The second chapter introduces what will be the focus of the series for a while with the exorcism school, while also establishing the status quo for now. The first chapter introduces the brothers, what they are/were like, establishes Rin’s motivation, and even lays down a little bit of world building. There are only three chapters in the book though. It’s primarily just setting things up in its first outing (like with Rin, Yukio, and this whole school) but it does it pretty well when it comes to the execution. To explain the first volume of Blue Exorcist simply: it’s a great introduction to the series with some minor flaws. This revelation is costly and it eventually leads him to enroll in the True Cross Academy, where he plans on becoming an Exorcist and taking down Satan. However, Rin’s life is forever changed when he starts seeing things of an otherworldly nature and discovers his true heritage: he is the bastard son of Satan himself. While Yukio is pretty much an upstanding citizen, Rin is a bit a punk in some ways (not particularly pleasant, gets into fights, and has little motivation in life). In True Cross Academy Town, two orphan twin brothers by the name of Rin and Yukio live in a little monastery with their guardian, Father Shiro Fujimoto.
