Due to family circumstances, Setsuna Kai is moving to a new city where he's supposed to live by himself in an apartment. As soon as Setsuna arrives, he witnesses a mysterious rain of rocks and barely escapes being crushed by an enormous boulder. Setsuna's new home wasn't as lucky, being completely destroyed by another giant boulder. Setsuna is distraught, not knowing what to do when he's approached by a scientist named Hiromi Kaname. Dr. Kaname's equipment apparently can tell that Setsuna is a "Devil Child", and so Dr. Kaname decides to take Setsuna to his laboratory.

Where it came from
Produced by Studio Actas and released in 2000, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Children was conceived as a multi-media initiative to broaden the appeal of the mature Shin Megami Tensei franchise to a younger demographic. By adapting the core mechanics of demon negotiation and recruitment into a more approachable, monster-collecting framework, the series sought to compete in the crowded television landscape of early 2000s pocket-monster games and animations.
The character design and visual direction were crafted to pivot away from the gritty, apocalyptic aesthetic typical of the main series, opting instead for a vibrant, character-driven style. While it successfully introduced the brand to a new generation of viewers, the series was received primarily as a gateway product, noted by critics for its intentional departure from the darker, philosophical undertones that had previously defined the publisher’s output.
