So, how exactly did Blue Exorcist come to be? It all started from the mind of manga artist, Kazue Kato. Kazue Kato wanted to be an animator in her early years. This did not sit well with her father, who thought that she wasn't serious enough with that dream and that she should go to college.
Well, Kazue Kato dropped out of college either way, beginning her career as a manga artist by creating several short series. Her first big manga was none other than Blue Exorcist. Blue exorcist first ran in Jump Square magazine on April 4th, 2009 in japan. Like most other manga getting published at the time, its initial interest was low. However, due to Kazue Kato's great art style and excellent storytelling ability, popularity started to surge rapidly.
This culminated in the seventh volume of the manga series selling one million copies. Blue Exorcist was officially the first manga published in Jump Square to break this record.
