Blue Exorcist Synopsis

Humans and demons are two sides of the same coin, just as Assiah and Gehenna are their respective worlds. The only way to travel between the two worlds is through possession. However, Satan, the ruler of Gehenna, has been unable to find a worthy vessel to possess and, consequently, remains locked in his world. In a desperate move to conquer Assiah, he sends his son, intending that he will eventually become a worthy vessel capable of becoming the king of the demons.

The story follows Rin Okumura, who seems like an ordinary boy, until one day he is ambushed by demons. His world is turned upside down when he discovers he is the son of Satan and that his father is looking for him to return so they can finally conquer Assiah together.
