Onmyōji (陰陽師?) is a manga series written and illustrated by Reiko Okano based on a novel series of the same name by Baku Yumemakura. It was serialized from 1993 to 2005 in the seinen magazine Comic Birz by ja (Scola (publisher); Scola) and the shōjo magazine Melody by Hakusensha. It follows the story of a master in onmyōdō, a traditional Japanese cosmology.

The series was compiled into 13 tankōbon published between July 12, 1997 and September 29, 2005 by Hakusensha.[1] The first seven volumes were published in France by Delcourt between 2007 and 2013.[2][3] In 2011, a sequel series titled Onmyōji: Tamatebako (陰陽師 玉手匣?) started to be published in Melody and as of August 28, 2013, three volumes have been released by Hakusensha.[4]

It was adapted into a film in 2001 and it was followed by a sequel in 2003.[5][6] A exhibit at the Kyoto International Manga Museum explored "the supernatural aspects of Kyoto" by using this manga as reference.[7] The manga received the Grand Prize at the 2001 Tezuka Osamu Cultural Prize.[8] The series also received the Seiun Award for best science fiction comic in 2006.[9] Also, in 2011, Paul Gravett included it on the book 1001 Comics You Must Read Before You Die.[10]
