Blue Exorcist , the gripping anime based on Kazue Kato's bestselling manga, has enthralled fans with its supernatural battles, complex characters, and emotional storytelling. With the conclusion of Blue Exorcist: The Blue Night Saga (Season 5) in March 2025, fans are eagerly speculating about the possibility of Blue Exorcist Season 6 . While no official announcement has been made, the anime's recent momentum and the manga's ongoing narrative provide plenty of clues. Here's everything we know so far about Blue Exorcist Season 6. Blue Exorcist Season 6 Release Date Speculation
Blue Exorcist has historically had long gaps between seasons—six years between Season 1 (2011) and Season 2 ( Kyoto Saga , 2017), and seven years before Season 3 (2024). However, the back-to-back releases of Seasons 4 and 5 indicate a faster production pace. Based on this trend and the need for sufficient manga material, analysts predict that Blue Exorcist Season 6 could premiere in late 2026 or early 2027 if greenlit by late 2025. Expected Cast for Blue Exorcist Season 6
If Blue Exorcist Season 6 is produced, the core voice cast is expected to return, maintaining continuity with Studio VOLN's recent seasons. The confirmed cast from The Blue Night Saga includes: Nobuhiko Okamoto (Japanese) / Bryce Papenbrook (English) as Rin Okumura , the fiery son of Satan determined to become an exorcist.
Jun Fukuyama (Japanese) / Johnny Yong Bosch (English) as Yukio Okumura , Rin's twin brother and a skilled exorcist grappling with his own struggles.
Hiroshi Kamiya (Japanese) / Kyle Hebert (English) as Mephisto Pheles , the enigmatic head of True Cross Academy.
Akeno Watanabe (Japanese) / Wendee Lee (English) as Shura Kirigakure , a senior exorcist with ties to the Okumura brothers.
Kana Hanazawa (Japanese) / Christine Marie Cabanos (English) as Shiemi Moriyama, a kind-hearted tamer and Rin's friend. Blue Exorcist Season 6 Plot: What to Expect
Blue Exorcist Season 6 is expected to adapt the Of One Cloth arc, which follows the events of The Blue Night Saga . The latter explored the tragic backstory of Rin and Yukio's parents, Yuri Egin and Satan, revealing the origins of the Blue Night—a catastrophic event where Satan possessed and killed numerous exorcists. Season 5 concluded with Rin returning to the present to confront Yukio, who is struggling with his own demonic heritage and the allure of the Illuminati, led by Lucifer.
The Of One Cloth arc dives deeper into the brothers' conflict, focusing on Yukio's internal turmoil and Rin's efforts to save him. The arc introduces new challenges at True Cross Academy, including escalated tensions with the Illuminati and revelations about the Okumura family's past. Expect intense action, emotional character development, and further exploration of the relationship between Assiah (the human world) and Gehenna (the demon realm). The arc also delves into the Exwires' growth as they face new demonic threats and personal dilemmas, maintaining the series' signature blend of supernatural battles and heartfelt moments.
