Devil Survivor
Koumokuten (named Koumoku due to character space limit) is one of the four Devas that protect the barrier between the demon and human worlds. On every ending save for Yuzu's, in order to gain access to the demon world (and thus, Babel) the player's party needs to dismantle the barrier that the Devas protect. After Bishamon's defeat, Koumoku challenges the player's party with Zouchou, planning to make up their lack of power with numbers.
Koumoku and Zouchou are unlocked for fusion after the player defeats them.
