LatestAfter Allen and Lenalee defeat the Level 4 Akuma, Cross tells Komui to cancel the evacuation. However, the cancellation may be premature…
Darkness is moving in, and young exorcist Allen Walker is humanity's greatest hope against the wicked forces conspiring to bring civilization to its knees. Akuma – cruel spirits born of tragedy and lost souls – lurk in every shadow, willing and eager to do the bidding of their leader, the dread Millennium Earl.

Should he fail, Innocence will be lost forever. The war to decide the fate of mankind has begun – and the carnage will be endless.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The manga hiatuses were so legendary that 'D.Gray-man' became shorthand for suffering in anime fandom.
Allen Walker is a rare shounen protagonist whose heroism is explicitly framed as pathology—his 'savior complex' is diagnosed, not celebrated.
