The Shueisha-published Blue Exorcist manga by Kazue Katou started its serialization in Jump Square in 2009 and has been collected into 30 tankoubon volumes as of January 2024. Viz Media describes it as:

Raised by Father Fujimoto, a famous exorcist, Rin Okumura never knew his real father. One day a fateful argument with Father Fujimoto forces Rin to face a terrible truth—the blood of the demon lord Satan runs in Rin’s veins! Rin swears to defeat Satan, but doing that means entering the mysterious True Cross Academy and becoming an exorcist himself. Can Rin fight demons and keep his infernal bloodline a secret? It won’t be easy, especially when drawing his father’s sword releases the demonic power within him!

The first two seasons aired in 2011 and 2017, while a movie was released in 2012. The previous anime were produced by A-1 Pictures.
