Jun Fukuyama's performance is the anchor the more ambitious scenes need. Available now — press play and find out why people keep recommending it.

Blue Exorcist Season 2 arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. What makes Blue Exorcist Season 2 work is that the ideas never crowd out the people having them. The ExWire of True Cross Academy are beset with shock and fear in the aftermath of discovering that one of their own classmates, Rin Okumura, is the son of Satan. But for the moment, they have more pressing concerns than that of Rin's parentage: the left eye of the Impure King, a powerful demon, has been stolen from the academy's Deep Keep. After an attempt is made to steal the right eye in Kyoto as well, Rin and the other ExWires are sent to investigate the mystery behind the Impure King and the ultimate goal of the thief. Jun Fukuyama and Keiji Fujiwara lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was aired in 2017. The world-building is meticulous enough to sustain multiple rewatches, with details early on that only make sense later. It rarely drops the ball, and when it does, it recovers fast.

Sci-fi fans who want ideas alongside the spectacle will find Blue Exorcist Season 2 genuinely rewarding. It rewards viewers regardless of what else is in their watch history. It is a manageable watch, easy to fit into a single week. Jun Fukuyama grounds the bigger ideas in something human. Once you are in, you will want to talk about it.
