Blue Exorcist

Rin Okumura begins to worry about his future as his twin brother, Yukio, is starting school at the prestigious True Cross Academy. Sent to a job interview by his foster father, Shiro, Rin encounters a demon-like creature and causes havoc in the store.

Rin is thrown into turmoil when Shiro tells him that he's the son of Satan! Warning him that he must never draw it, Shiro gives Rin the Koma Sword, and hides him in the monastery basement. Outside, a fierce battle begins…

Vowing to become an exorcist, Rin is taken to True Cross Academy by the mysterious Mephisto, a friend of their late father. Later, Rin heads to the Exorcist Cram School, as Mephisto warns: “You must keep that you’re the son of Satan confidential.”

When Yukio takes on a case, Rin tags along with him to the Exorcism Supply Shop. There he meets Shiemi, a girl with ailing legs, tending to her garden. Yukio examines Shiemi's legs and finding demonic traces, speculates that the garden is the cause.

Rin is always snoozing in class, much to star pupil Suguro's irritation. Suguro's striving to become an exorcist so he can restore his family's temple in Kyoto, and being classmates with such a slacker is more than he can bear.

The biggest headache of Rin’s school life is his daily meals. On Yukio’s advice, Rin starts cooking in the dorm kitchen, preparing lunch the night before. But in the morning, all the food has vanished!

To overcome her shyness, Shiemi secretly vows to “Make friends!” But she’s foiled by her klutziness. After displaying her Tamer skills in class, she finally asks Izumo to be her friend! Soon after, the Exorcist Cram School holds a boot camp.

Crushed by her failure to save her best friend, Izumo lashes out at Suguro! Their bickering escalates until the whole class is involved, and they’re all sent to detention. Suddenly, the students are attacked by the ghoul Rin fought the day before!

Fighting together for the first time, Rin and the others barely survive a harrowing attack. Suddenly, Mephisto and the cram school teachers are before them! Sensing something odd in Noihaus’s behavior, Yukio confronts the teacher, only to discover…

After the excitement of being promoted to ExWire, Rin is soon disgusted with his load of homework. Then, Yukio is summoned for an urgent mission! The familiar of the Knights of the True Cross has gone berserk, and Yukio has to deal with the crisis.

Rin, Shima and Izumo have been sent on a mission, only to end up working instead. They meet a boy named Yohei and learn of the "Demon of the Deep." Yohei lost his father to this monster, and wants revenge. Worried, Rin and the others watch over him.

The class investigates ghost sightings at an amusement park. Rin is partnered with Shiemi, and they find the ghost of a child. He runs away, turning things into a game of tag! Separated from Shiemi, Rin is confronted by Amaimon, King of Earth.

Senior Exorcist First Class Shura Kirigakure stops the battle between Rin and Amaimon. Rin learns that Shura was once a disciple of Shiro's - and that Shura has targeted him for elimination - "the job that my mentor failed to do!"

The first semester has ended, signaling the start of summer vacation for True Cross Academy students. But there’s no rest for Rin and the other ExWires: they must take part in a 3-day drill to prepare for actual combat, under the guise of a camping trip.

Suguro's joint strategy pays off, and the Exwires have success in their sights! But then a gigantic moth demon (cuchi) appears, and attacks Rin the moment he lets his guard down!

Consumed by the power of the flames during his battle with Amaimon, Rin goes berserk! He regains control of himself once his power is exhausted...only to be captured then and there by the current Paladin, Angel!

As the hearing drags on, the Order finds itself unable to decide on Rin's fate, as Mephisto has proclaimed him to be "a weapon for counterattacking Satan." Just then, something happens…!

Rin undergoes training to master his demonic flames, when a giant bird-like demon swoops in on him! After driving it away, all of the Cram School members are sent to investigate how the demon infiltrated the academy...

The Exorcism Cram School students are having a ball with Shima's birthday-based fortune-telling. When they discover that Izumo's birthday is coming up, they hit upon the idea of throwing her a surprise party!

Southern Cross Monastery, where Rin and Yukio grew up, has come under attack by a mysterious assailant! Leaving behind these cryptic words: "I will never forgive anyone related to Satan," the masked assailant escapes...

The assailant has escaped, but things are just getting back to normal after the monastery attack. Just then, someone appears before Yukio!

In light of the recent incidents, Mephisto is dismissed from his post as director. The Order’s Supreme Advisors are ousted as well, paving the way for Ernst to become Pope. And the newly appointed Preceptor of the Japan Branch is revealed to be...

Ernst is scheming to invoke the Gehenna Gate by using the blood of Rin, son of Satan. In order to protect his wounded older brother, Yukio offers to take his place.

Hordes of demons are spilling out of Gehenna Gate, and are now indiscriminately attacking the people of True Cross Academy Town! Meanwhile, Rin has been rescued by Suguro and Shiemi and is starting to come to. What Rin sees when he awakens is...
