With two new Blue Exorcist story arcs on the way, it’s time to revisit the long-running show’s main characters. Today, we get a character trailer for Yukio Okumura: the son of Satan and twin brother of series star Rin. Relive his journey as he works to become an exorcist and masters his own unique powers:
Blue Exorcist -Beyond the Snow Saga- is scheduled to premiere in October 2024. This will be followed in January 2025 by the recently announced Blue Night Saga. Both will stream on Crunchyroll as they air in Japan.
Based on the manga by Kazue Kato, the most recent season of the Blue Exorcist anime was Blue Exorcist -Shimane Illuminati Saga-. Daisuke Yoshida (Hunter x Hunter animation director) directed the season at Studio VOLN, with Toshiya Ono (86 EIGHTY-SIX) on series composition and Yurie Ohigashi (APPARE-RANMAN!) on character designs.
All three seasons, including the original 2011 series and Kyoto Saga sequel produced by A-1 Pictures, are currently streaming on Crunchyroll. Crunchyroll describes the series:
Assiah, the realm of humans, and Gehenna, the realm of demons. Normally, these two dimensions would never intersect, but the demons are now intruding on the material world.
