Thank you! Happy holidays and such as well! See ya next year for the new season!

They reconstructed this for photo ops at the festival. It's not exact, but it still looks lovely to me.

Be me live in the UK. Really want to watch the first season so I can watch season 2. 3. In think four on crunchyroll.

But there's literally nowhere I can watch it. Literally nowhere can much. I'm not going on Amazon prime spending £20 £30 just on the first season. Hell no.

So I give you the question in the UK. Is there literally anywhere I can watch blue exorcist season 1 specifically? I cannot watch the rest of the show without watching season 1 as as you probably all know.

Yes I have tried funimation, FUNimation is dead I think they shut it down completely.

No illegal streaming sites completely legally

I know we’re not gonna get canon representation in anime and manga but I know some of them have neurodivergent coded characters so wb blue exorcist?

I haven't seen other people talk about this so. Was anyone else uncomfortable with how Shura's backstory and the Hachiro arc played out? Yeah you're supposed to hate Hachiro for being the bad guy, but having his rapey misogynistic plotline at all felt weird and gross to watch. A bloodline of women bearing children then dying at 30 so they never become old or ugly to some man? (This stupid type of plot would of course never be given to a male anime character).

Her and Yukio almost r*ping each other due to Hachiro wanting them to procreate felt like something out of a perverse, poorly-written fanfiction. Her boobs popping out with tentacles when her symbol is removed from her chest. And having Shura as a little kid clinging to Fujimoto talking about being his wife and getting pregnant by him? Sure, it's how she was raised by Hachiro, but wow the author sure did have her child character talk like that to a grown man. And they slightly played her flirting with him for laughs instead of framing it as truly disturbing.

And then Shura having a serious heart to heart about life with Fujimoto...with her shirt off after smushing her boobs into his face.

I know Shura has always been used for fan service, but this season's Shura-centric episodes really felt creepy and disrespectful to her character. Again, I know this plot is supposed to feel wrong and uncomfortable. You're supposed to root for Shura against Hachiro. But the execution felt more exploitative than it did empowering. Also kinda far fetched and stupid. I've seen other shows handle sexual abuse and children with messed up world views/self esteem much better than Blue Exorcist did in these episodes. I'm a fan of the show, but this arc just totally didn't land for me.

So I'm reading the manga, recently got my Vol.15 and the cover is upside down?

Like, the pages are upside down to the cover? Tried getting a pic to show what I mean.

Are all Vol. 15 like this? Couldn't find anything about it online

Since I haven't read the manga, I want to ask here.

In this story, angels etc. Is there any? If I remember correctly, we should have seen the anime as well

Hi im new to the fandom and really want to read some good fanfictions. I'm looking to well written stories about the Okumura twins, can be about both Rin and Yukio but prefer Yukio centric, or stories about Yukio and other characters. I don't read any rin/yukio stories. Do you have any author/story recs?

I know that the mobile game is coming out next year and I’m excited to play that. But what if we got a blue exorcist game after the manga ends that fully adapts it? includes everything, every panel, every page, every arc, even expands on some of the panels and has devil may cry like gameplay and combat? And it has a hub world where you can access side missions, shops and stuff. What do you guys think?

I'm a bit confused with how nobody has noticed Yukio's eye change.
For explanation, Yukio's eyes were a perfect pale blue when he was first in the series up until he first awakened in the fight against Todo. Now they have the red dot in the middle of them, just like rin in his devil form. Has nobody (in the canonical anime series) noticed this???

It feels like it should be obvious unless this is just a viewer thing, to symbolize the transformation he went through (like how haki in once piece isn't seeable, or how the visuals in the demon slayer breaths aren't real)
