Summary: The world consists of two dimensions joined as one, like a mirror. The first is the world in which the humans live, Assiah. The other is the world of demons, Gehenna. Ordinarily, travel between the two, and indeed any kind of contact between the two, is impossible. However the demons can pass over into this world by possessing anything that exists within it. Satan is the god of demons, but there's one thing that he doesn't have and that's a container in the human world that is powerful enough to hold him! For that purpose, he created Okumura Rin, his son from a human woman, but will his son agree to his plans, or will he become something else...? After killing Rin's guardian Father Fujimoto in an attempt to bring Rin back to the Demon world, it led to Rin's journey on becoming an Exorcist in order to defeat Satan.

This is an adaptation of the manga for any of the manga readers so even though it starts similarly it has a completely different ending. Newcomers I suggest the anime before reading the manga just because the manga (for me) is much better than the anime
The story as I said is similar to the manga however there are subtle differences that manga readers will notice throughout the entire series. The anime contains more fight scenes in the first part than the manga which I thought was pretty awesome and the anime has included more comedy episodes in the series.
The comedy does follow it through most of the way though it doesn't take a huge turn to the dark side like Code Geass or Guilty Crown does it seems to borderline in the middle of light and dark which isn't a very easy feat.
The music is good. The first opening song "Core Pride" by UVERworld did crack me up. One of the lyrics was "Life is a bitch so if it's easy you're doing it wrong." hilarious I thought.
Anywho the dialogue is good it has a number of my favourite voice actors so I was uber happy.

In the end those who like demon action, hopelessly awkward characters and hilarious comedy then I recommend it to you. Readers of the manga it is worth checking this anime out but I find that its not as good as the manga.
