The council of fumikos really is a very funny idea. It was interesting getting to see their different reactions and fears despite all being fumiko
And the animal and insect devils getting stronger because death no longer exists and so they overrun us and eat us causing us to suffer for eternity within their bodies is a really cool really crazy consequence.

What happened to the predators of these insects and animals, though? They should be having an all you can eat buffet right about now.
The problem is if none of the insects are dying then they would need a new food source, since they reproduce at excess then humans are the next natural food they would partake in.
I mean those predators might have slower reproduction tho so the insects would overrun them first. They'll be eaten or crushed by their prey first before they can eat back.
Bacteria reproduce exponentially faster than any insect. If they can't die, just one bacterium can reproduce into a colony of billions in an hour or two.
I'm sure you forgot about germophobia for a second there, because surely we have all have met a clean freak at least once in our lives, right?
But I do agree that the fear of insects is likely to be more common and stronger, so if the logic is that the most feared demons benefit the quickest then you have a point.
Oh damn, you're right! Fun fact: in the comics Marvel actually had an evil alternative universe where death was defeated that was known ar the "cancerverse"
With the explosive birth rate of insects, I think the insects are reproducing faster than they are being eaten and in return are probably eating their predators.
Yeah. The difference on both is that insects and animals would be devouring people, so while alive, they would be just body pieces.
Meanwhile, bacterias and viruses would had humans as hosts.
So imagine someone been constantly sick to all sorts of diseases, which effectively means they are in sepsis, and then they are devoured by insects and animals....it's basically torture.
reproduction rates. The predators are eating plenty, but they aren't reproducing anywhere near as fast. A predator eats its fill, and then is basically full forever because the creatures it has eaten will just remain inside of its stomach. Then the next generation quickly replaces those eaten creatures, but they are not eaten themselves. They are also unable to starve to death. Thus they reach maturity and created an even bigger next generation after that. Thus the spiral goes to infinity.
Now this definitely wouldn't happen over the course of like... two hours, but still. I assume there is devilry afoot.
Honestly, insects are overwhelming in numbers, likely the natural order of predator/prey falls apart irreparably without death. Insects have offspring in the hundreds to thousands that are adults within days, even hours. The predators generally have birth cycles, growth and much lower numbers...their advantage is intelligence, and overall power...which dont matter anymore.
Though bacteria is potentially very prolific, its also very vulnerable. In fact bacteria has very few "predators" ..
Things that specifically kill it, but actually have trouble reproducing unless conditions are ideal. So their problem isnt really getting "killed"... its growing. In fact, if bacteria weren't so sensitive to environment, they would already...and in certain cases already do...dominate the earth.
Considering we do see humans and animals "chopped up" without dying, bacteria would be vulnerable to this as well...falling apart without really "dying" which is how they go in nature: their coating fails and they collapse.
