Haha, God only knows? I think that whole battle was just trying to be illustrate the duality of the atma: the asura mind and the human mind. There was also the whole issue with the dead lover, which is the only way you get the item necessary to spark that encounter. I don't know; I think it was pretty much of a bunch of bullshit? All the angels do the same thing in DDS--act like crazy assholes that are more or less inherently more evil and without logic than their human counterparts. I guess in the context of the asura, they're interesting fights, but I, again, think that Atlus could've done something more interesting with such substantial mythological figures. Given that the angels in DDS all appear from out of control corrupt data (maybe even Metatron), it might make sense for them to be so blood thirsty. Metatron less so, though, because in the junkyard, the asura/atma should really be as Angel puts it in the beginning, "Your true self."
