Who Is Amaimon in Blue Exorcist?
Amaimon holds the position of the 7th most powerful among the Eight Demon Kings.
He may look like a calm and composed individual, but he places a significant value on his power, displaying a bold and carefree attitude.
Nevertheless, he exhibits intense anger and irritation when someone disrupts his enjoyment, as seen when Mephisto intervenes during his confrontation with Rin in the Chuchi forest.
His playful attitude in battle, where he doesn’t take his opponents seriously, implies that Amaimon is either exceptionally arrogant or extraordinarily skilled in combat.
His host is a teenage boy named Ambrosius Faust who has dark green hair adorned with a lightly colored spike.
Adorned in a jacket featuring crossbones as buttons, he also sports green arm warmers.
Beneath the jacket, he wears a black and pink short-sleeved shirt that matches the color of his hair spike.

Blue Exorcist: The True Form of Amaimon Explained
As the King of Earth, Amaimon holds sway over Demons characterized by plant and/or mineral attributes, as well as those embodying the characteristics of terrestrial animals.
Among the Demons under his command are Goblin, Greenman, Dekalp, and Bariyon, and he possesses the power to command them.
In his Demon form, Amaimon exhibits elongated ears, two horns atop his head, an alligator-like tail, and muscular arms reminiscent of his familiar named Behemoth.
These features, adored in green with red markings, manifest when he reaches full power.
Standing at an average height of 5’8”, he presents a decent figure.
Meanwhile, fans also speculate that Amaimon's true form might have breasts because of his connection with Earth.
However, following his defeat by Rin in the anime, Amaimon transforms, taking on the appearance of a light-green hamster with a white underbelly.
When Amaimon unearths his demonic heart, the wellspring of all his infernal abilities, he taps into his true power.
In this state, his strength becomes extremely formidable and a mere punch can generate a shockwave powerful enough to propel a person through the side of a massive mountain.
