Blue Exorcist, Vol. 21

Kato, Kazue. Blue Exorcist, Vol. 21. 2018. 202p. ISBN 9781974703937. Available in the graphic novels section of the library. 


Yukio continues to question himself and his origins, following the revelations in Blue Exorcist, Vol. 20. A massive demonic attack on Tokyo, visible to most of the population, causes casualties and signals the beginning of an unprecedented global surge in demonic activity. As the Knights of the True Cross and the Japanese government struggle to manage the widespread chaos, Lightning's relentless investigation into the Illuminati has put immense pressure on the Knights and, more specifically, on Yukio. This mounting tension pushes Yukio to his breaking point, prompting him to confront Mephisto, desperate for the truth about his and Rin's birth.

However, Mephisto, ever the enigmatic figure, continues to manipulate events from the shadows, seemingly pulling the strings of everyone involved. Despite Yukio's urgent need for answers, the complexities surrounding his and Rin's origins, combined with Mephisto's evasiveness, indicate that simple resolutions are unlikely. Yukio faces a stark choice. Join the Illuminati to gain more knowledge and perhaps receive some answers to the questions he's been asking, or remain with his friends and his brother. Yukio makes a shocking choice!


The story continues in Blue Exorcist, Vol. 22.
