One year later: I revisited this recently, and found a number of volumes had been added. It appears I'd read up to Vol. 9 before, and thought it all merely OK; starting in Vol. 10 an arresting new character was added, Lewin Light aka Lightning, who boosted the story up a whole level (and stole every scene he was in), and a new plot arc, ditto. (It actually takes till Vol. 16 for Light to get full traction.) For Vols. 10 - 19, which is what I've read of the new material so far, I'd call it aI had heard of Blue exorcist for a while before picking it up for myself from my local W.H.Smith.I only picked it up because I thought it would give me something to read that afternoon, but boy, am I glad I bought it. I am hooked!I've never been up to date with a Manga series; I purchased the other 3 that week, and have asked for the 5th for Christmas, which was released last week.I think the art style of Blue exorcist is lovely. I love how the characters look their age. I think there's nothing
I read the first volume, it's decent but there's nothing new in the story. It doesn't keep me interested enough to read the next volume.
This is a very nice graphic novel. Never have I expected I would be interested in reading graphic novel. Oh well, gonna search for the second book once I'm finish with the third graphic novel I bought together with this one.
Ive been a big fan of this series since its initial serialization in Jump Square magazine a few years back, so you can imagine my excitement when I found out that it was being released here and that Viz was translating it. So I dug in happily, and was quite pleased to find that Viz got it right, and it isnt even apart of their SigIkki line, so no special effort was needed. The English adaptation was more or less seamless which was to be expected as this series doesnt really have many cultural
Another good start for a shounen manga! I had seen the first episode of the anime already so I knew what to expect; although I was kind of surprised the beginning in the manga wasn't as developed as it was in the anime, you get a much better understanding of why Rin fights with the boys and starts the whole mess in the anime than in here.Definitely a lot crammed into this first volume, but thanks to reading Bakuman I'm wondering if that's because this was originally a one-shot that got turned
