Under this social phenomenon, the film “Onmyouji” was open. As a basic work, this paper considers the composition of the original, and also the principles and process of narrative development shown in the modification to visual media. “Onmyouji” was faithful to the original as the original author, Yumemakura Baku participated in its production and also wrote its scenario. Partially accepting the series of sub unit belonging to the series of “Onmyouji,” its scenario was completed. There were no problems with the topic to accept the original. The basic axis of the film was about developing Doson’s plot and Seimei’s activities to interrupt it based on each incident.
