The Archangels (大天使 Daitenshi, 4Kids: "Arch-Spirits") are the strongest of all the angels.[1] Pieces of them were used to create the Guardian Ghosts of the X-Laws. As a type of tsukumogami, these mechanical angels were created from various vehicles that had gained spirits,[2] as such they are also known as the Mobile Angels (機動天使 Kidō Tenshi).[3]
About[]
The Archangels possess the ability to shatter other spirits with their attacks.[4]
The X-Laws' Archangels were created by having a priest call upon the spirits of the real angels and then through a hard process, fusing them with the spirits of the cars, thus giving birth to mechanical nature spirits (機械精霊 kikai seirei).[5] In truth, it was Luchist Lasso who once ventured into the Big Heaven (the second highest commune within the Great Spirit), took pieces of the real Archangels, and brought them to this world to create the artificial angels.[3] While not real angels, their reiryoku are almost at Kami Class.[5]
The true forms of these Archangels are their car forms.[2] Using the Over Souls, the Archangels' car forms can be driven by their shamans.[6] If the shamans' minds focus more on the devices than their religious pieties as angels when summoning the spirits, the colorations of the mechanical archangels may alter.[7]
