Blue Exorcist (青の祓魔師)

Exorcist, a priest or member of the Knights

of the True Cross.

They eradicate demons that possess people or objects.

Since the reality of demons is a concept the general public

has difficulty believing, exorcists

are seen as mere faith healers or counselors

of the supernatural.

Time for attendance.

Kenji san.

That tracks.

I didn't believe in demons either

till I started seeing them.

Okumura.

Here!

- Uh? - Right. Godaiin.

If everyone could see that one right now,

they'd freak out and run for the exit.

Here.

Here.

What's the matter, Godaiin?

I-- I--

I-- I think I had a--

a dream or something.

He can see 'em too.

THE WORLD'S ASTIR

Am I the only one?

Not even. Others can too.

Huh?

If he can see demons, then

he must have gotten a Temptaint.

Think back a bit.

When you first saw one, was it after something happened?

Like, after you hurt yourself?

Uh, I haven't had any accidents.

Hmm.

Weird.

Then how?

What about you?

Can you see them?

Yeah, all the time.

In fact, I'm training to be an exorcist myself.

What? Really?

Uh-huh. Tell you what.

I'll ask around cram school and try and find some help.

Thanks a lot.

You're an awesome guy, Okumura.

Hmm?

Who, me?

Aw, shucks.

I gotta go now, but give me a holler if you need anything.

You got it!

Oh, and good luck with your exorcist training.

Thanks, man.

And chin up!

I got myself a new friend, and he's in the same class as me!

What is up, Okumura?

Hey, good morning!

Morning!

Oh, I was wondering if you guys knew--

Ah!

You gotta be kidding me.

Don't tell me you got a--

What?

A love letter!

No way! You're right!

This is so rad.

I got a secret admirer!

Morning, guys.

- - Who's that from?

It's from Mephisto, damn it!

Tricking me with this cutesy envelope and stickers!

There, there, my dude.

Get off me, man!

I'm so pissed!

Don't flame up, now.

OK, Dad.

I ain't your dad!

As weird as it is, it might be important.

You better read it.

Hmph.

I don't get it.

Let's see.

It says here, the Vatican decided

to postpone your execution.

What execution?

Remember?

When we were in Kyoto, you used your blue flames,

went berserk, and got sentenced to death!

I did?

I forgot.

How could you forget about that?

There's another page.

PLEASE COME AT AROUND 6 PM IN FORMAL ATTIRE

TO THE HOME OF JOHANN FAUST ON THE TOP FLOOR OF THE ACADEMY.

Huh?

I SHALL BE WAITING FOR YOU!

What the hell does that mean?

Oh, man.

I don't have a good feeling about this.

Come to my mansion for a b-- ban--

what's that word?

You're kidding.

A banquet!

Blanket?

Read a book!

OK, Dad.

Knock it off, dummy!

Who's that?

No!

Find a teacher!

Godaiin!

Help me!

Get lost!

Huh?

Get lost!

What happened?

You're safe now.

I can't take this.

I've had it.

Help me.

Do any of you guys know if there's a way to make

someone stop seeing demons?

Beats me.

I've never heard of any.

Um, once a person has a Temptaint,

it's impossible to sever the bond.

That's the weird thing about it.

That guy doesn't seem to have a Temptaint.

What?

But he has to have one somewhere.

Is this Godaiin kid a friend of yours or something?

Oh, we're not like officially friends.

He seems like a pretty nice guy, though.

Oh, oh!

Izumo!

Paku!

Want to have lunch with us?

Ugh, what a pest.

As if, you dork!

Do you think I'm so desperate that I'd

want to eat lunch with you?

That's not nice.

No worries!

Maybe tomorrow, then.

His optimism has crossed over into masochism.

Hey, Izumo!

Do you know how to stop someone from seeing demons?

What-- what are you talking about?

You-- you little freak!

Keep your voice down, jackass!

Dang it!

Maybe Yukio or Shiro know how to help.

Shiemi!

Yes?

I have to run some errands,

so please look after the shop while I'm gone.

Oh, OK.

You've been studying an awful lot lately, haven't you?

Yep.

And Yuki's supposed to come over and tutor me some more.

Right.

Yes, will do.

Hmm.

Shura.

How's it going, Yukio?

You look beat.

Calls to the Order's helpline have jumped lately,

so I'm dealing with those now.

Bad vibes are in the air.

You better watch your back.

You too.

Oh, one last thing.

Quit dodging your physical and get it done.

I will.

I've just been swamped.

Find the time, all right?

Those medics can be a pain in the ass.

Sure.

TRUE CROSS ACADEMY TOP FLOOR JOHANN FAUST

If anyone would know how to stop someone from seeing

demons, it's Mephisto.

It's not nice to keep your host waiting.

Look, I need to talk to you about something.

Eins, zwei, drei!

Whoa.

Et voilà, dinner!

Matichya brand, extra rich and spicy pork bone, miso instant

ramen, oh, my favorite.

Junk food?

Are you kidding?

My invitation specified formal attire, did it not?

Mm, that's infinitely better.
