You may remember that we told you that KEKKAISHI was available to view on Hulu.com? Well, even if you missed that tidbit it doesn’t matter! KEKKAISHI will soon be coming to Adult Swim!

Here’s a recap of the story behind the show:

Yoshimori Sumimura is a junior high school student at Karasumori Academy, which is built upon the Karasumori grounds. By night, Yoshimori follows the tradition passed down through generations and fulfills his destiny as the twenty-second “kekkaishi” of the Sumimura clan. But by day, Yoshimori’s got other demons to contend with, like an obsession with cake making and a seriously crotchety grandfather! Yoshimori’s pretty neighbor, childhood friend and rival, Tokine Yukimura, is also a “kekkaishi,” but their families are caught up in a feud over who is the true practitioner of the art. Protecting ordinary people from the ever-present danger of the Karasumori grounds, Yoshimori will continue to grow stronger as he battles the forces of evil again tonight!

In case you aren’t familiar, the show is based upon the manga series by Yellow Tanabe. The deal that has just been struck sees Adult Swim broadcasting 52 episodes of the show on their channel, which will begin on May 29th (so plenty of time to mark your calendar!).

William Germain, Director, Programming & Music Sales, VIZ Media:

“Kekkaishi spotlights compelling cool characters, in an intense yet fun-filled supernatural action adventure saga. It possesses all of the hallmarks of great anime!” says William. We are very excited to add KEKKAISHI to the Adult Swim anime lineup for U.S. fans to enjoy.”
