CHARACTER↴
Character Name: Lucifer / Hanzo Urushihara
Age: Appears 15, legally 18 in Japan due to falsified paperwork, canonly... really old. At least over 2000.
Species: Fallen angel.
Canon: The Devil Is A Part-Timer!
Canon Point: Post-anime series, end of Book 5.
Character Info: http://hataraku.wikia.com/wiki/Hanz%C5%8D_Urushihara
Personality: Both the English and Japanese audios in the anime give us different insights into Lucifer's personality, but they line up the same. The English dub has him a little bit snarkier, and the Japanese has him a little bit less jerkass-y.

In either version, he's not particularly unkind. He acts out of selfish need but occasionally does things for sheer good intentions, such as an incident in episode 13 when he sells his external hard drive to help the poor household rake in some money. He calls Ashiya an ambulance when the latter is sick from poisoned food, and picks up Emi's belongings when she falls down the stairs. Unfortunately, his status as the series chew toy often makes his best intentions lead the characters into bad luck. The other characters treat him poorly, and he often calls them out on it, though his complaints are often downplayed to mere background noise. As he's treated with no respect, from not being invited out to eat to not even getting a place at the family table when they have guests over, he rarely shows respect to anyone. The only characters who seem to be able to get him to do anything are Suzuno and Maou, and even then, Lucifer will make his complaints heard. As such, his loyalties generally shift to align with his motivations, going from Watcher of the Angels to fallen angel to Demon General to teenager in the legal custody of Sadou Maou in the span of a few hundred years.

His personality doesn't seem to have changed much in his transition from Demon General Lucifer to basement-dweller Hanzō Urushihara. He has a distaste for humans and loves to cause chaos, though he'll do so when he can be bothered to put forth the effort. More than once he's shown an interest in returning to Heaven, but it's plainly apparent that he's at his happiest in the small, crowded apartment where Maou and Ashiya live. He's constantly bickering with Emi and Ashiya, but seems more in-tune with Chiho's feelings towards Maou than the other male characters. He also willingly, though begrudgingly, helps out with housework or cooking when urged to by Suzuno. Maou remains the only one he is steadfastly loyal to, though he does whine for food more often than is befitting a demon lord.

When it comes to productivity, despite his bursts of laziness, there are also bursts of insight. His time as both the Watcher and as one of Satan's generals proves he is resourceful and cunning. The fact that he was able to learn to hack and navigate a technology that doesn't exist on his home world in such a short time showcases his intelligence and adaptability. The GPS trackers he placed on Emi and Suzuno end up becoming the key reason that Sariel doesn't kill Emi and defeat the main characters, which is a good sign of his foresight. In addition, though his warnings are undermined as his usual snark, he does very strongly hint that Ashiya's sickness was caused by the celestial force supplement that Suzuno was using to poison the demons' food. He likes his video games and takes pride in being a hermit, using it as an excuse to not help the landlady with selling souvenirs and even boasting that "Being a NEET is awesome!" after taking down Olba during Maou's fight with Sariel.

A rarer side of Lucifer shows that he craves acceptance that he was never given as an archangel and is hardly given now as a leech in Maou's apartment. He has a tendency to be easily offended and oversensitive, but at times in the novels aims to surpass others' poor images of him, changing from the demon general that burned down Emilia's village and kidnapped Chiho to the "teenager" that proclaimed Heaven on Earth was the tiny apartment with his family. If shown any kindness or respect, he would be uncertain how to handle it, likely spurning the affections or feigning arrogance at first, then later growing fond of the individual in question. Having Lucifer as an ally is difficult to accomplish but worth the effort in the end, for why else would Lucifer be so loyal to the Maou household, given how he's treated?

Abilities: As a fallen angel with fully functional feathered wings, he can fly and levitate. He has great speed and agility in flight, and his wings can explode at will. He can do basic magic skills like shoot bullets of arcane energy, create electrical storms, and teleport. Since he's one of the ancient angels, he is unable to be killed, though obviously sustaining a serious amount of damage will put him out of commission for awhile. As one of Satan's generals, he also has the ability (and tendency) to feed off of negative emotions like fear, hatred, anger, and despair, and he has a strong power of suggestion, which makes it easier for him to invoke these emotions in others, and easy for him to tell if someone is lying. Less under "powers" and more under "skills," he is a talented hacker and is generally good with technology.

CARNIVAL↴
Soul Colour: Dark purple.
Ideal Jobs: Patrol, Game Operator, Daredevil, Thief, Conman
Relevant Experience: Patrol - As one of Satan's generals, he is already used to scouting out enemy invasions and fighting them off if needed. He prefers not to fight if it can be avoided, but if it can't be, he will quite happily attempt to blast someone into pieces.

Game Operator - He's constantly bored and always looking for tasks to occupy his time and mind. Since he is a gamer by nature, he would (probably) not be lying when attempting to sell how enjoyable a time-killing game might be.

Daredevil - He is a bit of a show-pony and takes great pride in his abilities, especially once he gets away from the hostile environment that is his apartment in Japan. Whether it be disappearing or exploding an object with his magic or performing insane aerial tricks with his wings, any acknowledgement to boost his pride would please him. (Read as: he's a bit of an attention whore.)

Thief/Conman - He's a fallen angel for a reason, and if he had to be labeled with one sin, it would be pride. He detests most people around him, and would gladly lie, cheat, blackmail, bribe, or outright steal things he or his boss needs. His small and unimposing size would make him less likely to seem like the culprit if he got caught, but chances are? He wouldn't get caught.

