The Boy Who Hunts Akuma (Japanese: アクマを狩る少年, - Akuma o karu shōnen) is the first episode of the anime series D.Gray-man.

[edit] Plot

The series opens with a narration about the war between the exorcists and the Earl of the Millenium. Allen Walker and his golem Timcanpy have recently arrived in London, planning to visit the Black Order Headquarters. Meanwhile, Officers Moore and Charles are investigating a supposedly haunted church. While searching this abandoned building, Moore and Charles are separated due to Allen's "kidnapping" of Moore. After he is handcuffed to a chair, Allen tries to explain his situation to Moore when Charles is suddenly killed. Since Moore was unconscious due to the attack, Allen is suspected of Charles's death. The exorcist attempts to tell the chief that an Akuma killed Charles and that he would like to help. However, due to the disbelief of the chief, Allen and Moore are then placed under house arrest while the rest of the police unit investigate the church themselves. During his stay at Moore's home, Allen meets Moore's brother-in-law Mark who happens to be the Akuma that killed Charles and countless others. Upon investigating, he finds out that Moore's sister Crea is the soul entrapped in the Akuma (which later kills off the police units excluding Moore) and later destroys it.

[edit] Trivia

• The special ending features Allen's arrival at Headquarters.
