DWMA is run by Shinigami, also known as Death, the Grim Reaper, as a training facility for weapons and meisters to hone their powers, as well as an organization to preserve world order against anyone who threatens it, including witches, monsters and evil demons called kishin. The main protagonists attend a school called Death Weapon Meister Academy (DWMA) located in the fictional Death City in Nevada, United States. Most of the characters in the series, including the main protagonists, are classified into two groups: humans who are born with the power to turn into weapons, called demon weapons, and the wielders of these weapons, called meisters.
