[X] Plan: Memories of the past for a better future
The Persona 3 Superboss would Summon a Pixie to launch the 'I hope you can cast Infinity and be invincible' '9999 damage in a game with 999 HP' Ultimate attack.
This references the intial Pixie in Nocturne, and the Super Pixie you can obtain if you bring the demon directly descended from your original pixie to an optional locked room in the deepest depths of the bonus True Demon dungeon, armed with 80 in every stat by default and the strongest magic spells.
It's iconic.

The reporter in SMT III is this guy, who btw is likely to be
the reincarnation of the protagonist of SMT2 being eternally punished with terrible lives by YHVH because he kicked his butt. Basically he dies, gets a new life without memories, gets a shitty life and death on a dying world where he can do nothing, YHVH goes 'AHAHA, fuck you!' and sends him off to the next.
SMT III is no exception
SMT III is no exception
BTW, you realize that by choosing the freedom ending
you're also hated by God (YHVH) in the SMT III ending right? Lucifer even warns the demifiend to not get lazy cause he's going to be targeted. I'm willing to believe ol'Scratch about this one because of YHVH history on the series. Granted, the other 'freedom' ending, the True Demon ending is not better.

Choose two:
[X] The girl who believed in strong ruling the weak
[X] The reporter
Choose one:
[X] The Path of Freedom, because no Great Will can control you
Choose one (if you choose too strong one, you might not be able to summon it for a while):
[X] Jack Frost
Choose three:
[X] Kamudo (physical)
[X] Shiranui (fire)
[X] Wadatsumi (ice)

Actually, no, we aren't. What we did to obtain the freedom ending was something that was allowed by YHVH, because it was never stated that the humans couldn't use an old conception to create a new universe, not even by the angels. Don't get me wrong, if he wanted to care about us he would not like the demifiend for what we did, but we still technically followed his own rules and we didn't defy his will, just the one of one of his avatars. And YHVH never cared about them to begin with.
Nah, in the freedom endings, the demifiend is not following the 'rules' because he's a demon (or progressing to that state) that took over the choice of the (terrible people) that were 'chosen' to compete over the conception.
I mean, the whole intro of the game is Lucifer literally barging in and going 'oh you want a human to chose after you destroy the universe? Here, have a half-human half demon'. It's the literal devil rules lawyering the divine plan and in the 'freedom' endings it worked.
In short, i disagree with you, mostly because lucifer says so (and he'd know), we know that SMT YHVH is a dick from the series and even in this game (among other things for having cursed Aleph/Hijiri in both SMTII and this game when Hijiri doesn't even remember his 'sin'), and kagutsuchi is severely pissed off in the ending fight if the demifiend is not a lackey of one of the humans (reasons).
I'm not going to say the 'true demon' ending is better than any reason or the 'nothing happened' ending, and i expect that one would piss him off even more ofc because 'no creation', but even the 'nothing happened' ending is a severe humiliation. All that planning, prophecy and apocalypse... for nothing because a demon got uppity.

Arc 1: Demi-fiend - I
Slowly, you go through the memories, sorting them in your head, and with each memory sorted, the pain in your body lessened.
You have refused all Paths presented to you. You fought Kagutsuchi with the goal of returning the world to it's previous state, the plans of Great Will be damned. You chose Freedom over plans of some Divine Entity. And you told Kagutsuchi so much. You don't remember what happened after that. Have you succeed? Has something else happened after that?
You remember only two people from that time. Well, one person and one demon, but that demon was your greatest friend. The other one... well, he did help you out, and didn't deserve the fate he received, even if he did go mad. Jyoji Hijiri, a japanese reporter for an occult magazine. A man who got obsessed with knowledge, who in truth is cursed, cursed to reincarnate again and again to witness creation and destruction of worlds with no power to affect it. For a 'great sin', but considering what you knew about Great Will, you doubt this sin was so evil.
The demon however, is someone you can trust - the only one you can trust in the whole world. Pixie was with you since the very beginning of your journey. She bore witness to every action you commited, every battle you fought, every choice you took, and even followed you here, whatever happened. When you asked her to stay with you, scared of the idea of losing the only (not-quite)friend you had in that unfamiliar world, she agreed.
You have other memories as well. The Labirynth of Amala, where you have been corrupted seeking strength and nearly lost your way, but managed to turn back at the very last moment you had. The Brockton Bay that changed into the Vortex World, where demons walked and very few humans lived. The Paths, each seductive, offering great things, but at what cost? The Fiends you fought. Some of your fights that put Endbringer battles to shame. Manikin, sad creations who worked hard but could achive nothing in the end. The kid who changed you, and the old man who showed you the Amala. Other things, small, enough to create a picture of your life, not enough to actually remember something specific.
With the memories in their place, you could feel your body once more. You stand up and look over yourself. You have clothes on yourself, so most of your body is hidden from you, but you can still see the tattoos on your arms and legs. You can also feel the horn in your neck. Yeah, it will be hard to hide that. For a moment you wonder if you can just turn the visual effect off or something, but after a bit of trying, you feel it's impossible.
You are also weak. Well, not when compared to a human, but when compared to your state during the fight with Kagutsuchi, you have lost so much of your strength. It is something you can recover, however, if you fight again.
Finally done with your body, you summon Pixie to consider your further actions. This world has capes - humans with supernatural powers. You know now that the powers come from Shards, something created by Great Will and inspired by Magatama. While Magatama are made from the essence of a demon, Shards are made using a bit of power of Great Will. You don't know why Great Will would make something like that, as, as far as you know, no parahuman survived Conception, but it's possible someone did and just hid it from you. Or maybe you just don't remember.
Anyway, the world has capes, and is sure to assume you are one as well. Since you can't really hide the fact, you must think how to proceed. What about your dad? What about school? What about the one who caused the Conception in the first place? The person is somewhere out there for sure. And what about Great Will? You are sure you have angered it with your choice, and when you think about Hijiri, you want to be prepared for the second shoe to fall.
Your further thoughts are stopped by the Pixie hugging you. She is small, so small, yet for demons size doesn't really matter. and her hug could have crushed a normal human. Not you though. You hug her back (as much as you can with her small size), and instantly feel yourself relax. Your friend is there, the rest can be dealt with later.

Uber and Leet know enough to not be seen as a truly dangerous threat as well as useless enough to not be worth the effort to bother with. The general knowledge the have is useful. I also think they would be fun.
