Incinerate Anthem (紫炎祭主による磔台(インシネレート・アンセム), Inshinerēto Ansemu), also known as the Chief Mourner’s Crucified Stand of Purple Flame (紫炎祭主による磔台, Shien Saishu ni Yoru Takudai), is a Sacred Gear currently wielded by Lint Sellzen. It is listed as one of the thirteen original Longinus.

Summary[]

Incinerate Anthem is considered as one of the Holy Relics, alongside the True Longinus (Holy Spear), Sephiroth Graal (Holy Grail), Alphecca Tyrant (Holy Nail) and the Shroud of Turin.[1] It is the Holy Cross on which Christ was crucified.

According to Walburga, the Incinerate Anthem is an Independent-Avatar type Sacred Gear with its Balance Breaker taking on the form of whatever object/being it is bound to.[2] Additionally, according to Tobio Ikuse, it doesn't need a host to operate, which is similar to the Regulus Nemea in the present era.[3]

Unlike other Sacred Gears, Incinerate Anthem can be transferred to another user of its own will even if the current user hasn't died yet.[2][4]

In Volume 19, Walburga fought against D×D but ultimately lost and in the aftermath, Issei Hyoudou noticed that a purple flame fell out of Walburga when she was defeated. The purple flame was then placed by Tobio Ikuse in a special lantern, who then explained a unique aspect of the Longinus.[3]

In Volume 22, it is revealed that Lint Sellzen was chosen as the new possessor of the Longinus.[5]

In Volume 24, Lint used her Balance Breaker during the match against Team White Dragon Emperor of the Morning Star, while fighting against Sha Wujing.

In True Volume 2, Lint used Lovely Heavenly Angels during the match against Team Red Dragon Emperor of the Blazing Truth, while fighting against Ouryuu Nakiri, though she was injured because of the Crack ability used on her by Roygun Belphegor, as she was unable to use her Balance Breaker at full strength.

Abilities[]

Incinerate Anthem grants its wielder the ability to create and control powerful purple Holy Fire, which is deadly against creatures of darkness, being almost an instant kill for High-Class Devils and even non-Devils;[6] similar to the True Longinus, it's capable of slaying Ultimate and Satan-Class Devils; Sairaorg Bael, donned in Regulus Nemea's Balance Breaker and covered in Touki could survive it, but was severely wounded from it too.[6]

Depending on the wielder, these purple flames can take different forms, such as Walburga, who'd created cross-shaped attacks, which could be expanded to reach large heights, capable of partially disrupting communication via Demonic Power and inhibiting the sensing abilities of a Senjutsu practitioner.[7] Four years ago, its previous wielder could manifest a cross-bearing giant. And its far recent wielder, Lint Sellzen, often channels it into her Light Sword, to manifest a Holy Fire blade powerful enough to clash with legendary Holy Swords such as Durandal, and Light Gun, shooting out Holy Fire bullets, and she, like Walburga, could manifest cross-shaped attacks.

As a unique feature of the Holy Relics, is able to break through seals,[8] while also being revealed that the Holy Relics can drive believers of the Church insane.[1]

Forms[]

Incinerate Antiphona Calvario[]

Incinerate Antiphona Calvario (最終審判者による覇焔の裁き(インシネレート・アンティフォナ・カルヴァリオ), Inshinerēto Antifona Karuvario), also known as the Blazing Verdict by the Final Judge (最終審判者による覇焔の裁き, Saishū Shinpan-sha ni yoru Haen no Sabaki), is Walburga's Sub-species Balance Breaker. It has the ability to manifest different forms depending on the souls that she uses.[2] The forms are able to move independently from her and act like an independent-avatar type.

When Walburga used half of the soul of the legendary Evil Dragon, Yamata no Orochi, in her fight against D×D, it took the form of a 200-meter long eight-headed Dragon crucified to a cross while appearing to be made entirely of purple Holy Fire. It could breathe out flames and continuously regenerate its heads.[2]

Lovely Heavenly Angels[]

Lovely Heavenly Angels (紫炎なりし愛の覇琉天使(ラブリー・ヘヴンリィ・エンジェルス), Raburī Hevunryi Enjerusu), also known as the Purple Flame and Love Angel (紫炎なりし愛の覇琉天使, Shien nari shi Ai no Haryū Tenshi) is Lint's Sub-Species Balance Breaker, which creates three huge angels (2 males and 1 female) made from purple flames, each of them are able to change their shape and size,[9] making them difficult to handle, more so as all three can create one giant angel. Their flames are potent enough to counter Sha Wujing's water techniques, and something that even Ouryuu could endure despite being most effective against dark creatures.

According to Ouryuu, if Roygun hadn't wounded her using Crack, then her angels would've broken free from his earth prison.

Trivia[]

  • Incinerate Anthem has a consciousness inside of it, which Walburga refers to as the Chief Mourner.[2]
  • Lint stated that the reason for her Balance Breaker's form is due to her wanting to have versions of herself, Siegfried and Freed at her command.[9]
  • It is never clarified if Incinerate Anthem wields "Holy Fire" in a similar manner as Baraqiel, by combining their (Angelic) Light with an element, or if it's status as a Holy Relic means it wields true Holy Power within its flames.
