The heads of the various Myodha temple families gather to discuss recent events surrounding the Eyes of the Impure King. Revelations at the meeting only deepen suspicion of Suguro’s father, Tatsuma, and angry accusations follow. Tatsuma’s silence on the matter isn’t helping either. Amid all the swirling distrust, Rin tries to make sense of things but struggles to keep his flame in check. Then Rin receives a letter that may shed more light on the current situation—and the secret past!

This continues the "stealing the evil eye" plot and the traitor is revealed. Almost everyone continues to treat the MC like crap because of his parentage; despite his rough manner he is clearly a solid guy because he stills fights for the others and is concerned for their emotional well-being even though he gets no credit for it.

This volume is a bit short in terms of plot arc because there are two "bonus" shorts at the end.

[ Releído en 2022. ]

Por fin descubrimos quién es el verdadero traidor y cuáles fueron sus motivos. Lo cierto es que Mamushi no tenía verdaderas malas intenciones, sin embargo, Toudou se aprovechó de esto y le lavó la cabeza con mentiras.

Así mismo, Rin y Suguro vuelven a pelearse, todo porque Suguro no quiere perdonar a su padre, ya que, si bien ha descuidado la Orden Myoda, la intención del sumo sacerdote ha sido proteger a su hijo de un destino cruel.

Poco después, surge otro problema. Al parecer, Rin no puede desenvainar su espada, por tanto, sólo es una carga para los demás. Su mente y corazón no están en el lugar indicado y pese a que debe pelear, eventos anteriores lo han llevado a perder la confianza en sí mismo. ¿Qué pasa si lastima a alguien con la llama azul?

Al final del tomo tenemos un par de historias extra que me encantaron, en especial la de Kuro~.

Este volumen contiene de los capítulos 20 – 23.

Read it for the #48HourJapaneseReadathon.

La historia continúa con myoda y la busqueda de los dos ojos. Se descubre al traidor y la identidad de Okumura, las amistades vuelven a formas lazos y comienza la explicación de la vida del padre de Bon.

Se me ha hecho un poco mas confuso que los demás tomos.

i definitely had a harder time keeping up with what was happening compared to previous volumes, but that's probably just because of how long it's been since i last read any haha

Rin Okumura is the illegitimate son of Satan, but he and his twin brother, Yukio, have been raised by Father Fujimoto, a famous exorcist. Once he discovers the truth, Rin swears to defeat Satan by entering the famous True Cross Academy and becoming an exorcist himself. The only trouble is, he has to keep his demon heritage a secret or he stands a good chance of being destroyed by the very people he wants to join.

This volume is my favourite of the volumes so far. The story arc with the eyes of the Impure King continues and Rin continues the training to control his blue flame.

I felt really sorry for Rin in this volume as, once again, he has to deal with the harsh realities of being the son of Satan. He grew as a character over the course of the book, and I actually felt proud of him . He still has a long way to go, but I believe he can get there! :)

However, this volume focused a lot on the side characters, particularly Suguro, Konekomaru and Shima. It was great to see more of their unique personalities, especially in the case of Konekomaru, who has been overshadowed by the other two up until now. He has a lot more depth to his character than has been shown previously, and I enjoyed learning that.

The theme of friendship is tested in this volume, in particular with regards to the relationship between Rin and Konekomaru. This theme has been strong throughout the series, but I think this volume handled it particularly well. I'm hoping that friendship can triumph over the stigma Rin faces for being the son of Satan, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Overall, I'm looking forward to seeing how this story arc is concluded!

I recommend this manga to anyone who enjoys action-orientated stories with a paranormal twist. :)

Overall Rating: 3.75*

I would have liked less exposition on some of the side characters because it wasn't enough to really give me a feel for them in this one. Also, I feel like things are progressing at a super slow pace and then speeding up really quickly. There needs to be some sort of happy-medium where the plot progresses and we learn about the past at the same time while also developing the characters that doesn't take 1072093710273 chapters. I am hoping that this arc doesn't last too much longer -- or that it overlaps into another arc so that more than one thing is happening at the same time.

Blue Exorcist é indiscutivelmente uma série que adoro e este sexto volume não foi excepção à regra.

Avançou-se um pouco neste novo problema, dos olhos do Rei Impuro, e vemos mais de personagens novas, como os irmãos de Renzo e especialmente o pai de Bon, que ainda tem muito para contar no próximo livro.

A história mantém-se cativante, apesar de não ter evoluido muito, e neste presente volume tivemos ainda a oportunidade de ler duas histórias bónus, que também deram episódios especiais/filme no anime e que gostei de revisitar.

Terminada esta leitura, fico, mais uma vez, a ansiar pela publicação do próximo volume, pela Devir, que está a fazer um belíssimo trabalho.

Awwwww Rin is such a good guy ;u; even though he understands his situation, he doesn't let that change how he treats his friends.
At last, shit has hit the fan. Not only has Rin put himself in a very, very bad situation, but the general populace is at risk of being exposed to what may be the biggest chemical attack of the times. Can Rin and the Knights of the Blue Cross stop the attack dead in its tracks?
I LOVE the Phantom Train bonus story! I hope it's in the anime ^w^

This manga is up there in my top 10. Action, adventure, a smidgen of romance. The character designs are all quite unique which I appreciate. As an aside, the manga and anime are so far removed from each other one you get past that first story arc that they could be 2 completely different stories. They are both quite good, though. Do both.

