the Qadistu, Lilith calls protagonist the Key of Resurrection, and herself The Oppressed. What is their purpose? A tale of revenge by the oppressed begins.

■ The Oppressed: The Qadistu

In the Canon of Vengeance, four female demons appear in front of the protagonist. Another story of creation told by new Demons.

■ Characters

Lilith (voiced by Katelyn Gault in English)

“I am Lilith of the Qadištu The one to restore the world to what it ought to be.” A woman who is said to have been Adam’s first wife in the Old Testament. Later left Garden of Eden and turned into a demon. Leader of the Qadištu. In order to achieve an unidentified goal, she stands in front of the protagonist.

Protagonist / Nahobino

A high school senior living in Tokyo. On his way back from school, he is involved in a tunnel collapse and wanders into an apocalyptic version of Tokyo, Da’at. His hobby is reading. The protagonist fuses with Aogami and becomes a “Nahobino,” using this power to fight back demons. The decision-making during the Nahobino state lies with the protagonist, and Aogami guides him with his voice.

Aogami (voiced by Damian Mills in English)

“Regardless of what may happen, rest assured that I will always protect you.” A mysterious man who appears before the protagonist, who is being attacked by a demon in Da’at. By taking the protagonist’s hand, he transforms into a condemned being, the Nahobino. He seemingly participated in the war 18 years ago, but his memory of it has slipped away.

Yoko Hiromine (vocied by Erin Yvette in English)

“With no one to save them, in the back of their mind, the victim desires only one thing: revenge against the assailant.” She is a senior in high school at St. Marina Academy. Cool and somewhat mysterious. She meets and works with the protagonist in Da’at. She has always possessed mysterious powers and was once called a “saint”. At the academy, she has been recognized for her power and learned exorcism magic. She also participates in the battles.

■ Over 270 Demons

In addition to existing demons, this title features more than 270 demons, including new demons newly drawn by the character designer Masayuki Doi. Enjoy an incredible demon experience!

On the one hand, SMTV Vengeance is a slap in the face, another in a long line of re-releases that includes content that was certainly partially in development at the same time as the core game, but left on the cutting room floor in favor of getting an inferior product to market sooner

On the other hand

Nahoheeho

Meet Nyami Nyami, new African demon for Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance!

The god of the Zambezi river that flows though the south most part of the African continent. Represented by these statues and wooden carvings along it's path.

Honestly great choice! Doi nailed it in my humble opinion!
