The original Blue Exorcist series has been on Netflix for a good bit of time now but it looks like that time is about to end. The streaming service is now listing a May 2nd, 2019 expiration date for it unless a renewal comes through and extends it. It’s unclear what Aniplex USA may do with it since they do like to take series out of rotation for a bit here and there, making it a bit more noteworthy when they do return. Regardless, we recommend that if you’re in the midst of watching or wanting to, you spend April getting it done.
Plot Concept: “Assiah, the realm of humans, and Gehenna, the realm of demons. Normally, these two dimensions would never intersect, but having possessed all material substances, the demons are now intruding on the material world. But among the human race, there are those who can exorcise such demons.” – the Exorcists.
Rin Okumura and his twin brother Yukio have been raised by Shiro Fujimoto, an eminent priest, so it comes as a shock when Rin discovers their biological father is actually Satan! As the border between “Assiah” (the human world) and “Gehenna” (the demon world) is crossed by evil, Rin vows to become the ultimate exorcist and defeat his own father. To hone his raw skills, Rin enters True Cross Academy to train with other exorcist candidates.
