The nekoshou, in this deries as far as I know, are a rare and almost extinct species of nekomata even before the series. Yes Kuroka while a nekoshou is still considered a devil (yes she still has both of her [Bishop] Evil pieces with her). Not all the stray devils transform into monsters like that of Vol.1.

Thats all I can think of right now, I'll try look further into it, unless someone else clarifies it
