Which grows from Adam Kadamon's eye.}} Yuck. That the fruits look like baby heads doesn't make it any better. ) - nope, he also considers all of his angels failed experiments and wants to end the world. {{spoiler|Oh, and he's a computer program.}} Neat one, Kaori Yuki - neat one.

* Deus ex Machina from ''[[Mirai Nikki]]''. The story happens because Deus {{spoiler|is dying and needs to choose a successor to become the new god.}} Interestingly, there appear to be a couple of limits on his powers: {{spoiler|it has been conclusively stated that he cannot resurrect the dead, as apparently he is unable to bring back the souls of the deceased.