Reason for Joining: Boredom. No, really. Lucifer has a nasty habit of selling his infinite amount of time and his rather useful skillset for nothing more than a temporary reprieve from the utter dullness that is immortality. Chances are, he would ask the Ringmaster if he could be part of the Circus just because of that same boredom that led him to join Satan so long ago. In exchange... Honestly, he'd ask for video games. That's all he wants because that's all he does when he's not doing some form of evil minion work. He'd want WiFi or video games.

Prose:

Lucifer had never been to the circus. The demon world had their own disturbing forms of celebration, while angels did nothing of the sort. And in Japan, he'd never had the pleasure. He heard Satan and the hero Emilia gush about taking their strange little daughter to the amusement park, but it wasn't quite the same thing as a carnival. Despite being a bit of a hermit by nature, even Lucifer couldn't find much to complain about with such light and life around him.

True, it was all a little too happy for him, but beggars couldn't be choosers. That was also why Lucifer had elected to ride the Ferris wheel, just to see what all the fuss was about. As the metal monstrosity creaked and struggled to lift him higher, inch by boring inch, he continued to wonder what the big deal was. Was this just what people did to give themselves the illusion of flight? Or was it meant to be scary, being so high up, helpless to save one's own life should the thing collapse and plummet you towards certain death?

Lucifer leaned over the edge of his seat, rocking back and forth in it as the machine finally jerked to a sudden and yet somehow oh-so-predictable stop. He squinted, his eyes glinting in the dark as he tried to find out if this had been done on purpose. As the moments ticked by, he couldn't help himself anymore. It hadn't even been a minute, but the lack of movement was too much for him. Scoffing, he spread his wings and got out of his seat. Two flaps and he was gone, over Gamer's Circle and as far away from the Ferris wheel as he could get. He alighted by the front entrance, where he expected there would be less people to see him do what was almost certainly against the rules. Hoping no one had seen that, he folded his wings smugly behind him, cast one last, disdainful look towards the malfunctioning Ferris wheel, and went off to find something else to do.

Urushihara's Theme

KANA:

Call again. Call again. Deep-fright! Chill-king! Choke-die!

これじゃ足りないよ ... そこにあるじゃない
もっとよこしなよ ... 満たされないんだ

欲しいものはなんでも一歩も動かないで
この指の一つで総てを手にいれるんだ

天の国の栄光なんてね、くだらないよ ... 此処が楽園なんだ
何も生み出すつもりもない！何か成し遂げるつもりもない！
堕天の甘美な悦楽にこの身を委ねてしまうだけ
退屈させないで

これで終わりかい ... そんなわけないね？
全部よこしなよ ... 満ち足りたいんだ

知りたけりゃ教えようまさにね、全能なんだ
この指の一つで知識の実はいらないね

たかが人が創りしものでも、構わないよ ... 此処は楽園なんだ
何も生み出すつもりもない！何か成し遂げるつもりもない！
堕落の果ての快楽にこの身を貶てしもうだけ
退屈しないよね

(お前の魔王と勇者への怨みと絶望。。。この僕が糧とし、
現実にしてやる。茶番はその辺で終わりだ。
僕が幕を引いてやるよ！)(1)

天の国の栄光なんてね、くだらないよ ... 何処が楽園なんだい
悦びなんてひとつもない ... それでも祝福されたいかい？
神の使いとか言うくせに仏頂面の奴等ばかり
皮肉なもんだよね〜
はたらかない！疲れるだけだよ、ここに居れば成し遂げられるから
お腹がすけばご飯くれる、買う物の方がやってくる
六畳一間の悦楽にこの世の総てがあるんだよ？
もう、働きたくない！そう、二ートが最高！ああ、おなかがすいた！

ROMAJI:

ENGLISH:

Call again. Call again. Deep-fright! Chill-king! Choke-die!

It's not enough... It's not what I want.
Don't give me any more... It won't satisfy me.

I will not move, no matter what it is you want from me.
I can get anything, by moving only one finger.

The glory of the kingdom of Heaven is full of shit... Paradise is right here.
I don’t want to do anything! I don’t want to accomplish anything!
I surrender this body to the luscious pleasure of the fallen.
This isn't boring anymore!

Is this the end, or... You won't leave me here like this, right?
I want it all! I want to be happy!

I can teach you all you want, if I am your God.
I control the fruit of knowledge, by moving only one finger.

Even if this place is of human creation... Paradise is right here.
I don’t have to do anything! I don’t have to accomplish anything!
I will become corrupted by the luscious pleasure of the fallen.
I'm not bored anymore!

(To you, the Devil King and the Hero, grudge and despair...
Feed yourselves on that! Let's end this farce already!
I'll pull back the curtain!)(1)

The glory of the kingdom of Heaven is full of shit... Where is the challenge in Paradise?
I refuse it with grace, yet you still want to be blessed?
These messengers of God bear unsmiling faces.
Isn't it ironic?

This doesn't work for me! I'll just get tired, so let me do what I can do here!
If my stomach wants food then let me have rice! If I want something then let me buy it!
All the pleasures in this world reside within this six-tatami space.
I don't want to work! Being a NEET is what's best! Aah... I'm hungry... (2)

Translator's Notes:

The lyric book which accompanied the CD had basic lyrics written in kanji has only been screencapped, and never written out in text. To my knowledge, my transcription is the only one currently out there, and I did my best.

(1) This part was spoken from timestamp 2:19 - 2:30 in the linked video. I struggled to hear this part clearly and in the end had a friend transcribe the kanji for me. "Urami," the word I chose to translate as "Grudge" here, can mean something more akin to resentment or bitterness than honest rage. In addition, "Yuusha" can translate to "Bravery," but here it made more sense to use the less common translation of "Hero" in regards to Emilia.

(2) Literal translation of "おなかがすいた" would be "My stomach is empty," but in Japanese, that's just how one says "I'm hungry." I translated it less literally for the sake of the lyrics.
