New Release: Volume 1 of Ochibore Exorcist's Prescription Manga Is Finally Here
Today is quite a big day for manga lovers as Volume 1 of Itsuki Kono's latest work, Ochibore Exorcist's Prescription, has officially been released this February 27th. This series is being published by Micro Magazine's Ride Comics, and for those who didn't know, this is actually a comic adaptation of the very popular novel written by Noel Tai. It is really great to see such stories getting a proper visual treatment because the plot is honestly quite unique compared to your usual shonen or supernatural stuff.
A Story of a Fallen Exorcist and a Forbidden Healing Power
The story focuses on a young girl named Sakura. Now, Sakura was born into a very prestigious family of exorcists, but things didn't go as planned for her. Instead of having the talent to destroy or banish evil spirits like everyone else in her clan, she was born with a very strange power—the ability to heal demons. Because of this, she is treated like the "culprit" or the black sheep of the family. Even though her clan looks down on her, Sakura is just too kind-hearted. Whenever she comes across a weakened demon, she simply cannot leave it alone and ends up using her powers to help.
However, there is a very dark side to this gift. Unbeknownst to her, every time she heals a demon, her own body starts accumulating impurities. It is like she is taking their pain onto herself, and eventually, she reaches a point where she can't take it anymore. This is exactly when she meets Karasu, a mysterious demon from the Eternal Night Country. Karasu has the ability to eat these impurities, and he offers Sakura a special contract. This is where the real journey of growth and rebirth begins for our fallen exorcist girl and her demonic companion.
