In Digimon, Etemon isn’t the villain that forced the Digi-Destined to question everything they knew (though he does make Tai really, really sad at one point.)
I bring up Digimon because after Devimon gets angel-punched, the kids run into Etemon, who’s a mean dude… and that’s about it.
He doesn’t really need to provide a counter-argument to the moral arc of the show.
