There is a new Shonen Onmyoji Manga on Comic-Walker by Sorakura Shikiji and Itou Natsuo.
時は平安。13歳の昌浩は、稀代の陰陽師・安倍晴明の孫。まだまだ半人前の昌浩は祖父を超えるため、相棒の物の怪・もっくんにからかわれながら、修行に励む日々である。<br> そんな中、内裏が炎上するという騒ぎが起き、昌浩はもっくんとともに独自の調査を開始するが、裏には異形の影が潜んでい
It is based on the light novel with the same name written by Mitsuru Yuuki and illustrated by Sakura Asagi that was first released in 2001. This is not to be confused with the other Shonen Onmyoji Manga written by Hinako Seta in 2005. There was an anime series that aired from October 3, 2006 to March 13, 2007.
Here is a translation of the synopsis:
Times are peaceful. 13-year-old Masahiro is the grandson of the rare Onmyoji, Abe no Seimei. In order to surpass his grandfather, Masahiro, who is still half a man, spends his days training hard while being teased by his partner, the mononoke Mokkun. In the midst of this, there is a commotion that the Imperial Palace is on fire, and Masahiro and Mokkun start their own investigation, but there is a strange shadow lurking behind the scenes... Can the poor Onmyoji save the capital!?
Masahiro is the son of Seimei's son, Abe no Yoshimasa [1] and Mokkun is also called Guren but his real name is Toda, which is the Japanese's name for Tengshe (騰蛇) from Chinese Mythology [2]. I also think the Chinese Equivalent to a mononoke (物の怪) is a wuguai (物怪). Anyway, Masahiro also has a love interest named Fujiwara no Akiko.
