Mephistopheles Discussion/Analysis
Like Levi said in Nightbringer Lesson 13-A Mephistopheles is a jerk but MAN is his self imagine, backstory and desperation to be useful/full-fill his âlifeâs purposeâ just . . . Sad.
On the Official Obey Me Nightbringer website Mephistopheles is described as:
A proud demon born to nobles. Raised from a young age to be a playmate for Diavolo, but he is worried that Diavolo will lose interest in him because of the appearance of the brothers.
However thereâs so much more to it then that.
Mephistopheles was born with the sole purpose from his family to be Diavoloâs right-hand man.
A position heâs already begun to lose which terrifies him. Something so clear Mammon catches onto it when he tries picking a fight with the brothers.
Mammon: âLike, I think I know what the deal is with you. Youâre scared that Luciferâs gonna replace ya as Lord Diavoloâs right-hand man, arenât ya?â
Thereâs a reason Mephisto mentions this to MC:
Which makes Mephistophelesâ reaction to Diavolo saying, âI consider you a dear friend.â sadder.
You still think of me that way.
Also itâs not a coincidence that Mephistophelesâ visits completely stopped a little after Diavolo took the brothers in.
Along with his father having him begin attending the House of Lord sessions more frequently.
Itâs Devildomâs complicated politics and the House of Lords AKA Devildom nobility using Mephisto.
Despite him being the one to deliver the House of Lordâs letter to Diavolo they didnât even explain the full extent of their plans to Mephistopheles.
The House of Lords is using the situation with Beel to put Diavolo at a disadvantage to increase the possibility of Diavolo failing the Kingsblood Crucible.
Which isnât what Mephistopheles wants.
He tells the brothers, âAs long as we refuse to accept you, your opinions donât matter. You wonât be running things here in the Devildom.â Which is funny when thatâs what the House of Lords is trying to do.
Adding onto this I find these lines when Mephisto is expressing his concern to Diavolo so interesting:
Mephisto understands Diavoloâs reason for allowing the brothers into Devildom. He just canât understand why Diavolo is so invested on a personal level.
While Mephistopheles tries to be Diavoloâs right-hand man he is blind to Diavoloâs actual needs. Diavolo craves friendship, to be perceived outside his Royal status which Mephisto will not do.
Mephistopheles ALWAYS addresses Diavolo as Lord Diavolo even when heâs not around.
Mephisto also considers himself far more trustworthy then the brothers but has yet to realize his nobility and family make him someone Diavolo cannot fully put his trust into.
While with the brothers thereâs the situation regarding Luciferâs oath.
Some may consider Mephisto expecting us to escort him out to be snobbish but thatâs curtsey among Devildom nobility.
Which is almost all Mephisto knows.
In the present day during Obey Me Shall We Date in the Memory Card Letâs Take Pictures we learn heâs never been to an arcade. In Hard Mode Lesson 70-6 we learn heâs never eaten a fast food burger, he gets driven around in a expensive car and has a butler. He lives a very sheltered life.
While Diavolo and Mephisto are on friendly terms in the present they definitely arenât as close. Itâs almost like thereâs an even larger barrier or wall between them. Which is due to their inability to open up and understand each other.
Being something useful to Diavolo is still something Mephistopheles craves.
OG Lesson 68-7 when transported to the flower garden inside the Demon Lordâs Castle. Certain characters get taken in by a flowerâs illusion. One of them being Mephistopheles and what he imagines is silly yet so depressing.
Mephisto just wants to be valued and seen as someone worthy. Especially to Diavolo.
Mephistoâs fight with the brothers in Nightbringer is the perfect example of how he will use his ego, be condescending and rude as a defense mechanism.
In the present day he will often praise/gloat about himself and against the brothers use the fact he was born a demon while they were once angels. To help him stop from feeling inferior. Second best. Not good enough.
However despite it all he still lives earnestly.
WHICH IS THE THING I LOVE MOST ABOUT HIM!!!
He doesnât use his position in the Newspaper Club to spread lies. Instead only reporting the truth.
Lesson 68-17 : When Mephistopheles risks getting severely injured to save Luke. As everyone is praising him he responds to Luke saying, âItâs not like you need to thank me or anything. It wasnât a big deal.â
Lesson 70-16 Hard: When fan letters for Asmo got delivered to the newspaper club he took the time try and bring them to Asmo. Luke told him he was really considerate.
Mephistopheles simply responded, âW . . .Well, itâs just a box of letters. It wasnât that big of a deal for me to bring it here. And someone bothered to write and send each one of these letters. When I considered that, I couldnât just leave them undelivered, could I?â
Lesson 72-17 : When MC bumps into him he catches us so we dont fall and hurt ourself. When you thank him he says, âI only did what anyone would do. Thereâs no need to thank me.â
Mephistopheles doesnât perceive his kind acts as anything noteworthy because he simply believes thatâs what everyone would do. WHICH ISNâT TRUE!
Even Luke comments how his behavior isnât like most demons. Mephistopheles is the final key to helping Luke realize he was wrong about demons.
Lesson 77-A: The way Luke brings sweet treats to share with Mephisto, hangs out with him and when Luke falls asleep Mephistopheles lets him sleep there IS ADORABLE HOW CAN YALL HATE THIS MAN!!!!
Despite his rudeness Mephistopheles is such an interesting complex character and massive lovable dork who sucks at tongue twisters! I hope overtime he gets more fans!!!
