⚠️Spoilers Ahead!⚠️

Trailer

Honestly, I was shocked when I saw the trailer. I didn't understand the story, but I understood it from the start. This anime is the third season of the anime "Blue Exorcist", and the story is adapted from the manga series of the same name by Kato Kazue. The anime will have 12 episodes, and the story will further explore the relationship between the Illuminati, Lucifer, and Rin and Izumo.


Summaries

The season begins with Rin and her friends on a mission in Shimane, Japan. Their job is to investigate a mysterious murder involving a demon hunter.

Their investigation leads them to the Illuminati, a secret society that aims to open the doors to Hell, the world of demons. Sataniar, a mysterious leader became a central figure in the Illuminati. Now, Rin and his friends must work together to stop the Illuminati and stop them from opening the gates of Hell.


Story

Rin Okumura, a boy who dreams of becoming an exorcist but is the illegitimate child of the demon god Satan, advises his classmate Seigoin who begins seeing demons. Even though Rin asked Suguro Ryuuji and the other Exwires at the Exorcism Exploration School how to make the demon invisible, he couldn't find a solution. At the same time, Rin is invited to dinner by Mephisto Fels, mentor of the Japanese branch of the Knights of the True Cross and dean of the True Cross Academy. However…

Arthur Angel and Lightning catch a spy hiding among the Knights of the True Cross and learn that the secret society "Illuminati" is planning to kidnap someone for a project. And now, the time has come for them to put their plans into action. After hearing the news, Kirigakure's Shura summoned the Exwires. Meanwhile, Izumo confronts Kora, and when he sees the special doll in her hands, he explodes in anger...

With the declaration of war by Lucifer, the Lord of Light, all branches of the Knights of the True Cross had fallen into chaos. Meanwhile, Yukio, Rin, and the rest of Exwire travel to Izumo's hometown in Shimane Prefecture to bring Izumo and Shima home. Izumo is kidnapped and imprisoned in an Illuminati-controlled Far Eastern laboratory. When Izumo wakes up, he finds Shima wearing an Illuminati uniform. Then he also met someone with whom he had a deep connection.

Takara summons Izumo's familiar, the fox god Mike, and tells him about the past surrounding the Kamiki family and the Inari Taisha Shrine. Tamamo, Izumo, and Kujuku's mother come from a lineage of shrine maidens, and she serves as the head of the family who must shoulder the burden of controlling the Kyuubi, a fox demon. As a shrine maiden, Izumo has extraordinary supernatural powers, but in her personal life, she has no one to rely on and spends her days with her nagging mother and younger sister. Those days were shattered when the Inari Hikaru Foundation appeared and started taking action.

Under the guise of the Inari tourism urbanization project, the Illuminati are gradually destroying the region. After hearing about Izumo's past from Mike, Rin and her friends head to the peaceful town of Inari, believed to be the entrance to the Illuminati's underground research laboratory. Meanwhile, in the laboratory, Izumo is taken to a room where Michael Gedoin awaits a detailed examination. Izumo shouts to make noise and calls Uke and Mike, giving them a chance to escape. He tries to escape from the underground laboratory, but Renzo Shima blocks his way.

Michael Gedouin highly praised and admired Lucifer, and took further steps to ensure the success of his Elixir research. He devises a plan to separate Rin and his team so that each member can fend for themselves. Rin encounters a strange giant zombie in an underground container in the laboratory, but when he finds out that the zombie is a human corpse possessed by a demon, he hesitates to swing his sword at it. Yukio, Suguro, Shiemi, and Kitomaru each face a demon alone in the laboratory.

The laboratory container is destroyed and Rin and the rest of the team can regroup, but Michael Gedoin attacks them using bloated zombies. Gedoin talks about how the Far Eastern Research Institute became the main base for experimenting with immortality elixirs, and how he revealed the truth about the peaceful city of Inari, angering everyone in the process. Just then, Izumo appears - on her way to fulfill her wish of undergoing Kyuubi transplant surgery. Rin takes out Korai's sword to save Izumo. Rin hits Shima when he tries to stop him from helping Rin. Rin reaches out to help Izumo, but...Forcibly possessed by the Kyuubi, Izumo gathers his energy.

I found the first season very entertaining and I found the difference between the twins peculiar, although the second season I think it is on air, I have not yet started to watch it, I think I watched the first chapter and I was not convinced to see it on air, I think I will try to watch the new season when it is complete.

I am curious about the story of this anime although I think from what I understand this is a review of its third season, if so, then it appeals to me that seasons like this are short, I mean it is made up of only 12 episodes.

Another thing is that watching the teaser trailer, I realized how good is the animation and character design.

I remember I watched Ao no Exorcist and I was all confused because I watched the season where the brother is like the final boss and another where everything is left unfinished, so from there I lost like the thread to this anime that called my attention a lot, I guess later they followed a little more accurate with the manga. Good post <3

I watched the first season of this anime. I felt very identified with Rin's desire to be an exorcist. I've read something about the third season, it would be a pleasure to watch it. Of course, I have to watch the first one first to catch up.
