Onmyouji

In the Heian capital, Abe no Seimei lives as its most renowned onmyouji, a man who understands spirits, curses, and the forces hiding behind incidents the court cannot explain. His cool and mysterious nature does not prevent an unlikely friendship with Minamoto no Hiromasa, a straightforward nobleman who prefers confronting a problem to circling around it.

Men and women of the court bring them cases that may begin with a strange illness, a sound in the night, or jealousy that refuses to fade, only to reveal a demon, spirit, or curse born from powerful human emotion. Seimei uses his knowledge to unravel the supernatural cause, while Hiromasa often brings a more compassionate understanding of the people caught inside it. Case by case, they learn that the most dangerous things haunting the capital are not always the beings beyond humanity, but the desires that summon them.
