Seven Great Demon Lords

The Seven Great Demon Lords (七大魔王) is a fictional group from the Digimon media franchise. This group includes seven powerful Digimon who share the "Demon Lord" type and each represent one of the seven deadly sins. This group is also known as the "Mao" in Digimon World Data Squad, which simply means "Demon Lords" in Japanese, though pronounced as one syllable instead of two.

While the Digimon which make it up are antagonists throughout the series, they rarely appear together or actually as part of the group. However, they are mentioned in Digimon Savers and the Digimon card games, and the entire group are primary antagonists in Digimon World Data Squad and Digimon World DS. So far, Leviamon and Lilithmon are the only two Demon Lords which have appeared in neither the anime or the manga.

Barbamon
Barbamon is a Demon Lord Digimon whose name and design are derived from the Hebrew word for the demon Barbatos.

Barbamon is the Demon Lord of Greed, and takes the form of an old wizard carrying a long rod which can be used to cast magic. He is the most deceitful of the group, and uses his cunning as a master strategist in the Demon Lords' plot to conquer the Digital World. He dwells within the deepest parts of the Dark Area, and is able to manipulate Fallen Angel and Demon Lord Digimon. His goal is to extract all the riches that exist in the Digital World.

Digimon Next
Barbamon is the Demon Lord who has taken over the Host Computer Yggdrasil in the System World, where he now makes his base. He aims to take over the Digital World by obtaining all the Digimemories for the future of Digimon, NEO, already having the Dark Digimemory. For that purpose, he created the Commandments and recruited Shou Kahara and Peckmon, who have the Bird Digimemory.

As a member of the Seven Great Demon Lords, he forced himself into System World and confronted Yggdrasil on the policies of "Art" Digimon, Digimon born with Tamers. Upon deciding that revolution was in order, Barbamon merged with Yggdrasil and became the host computer itself. He fought Tsurugi Tatsuno but is killed when VictoryGreymon destroys him. His last act is to give his gathered Digimemories to NEO, giving him consciousness.

Barbamon appears one last time when the other Digimemory holders restrain NEO; his Dark Digimemory imprinted with his consciousness gives NEO the ability to attack Tsurugi and Yuu Inui, only to have his own Commandments turn on him.

Belphemon Rage Mode
Belphemon is a Demon Lord Digimon whose name and design are derived from the demon Belphegor.

Belphemon is the Demon Lord of Sloth, and is usually sealed within his teddy-bear-like "Sleep Mode". Every 1000 years, he awakens into his "Rage Mode", in which his features are more animalistic and predatory, and he takes the form of a giant, multi-winged monster. The chains that bound him in Sleep Mode are wrapped around his arms, and an energy aura surrounds parts of his body.

Digimon Data Squad
In events before the series began, Akihiro Kurata discovered a temple, inside he found a door bearing the crest of courage, upon entering he found a chest containing a Digi-Egg that would later hatch and digivolve into Belphemon Sleep Mode. Kurata then began a campaign to revive Belphemon by collecting "Digimon life energy", and thereby conquer both the human world and the Digital World - a task he succeeded at by destroying and collecting the life energy of the massive ElDradimon.

Believing he had successfully brought Thomas H. Norstein to his cause, Kurata used the "Digimon control device" Thomas had made for him to command Belphemon. But then, during Belphemon's attack, Thomas betrayed Kurata, and destroyed the control device, forcing Kurata to make another gambit. He seemingly transformed himself into data, and merged with Belphemon, taking control over the Digimon's body and transforming it into Belphemon Rage Mode.

Soon after, Thomas came to join the fight, with Marcus Damon on his way as well. MirageGaogamon faced off against Belphemon only to be stomped on. He would've been finished if Rosemon hadn't seized Belphemon's arm. He blocked the attacks shot by Rosemon and defeated Crowmon, who reverted back to Falcomon. Through Keenan Crier's rage, Falcomon Double Warp Digivolved to Ravemon and attacked Belphemon but was unable to do anything more than anger him. Belphemon launched an attack at Marcus and Thomas which was blocked by Ravemon. Soon, Kurata lost control of Belphemon, whose only goal is simply destruction. Marcus' Digi-Egg hatched and digivolved from Koromon to Agumon.

Once Agumon Digivolved into ShineGreymon, Kurata's face emerged from Belphemon's chest and started to drain electricity from the city to cause Belphemon Rage Mode to grow and swallow a number of space oscillation devices to give the Digimon the power to tear rifts between both worlds, threatening to bring both worlds crashing together. He defeated RookChessmon and BishopChessmon, who reverted back to the two PawnChessmon. ShineGreymon digivolved into Burst Mode and destroyed Belphemon Rage Mode, with help from Marcus' D.N.A. going straight through Belphemon Rage Mode's chest, where Kurata's face was.

Despite the fact that, normally, Belphemon's Sleep Mode is not considered a member, the voice over for Belphemon Sleep Mode includes it as one.
