STORY

Disgaea 5 takes place in a universe with many Netherworlds, each of which is ruled by an Overlord who has a unique Overload ability, which can also be used in battle as a special attack. Before the story’s events, Tyrant Overlord Killidia was a bloodthirsty demon who grew up in and became the Overlord of the ruthless Netherworld Cryo Blood. One day, he fought Goldion, a martial arts master who created the Ultimate Demon Technique fighting style. After Goldion defeated Killidia, he decided to make him his pupil, changing his name to Killia. Killia then falls in love with Goldion’s daughter Liezerota, slowly becoming a kinder person as a result.

Lieze’s brother Void, who has the power to steal Overloads, became jealous of Killian’s family bonds and believed he should be the heir to the Ultimate Demon Technique. However, he did not realize that Goldion selected Killia because Void’s impure heart would prevent him from learning the Final Skill. Unable to master the Final Skill due to the inner conflict with his current and former self, Killia fled Goldion, but Lieze followed him. In an ensuing battle between Killia and Void, Lieze was presumed killed protecting Killia, though she was just put in stasis with Void’s power.

Void stole Killia’s Overload and changed his name to Void Dark, forming an army – the Lost – to find a means of reviving Lieze. Killia, now having lost his full powers, joins up with the Overlord Seraphina to fight the Lost. Using Seraphina’s base, they ally with several other Overlords to form the Rebel Army and rescue numerous Netherworlds from The Lost. In the process, they encounter Void Dark’s second-in-command, Demon General Bloodis. They later realize that Bloodis is Goldion, but brainwashed.  Killia and Zeroken attempt to use the Final Skill to purge the evil from Bloodis, and unknowingly succeed, but Goldion keeps this a secret to protect them from Void Dark.

Void Dark sends magical spears to many Netherworlds to absorb their energy, and the rebel army destroys them one by one. While doing so, the members of the group come across their respective homeworlds and overcome the obstacles in their hearts to gain or enhance their overloads. Killia overcomes his fear of becoming his past self and accepts it in full, becoming able to use the Final Skill on his own. The rebel army finally attacks Void Dark’s base. There, Goldion sacrifices his life in battle to teach Killia the technique’s secret Ultimate Skill, revealing the truth.

The group finally encounters Void, who is defeated with said skill, but not before reviving Lieze. She goes berserk due to the uncontrolled amount of dark power inside her, but Killia saves her by combining the Ultimate Skill with the Overloads of his friends. With The Lost defeated, the Netherworlds begin rebuilding and the group disperses. Killia and Lieze live peacefully on the fringes of the Netherworlds, and after the game’s credits, the Rebel Army meets again to deal with new threats, with Lieze joining them.
