When the second season came six years after the first, I said it felt like riding a bike.
His true identity is Samael, King of Time and second most powerful person in Gehenna.
Despite Mephisto being a demon, hes on humanitys side.

He also notes that most demons tend to hide their horns and hearts as a matter of etiquette.
This…doesnt work,and indeed only makes things worse for everyone.
Then Koneko pulls him back to reality, something he did for the others.

The spirit possessing the painting is a shape-shifter that projects peoples worst fears.
When Bon suggest taking it down with fatal verses, Konekomaru interrupts him, and takes charge.
Thanks to his poor vision, he didnt look at the painting, so hes not suffering any effects.

He proceeds to bark out frank but accurate assessments about everyone else, one by one.
The group is packed with talent, but need someone to direct and coordinate.
Thats what Koneko does.

When his new friend asks about his tail, Rin comes clean: hes a half-demon.
When Gedouiin asks if hes scared, Rins answer is pretty muchAo no Exorcistsmission statement:Sure Im scared.
But Im lucky, because Im surrounded by some great people!

Seeing that they waited up for him brings a smile to his face.
