SHOUNEN ONMYOUJI (SEIMEINOMAGO)

SEIMEINOMAGO

RATING: 4/5

CHAPTERS: 1-26 (END)

AUDIO: JAPANESE

SUBTITLE: CHINESE/ENGLISH

INTRODUCTIONS:

In the Heian period, there existed practitioners of mystical powers called onmyouji. One famous onmyouji is the legendary Abe no Seimei. This anime tells the story behind Seimei’s grandson Masahiro and his monster like partner Mokkun (Real name is Guren). Guren is a Touda - Shikigami guardian in an animal form. He looked like a cross between a rabbit and a cat.

Masahiro might be inexperience but according to the Seimei, Masahiro’s spiritual power is strong enough to be the successor of Seimei. This anime apparently sounded like a shounen anime but mostly based on the boy’s endless effort to prove his best. To know more about the story, you have to see the anime yourself. I won’t spoil the storyline at all.
