About this show

While the day belongs to humans, the night belongs to yokai, supernatural creatures that thrive on human fear. Caught between these worlds is Rikuo Nura. He's three-quarters human, but his grandfather is none other than Nurarihyon, the supreme commander of the Nura clan, a powerful yokai consortium.

The plot is great if you are interested in supernatural and demon/yokai/youkai stories, like myself. Though Rikuo seems a little overpowered it gets better as the story progresses, that I promise you.

Anime leaves off on a petty big note . But the show itself is enjoyable, lots of entertaining characters, most of which are only side characters. If you enjoy the anime I'd highly recommend checking out the manga to finish the story.
