Blue Exorcist fans rummage all over the internet to find just a single piece of information that would lead them to Blue Exorcist Season 3, which will not just be a piece of information but a hope to see satan’s son once again. Six years have passed, and the fan base has dropped, although the fan base for the manga has remained strong; if they do not revive Blue Exorcist Season 3, then there is less than a 10% chance of seeing it on screen again.
The classic anime no doubt has captivated hearts from around the world, but the slow renewal is one annoying problem indeed. But today, we are not just going to talk about Blue Exorcist Season 3 renewal but also its expected plot and some latest news.
Blue Exorcist – a dark fantasy manga series written and illustrated by Kazue Kato, has been the most awaited anime series till now. The manga published in Shueisha’s Jump Square magazine since April 2009 is an ongoing series whose 28 Tankobon volumes have been collected till November 2022. The Blue Exorcist anime adaptation was made by A-1 Pictures, whose work includes Black Butler, Fairy Tail, Sword Art Online, Your lie in April, erased, and much more great anime.
Blue Exorcist Season 1 broadcasted from April to October 2011. Blue Exorcist Movie was released the following year, in December 2012. Blue Exorcist Season 2: Kyoto Saga aired from January to March 2017. The best part is that the manga series crossed 25 million copies sales in December 2022, encouraging the franchise to renew the anime series.
Blue Exorcist Season 3 Release Date
What I am about to reveal would sound like a miracle to you, and no, it’s not based on rumors but official news that I am sharing. I will also be leaving the tweet below for your reference. The official Twitter handle of Blue Exorcist manga revealed that an anime project is under work, but we do not know yet whether it will be Blue Exorcist Season 3 or a spin-off or a movie, or a reboot.
But fans expect it to be Blue Exorcist Season 3, and as the fans have been flooding their tweet about Blue Exorcist Season 3, there is a high chance of Blue Exorcist Season 3.
Blue Exorcist Season 3 was officially confirmed during the anime panel at Jump Festa 2023, and the official website also confirmed the announcement with the release of a short teaser.
The Twitter handle recently tweeted that the writer will be taking a one- or two-month break, so there will be no new chapters in upcoming months. The tweet indicates that the Blue Exorcist team will be busy preparing the Blue Exorcist Season 3 anime series. Based on sources and data, we can expect the release by July or August 2023.
Blue Exorcist Plot
There are two dimensions in the world of Blue Exorcist. One is a reflection of the other, like a mirror. The first realm is the Assiah of humans, and the other is Gehenna, the world of demons ruled by satan.
At first, there was no link between the world which allowed them to walk in the other world, but demons occasionally wander among humans by using living being to cross the different worlds. To destroy the humans who crossed the threshold, exorcists were born whose sole job is to find and finish such demons. Over time the exorcist team had grown and deployed several branches worldwide, secretly managed by the command of the Vatican covertly.
The story is about a young boy named Rin Okumura with a younger twin named Yukio Okumura, raised by Father Shiro Fujimoto (exorcist). Soon Yukio and Rin learn the ugly truth that they are the sons of satan; upon witnessing Shiro on death’s door, Rin draws out the demon-slaying sword Kurikara which gives him demonic features like fangs and a tail with blue flames.
The power of blue flames allows him to destroy anything he touches. Rin determines to become an exorcist and follow his father’s steps to defeat satan. He enrolls in True Cross Academy and exorcist cram school run by True Cross Order. Rin learns that Yukio is a veteran exorcist and is also one of his teachers. Rin befriends many classmates and begins his journey along with his brother to defeat the undefeatable and most potent demon named Satan.
Blue Exorcist Season 3 Plot & Expectations
We expect that Blue Exorcist Season 3 will cover the Illuminati arc from the manga, although there has been no confirmation for it so far; it’s just an assumption. It may come in 2 parts because there are enough source materials for 24 episodes. In the Illuminati arc, we will see the evil group Illuminati, who will be involved in many suspicious activities leading to the resurrection of Satan.
The group leader is the King of Light, the strongest demon Lucifer himself. Does it sound spooky and mysterious right? We can’t wait to hear more of Blue Exorcist Season 3 news. If we get any more information, we will share the updates, so make sure to bookmark the page and check the website occasionally.
