A note on Dr. Ten’s styling
Why does he not have anti glare glasses. He’s supposed to be rich. I want to see Off Jumpol’s eyes im sorry I love him I can’t help it
Ass
No ass? I assume it was Dr Ten’s fat ass wallet in the previous shot but they obvs took it out for this scene.
Boy has always been a snazzy dresser
I assume Dr. Ten is just used to dressing like he’s going to a conference. Although I’m shocked and intrigued it doesn’t make Off look older though. He looks believably in his early 20s despite his clothes.

Is Blue Exorcist any good? Idk it has demons and teens so it kinds of reminds me of Black butler and the plot seemed a bit cliched but you seem fond of it recently so maybe theres more to it?
Hello Anon!
“Is Ao no Exorcist any good”?
:))))) And I’m really not kidding.
I’m flattered to see that my tastes seem to be some kind of quality insurance to you in any case! xD Especially when I can enjoy series like Killing Stalking (dudes with issues killing people) but also like Amaama to Inazuma (daddy and daughter cooking and being happy) lmao!
It’s funny you’d mention Kuro as a comparison by the way though, since I basically started the two manga at the same time (6 years ago or so) because I also thought that they were of a similar genre, while in fact they evolved very differently.
Seriously though, Kuro =/= Ao no Exorcist, even when it comes to the most basic aspect of the two stories, which is “demon”:
in Kuro, demon = actual scary beings made of darkness after human souls. More a link with occidental religions (like Christianity) imo.
in AnE, demon = “yokai”/Japanese folklore relating to demons and spirits as a very general way to describe them to someone who doesn’t read the series. You have cute ones, scary ones, strong ones, weak ones, etc.
also Ciel (Kuroshitsuji) = human who sold his soul
while Rin (and Yukio, AnE) = actual sons of Satan, aka half-demons.
Oooh and:
Kuroshitsuji -> you’ve heard of the theory with our!Ciel pretending to be his twin (not seen so far within 24 volumes)?
well in AnE, Rin has a living and very recognizable twin brother, who’s Yukio (and who is basically as angsty/angry as Ciel, which might be the only common point between the two series xD)
As for the plot being cliché… hm, well maybe initially it can sound like so depending on the summary you read, but from the moment Mephisto Pheles introduces himself (ch2/ep2), you know you’re in for a pretty interesting story and honestly AnE never disappointed me. xD Even the arc I liked the less so far never had me not following the monthly chapters.
So it’s really up to you Anon, but if you like Kuroshitsuji, I say try AnE. Maybe watch the first two episodes of s1? It will give you a good idea of what to expect and then, depending on if you like it or not…… well, I can explain to you how the two anime seasons work in regards to the canon story if you want to keep going. :)
Here are a few more reasons to start AnE if you’re interested:
a really diversified cast
a lot of “omg wut” plot twists
almost all the characters introduced in the story get a specific role and a development arc
great pacing overall for the storytelling (no need to wait 5ever for the entire cast to know who Rin is even though it’s initiallyobviously a secret)
important dead characters get as much development as living characters thanks to flashbacks (which is not something I’ve seen often in other series)
no need for ship wars, romantic crushes between characters are made rather clear and don’t just remain background material, even if we don’t know yet how it’s going to end
also the art @Kato Kazue-sensei
Aaand that’s all I can think of right now :)
Seriously though, it’s good and even currently better than Kuroshitsuji, since the chapters are released monthly but the pace is great, all the characters are getting a development, there is no plot convenience and we’re currently getting answers about the main plot (with ~90 chapters) so… A+ 15/10 would recommend! :D
I hope it helps! Have a nice day Anon :)

Okay I can’t make it thru Cooking Crush without taking a million screen shots and having 5 million thoughts so apologies for the spam
So Dr Ten is trying to have lucid dreams. Using a metronome is good way to snap yourself into control. He misses his mother that much? Dedicated.
Once again Dr. Ten’s best trait is his die hard loyalty he’s already so down bad for Prem it’s refreshing for an offgun story (although personal opinion is Sean fell for White first he was just in denial Ten is full on but oblivious)
Can someone be cuter than Ten?
Oh yeah Gun I mean Prem is very cute. Side note there is a lot of Gun’s personality in Prem. I’ll get back to you guys on details later but even more so than Third or Rome I think… Prem is like Gun not too extreme little Sassy Talented but not showy Protective a bit tsundere
Can I also have a little chef named Prem please I also need that pork roast it looks so good
These screenshots make me want to do art just incredibly beautiful
