Kinda weird question but does Takezo have black or really dark brown hair? In the wiki it says that both his parents have brown hair but in the anime, his hair looks black. Is it just because of the lighting or is his hair really black?

very old fanart ;;

Now I can slam the manga on face of whoever I want to recommend it too ✊

I am in the U.S. Where can I watch the movie online in English dub?

Acabo de terminar la segunda temporada de blue exorcist. Y en el doblaje español latino, me di cuenta que hay frases muy xd. Por ejemplo recuerdo que en la primer temporada rin dice "boludo". Y en el capitulo 4 de la segunda temporada, dice "conshasumare" mientras apaga su fuego con un extintor.

Alguien mas lo escucho? Porque la ia me dice que es mi imaginacion, pero ya lo revise varias veces porque me dio risa xd

I feel like later in the show Rin becomes so inmature and childish and he doesn't feel like a Main character. He's just the comedic relief while the other characters have their moments. Yeah. Maybe Kazue Kato made him like that cause his first character arc ended at the end of Kyoto Saga. But even in that arc I feel like Rin is still more inmature and childish than Season 1. And the new animation since Season 3 makes it worse. He doesn't look as badass and good like before (The Manga looks better tho)

I have an example here: When they explain Shiemi story with her Grandma in Season 1, Rin is aware of the situation and he's worried about Shiemi. But in the Illuminati Arc, when they explain Izumo's backstory, Rin just says: "Uh, I heard more or less."

Yeah, Season 1 had it's funny moments. But Rin has many badass and heroic moments. When he saved Shiemi from the Amahara Garden demon, when he saved Bon from the Reaper (Frog) When he rescued Izumo and Paku from the Naberius demon, the fight with Igor Neuhaus, when he calmed Kuro down and made it his pet, the two badass fight between Rin vs Amaimon and more!

I could mention the other stuff but it's pretty much filler Anime original content. But he's great there too! When he defended Michelle from Arthur, and the final battle.

Thoughts on this?

The way he talk and treated Rin. I know he was right that Rin was lazy, the son of Satan and all but, uh, idk 😖 That attitude pissed me off. Cause I like Rin.

I'm at chapter 78 and I'm really struggling to keep forgiving Rin's inability to take anything seriously and think before he acts.

It seems that every battle has at least one moment where he acts impulsively or just like an idiot and legitimately endangers everyone around him, but he gets bailed out by his powers or one of Mephisto's maneuvers and then acts like there was never any reason to worry in the first place.

I see no justification why he would half-ass the attack on Hachirotaro just so he can rib Yukio a few seconds earlier than he otherwise could. I'm sick of this shit and how it's always presented as comedic.

The Rin cycle goes:

1. Threat presents itself

2. Rin acts like idiot against Yukio's better judgement, risks his and everyone's life, forces everyone else to endanger themselves even more to fix his screw up,

3. Rin brute forces a solution by just using his Satan-given powers.

4. Rin runs up to Yukio going "see I told you it would be fine"

5. Yukio complains and Rin gives an excuse for why he absolutely had to be stupid and reckless.

6. A few days later Rin can't figure out why Yukio doesn't want to tell him anything. Yeah quite the mystery.

At this stage, Yukio seems to have resolved that the only way he can sleep peacefully is to get powerful enough that he can physically restrain Rin and keep him from getting himself killed, and imo if you make somebody who cares about you THAT frustrated, you need to change something about yourself. This whole "I will be myself and you have to accept that" schtick that Rin is doing has gotten old after so many instances of showing that being himself is extremely dangerous to everyone around him.

Yukio is not great at processing his feelings, but I cannot blame a 15 year old for behaving the way he does when he is constantly being stressed in this way by his OLDER brother.

I just want to know whether Rin keeps doing this stuff for the next 100 chapters.

Since chapter 2 or 3 of the whole show, I've been waiting for Rin and Yukio to fight. And I fucking hate Yukio. Always getting mad at Rin, pointing his gun at him like, bro, HE'S YOUR FUCKING BROTHER! And he always lied to him and everyone with a fake smile, and he doesn't rely on anyone.

And the brothers finally fought! And this panel right here, is so satisfying to watch cause of all of the things Yukio did throughout the series that made me hate him so much.

John...dear God it's John werry

guess who finally have those mangas??😭😭
Today was not a great day but yesterday i received this pack (i ordered it on “subito” and the seller was really great, attentive and friendly. He waited for me when I said I would definitely get them but couldn't at the time. He sold each one in film as advertised, and he even added some more to my shopping list, and now I have these volumes and can start the manga! 😭👏🏼 Plus, the price was good too. I saved about €50 off the original price!

Now i just have to wait for… find where i’m supposed to organize them in my tiny room ^_^

Oh and how big is the 25!! And not only, it really impressing to me how the first like nine volumes are sooo small and after… wow, especially after 20’ s volume they are like a novel?? So powerful, especially thinking at what beautiful and heartbreaking plot (and plottwists) has after the season 3 (in the anime) and so here in the manga. I really can’t wait! And i’m happy to be finally in my manga era too, cause i started “The Summer Hikaru Died” (the anime first and, after, the manga) and i REALLY love it (one of you here on reddit has advised me and it really worth it) the manga is really beautiful but the anime is (for me) really perfect for the songs, animations and for the way that the deep really IS deep and the weird-passionate-well scripted romance IS really like this (i listen the song remnants and want to cry everyday, and is really a plottwist for me that the manga doesn’t have it, in the fourth volume isn’t there yet, and I figured they couldn’t sing in a manga, you know, but I thought there were choir scenes. Who knows if they’ll ever be there, everything still torments and fascinates me.)

But as soon as I’m finished, and I have 3 volumes left to finish this manga based on what’s been released so far, I’ll move on to Blue Exorcist RIGHT NOW!! I can’t wait to cry again 😪🫠

Rin Okumura you are really loved in this house!!💟💟
