   Keys: Nahobino

   Nahobino is a unique race in Shin Megami Tensei V. They are demons who have regained their Knowledge of good and evil, and through that, their true godlike power. The first and foremost of the unified demons is the protagonist of the game, specifically in the form where the human protagonist and Aogami's bodies have fused together.

   "Nahobino" can refer to any demon who has regained their Knowledge, and the protagonist is specially known as "the Nahobino." In Japanese, these two concepts are distinct, the term Nahobino is exclusive to humans fused with powerful demons, while other unified demons are called "Gouitsujin".

   In the past, the world would be filled with countless Nahobino, who'd all essentially be gods, but would constantly fight for the Throne of Creation, falling in battle for it. Eventually, the God of Law would prevent them from approaching the throne by stealing their Knowledge, reducing them to demons, and secreting away their Fruit of Knowledge in his own paradise. However, a serpent, believed to be Lucifer, would tempt other mortals to eat the Fruit of Knowledge, but on the pretense of reviving the war of the myriad gods. In a fit of rage, the Creator would banish these humans from his paradise.

   Since the humans now have the Knowledge of demons infused in them, demons have the opportunity to become Nahobino again by fusing with them. However, simply being Nahobino is an act that violates the God's order. But his death by the hands of Lucifer now allows the Nahobino to exist. From one point of view, the Nahobino's existence is proof that God really is completely dead.

   Certain powers of the Nahobino is their ability to see certain things that cannot be seen with the human eye, such as Magatsuhi Crystals and the World of Shadows, although the protagonist needs to focus to his powers accordingly to be able to see them.

   As the Nahobino is a forbidden being according to the Creator, many of Bethel's members question the existence of Nahobino and particularly devoted followers like Abdiel and Camael try to kill them on the spot. Nonetheless, the majority of angels support the protagonist despite being a Nahobino due to their invaluable aid against the forces of chaos. Similarly, the forces of chaos respect the protagonist for their strength and proof that God no longer exists, yet express disappointment in the protagonist when they support Bethel.

   Keys: Bethel

   Bethel is a special worldwide organization that fights against demons that appear in the real world. Bethel has various branches, one of them located in Japan. That branch is headed by Hayao Koshimizu, the country's Prime Minister.

   Additionally, Bethel has four known branches ran by the top deity of their respective pantheons; an Egyptian Branch ran by Khonsu, a Nordic Branch ran by Odin, a Greek Branch ran by Zeus and an Indian Branch ran by Shiva. Unlike the Japanese Branch, these branches were completely staffed by demons of their pantheons.

   It was also expained that the Japanese branch was understaffed because most of their Amatsukami deities were defeated in Armageddon, with Tsukuyomi being the last few standing.

   In the regular world, where the public is oblivious to the truth, various murder incidents caused by mysterious figures would begin to bloom within Tokyo, leaving the city in a state of alert and unease. A global force by the name of Bethel, aware of the truth, who has also participated in the war, worked in secrecy to protect their world against these demons, taking the side of the angels. The Japan branch in particular has lost most of its fighting force in Armageddon.

   Keys: Da'at, Netherworld, the Expanse

   Da'at is a parallel world to the regular Tokyo. The world is also known as the Netherworld, but has been named "Da'at" by demons. Although the name differs in the English localization, the Netherworld refers to the Expanse. Da'at appears as a parallel Tokyo, albeit abandoned and buffeted by massive sand dunes that bury a great deal of open space and the silence of destroyed civilization.

   Although the real world and Da'at are usually kept separate, demons are able to leak in the real world and attack humans.

   The location is also home to the Tree of Knowledge.

   Keys: Armageddon

   After a war between angels and demons, titled Armageddon, spanning 18 years before the events of the game, humanity would be wiped out from the face of the earth in the matter of moments. Additionally, Lucifer would declare that he has slain their God, leaving the victory to the side of chaos, with Lucifer using the God's Knowledge to transcend to a higher plane of existence. However, the God's Shekinah Glory has reshaped the world back into its original form as if nothing happened, but that reality is only an illusion, and the desolated Tokyo is still active behind the scenes.

   In the regular world, where the public is oblivious to the truth, various murder incidents caused by mysterious figures would begin to bloom within Tokyo, leaving the city in a state of alert and unease. A global force by the name of Bethel, aware of the truth, who has also participated in the war, worked in secrecy to protect their world against these demons, taking the side of the angels.

    Keys: Jouin, Jouin High School

    Jouin High School is a dormitory-based high school the protagonist attends, located in Shinagawa.

    Jouin High School's emblem resembles a gecko overlaid on top of a pentagram, surrounded by a Japanese shimenawa.[1] The entire logo is colored gold. Students have an option between more classic (navy blue gakurans and seifuku) or modern (navy blue blazers, white shirts with blue accents, and gray plaid slacks or skirts) style uniforms, while the school gym uniform is a pale aqua in color. No matter the style, all the uniforms have a white satsuki azaleas motif on them.

    Keys: Magatsuhi

    Magatsuhi is a very important substance for demons. While not visual to humans outside of Da'at or the Expanse, it is visualized as flowing red strands of energy, or a shining red liquid if allowed to pool. It affects the summoning, strength, and sustenance of demons, serving as a power medium. A large amount of Magatsuhi may also induce emotional and physical highs or erratic behavior, similar to high doses of illicit substances. It also has a minor pain numbing effect, making it essential to more violent demons.

    It is born from the flow of strong emotions and humans have an abundance of it, especially when they are in a panicked or fearful state. Magatsuhi can also settle within the earth and reemerge as crystals.
