Viz Media is releasing the manga in English, and it describes the story:
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 manga inspired a 25-episode television anime series in 2011, and the Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Saga television anime premiered in 2017 and aired for 12 episodes.
The franchise also includes several novels and a series of stage plays.
