The Hagoromo (Official name: New Magical Cloth Type 5-F), also known as Celestial Robe or feather cloth, is the main equipment of the Runaway Spirit Squad Personnel and Vintage. It has been shaped like a type of cloth using a gel created from magical nanomachines so that it can be very flexible.
It can be reproduced by using the user's magic, expanding, shrinking and transforming without energy loss. It also gives new devils the ability to fly in the air. The hagoromo has also shown other abilities, such as creating substitute dolls that creates an illusion to look exactly like the person it is portraying as (demonstrated by Elsie), playing back the events of the close-past (demonstrated by Haqua) and even see people's desires (demonstrated by Nora). But these abilities depends on the skill level of the person. This is shown when Elsie, a dunce, can only use the first ability, and not the other two.

As a seasoned enthusiast deeply entrenched in the realm of supernatural phenomena, particularly within the context of manga and anime, I find myself compelled to shed light on the intricacies surrounding the enigmatic artifact known as the Hagoromo. This mystical garment, also recognized as the Celestial Robe or feather cloth, plays a pivotal role in the narrative of the Runaway Spirit Squad, adding layers of complexity to the supernatural elements explored in this captivating storyline.
The Hagoromo, officially designated as the New Magical Cloth Type 5-F, is not merely a passive accessory but a dynamic piece of equipment for the personnel of the Runaway Spirit Squad and the enigmatic organization, Vintage. My wealth of knowledge extends to its origins, intricately tied to a gel formed by magical nanomachines, which bestows upon it a remarkable flexibility. What truly sets the Hagoromo apart is its ability to be manipulated by the user's magic, allowing for a myriad of functions such as expansion, contraction, and transformation, all achieved without energy loss.
Among its diverse capabilities, the Hagoromo grants devils the power of flight, eliminating the need for conventional flying objects. Moreover, it possesses the unique trait of reproducing the user's magic without any loss—a feat showcased in Chapter 56.5 of the manga. The Hagoromo's versatility is further highlighted by its capacity to create lifelike substitute dolls, alter the appearance of objects, and even mimic the function of hands for gripping and manipulating items.
Throughout the narrative, various characters demonstrate distinct abilities associated with the Hagoromo, emphasizing the depth of its mystical properties. Elsie, a character with limited magical prowess, showcases the creation of substitute dolls, while Haqua exhibits the ability to perform video playbacks of recent events. Nora takes it a step further by delving into the minds of target beings, revealing their desires and preferences.
Notably, the Hagoromo can be utilized defensively, turning invisible to ordinary individuals, erasing the presence of those within it, and forming projectiles or javelins for offensive strikes. Vintage agents, as depicted, employ the Hagoromo in combat, highlighting its multifaceted nature.
Intriguingly, the Hagoromo is not immune to the quirks of its users, as evidenced by Elsie occasionally forgetting to activate its cloak function during flight. However, its 50-year warranty and resistance to water, magnetism, and magic contribute to its overall reliability.
Delving into trivia, the Hagoromo assumes different colors for each user in the anime adaptation, adding a visually distinctive element to its mystique. Additionally, connections to Hell seem to grant individuals the ability to see through its disguise spell, as illustrated by Yukie Marui's perception of Elsie when the latter is disguised as Kanon on television.
In Chapter 213, an implicit link is drawn between the strength and durability of the Hagoromo and the magical prowess of its user, emphasizing the symbiotic relationship between the artifact and its wielder. The very name "Hagoromo," meaning "feather mantle," pays homage to The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, further enriching its cultural and literary significance.
To encapsulate, the Hagoromo stands as a testament to the rich tapestry of supernatural elements woven into the narrative, offering readers and viewers a glimpse into a world where magical nanomachines intertwine with ancient folklore, creating a compelling and immersive experience.
