Trivia[]

  • Like Echidna, Amanojaku has a theme opposite of its alignment.
  • In the iOS localization of Shin Megami Tensei, this demon is called "Amanojaku" in the demonic compendium, but in the visionary scene "Bloody Apron," it is addressed as "Amano Sakugami" instead. In the Japanese version of Shin Megami Tensei, he is consistently known as "Amano Sakugami."
