It is also shown that Makima's body is extremely durable as when she was wounded, she seemingly doesn't feel a thing. Just so we're clear I'm a public safety devil hunter, I came to kill the zombie devil that was here. As it was revealed that Makima had groomed him into her perfect pawn and after his companions were murdered by Makima, it was revealed that she is nothing more than an abusive person towards Denji, even mentally abusing him by gaslighting him for the past sins he had done which resulted in him living in a miserable life while also confessing towards Denji that she is a type of a person who will make someone having a happy life at first, only to destroy it at a later time.

At one point, she also reported the incident regarding Samurai Sword and Akane Sawatari and the members of the Yakuza that were involved in the incident. She can also be compared to Reze, due to them both being seductive Femme Fatales that try to manipulate the protagonist to get what they want and both have a similarly tragic backstory as they were used by their respective governments with Reze being used by the Soviet Union government and Makima being used by the Japanese government.She was able to spy on Denji and Reze's conversation and was listening in on Kishibe's conversation with Quanxi. However, at the same time, it was revealed that Makima is nothing but a tragic figure herself who still wants to create a utopian world in her own way by creating a world where she can be equal to others and also yearning for a familial relationship that she never has despite building the relationship through fear and trying to create said world with the wrong methods. However, in the end, it was also revealed that Aki is also one of the victims of Makima's brainwashing as when the Angel Devil asked about why he loved Makima so much, it is stated that he didn't even remember a single thing. As Denji prepares to fight against Makima and her personal army in a cemetery, Denji's resolve on killing Makima becomes clear after he asks her about the existence of bad movies in her own ideal world, alluding to their date that they had in the movie theater as they watch movies together, in which she responded by saying that she has no hesitations to purge any bad movies from existence. However, due to the contract that Prime Minister had made, if Makima was attacked, the Japanese civilians will be inflicted by illness or have their death dismissed as nothing but accidents.

She is later revealed to be the Control Devil ( 支 ( し ) 配 ( はい ) の 悪 ( あく ) 魔 ( ま ) , Shihai no Akuma ? Authority: Being one of the highest members of the Devil Hunter Organization, Makima is able to assert her own authority towards the other Devil Hunter either through charisma or fear befitting her title as the Control Devil due to her brainwashing powers and manipulation.

It’s not uncommon for some Nikke characters to be wearing a long coat or a piece of clothing that hides certain parts of their body – but Chainsaw Man fans didn’t want this to apply to Makima. The word "Human" itself can be applied on Makima's appearance being the most human of all the devils and being the most sketchy and inhuman of all the characters as her behavior contradicts itself of what it means to be a human because even the devils and other humans were terrified of her while the word "Shepherd" befits her title as the Control Devil who will control other people or devils for her own ends. Even if Makima reveals her goal towards Kishibe that her goal is to make the world a better place for humanity by eradicating all of the devils (including herself if she lost), Kishibe still acts suspicious towards Makima, claiming that she tried to use the Chainsaw Man's powers to distort the world even further. Big Brother's traits literally fit Makima's true nature as she is revealed to be the Control Devil representing the humanity's fear of being controlled by other governments as Makima would bring the worst kind of peace in the end, an almost-Orwellian dystopia.
