Ao no Exorcist

It's been quite a while, haven't it! But here I am, with a new (short) anime review!

The world consists of two dimension - Assiah, the dimension of the humans, and Gehenna, the dimension of the demons. Humans can't go into Gehenna, but the demons can go to Assiah. Because of this, there are exorcists to exterminate the problematic demons. Shiro Okumura is an exorcist who has taken a pair of twins under his wing - the children of Satan, the king of demons. However, only Rin has the flames of Satan. With his powers sealed into a sword, Rin knows nothing about them and lives a fairly normal life. But what happens when Satan tries to come into Assiah...?

Ao no Exorcist - or Blue Exorcist in English - brought me laughter (a lot of laughter), tears, some anger...I went through a lot of emotions throughout the series. It's however quite the usual "shounen" anime you can see. But I myself really liked it. You get to learn about the characters quite well. I even remember the names for once! That's an achievement, as I usually forget everyone but maybe three characters.

It's only 25 episodes, but in my opinion the show can just end there. I haven't read the comic it's based on though, but as for the anime, I think there's no need for a second season. So, even if I think there'll be one, I think it's great as that. It makes me want to read the comic. (laughs)
