[edit] Story

Abe no Masahiro is the grandson of the great onmyouji Abe no Seimei, who passed his teachings on to his grandson. Masahiro lost his sixth sense and the ability to see spirits because his grandfather sealed it away for his own safety, but with Mokkun as his guide, he works to become the best onmyouji ever!
Little by little, Masahiro reveals his true power, with Mokkun as his protector and the other shikigami slowly starting to acknowledge him as Seimei`s succesor. Trying hard to become the best onmyouji, to surpass his grandfather-"the old racoon" or "tanuki"- he has to stop the foreign demons who came from China and keep his promise of protecting the princess of the Fujiwara Clan.
After defeating the demons from China, Masahiro returns back to his normal routine. However, a mysterious woman name Kazane comes and summons a vengeful spirit to reck havok in the capital. It is later discovered that her purpose is to kill Masahiro's grandfather. Now Seimei and Masahiro have to deal with this new opponent.

[edit] Characters

Masahiro Abe

A Onmyouji in training. After he met Mokkun (Touda/Guren), he decided to follow his family's footsteps and started solving various mysteries occurring around him. He is friendly and kind to both youkai and people, although he is sometimes cocky and clumsy, but according to Seimei, he is the only one who can succeed him. He hates to be called "Seimei's grandson" and trains hard to surpass his grandfather.

Guren/Touda/Mokkun

Mokkun is the animal (cat/dog like creature) form of Touda named by Masahiro. Guren is the name given by Seimei, but his true name is Touda. He is one of twelve Shikigami serving Seimei. Although he teases Masahiro time to time, he cares a lot about Masahiro and he is willing to protect him with his life. In his past, for some reason he tried to kill Seimei and because of this incident Seimei's Shikigamis (like Seiryuu) doesn't seem to trust him. It is also mentioned that Guren is one of most feared summon Gods, and from this it is said that Masahiro, who doesn't fear Guren, is compatible to be Seimei's successor.

Abe no Seimei/Seimei Abe (young&old)

The greatest Onmyouji in in the history of Japan, Abe no Seimei is the grandfather of Masahiro. He has Twelve shikigami under his command and is able to transfer his soul (which is in his younger form) outside of his old aged body, but this makes his body vulnerable. He teases Masahiro to push him further in his journey (which is kind of like a reverse psychology) and helps him out when he is in trouble. Masahiro calls Seimei "Old raccoon" when he is angry after Seimei's lecture/teasing of Masahiro's performance.

Fujiwara no Akiko

Akiko is a princess Masahiro encounters in the second episode in the Imperial Palace after his coming of age and saves her when a demon attack her. She and Masahiro become good friends. Akiko is special because she is one of the few princesses to have the Kenki ability(the ability to see demons). Because of this many demons attacks her often so Masahiro must save her on various occasions. Later she will live with Masahiro in his home.
