Demonology in Anime

For some reason or other and perhaps due to the animators fasciantion with the other worldly life forms, anime is infused with elements such as demons, owing influence to the Shinto, Buddhism, and judeo-christainity.

Among the many demons and former demons that live in this highly dynamic artworld of anime is Lucifer, sometimes refered to as The Fallen Angel, other times as Satan, and on occasion as the Light Bringer. Lucifer is alluded to in anime such as Silent Mobius and Neon Genesis Evangelion, among others.

So anyway, discuss or mention some anime with a particularly interesting demon, however the demon should coem from a religion source.

Something about Eva:

Read up on a Lucifer site:

Lastly, there is too much obsession with angels in anime.

I'd like to know an anime which makes allusions to the Sacred Laws of Heptaparaparshinokh and Triamazikamno. Only then will I be convinced of its' spiritual value
