Blue Exorcist has had its latest english-language issue (#21) out for a while now. The anime and movie are also nothing new to fans of the series, having debuted in 2011 and 2012 respectively. However, for everyone, there is always a first time, and Blue Exorcist is no exception. If you have never heard of this series, it is excellent manga, definitely above average, and well worth the time to get acquainted with. The first volume is in our list this week. By contrast, Goblin Slayer also appears, but that one…man. I don’t know. Many items for every taste below. Take a look!
