Did he really had to re live this moment 😭😭

[somethingshieet]

Blue Night Saga comes to an end...

Getting to see Shiro raising the twins is so adorable.

Seeing the s1 scenes in the new animation really feels like wow it's been so many years since s1 aired...

Rin finally appreciates more of Shiro as a father and exorcist makes me tear up so much 😭 (Little Rin and Yukio sleeping is too cute aaaa)

And we're finally here! Rin finally sees Yukio again

It has been a great season, and hopefully "Of One Cloth" arc anime will come soon (when the manga is way ahead ofc)

Gonna miss AoEx Sundays so much 🥹

"So you're Shiemi's familiar, huh?" Rinka asked. "Be sure to look after her!" Nee cheered, in what Rinka could only assume was agreement. "And don't worry if you get confused," Rinka said, "-not to brag, but I've been a familiar my whole life, so I'm kind of an expert. You can totally ask me for advice!" Nee cheered again. Rinka had no idea if it understood what he was saying. Shiemi giggled. "What?" Rinka glanced over at her. "What's so funny?" "No," Shiemi smiled, "-it's just... you're only fifteen, Rinka." "Fifteen years is plenty of experience!" Rinka protested- but that only made Shiemi giggle more. "Hey! Don't laugh! I'm serious!"

(or: Rinka desperately wants to come across as a cool senpai, but neither Kuro nor Nee understand this concept on any fundamental level. Also, it turns out living a double life is hard!! Who knew?)

Blue Exorcist Character Guidebook 2: Mephisto

Info on Mephisto from the new guidebook! Each character has a profile followed by relevant questions from fans, and then there's an interview section later where Kazue Katoh gives commentary on each major character and each manga arc. I have more guidebook than time, so I'm skipping the parts that are just like...summarizing who he is and stuff. So this will mostly be fan questions and Katoh's commentary

Biographical info

Gender: Male Age: (°w°) Rank/Titles: Director of True Cross Academy and head of the exorcism cram school, Honorary Knight for the Knights of the True Cross, King of Time Anniversary [T/N Katoh gives demons these in lieu of a birthday]: August 28 Blood type: ( ʹ - ʼ ) Height: 195 cm (184 cm without the "horn") Weight: 74 kg Skills and interests: movies, manga, anime, games, music, toys, miscellaneous subcultures

Fan Q&A

How do members of the Knights of the True Cross usually find out that Mephisto is a demon king?

I think some people might find out from books, the internet, etc even before they become exorcists. They do publish demon field guides that you can find at regular libraries, and Mephisto seems like the type to mention it in online interviews. Rin was the only one who didn't know.

How long has he had his current body?

About 200 years.

Which media from Assiah has had the greatest impact on him?

I imagine he would have been shocked the first time he saw a cinematograph.

Mephisto really likes all sorts of entertainment; has he ever tried making something himself?

Demons in general (not just Mephisto) tend to be bad at creative pursuits, though there are exceptions. Mephisto has a certain respect for human creativity.

Why is he so fond of Beelzebub?

Beelzebub just kind of struck a chord with him. Meanwhile, Beelzebub also likes being spoiled by Mephisto.

Which other demon kings get along with Mephisto the best?

In order: 1. Beelzebub 2. Amaimon 3. Egyn 4. Astaroth 5. Iblis 6. Lucifer [T/N it took me like an entire minute to work out that Azazel is the one missing from this list. Presumably because he's a rock]

Has Mephisto ever altered the past?

He sure does say a lot of things that imply that! [T/N: Katoh. Katoh. Katoh.]

How rich is Mephisto exactly?

He's actually one of the world's top businessmen and investors. His total assets are probably over one trillion yen [T/N: Jesus f*ck][T/N: that's about US$6.7 billion]

Author interview

Mephisto is a character who can solve just about anything; does that make him hard to write? Honestly, he's super easy to deploy. Mephisto has the plot in the palm of his hand and can fix stuff behind the scenes; he's the one pulling the strings. For adaptations and spinoffs, I just say "if you need to fill in a plot hole, make it Mephisto's fault" (laughs). But I do think it's dangerous to overdo it.

He even took on a sort of narrator role in chapter 44, didn't he? Around Volume 10, I was trying to treat each chapter like its own self-contained oneshot. Mephisto didn't even feel out of place as an omniscient narrator for one chapter, and for me that really drove home what a convenient character he is. Though I'm always wondering when and how to show Mephisto's own serious motives and inner thoughts, since he does fall into that eternal comic narrator role.

He can suddenly turn terrifying just when you were thinking he was comical. Hidden depths. Fundamentally he's on the humans' side, and he's often in charge of comic relief, but I do want to show his demonic side too. Same with the familiars; I want to portray the demons as something humans are afraid of.

RIN FUCKING FRY AN EGG IN YOUR BARE FLAMING HAND PLEASE AND THANK YOU

epic dish idea but unfortunately it's not kuro approved

[somethingshieet]

Kato Sensei handing out free therapy as usual and telling us that self-sacrifice is not the solution

exhibit a is shiemi hating rins disregard for his own (physical) limits

exhibit b is rin hating shiemi's belief of only being worthy if she's helpful

[somethingshieet]

Getting a bit more on Shiemi's backstory was my favorite part of the story, it answered some questions I've had for a long time. I'm really curious how this is going to play out, especially with how her father died and how it was previously hinted that Jeremiah was involved in some way.

Shiemi's grandmother continues to be a interesting character. I'm not sure how Kato's trying to write her totally, but I'm sure we'll get more. At this point her wanting to go off and retire like nothing has happened, is frustrating in different ways. People soften with age, especially when it comes to their grandchildren, but the way she treated Yuri has always stood out to me.

Pushing along the birthing process absolutely is why Yuri died in the first place. She wasn't doing so hot even then, but making pass her placenta like Shiemi's grandmother did was totally what did the twin's mother in. Given how cold she seems to be, it's clear this was her way of resolving things where it concerned Yuri. If she's dead, they don't have to worry about Satan trying to come back to her.

Meanwhile she's happy to run off to Japan and retire with her own daughter and grand daughter. Not to say her losing her son in law or others isn't as bad, but I dunno. I can't wait for more on this lady to be honest, and her whole family. Especially Shiemi.
