The appearance of the hero
Damon Spade at first sight captivates with its beauty and smiling appearance. When it first appears on the screens, it is difficult to think that this First Guardian Giotto will later turn out to be the main antagonist due to a change in beliefs. Spade is always dressed in his military uniform, which is very similar to the French officer’s tunic from the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th. He sometimes wears her buttoned up and vice versa. The epaulette, which indicates the title, is not always with him, but sometimes the character fastens it on clothes. White trousers and brown boots complete the picture. Blue hair resembles a pineapple shape, because it is long and fall on the cheeks of the hero. On the face they are cut in the form of two zigzags. Look at Damon good-natured and sincere. It may seem so at first glance, but what exactly is on his mind, no one can say for sure. Behind the mask of courtesy hides his true intentions, desires and principles. This character managed to attract the attention of many viewers to his person.
Lover's loss
The main storyline does not show the relationship of Damon Spade and Elena - his only lover. The man loved her very much, but she died dozens of years before the narration in the anime began. He always mentions her with great warmth and utmost tenderness. According to the hero himself, it was Elena who aroused in him the kindest and most sincere feelings. For the sake of this girl, the illusionist joined the Wongol family, where he tried in every possible way to help those people who need it. Elena responded to the feelings of Damon Spade, because inside her love also burned. Even before he joined the mafia family. She asked before death to make sure that it was he who headed the Wongola clan. Elena believed that under the leadership of a hero, all the poor would feel safe. Spade made this request after death the goal of his whole future life. He devoted himself entirely to this occupation, which was demonstrated many times during the central storyline.
First consequences
Since Giotto ruled the Wongola clan, Damon Spade in the anime obeyed him for a long time. At first, he considered him an ideal leader and a person who is capable of leading people. This was before the loss of Elena and the desire to make the family strong, to lead him to the ideal. When Damon began to grieve over the loss, then behind his back, Giotto removed all those who, in his opinion, prevented him from being elevated above the other clans of the Wongol group. He was very disappointed with Giotto's position about the future family. He had no ambitions, and by nature was a gentle person. Seeing this every day, Spade became furious, which led to the betrayal of Primo Giotto in the future. Moreover, he declared no confidence in the custodians because of their unwillingness to change anything. Spade considered them too soft-bodied, even though deep in his soul he valued friendship with each of them. In some episodes, his internal doubts are visible. He will never admit this to himself, as this may interfere with the mission to strengthen the clan.
Sawada family
In the anime "Reborn", Damon Spade has repeatedly demonstrated his attitude to the Savad family led by Tsuna. He considers them all as soft-skinned as Giotto. The illusionist always scoffed at the principles of the leader of this clan, who always put friendship and support of loved ones above himself. Tsuna subsequently inherited the will of Giotto himself and remained the last of Primo. Damon from the entire Savada family respected only Mukuro. Tsuna accepted the legacy of Giotto, which is why the Wongola clan returned to its main principle of protecting people. For Spade, this was another disappointment, and therefore he set a clear goal - the elimination of Tsuna. He believed that the destruction of the leader Masara would help to forget about the legacy of Giotto, which he considered wrong. Tsuna, in fact, turned out to be a wise leader who managed to see the true cause of Spade's anger. In the arch, where Damon is the main antagonist, a conversation occurred between them, during which the illusionist abandoned his goals.
Use of people
Damon Spade and Alaudi rarely crossed, but the man often flirted with Chrome. He did not always show himself as a tough fighter for the primacy of the Wongol clan. Sometimes Spade disguised himself as a kind and smiling guy. It was then that he spent a lot of time with the girl. After discovering his true plans, Damon said that Chrome Dokuro should be his only. The girl continued to resist, but with the power of illusions, he subdued her mind. Chrome was in his hands only a tool with which you can achieve your goals. Spade used the hostage to blackmail Tsuna and did not care about the integrity of the girl’s mind. His true plan was to lure Mukuro by removing the spell of the illusory organs on the body of Chrome. When the girl got freedom, she was very disappointed in Spade and even felt hatred. Only after telling a holistic story from Damon himself did the heroine manage to understand, forgive, and even regret death.
Other relationship
On some artworks, Damon Spade may look like a completely positive character, but in fact he was eaten by anger and a desire to exalt the Wongol clan. He used many people in every way, but he had a different attitude towards Mukuro. Only this guy Spade considered worthy of accepting his personal will. He wanted to transfer power to him, and at the right moment to capture his body for himself. Mukuro, however, does not reciprocate in this endeavor, the guy is kind in heart, and the misconduct with the capture of Chrome was a blow to him. He stated that Spade personifies the worst human traits. Damon also manipulated Enma, and he considered the whole Shimon family to be just expendables, nothing more than tools for himself. Despite its two-faced nature, the drama of this hero attracted the attention of the audience. Fans liked the image in which motivation does not scatter actions.
