| Gash is strong |
Name: Gash Bell (known as Zatch Bell in the dub)
Origin: Gash Bell
Gender: Male
Classification: Demon (Mamodo), King of the Demon World
Age: 6-7
Powers and Abilities: Super strength, speed, durability, agility, endurance, lightning manipulation (Gash has a wide array of lightning oriented spells, suited for all ranges and situations concerning battle), Kiyomaro Gash's bookkeeper (a genius teenager) controls what spells Gash uses with Gash's Spell Book (the book reacts to feelings in order to unleash the power of the Demon Child), the ability to amp his basic combat skills with the spell Rauzaruku for a period of 30 seconds, manipulation over his mantle which can be used to defend attacks, grab objects and lift him up to higher ground, in a "one-off" scenario in his battle against Clear Note Gash's Spell Book temporarily turned golden, this allowed him to use all the Shin level spells of every Demon Child seen in the manga (some spells granted to him were the ability to create illusions as large as planets, an increase in the overall power of his original spells, Baou Zakeruga in particular, having grown to a size that dwarfed even the moon, the ability to fight in space having coated himself with a special aura, stat enhancement and many other abilities. Being a one-off scenario however the book returned to its normal color and power after having defeated Clear Note and was stated to have only turned golden because Gash desperately needed to protect the planet)
Weaknesses: Is returned to the Demon World if his book is burned, temporarily loses consciousness when performing some spells (not so long that it can be seen as a serious disadvantage though), can't use the power of the Golden Book willingly, Heart Energy is needed for spells to be casted
Destructive Capacity: Small building level+ | Large building level | City block level+ | At least island level+ up to small continent level+ with the Red Book (Baou was able to consume Faudo who was over 10,000 meters tall), likely planet level+ with the Golden Book
Range: Several hundred meters with his strongest strongest spells, average human melee range otherwise
Speed: Superhuman+ | Supersonic+ | At least supersonic+ | Massively hypersonic with the Red Book, massively hypersonic+ with the Golden Book (flew out of the Earth's atmosphere)
Durability: Small building level+ | Large building level+ | City block level | Likely small continent level+ with the Red Book (tanked Clear's Teoradisu), at least small continent level+ with the Golden Book
Lifting Strength: Class K (is able to easily lift large rocks and metal objects, was able to push a large rock structure in his training regime organized by Dufaux)
Striking Strength: At least Class MJ+, higher with Rauzaruku
Stamina: Large, is able to battle despite having life threatening injuries at a level that can still pose a threat to an opponent
Standard Equipment: Nothing notable
Intelligence: Can be considered an idiot when it comes to things like booksmarts, nonetheless is a skilled combatant
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- Zakeru: Gash shoots a powerful lightning from his mouth. This is his most basic attack spell, and was his most used spell until he developed further his abilities.
- Rashirudo: Creates a giant wall that protects Gash and Kiyomaro. It can reflect attacks back at the enemy, with some lightning added to it; if Kiyomaro reads the spell again, should it already be in effect, the existing shield doubles in size.
- Jikerudo: Creates a slow moving sphere that magnetizes the opponent to any metallic object(s). It's not frequently used because it requires metallic objects to be nearby, but when this condition is fulfilled, this spell provides Gash and Kiyomaru a considerable advantage.
- Baou Zakeruga: One of Gash's strongest attacks, consists of a huge dragon made of lightning that engulfs a target with its enormous jaws. Further along in the series, this spell increases in strength in conjunction with the Zagurzemu spell, as well as changing in appearance. The true power of the spell is revealed during the battle in Faudo tower. It is here that the electric dragon is revealed to be an immense, powerful, uncontrollable attack that absorbs anything, including the summoner, due to the sadness held within their heart. Eventually Gash learns to wield the spell's full power without being consumed.
- Zakeruga: A more concentrated form of the Zakeru spell fired in a fast, straight beam. After this attack is gained, it replaces Zakeru as Gash and Kiyomaro's primary attack spell.
- Rauzaruku: A rainbow-colored lightning bolt strikes Gash and amplifies all of his physical abilities for a time period of 30 seconds. This is one of the only spells that allows Gash to remain conscious, which makes it a valuable tactical power; however, other spells cannot be used in its duration.
- Zaguruzemu: A spell that charges anything it strikes with electricity. It takes the form of a sphere of light. When an offensive spell is cast, the stored electricity explodes and increases the power of any electric spell cast by Kiyomaro and Gash. Another strength of Zagurzemu is that, if multiple Zagurzemus are cast and stored in separate objects, an electric spell will be redirected to the closest object charged with a Zargurzemu and growing more powerful due to absorbing the previous Zagurzemu, especially useful if the enemy is charged as the attack will "home in" on them.
- Baou Kurou Disugurugu: Gash summons an immense clawed hand similar to that of the Baou Zakeruga dragon, and attacks his enemy with it. Gash uses his hand to control the clawed hand and does not lose consciousness.
- Ganreizu Zakeru: A multi-turret gun is summoned, allowing for several small blasts of lightning to be thrown out at the same time.
- Teozakeru: A more powerful version of Zakeru. This spell replaces Zakeruga as Gash and Kiyomaro's primary attack spell. Gash fires a huge lightning wave with power superior to that of Zakeru and Zakeruga.
- Maazu Jikerudon: Similar to Jikerdor, but has the ability to deflect enemy attacks. When it comes into contact with the enemy, it pulls them inside and electrocutes them.
- Jio Renzou Zakeruga: A massive dragon that is similar to Baou Zakeruga. This dragon is more snakelike, and has diamonds decorated on its body. The head has four pointed sides sticking from it. It shoots out mini-electric turrets, rams the enemy and sends it flying.
- Shin Beruwan Zakeruga: Gash's strongest attack. Gash summons a colossal lightning dragon with multiple heads, spikes jutting out of its neck, and gigantic claws similar to that of Baou Kurou Disugurugu. The dragon heads proceed to devour the target with its humongous fangs, engulfing it with its claws. Although a Shin level spell, its power perhaps is on a level of its own (this spell can only be used with the one-off power-up granted by the Golden Book).
