Ao No Exorcist: Introduction

Please be advised this post is for informative purposes only and may contain spoilers.

Ao no Exorcist, originally a manga of  Kato Katsue, is now on screen in April, 2011 presented by A-1 Pictures, Japan.

The hero Okumura Rin, the blue flame inheritor of Satan,  is raised by Father and Exorcist Fujimoto Shiro, a priest who is the only one that can resist the possession from Satan. Rin's demonic power is sealed in Koumaken (katana) by Mephisto Pheles to prevent him from awakening.

When the day comes the Koumaken could no longer control the power of Rin, intruders sent by Satan have destroyed the church where Rin is protected. Fujimoto is possessed by Satan during a quarrel between him and Rin. The world has changed when Fujimoto died and Rin released his power in order to save the people around him...


Saint Cross Academy

 Mephisto Pheles encounters Rin to exterminate the Satan blood. However, Rin swears he will be the one and the only blue flame exorcist who will use demonic power to kill demons. Rin is then accepted to Saint Cross Campus to receive training to become a true exorcist,  where his twin brother, Okumura Yukio is the new instructor who has been an exorcist several years ago.

Unlike other exorcist, Rin uses his blue flames on akuma (demons). Each time, the flame will also destruct his human body and will gradually cause Rin to loose his mind. Will the two brothers finally end up to fight each other? What will Rin's fate offer to him? As an Ao No Exorcist (Blue Exorcist), will Rin become heroic as who raised him up?

The animation is crafted nicely and creatively with some magnitude scenes of battle between humans and demons. A very touching opening introduces Rin's hybridity and his reasons to fight against the race he inherited power from.
