[digimontamerrichie-tcg]

In Digimon Tamers, Zhuqiaomon was solely responsible for the creation of the Deva, who it sent to abduct Calumon. However, in broader Digimon lore, it is but one of four Digimon sovereign (a group of Digimon who previously appeared in Digimon Adventure 02, with the focus on Azulongmon) each of whom rule over three of the Deva.

After meeting Shu-Chong "Suzie" Wong, Antylamon defected to the side of the protagonists.

The Deva are all based on signs of the Chinese Zodiac.

Azulongmon of the East rules over Mihiramon (the tiger), Antylamon (the rabbit), and Majiramon (the dragon).

Ebonwumon of the North rules over Vikaralamon (the pig), Kumbhiramon (the rat), and Vajramon (the bull).

Baihumon of the West rules over Makuramon (the monkey), Sinduramon (the chicken), and Caturamon (the dog).

Finally, Zhuqiaomon of the South rules over Sandiramon (the snake), Indaramon (the horse), and Pajiramon (the sheep).

Embodying the center of the Earth is Huanglongmon.

Mod-chan’s Thinking Weird Stuff

Okay, high-key hear me out. 

I can’t be the only one who think the Four Dark Devas of Destruction listen to the Hampster Dance song while Gundam is away.

Digimon Tamers: The Devas versus Hypnos

For those who find it easier to sympathize with Hypnos than the Devas. I personally find Hypnos despicable, but I will try to remain non-biased for the sake of this comparison.

Both of these groups are afraid of the opposing species, Hypnos is afraid of Digimon and wishes to eradicate them, and the Devas feel the same way only about humans instead. Some find this strange, due to the fact that Digimon are so dangerous compared to humans, but there are some things you need to realize. While it is true that Digimon have enough power to destroy cities, do not underestimate the amount of damage that humans can do to Digimon.

1: Danger level Digimon-Digimon can easily destroy cities completely by accident. This makes reasoning with them hard because often they don’t even realize the damage they’re causing. Humans-Humans created the Digital World in the first place. They have the ability to create such things as the Juggernaut program and the creator of the Digital World created the D-Reaper which destroyed most of the Digital World and is the main reason the Devas needed to kidnap Calumon in the first place. The creator of the Digital World initially created the D-Reaper to be helpful, imagine what a human could do with the kind of power he had if they were instead trying to destroy the Digital World?

2: Why the hate? Digimon-Hypnos doesn’t seem to outright hate the Digimon much, they’re just afraid of the damage they can cause. That being said, they are not above eradicating every last Digimon. Humans-Makuramon covers this one pretty well in his big speech in Episode 23 “You polluted your world, and then started messing with ours! We had to evolve and adapt just to survive.” The humans have caused quite a lot of strife for the Digimon, plus... y’know... the bloody D-Reaper.

Digimon may be much stronger, but humans were the ones who created them in the first place. Hypnos is afraid of Digimon because of what they could do. The Devas are afraid of humans because of what they have done. And I find that terrifying.
