Tokyo Ravens Season 2 Story
In the past, Onmyodou was a powerful magic technique that was used in World War I by the Japanese. Years later, a person named Yakou Tsuchimikado performs a ritual called “Taizan Fukun Ritual”, which will help Japan win the war. However, the ritual is not performed correctly and it goes awry and instead is termed the “Great Spiritual Disaster”. This incident haunts Japan to the present date. Additionally, the Onmyo Agency is established by the Japanese government in order to monitor and report any supernatural activity that takes place in the nearby areas. The Agency is also responsible for fighting any demons or spirits that try to enter the real world. In the present time, onmyodou magic has become more simplified, modernized, and refined and is even used in the medicine and technological field.
