Kekkaishi Episode 1 English Dubbed Episode Description: Yoshimori Sumimura is a kekkaishi (barrier magic user) and reluctant heir to his family. Together with his neighbor Tokine Yukimura, he is responsible for defending their school, Karasumori Academy, from ayakashi (demons) attracted to the spiritual energies of its site, by using kekkai (barrier magic). When they are found chatting, Shigemori Sumimura and Tokiko Yukimura, respectively Yoshimori's grandfather and Tokine's grandmother, chastise them for talking with someone from their hated rival family. That evening, Yoshimori goes to the school and traps an ayakashi by a tree, however he is tricked into not dispelling it due to its form as a little girl. The ayakashi, named Yumigane, transforms and grows too strong for Yoshimori. Tokine arrives in time to save him, but she is injured in the process. As she recovers, Yoshimori vows to never let anyone else get hurt by any more ayakashi, as he continues five years later defending their school with his full strength.
