Fami (キガちゃん, Kiga-chan?) is a minor antagonist in the Academy Saga. She is the Famine Devil (飢き餓がの悪あく魔ま, Kiga no Akuma?) who embodies the concept of famine and starvation and is a member of the Four Horsemen. She is initially thought to have been the Death Devil when confronted by the Fake Chainsaw Man, but it is revealed that the real Death Devil had been using her name all along as an alias to keep her identity a secret.

After failing to stop her eldest sister from enacting her plans, Fami is brainwashed into serving her and is commanded to plunge humanity into an abyss of terror alongside the Fake Chainsaw Man.

Appearance:

Fami takes on the appearance of a young woman with long unkempt blonde hair that falls in uneven layers and strands. Some of her strands stick out, with bangs across her forehead and sides that reach her ears, and a pair of longer bangs that loosely reach her collarbones. Like the rest of her sisters, the Famine Devil possesses green multiple-ringed eyes and wears the standard Fourth East High School uniform, similar to other Horsemen Devils attending the high school. In most of her appearances, she wears a nervous expression on her face and is usually shown crying.

Personality:

Fami has a meek and taciturn demeanor and is very outwardly emotional, in stark contrast with her sisters. She was nervous when introducing herself to students of Fourth East High School, crying throughout her entire introduction and openly bawling when she saw that nobody was paying attention to her. At the same time, she appears to have somewhat of a high opinion of herself, refusing to take out the trash because it would be a waste of her superior talents. Despite this, when she's chastised by a student for her behavior and told to go "crush ants", she actually goes outside to do so. When she's easily dispatched by the Fake Chainsaw Man, she immediately resorts to begging for her life by offering him a meager ¥2,000 from her wallet, demonstrating an overt cowardice that her sisters lack.

Fami appears to pity humanity and arrives claiming to save them with her special powers. Her notion of salvation seems to be releasing humans from their suffering through death, as she believes her means of doing so will ease any pain that War or Death could cause. Although she does not display the same bravado as Devils like Makima and Yoru and can be argued to be benevolent, Fami is still deeply fatalistic, as seen in her way of "saving" humanity: in order to mend her injuries, she spares no thought to an innocent student who wanted to help her and immediately steals his life force. Despite this, her pleading for Death to kill herself does display that she, in her own warped sense, ultimately sides with humanity over Devils.

Fami appears to have a high degree of confidence in her combat skills, and, contrary to her usual personality, is relatively calm and collected in an encounter against a formidable foe. She utilizes basic hand-to-hand combat in attempts to battle the physically imposing Fake Chainsaw Man, analyzes his fighting style, and boldly claims to be capable of defeating him in mere seconds despite being rapidly dismembered by him a moment prior. It can be inferred from her genuine shock at being bested that she may have been a much more powerful fighter at a previous point but had been dramatically weakened to the state she was in at the time of her appearance. In addition, she does seem to be able to stand up against her sisters as she's able to fire back rebuttals against Yoru when she calls her a weakling.

Abilities:

The Famine Devil holds all the standard Devil abilities, such as regeneration, forming contracts, etc.

Devil Powers:

Life Absorption: The Famine Devil has the ability to absorb the life of those she comes into physical contact with, draining them and reducing them to withered corpses. This ability can be used on Devils, humans and animals.

Immense Healing Factor: The Famine Devil can use the absorbed energy to heal herself from even mortal wounds, as shown when she drained one of the Festival Committee's students to revive herself when she clashed with the Fake Chainsaw Man. It appears the life she absorbs doesn't need to be proportionate to the damage she receives to heal herself, as seen when, after absorbing the life of a few ants, she was able to recover from fatal injuries.

Immense Durability: Unlike many other Devils, the Famine Devil is able to live past mortal injuries, such as getting her body cut to pieces, and can still talk while her head is detached from her body.

Skillset:

Hand-to-Hand Combat: Fami possesses some level of martial arts prowess and knowledge, though the extent of which is questionable. Although her attacks dealt little damage to the Fake Chainsaw Man, she was nonetheless shown to be somewhat athletic in combat. Accurate or not, she also analyzes multiple supposed weaknesses in Fake Chainsaw Man's attacks and fighting style with just a few sparse demonstrations of his abilities. However, she was easily bested by him all the same in their brief clashes despite insisting it would only take three seconds to eliminate him.
