[The video zooms out and the viewer can see Lavi, predictably lying down, on his bunk looking unnaturally solemn. It looks to be very early in the morning, there is a grayish light illuminating the room.

The Akuma are a creation of the Earl, they make up the bulk of his army. The core of an Akuma looks like a metal human skeleton, without a human body and soul--it's useless in this state--so the Earl goes out and he tricks people who are in mournin' over their dead loved ones. He tells these people he can resurrect their loved ones. Well what happens once the soul's been resurrected the Earl sticks it into the metal skeleton. Once that happens the soul falls under the control of the Earl. Then the Earl orders the Akuma to kill its resurrector and wear the skin so they can look normal. When the Akuma finally shed their skins, usually durin' battle against Exorcists, they don't look human at all. They look like monsters with unique abilities and their blood becomes poisonous to normal humans.
There are different levels of Akuma too, four that we know of and the higher the level the more human-like they look. The souls trapped inside become more twisted, but the only person who can see the human soul trapped in the Akuma is a kid called Allen. After seein' the twisted soul of a level four he vomited. So I guess it was pretty bad.
Then there are "converted" Akuma. One of our Exorcist Generals is a scientist. He can convert Akuma to resist the Earl's orders for a limited amount of time. If they revert to their murderous ways they automatically self-destruct, I think that was another one of the General's ideas.
Anyway, long-wided explanation.

Those Akuma sound unsettling. Are those exoscists the only people who stand a chance fighting them?
All in all your world seems pretty dangerous.

Well Exorcists aren't the only people who have a chance against the Akuma, but it's preferable that Exorcists do it. You see Akuma are powered by more than just a soul that deteriorates over time, they are powered by Dark Matter. The polar opposite of Dark Matter is a weapon that only those called Exorcists can use, Innocence. These are weapons we're born with...well most of us anyway. If Akuma are killed by anything other than Innocence then the Akuma's Dark Matter consumes the soul and the soul is lost forever. We don't want that, but sometimes it's unavoidable.
Yeah, until we can beat the Earl our world is very unsafe.

...that would make it a problem, yes. I can see why you would not want those souls to be lost... It's a shame that somebody would use people's souls for such a purpose. Why end the world in the first place?
I wish I could help you out.

Yeah, it's a shame and what makes it worse is that you can't tell humans from Akuma so you're constantly on high alert. I don't know why the Earl wants to end the world, that's kind of a secret.
That's a nice sentiment, if I didn't think you'd be at risk tryin' to help I'd invite you to come on over. If somethin' happened to you I wouldn't want your girlfriend to be sad.

Except for this ...Allen, I suppose. But it isn't much different from being in the company of people you don't trust, really. Not that that makes it any better.
Well I'm a pretty able fighter if I do say so myself, but... I've got my responsibilities here, anyway.
