About Akuma-kun (ONA)

If you are hunting for a new supernatural series, Akuma-kun (ONA) (Akuma-kun (Shin Anime)) deserves a look (2023). The setup goes like this. At its core: Satou, a company employee at the world's largest electronics company, is called upon by his boss to tutor his only son in exchange for a high ranking position within the organization, things couldn't have been peachier. At least, that's what he thought...

Also worth knowing: Little did he know that his student was Ichirou Matsushita, a young boy with the mind of a genius and a terrifying hidden agenda. It doesn't take long for Satou to realize that he is the second home tutor in as many weeks that has been sent to teach the little boy. What's even more unnerving is that the previous Tutor's whereabouts appear to be a mystery...

In a supernatural series like this, spirits, curses and unexplained forces shape both mood and plot. This one is best suited to fans of eerie, otherworldly settings.

The supernatural focus matters here: spirits, curses and unexplained forces shape both mood and plot. Released in 2023, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
