A concept art of Twin Star Exorcist, from Arc of Adashino Benio 2.
Twin Star Exorcists (双星の陰陽師 Sōsei no Onmyōji?) is a term referring to the male-female exorcist destined to give birth to the Miko. The Miko is the child born of the Twin Star Exorcists, and is prophesized to Exorcise all the impurity of the world, thus ending the battle between exorcists and impurities.
The true nature of what the Twin Star Exorcists are, was intentionally hidden to the chosen ones initially, and would eventually be revealed by Chinu almost every generation.
History[]
In the current day (the start of the series) the chief exorcist discovers through divination, that the Twin Star Exorcists exist and that their names are Rokuro Enmado and Benio Adashino
Candidates[]
All the female Twin Star Exorcists (Great Yin) are descended from Doman Ashiya. The first great yin was chinu who was created by Doman. Tired of battles Chinu decided to create a village with Sakanashi it was later known as the outcast valley. Chinu fell in love with Sakanashi and procreated with him. Later when great yang was about to appear in the outcast valley she revealed her fate as the great yin to Sakanashi, Angry Sakanashi felt betrayed and disposes chinu by chopping her head off. Most great yin have failed to awaken as great yin and the few who did awaken failed to perform their duty as twin stars.
The current Great Yin was born as a twin in two equal halves - Benio and Yuto. When benio lost her powers she was half awakened as the great yin through chinu's ritual of removing her fake human outer-skin. After yuto convinces her to rejoin the battle with Rokuro, She merges with the other half of the great yin in yuto's soul and thus Benio Completely Awakens as The Great Yin.
All the male Twin Star exorcists (Great Yang) are clones Birthed by Abe no Seimei in tubes on the top of kegare king's head. The first great yang appeared 800 years ago was slained by Sakanashi and his followers (descendants) thus the soul of great yang was sealed in outcast valley (magano). The vessels of great yang as infants were killed by sutara and his ancestors during the time of their birth, few managed to escape from magano and Sutara's ancestors , they first ended up in Outcast valley in search of the great yang's soul and merge with it in order to awaken as the great yang but failed to do so.
The soul of great yang was later stolen by Sakanashi and a part of great yang's soul was given to Yuto which was later recieved by Rokuro at the time of yuto's demise. It was ultimately freed by Arima from Sakanashi after he exploded himself along with Sakanashi. Rokuro is the first candidate after 800 years to fully awaken as the Great Yang.
