Twin Star Exorcists, v. 9 by Yoshiaki Sukeno

Twin Star Exorcists, v. 9 by Yoshiaki Sukeno - 208 pages

Rukoru and Benio conclude their fight against the kegar Hijimaru to save Sayo, however, there are unintended consequences to their battle.

This is the latest volume in the series.  It was interesting to see the series change as it did and look forward to seeing if the author continues with the current storyline or reverts back to the original.  It was very interesting to read the author's note and discover that this change in the series actually brings it closer to his original vision for the series.

Twin Star Exorcists, v. 7 by Yoshiaki Sukeno

Twin Star Exorcists, v. 7 by Yoshiaki Sukeno - 202 pages

Rokuro is finally going through his Ascertainment Test and the spirit possessing him is a huge surprise!  Then Sayo is kidnapped by two Basura and it is up to Rokuro, Benio, Shimon, and Mayura to rescue her.

I am loving this series.  The only bad thing is that I have now caught up with the published books and will have to wait for the new books to come out.

Twin Star Exorcists, v. 5-6 by Yoshiaki Sukeno

Twin Star Exorcists, v. 5 by Yoshiaki Sukeno - 208 pages
Twin Star Exorcists, v. 6 by Yoshiaki Sukeno - 216 pages

Rokuro and Benio continue to fight Yuto but they must train harder to get the skills to beat him.  We also learn of Rokuro's beginnings at Hinatsuki before jumping forward in time after two years of training to see if they can pass the examination to take the fight to Yuto.

I am really enjoying this series.  The pacing of the reveals is great leaving you wanting to know more.  The growth of the characters is also good.  I'm looking forward to reading more in the series.

Twin Star Exorcists, v. 3-4 by Yoshiaki Sukeno

Twin Star Exorcists, v. 3 by Yoshiaki Sukeno - 202 pages
Twin Star Exorcists, v. 4 by Yoshiaki Sukeno - 200 pages

We continue the story of Rokuro and Benio as we discover the truth behind the Hinatsuki Tragedy and the subsequent attack against its instigator.

While I'm still enjoying the series, I am getting a little bored of all the posturing by the characters.

Twin Star Exorcists, v.1 by Yoshiaki Sukeno

Twin Star Exorcists, v. 1 by Yoshiaki Sukeno - 208 pages

Rokuro wants nothing to do with being an exorcist.  Benio's whole life is devoted to exorcism.  Then it is decreed that they are the Twin Star Exorcists who will marry and have a child who will be the most powerful exorcist of all time.  Too bad they hate each other.

This is the first volume in the series.  It was fairly interesting to read.  They did a good job of keeping you reading by not revealing too much of either Rokuro or Benio's past while dropping hints.  I'm intrigued enough that I started reading the second volume.
