Shin Megami Tensei IV Final Character Video Series – Daguza

Daguza SMT IV Final

Atlus of Japan’s YouTube account will be periodically posting character videos for Shin Megami Tensei IV Final on the way to its February 10 release date. Today’s video is for Daguza. Daguza revives the protagonist and bestows him with the power to control demons. Daguza is likely not so charitable for its own sake – and in the occasional pieces of promotional images we see that Daguza is likely affiliated with the Polytheistic Alliance (Daguza makes mention of Krishna a few times near the video’s end), a group comprised of deities who unsuccessfully attempt to lobby Merkabah and Lucifer to their side. This was all in a gambit to subjugate humanity through a massive coalition of godlike beings, instead of gods warring against each other and then one victor subjugating humanity. To that end, the protagonist may be a helpful tool to the Alliance’s goal. Or he may not be…it’s up to you!

It’s rather long, at about 2:30 minutes, and the extended monologue and sprite animation is a rather unexpected direction. I rather like how Daguza is animated here. But be warned, the same revival sequence that you see once is repeated about half a dozen times, so if you don’t know Japanese you’ll have to learn to love the animation of Daguza floating around.
