OVA
Description
Zenki is a Demon God originally sealed by the Bodhisattva Ozunu Enno following their joint victory over the evil Karuma. He possesses distinctive black and red hair, piercing red eyes, pointed ears, and a prominent fang. His formidable appearance features detailed armor and a circlet marked with a third eye. Centuries later, Ozunu's descendant, Chiaki Enno, breaks his seal, though he initially manifests in a diminutive "Chibi" state. Accessing his true, powerful Demon God form requires Chiaki's magical bracelet, essential for combating supernatural threats. His elemental affinities are fire and thunder, earning him titles such as the God of Crimson Thunder Light.
Wild, defiant, and fiercely freedom-loving, Zenki harbors deep resentment toward the Enno lineage over his unexplained sealing, initially directing this fury at Chiaki. Their relationship is contentious, defined by frequent arguments and mutual frustration, yet evolves into a dynamic akin to quarreling siblings. Despite this friction, Zenki reluctantly acknowledges his dependence on Chiaki for sustaining his power and existence. He exhibits a sarcastic wit, often mocking others with blunt observations, and possesses a large, fragile ego that fluctuates dramatically with his size transformations. His battle style is reckless and showy in his true form, contrasting sharply with more cautious behavior in his Chibi state.
A defining trait is his addiction to Hyouinomi, the eyeball-like fruits left by defeated Hyouijuu monsters. Consuming these not only satisfies his craving but also purifies their inherent evil miasma and restores his health. This purification ability is a significant source of pride, distinguishing him from entities who exploit such powers for personal gain. As a guardian, he protects locations like Shikigami-chou and upholds the Enno legacy, though he constantly chafes against this servitude, yearning for freedom.
In the "Anki Kitan" OVA, Zenki confronts Kagura, a regenerative demon sustained by sacrificial rituals. During this battle, Chiaki demonstrates the ability to transform him directly from his Chibi state into his Great Demon God form, bypassing his intermediate Demon God state—a feat consistent with manga adaptations. Kagura's potent regenerative abilities, including regrowing severed limbs and sprouting additional arms mid-fight, pose a major challenge. Zenki engages this threat with characteristic ferocity.
Zenki's history traces back a millennium when he descended to earth as a thunderbolt to save humanity from the Evil Dragon King of Hell, Ryuuma-ou-Mikado. Defeated, he was aided by Ozunu Enno, Vasara, and Goki. This alliance led to his service under Ozunu, who enhanced his powers with the Diamond Horn and Vajura's holy light. Once evil was vanquished, Zenki's restless nature and Hyouinomi addiction resulted in his sealing. His past includes camaraderie with Goki, the Azure Light Demon God, though Goki is absent from the events of "Anki Kitan."
