Blue Exorcist Season 3 Episode 4 Recap
Arthur A Angel and Lewin Light interrogate an Illuminati spy, hoping to discover what the secret society has planned. Lewin proves he isn’t afraid to sink to whatever depths he has to in order to get the information he needs when he brings in the man’s wife and son and threatens them. Desperate to save his family, the spy reveals that the Illuminati is planning to abduct Izumo.
At the same time, Nemu Takara confronts Izumo and reveals that he has been instructed to ensure the Illuminati kidnaps Izumo. Fortunately, Renzo Izuma intervenes, summoning his powerful familiar demon Yamantaka and defeating Nemu with surprising ease… only to knock Izumo unconscious when she tries to leave and get help.
In a moment that’s sure to throw anime-only Blue Exorcist fans for a loop, Shima is revealed to be a member of the Illuminati. Seconds after this revelation, Seraphim demons loyal to the Illuminati’s leader, Lucifer, appear before every branch of the True Cross Order. Rin and his friends arrive on the scene in time to see the King of Light arrive and formally declare war on the organization.
Powerless in the face of such a powerful demon, Rin can only watch in horror as Shima leaves with an unconscious Izumo. To add insult to injury, the Seraphims explode, killing countless exorcists. Left with no other options, Mephisto Pheles sends Rin and his friends on a dangerous mission to save Izumo.
