History
The Angel Devil's last memory was supposedly on a coast village where he found a community of people who took him in and looked after him, even if he was a Devil. In that community, he supposedly dated a young woman who he described as "The one I loved, and the one who loved me".

Afterwards the community and his supposed girlfriend went to the beach, when suddenly Makima arrived, asking to see his devil powers. Though he refused at first, she insisted, ordering him to use them. He then reawoke hours later, having absorbed the lives of everyone in the village.

In Chapter 74, he suddenly remembers his past after Makima commands Aki to accept a contract. Intending to fight Makima, he uses 10 years of life force to create a blade. However, she merely says the word "Down" and the Angel Devil crumples to the floor. She kneels next to him, ordering him to give his all to her. Possessed by the power of mental control, Angel Devil agrees to being Makima´s dog and obey her orders.

Abilities
As a Devil, the Angel Devil possesses all of the standard devil abilities. Besides standard abilities, the Angel Devil possess unique ability to absorb life-spans with a simple touch, which makes him really strong. The Angel Devil is considered to be Division 4's second-strongest agent after Captain Kishibe but his laziness holds him back.

Physical Prowess

 * Enhanced Reflexes: Angel has superhuman reflexes, being fast enough to block bullets with his wings and keep up with Quanxi's immense speed.

Supernatural Abilities

 * Angelic Wings: The Angel Devil has the ability to extend angel like wings from its back. These wings are tough enough to deflect gunfire and can be used as impromptu shields, however bullets are still powerful enough to cause him pain. It is unknown if he can fly, similar to the Bat Devil.Makima attacks Kobeni.png


 * Life-Span Absorption: The Angel Devil can absorb the life spans of humans through physical contact. This will eventually kill the affected one painlessly if they touch long enough. After Aki briefly grabbed his hand, the Angel Devil estimated that Aki had lost two months of his life span.
 * Life-Span Weapons: The Angel Devil can transform the siphoned life spans into weapons that have supernatural properties through his halo such as Aki's katana which can cut through the normally intangible Ghost Devil. Due to his nightmares about the people whose life spans he has siphoned, he is hesitant to use this ability frequently.
 * Usage: Five Years: By using up five years worth of collected life span, the Angel Devil can manifest a sword from his halo which can seemingly instantly kill anyone that he cuts with it without leaving a mark.
 * Usage: Ten Years (10): By using up ten years worth of collected life span, the Angel Devil can manifest a sword from his halo. Its effect and strength remain unknown because it was used against Makima and she quickly knocked him down before he attacks.
 * Usage: 100 Years (100): By using up a hundred years worth of collected life span, the Angel Devil can manifest a sword from his halo. This ability is used by Makima against Power while she is controlling the Angel Devil.
 * Usage: 1,000 Years: By using up thousand years worth of collected life span, the Angel Devil can manifest a spear from his halo. This ability is used by Makima against the Chainsaw Man while she is controlling the Angel Devil. Makima threw this spear by summoning three humanoid entities. This technique is strong enough to defeat the Chainsaw Devil.

Skillset

 * Spear Proficiency: The Angel Devil is skilled at using spears in combat; accurately throwing a spear through Reze from a nearby rooftop.
 * Swordsmanship: The Angel Devil can use a sword with some skill, cutting down five of Santa Claus' puppets in a single swing.

Trivia

 * Angel Devil's appearance is based on the lowest classifications of angels, simply called angels. They are the most commonly depicted angels in classic paintings from the medieval and renaissance times. The other Angels on the lowest order of the angelic hierarchy are Archangels and Principalities.
 * Contrary to popular belief, humanoid angels are also biblically accurate and an angel's appearance depends on their ranking in the celestial hierarchy. It would make sense for Angel Devil to be humanoid because, aside from being friendlier, it is the ranking of angels whose appearances have been the most known amongst all angels, even if in actuality angels are diverse. It is also not impossible for Angel Devil to take on the appearance of different angel rankings in different lives either.
 * Angel's appearance might be based on Lucifer, who is depicted with auburn hair in the painting "The Fallen Angel" by Alexandre Cabanel. Lucifer is often described as beautiful, just as Angel is depicted as attractive, so much that Denji briefly considered him a potential partner before dropping the idea since Angel is male.
 * It is possible that Angel's ability to steal and weaponize life span could be because sometimes angels are symbolic of or associated with death, dead beings, or seen when dying.
 * He is one of the followers of Chainsaw Man. Other followers of Chainsaw Man were Power, Beam, Galgali, Princi, Seraphim, Dominion and Virtue.
 * Angel Devil's rankings in the Popularity Polls are as follows:
 * Angel ranked 6th in the First Popularity Poll with 13,374 votes.
 * Angel ranked 7th in the Second Popularity Poll with 27,761 votes.
 * Angel Devil's death has long been the subject of debate among the fandom, as it was never fully depicted or pictured in the manga. It was later confirmed in an interview with Tatsuki Fujimoto that he had indeed passed away.
 * This was also the result of Fujimoto letting his editor, Shihei Lin, decide who should die between Kobeni and Angel Devil. Lin had picked Kobeni to die, as he did not want Angel to suffer that fate. Fujimoto then assumed that if the readers did not want Angel to die, then he should perhaps truly kill him off.
