Cast from Stamina: The magic of demons and the miracles of the exorcists seem to be cast from a supply of stamina. Should this supply run out, the demons and exorcists won't be able to use their most taxing special powers. This is what causes the fight between Father and Mammon to enter a Combat Breakdown, as both of them had used up too much of their energy to do anything but fight each other with their bare hands. Aborted Arc: Invoked. Satan declares that Imuri is a target of his, forcing Father to act as her bodyguard. But as the story goes on, Satan never makes good on his threat, which makes Leah and Barbara suspicious that they're somehow playing into Satan's hands. This is what keeps them on guard around Imuri and they tell the Vatican to be wary of her. Religion is Magic: The miracles of the Church's exorcists are replications of miracles and feats of saints and God as detailed in the Old Testament and New Testament. For instance, Barbara invokes Saint Lucia, patron saint of the blind, when destroying photographic evidence and temporarily rendering Leviathan blind. Father's power lets him recreate events as immense as the parting of the Red Sea and the plagues that God brought down upon Egypt. Armor-Piercing Question: When Dante realizes that Father has been abused into a Death Seeker with Blind Obedience to the Church, he forces Father to recognize this by asking, "Looking to martyr yourself so soon? Is living that painful for you?" Father initially shouts at Dante to shut up, but he's soon bawling in Dante's arms, admitting that it hurts and he can't go on living like this.

Referred to as Shonen Jump+ in Japan and MANGA Plus internationally, these online-only apps include series whose content is either too explicit for Shonen Jump's normal demographic of teenage boys, or series targeted more towards teenage girls and young adult women, a genre called shojo. Some MANGA Plus series that receive a great deal of critical acclaim will also appear simultaneously on the official Shonen Jump app, like Kaiju No. 8, Spy x Family, or Dandadan, even though its content is inappropriate for younger audiences. Leah suffers intense Survivor Guilt for an incident from her childhood where she unknowingly invited Beelzebub into her village, allowing him to slaughter everyone inside including her parents. Even worse, she's Forced to Watch and then compelled to devour the remains of her little brother. The incident scars her for life, leaving her unable to stomach meat and making her single-mindedly devoted to taking revenge on Beelzebub. Defusing The Tykebomb: After Father pulls out his eye in penance for succumbing to Asmodeus's powers over lust, Dante realizes just how abused and mentally damaged Father is. Dante then forces Father to realize this with an Armor-Piercing Question exposing just how miserable Father is before advising him to find someone he loves so Father can love the world that God created. While this does not remove all of Father's emotional baggage, Dante's intervention ends Father's martyr complex and restores his ability to love and show compassion. Church Militant: The Roman Catholic Church (and seemingly all other denominations of Chrisianity) are a global military organization that maintains The Masquerade while fighting off the demons of Gehenna whenever they appear. Father is the most powerful exorcist alive and the ultimate weapon of the Roman Catholic Church. He and other exorcists like Leah are also trained in military and rescue operations, such as when they head out to save the passengers of a cruise ship that was sunk by Leviathan.To make things even more tense and cringeworthy, the reader finds out that the famous singer Aria is possessed by Asmodeus, the demon lord responsible for Father's trauma. She intends to seduce him by threatening Aria's life, all the while Father has no idea that the girl he promised to protect from Asmodeus is the demon in question.

Entertainingly Wrong: When Father first meets Leviathan, she constantly calls herself "Mama" and says that she'll have Father's child as thanks for helping her. This triggers Father's Trauma Button as he comes to the misunderstanding that Leviathan is a girl abused by her pedophile father. Meanwhile, Imuri is internally screaming about this exchange as the "Father" Leviathan is referring to is none other than God. Psychosexual Horror: Asmodeus, Demon Lord of Lust, is introduced using her powers as The Pornomancer to brainwash dozens of women into trying to rape Father, a twelve-year-old child at the time, with no regard for his actual consent. While Father manages to compose himself by tearing out his own eye in penance, the event leaves him with a Paralyzing Fear of Sexuality.Make the Exorcist Fall in Love 38 #38 - Make the Exorcist Fall in Love 38 05-02-2023 #38 - Make the Exorcist Fall in Love 38 Half-Human Hybrid: The nephilim are the giant, monstrous offspring of humans and the fallen angels that make up the ranks of the legions of Gehenna. They have heads covered in eyes and are slow-witted and child-like in their intelligence. Seeing one serves as a harsh reminder of what would happen if Imuri seriously pursued her feelings for Father. Walk on Water: One of the miracles that the members of the Church are capable of is replicating Jesus's ability to walk on water. Father uses this while rescuing the passengers of a sunken cruise ship.
