A few months ago, I accidentally watched this anime on the TV channel; 8TV. It do attracted my attention. I however didn't follow up every episode as I was always forgot to catch up XD.. I heard from my friends that this anime is hardly found anywhere on the shop to be sold. Last Thursday, I went to Queensbay to buy movie ticket, I decided to drop in at Hong Kong Video Shop. Beyond my expectation, I found this anime in DVD format and bought it. =D
THE SUMMARY
During Heian period, there is a person named Masahiro Abe who is a grandson of the legendary Onmyouji Seimei Abe. He however lost his sixth sense and spiritual sight which allows him to see the spirits because his grandpa saw his spiritual sight was too strong for his young age and decided to seal it away for his own safety. Until Masahiro meets a cat/dog-like monster, Mokkun, he then gains the spiritual sight and begins exterminating the evil spirit.
Little by little, Masahiro reveals his true power and his innate power is not as powerful as his grandpa. He somehow hates being compared with Seimei and always being provoked by Seimei on minor mistake causing Masahiro has to name his grandpa as "The Old Fox Demon". Hence, he decides to surpass his grandpa to be the best onmyouji. Thus, Mokkun as his proctector and other Shikigami slowly starting to acknowledge him as Seimei's real heir and successor.
He tries his best to protects both youkai and people and stop the evil demons who had taken up residence surrounding the imperial capital from the unknown land in Western. He also keeps his promise of protecting the Princess Akiko of the Fujiwara Clan who is being targeted by the evil demons.
KYUUKI ARC
Kyuuki, a winged tiger from the West has been forced to evacuate to Japan after being heavily injured by another demon. He desires to eat Princess Akiko to replenish his spirit powers and heal his wounds. Thanks to him and an army of demons from the unknown Land in West, Masahiro begins harnessing the true power of the onmyouji to defeat them.
KAZANE ARC
A mysterious woman summons the vengeful spirit to wreck havoc in the imperial capital as the vengeful spirit tries to drain Yukinari's life. At same time, that mysterious woman appears to kill Seimei. From here, the event from fifty years ago begins to reveal and Masahiro learns the real truth about Guren. Someone is trying to open the gate to the underworld so he captures and controls Guren to unlock the gate to the underworld. Masahiro has to undergo the ultimate test.

What I feel amazed about this serial anime is those character development as following in the story, the characteristic attributes shown in their own perception is getting deeper and stronger as they acts as protectors to each others...@_@ and getting their relationship strongly bonded and binded. Sounds like they have affection towards each others like they are not brothers O_O but it's not shonen incest =P
Besides that, the magic and fights are pretty good and fun. Masahiro may is not so powerful as his grandpa is. However, he still strive to improve and enhance his skills to get through victories with the aid of Guren/Mokkun or/and other Shikigami.
Oh, saying about Mokkun, he is really mischievous little creature. When he is in a disgust of Mokkun, he is such jerk, always playing trick on people who is unable to see him. What's more is that he only plays trick on people who messes with Masahiro. That's so cuute when his actions irritate Masahiro!!
Go buy this anime and you will enjoy this anime for sure ^_^
