Exquisite Blood: The Heretic Onmyoji

Exquisite Blood: The Heretic Onmyoji, launched in 2025 by Square Enix Manga & Books, is a compact three-issue series that reimagines the classic onmyoji tradition through a dark, supernatural lens. The story follows a disgraced exorcist navigating a world where ancient spirits and modern corruption collide, blending Japanese folklore with visceral action. While its brief run leaves little room for sprawling arcs, the series stands out for its striking visual style and Square Enix’s commitment to bringing fresh, creator-driven manga-influenced comics to a Western audience.
