Sons of Satan? Yes please.

Ao no Exorcist was one of the hottest animes this year.

Every day demons are around to cause havoc to humans. They roam everywhere but the God of Demons, Satan, isn’t able to roam the living/human world of Assiah without a strong enough host that can contain him and all of his powers. So naturally he creates his own hosts, sons, twins, Yukio and Rin. The twin boys are brought up by a human exorcist in hopes of having a normal life. But when Satan kills the man who brought them up, Rin decides on becoming an exorcist to get revenge. Oh and when I say exorcist, I don’t mean holy crosses. I mean guns, bombs, legit weapons.

What started out as an anime filled with vengeance and action later turned into something more settle. Later it began to revolve around on Rin and his lack of ability to study, although Rin has made quite the character development, the story line because less and less, how do you say it, believable? After all how can a group of exorcists in training hope to defeat the God of all Demons?

The action scenes featured in this is quite short and dramatic, but enough to keep you entertained. The comedic parts are tied in frequently to give the audience a chuckle. I personally loved the soundtrack and the characters are amazing lovable as well as the artwork.

But like most animes, it’s rushed, left many unanswered questions, and differed from the actually manga since the manga series hasn’t been finished. But judging the anime solely on itself, with only 25 episodes, I’ll give it a 9/10.I may be a little biased since I really enjoyed the anime.


Yukio’s ass needs more screen time.
