Noragami

This is an excellent show and easily the best anime I've seen this year at the time of writing. The story is very well developed and deep, without making the mistake of taking itself too seriously. The main characters are immediately likable and you feel like you know them incredibly well after just 12 short episodes. Two of the best things about this show besides the story are the art style and music. The animation looks fantastic and each of the main characters seem to just sparkle against the darker background of a typical Japanese city. Meanwhile the music is really cool and has an indescribable flare to it. All of these things contribute to making this just a great show that you won't be able to stop watching once you start - I finished it in one day. And the best part is, Season 2 has been announced! Really looking forward to seeing more of Yato and friends.

The only complaints I have with this show are the disappointing romance and some of the action scenes. Their is some limited romance throughout the show that is hinted at but it never really develops in the first season. They could be setting it up for season 2, but don't expect too much romance in season 1. As far as action scenes, the fighting in this show is pretty great, but most of the phantoms Yato fights go down in one good hit. Things get a little more interesting when Yato fights with other gods, but the final fight of season 1 feels a little rushed and underwhelming. These are minor complaints and I'm sure some people will barely even notice them because the rest of the show just carries you along for such a great ride.

Overall, I really recommend this anime, especially if you've been having trouble finding a good show recently. Trust me, this is exactly what you need.

This is one of the best anime I've ever seen. It has great & very unique story, along with superb background music. It's also comedy from time to time, but has great action and emotions. The series is very short though...awaiting new episodes from the manga. If you're coming from its manga, you'll notice they have missed some details, which should have been told for better understanding.

Noragami is a unique, fresh and very easy to enjoy anime. I absolutely loved it.

The first season started slow. In fact the first season focused too much on creating a drama for Yukine. I'm not saying that's bad, of course the drama is good after all this anime successfully shows how it's characters are totally human, with the exclusion of the paranormals. But, we wanted equally more action and fights as well. There still some great parts as even the last three episodes were a bang. However, even if you don't really enjoy the first season, don't give up for there's a Champaign in the bouquet for season 2. The sequel season for Noragami is one of anime best sequels ever. It totally looked and felt better for the show. Immediately, from the first episode a brilliant arc was created. The remaining half of the show will seem confusing but continue to the last episode and everything will be clearer. For those criticising because of plot holes, I mean that's why there's an upcoming 3rd season. There's no wrong if it ended on a cliffhanger. Just wait for the third patiently. 7.9 is still underrated for such a great show like this.

I really enjoyed this show(note I've watched the sub of this), it had every aspect you look in an above average anime. It was very, very funny(the ova was really funny as well). Their is a very cool storyline and ability concept that does very good with moderate action throughout the show and there's also a very faint bit of romance. The characters really make this show, each one is completely unique and you grow to love them all even in a short 12episodes. The art and music are very appealing and fit the eye and ears very nicely. I have high expectations to the English dub of this!

Overall: 4.5/5. Why not 5/5? Well its kinda your typical shounen anime, but that doesn't mean that its not worth the watch. Its still very well made and a really fun watch that i think anyone would really enjoy. But i think its still missing that "Umph" that gives a really good anime that hook that makes it stand out from the typical to an outstanding, i have hopes that they'll find that spark in season 2 or the upcoming chapters of the manga(its still ongoing in japan as of this post).

P.S. Their is only 1 OVA episode released as of this post.