Es war sehr interessant ein paar Hintergrundinfos zu den anderen Charakteren zu bekommen. :) Vor allem da, denke ich jedenfalls, ein paar Sachen für die Zukunft relevant sein werden.

Ich mag es total wenn Rin seine Flammen raus lässt - auch wenn es ihn manchmal in nicht so tolle Situationen führt. XD

Und, ich mag Kuro sehr. <3

Estoy disfrutando cada vez más este manga, los personajes se van desarrollando hacia personas completas con matices, y se ha sumado un elemento de misterio que me mantiene interesado en la trama. Menos mal que la etapa de "la escuela" pasó rápido porque me parece que ya no daba para más.

El comienzo de la historia de los padres de Bon y Rin estuvo genial, y los dos capítulos extra también fueron muy simpáticos.

The dangers of being blinded by someone who apparently shares that same goal as you, but is actually manipulating you to do what they want... @Mamushi

Shima is also a really stand-up guy and haha a looker 😂😂 It’s so funny to learn that he hates bugs 😂😂

Also, is there a love triangle between Rin and Yukio?? 😲😲

El anime lo vi hace mas de ocho años así que no recuerdo pero creo que esta parte ya no se adapto, pudimos conocer mas la historia de la familia Suguro y por fin conocer al traidor y las motivaciones de robar los ojos del rey impuro.

Ademas trae dos historias extras entretenidas sobretodo la de Kuru.

Renzo, I'm happy for him that he & Rin getting along well. Konekomaru, hope he will get along with Rin even though i feel bad about him that he's the only miwa's family left. Renzo's is the fifth son, the older brother passed away so he have 2nd brother &4th brother, I wondered where's the third brother🤔 go. Rin is in jail cell because of the complicated family problem between bon & his father that Rin had to stepped up between them, punch bon in the face even thought Rin remembered the incident of shiro. The traitor is mamushi, she took the right eyes plus she escaped with todo in mist.

I like all the new characters and we got to learn a lot more about the Kyoto crew in this volume. Also I was glad to see Shima and Koneko starting to forgive Rin and trust him again. The last story was a flashback but I liked how it showed the relationship dynamics between Rin, Yukio, and Shiemi.

Things are finally starting to get serious! I'm having a heck of a time trying to remember everyone's names though, since so many refer to each other by their last names.

Definitivamente, este arco me encanta.

Una vez ya sabes de antemano quién hace qué y por qué, te puedes para a ver los detalles y lo ves de una forma diferente.

El conflictivos de Suguro con su padre me parece superentretenido desde el principio. Es interesante ir desentrañando por qué se llevan mal, a qué se deben los reproches y quién tiene razón (que, como suele ser habitual, ambos la tienen en ciertos medida).

El estrés entre los miembros del grupo Myoda aumenta a la par que las sospechas del círculo interno del grupo aumentan. ¿Quién está tras el ojo? Las posibilidad son limitados y la sospechas y las acusaciones empiezan a volar. ¿Han sido los Hojo o los Shima? ¿O es que acaso el abad, ausente como está siempre, tiene algo que ver?

Suguro no soporta la situación, quiere respuesta y se averigüe de la actitud esquiva de su padre hasta que explota en un arranque en el que se involucrará Rin. ¿Cuáles serán las consecuencias?

El volumen es más corto porque contiene dos extras, pero al final comenzamos a descubrir qué pasó en el pasado, y por qué Fujimoto tenía la komaken, el objeto de culto para los Myoda, que ahora sirve para contener las llamas de Rin.

Los extra están muy bien. El primero trata de una misión en la que Shiemi y Rin c, con ayuda de Yukio, tendrán que detener un tren fantasma. La misión es sencilla hasta que Shiemi y Rin se niegan a dejar que las alarmas atrapadas en su interior desaparezcan. Un extra que además de ser entretenido refuerza la diferencia entre Yukio y Rin de forma efectiva y directa.

El extra de Kuro es más risas que otra cosa, pero me encanta. No es un personaje principal como tal, pero Kuro me pirra y este pequeño extra sirve para entrar más en su relación con Rin, además de echarnos una risas con sus desventuras.

En este volumen la historia continua con la búsqueda de los ojos del Rey Impuro desde Kioto. Rin continúa su entrenamiento con Shura, y podemos ver pequeños avances y también un gran crecimiento en el personaje.

Al igual que en el anterior tomo, el hilo de la historia no avanza mucho, porque se sigue centrando en personajes secundarios como Suguro, Shima y Konekomaru y sus familias. A pesar de esto, la lectura no se vuelve lenta ni aburrida, ya que estos volúmenes le aportan más profundidad a la trama y hacen que conectes más con los personajes.

En mi opinión, en este tomo uno de los personajes destacados fue Konekomaru, ya que vemos más de su personalidad sin estar influenciada por sus amigos.

Nos adentramos en las profundidades de las encrucijadas familiares, las acusaciones y las traiciones.

Al igual que los anteriores me gusto muchísimo y estoy deseando leer el siguiente!

4.5 Stars. The problem with shonen manga is you get a lot of volumes like this one that are just inbetweeners. Nothing big happens but a bunch of little stuff. It isn't that this isn't a good volume, it is, it just is a collection of the minutia.

Love how Rin figured out the candles and the lettle that Bon's dad left him. Still a lot of back history going on but in present circumstances (the best way for it to come out)!

BOTTOM LINE: A middle volume.
