Trivia

• Although it is, like any demon, optional to recruit or keep in the actual games, a Mokoi seems to make up a very important part of Raidou Kuzunoha the XIV's "canonical" demon team. In every single appearance Raidou has made outside of his own games where he summons demons (that is, Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers, The Lone Marebito and the "Chronicles" edition of Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne), the Mokoi has made a major appearance. It is so important in Chronicles, in fact, that it opens the cutscene before the fight between Raidou and the Demi-fiend, in addition to being one of Raidou's major attacks.
  • This Mokoi is often seen using abilities that are all but impossible for a playable Mokoi to possess, such as a powerful boomerang attack. It also has impressive (to say the least) stats when targetable in Soul Hackers.
  • The only other demon to feature so consistently on Raidou's team is Moh Shuvuu.
