Devil Survivor

デビルサバイバー

In the story, the Communication Player (COMP) is a handheld device that enables email and internet access. Kazuya Minegishi and his friends each receive a COMP from their mysterious hacker cousin, Naoya, who insists it will be vital for their survival. Initially doubtful, the group disregards Naoya's warning until they open a strange "Laplace Email." The email foretells a brutal murder, a devastating explosion, and a blackout that cuts off Tokyo from the rest of the world. Their disbelief turns into horror as these events begin to unfold. As they grasp the situation, Kazuya and his friends discover that Naoya has secretly installed a demon-summoning app on their COMPs. Powerful demons emerge and attack them, but after defeating these entities, the demons form contracts with them, becoming loyal allies. With the newfound ability to summon demons and foresee the future via emails, the trio fights to survive in this new world overrun by demons. They also set out to uncover the mystery behind the summoning program and the consequences of changing their destinies.
