An angel (天使, Tenshi?) is a servant sent from the celestial realm by God to retrieve the souls of humans who have passed away. Angels are able to grant humans with "freedom" and "love", respectively in the form of Wings, which enable one to fly anywhere in the world without being seen, and the Red Arrows, which enable one to control a person's heart by shooting them with it. It has been stated by Nasse that different types of angels give different abilities.
Ranking System[]
There are four known levels of angels, which from highest to lowest are: special-rank, first-rank, second-rank, and unranked (also called "rankless"). Angels can be promoted to a level above them, or demoted to a level below.
The 13 angels who select God candidates must be at least second-rank. If one of the thirteen angels is demoted to unranked, their God candidate dies. Of the 13 angels, three are special-rank, seven are first-rank, and three are second-rank. Revel was a second-rank angel at the beginning of the series but was later promoted to first-rank.
The higher the level of the angel the more abilities they are able to give their God candidate. Special-rank angels have the ability to give their God candidates Wings, Red Arrows, and White Arrows; first-rank angels may give their God candidates Wings and Red Arrows; and second-rank angels may only give their God candidates either a pair of Wings or Red Arrows.
