Reader’s Question:
Is Blue Exorcist considered a “Narou” series?
Let’s Talk About “Narou” Series and Blue Exorcist!
You know, the other day I was chatting with a friend about anime and manga, and the topic of “Narou” series came up. It’s funny because I always think about how some series just capture
that unique essence of being born out of a specific platform, like the “Shousetsuka ni Narou” site. I mean, it’s not just about the story; it’s the whole vibe, right? So, when we stumbled upon the question of whether “Blue Exorcist” is a “Narou” series, I couldn’t help but chuckle a bit. My friend, who’s pretty knowledgeable about this stuff, pointed out that “Blue Exorcist” is serialized in Jump Square, which is a whole different realm. I can just picture them, with their glasses sliding down their nose, getting all excited about the distinctions in genres and how “Narou” really refers to stories that originated from that specific online novel platform. It’s like a mini-lecture right in the middle of our snack-fueled anime binge! I remember back when I was living in Osaka, I used to find myself in these deep discussions with my friends at the local izakaya, munching on too much edamame while debating the merits of different manga. It was always a mix of laughter and passionate arguments, especially when someone would try to convince me that their favorite series was the best thing since sliced bread. Those moments are what I treasure the most – it’s more about the connections we make over shared interests, rather than just the stories themselves. And let’s be real, when it comes to “Blue Exorcist,” I have to admit I have a soft spot for its blend of action, humor, and those moments where you just can’t help but root for the characters. But in the end, it’s definitely not a “Narou” series. I guess it’s refreshing to know that there’s a whole spectrum of storytelling out there, even if I do sometimes get a bit mixed up about where everything fits! I’d love to hear your experiences! Have you ever had a funny or memorable argument about a series? Or maybe you have a favorite “Narou” title that you think everyone should check out? Drop your thoughts in the comments! Let’s keep the conversation going!
