News Blue Exorcist Manga Listed by Viz's Distributor
posted on 2010-10-19 08:15 EDT
The North American book distributor Simon & Schuster lists the first volume of Kazue Katō's Blue Exorcist (Ao no Exorcist) manga for release by Viz Media next April. Simon & Schuster's listings do not necessarily indicate definite release plans or dates.
The manga focuses on Rin Okumura, a boy raised by a famous exorcist named Father Fujimoto. After an argument between the two, Rin discovers he is the son of Satan. Rin decides to fight his fate by joining the True Cross Academy to become an exorcist and defeat demons. However, when he draws his father's sword, it releases a dark power within him.
Katō launched the manga in Shueisha's Jump Square magazine in April of 2009, and the fourth compiled book volume shipped in July.

Dawn of the Arcana stumbled at bit in its second volume, but with this one we seem to be back on track.
As far as conclusions go, this arc has one of the strongest. While Eye Opening revealed some important information about the Sonozaki family in general and the twins in particular, Atonement makes us look at what information we already have in a different way.
While the story still has its logical flaws, it remains an engaging read that holds up well despite the passing of years and this volume continues to keep up both the promise and nostalgia of Takeuchi's masterwork.
Overall, neither Pokemon the Movie: Black or its White counterpart really stands out from the already packed herd. While not terrible, these are films that can be safely left alone unless you or your child have a compulsion to truly catch 'em all.
