History of the Blue Exorcist series

The story of Blue Exorcist takes place in a world that contains two different dimensions. One of these dimensions is the human dimension, Assiah, and the other is the demon dimension, Gehenna. The two main characters the story focuses on are Rin and Yukio Okumura, who were raised by the exorcist father Shiro Fujimoto. One day, Rin discovers that he and his brother are the sons of Satan. After witnessing the death of Father Shiro, Rin aims to become an exorcist like his tutor to defeat Satan. To achieve this, he enrolls at True Cross Academy, a preparatory school for exorcists. To Rin's surprise, he discovers that Yukio is already a veteran exorcist at the academy, as well as his teacher.

Development of the Blue Exorcist series

The Blue Exorcist manga series was written and illustrated by Kazue Kato. Since its initial release in 2009, 25 volumes have been published, as well as an anime series and a film. As of November 2016, the Blue Exorcist manga series had over 15 million copies in circulation. Much of this popularity stems from Japan, where the seventh volume, the first of the Square Jump manga series, will see a million copies printed. Critical reception to the series has been generally positive, with critics stating that it is particularly suitable for teenage readers. It has also been compared to other shonen manga. Each character is very unique, with their own traits, goals, and desires.
