Blue Exorcist

## Blue Exorcist *Blue Exorcist* (*Ao no Exorcist*) is a beloved supernatural action shounen that captivated anime fans in the early 2010s with its audacious central premise: what if the son of Satan himself chose to become an exorcist? Rin Okumura appears to be an ordinary troubled teenager — until the day he discovers that his biological father is none other than Satan, the ruler of Gehenna. When Satan kills Rin's adoptive father Father Fujimoto in a bid to use Rin as a vessel to invade the human world, Rin makes a fateful decision: he will master his demonic powers and become an exorcist powerful enough to defeat Satan himself. Enrolling at the True Cross Academy alongside his twin brother Yukio — already a prodigy exorcist — Rin must hide his demonic nature while training in the arts of purification, summoning, and combat. Produced by A-1 Pictures with vivid action sequences and a warmly drawn cast of classmates and mentors, *Blue Exorcist* remains one of the most entertaining supernatural action series of its era. A manga-faithful adaptation, *Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Saga* (2017), follows the original run.
