Each member is a demon of a different hierarchical class, with His Excellency Demon Kakka being leader of the Akuma and His Majesty Damian Hamada being the "Crown Prince of Hell".

One in 2005 to celebrate their 20th anniversary and another in 2010 celebrating their 25th anniversary, the latter including their first ever world tour.
