Editor's P/S
As a die-hard fan of the Blue Exorcist series, I am thrilled beyond words about the upcoming third season. The trailer and story visual revealed at Jump Festa 2024 have only amplified my excitement and anticipation. The Shimane Illuminati arc is one of my favorites from the manga, and I can't wait to see it come to life on screen. The new additions to the cast are also incredibly exciting, and I have no doubt that they will bring their characters to life with the same passion and dedication as the original voice actors.
The trailer offered a tantalizing glimpse into the upcoming season, showcasing key events and introducing new characters. The animation looks stunning, and the voice acting is top-notch. I particularly enjoyed the lighthearted moment shared by the Okumura brothers and their friends in the new story visual. It's great to see that even amidst the intense battles and supernatural drama, there will still be moments of camaraderie and friendship.
