My eyes are burning! Oh the emotions! Daikoku lol I feel ya bro.

Anyone else feel that Yato is exactly like a father figure to Yukine and that Hiyori is like a momma? (Aside from the fact that Yukine was a total creep at first)

Yato blushed that was ADORABLE!

I really want to know who that strange guy is with Nora!
Sorry! I must admit I am confused most of the time.
Feel free to recommend anime to me, or tell me to shut up.

Yato was saved, this episode was very sentimental
I was very angry with Yukine, thought until he could die if he were to remain so
Yukine even apologizing not moved me, will need more than that to win the trust
Hiyori grew a lot in this episode, I also enjoyed seeing the three shinkis helping Yato
Nora plans to do something against Yato, also Bishamon
hopefully next episodes continue good
__________

Yato foi salvo, este episodio foi muito sentimental
fiquei com muita raiva de Yukine, achei até que ele podia morrer se fosse para continuar assim
mesmo Yukine pedindo desculpa não me comoveu, vai precisar mais do que isso para ganhar a confiança
Hiyori cresceu bastante neste episodio, também gostei de ver os tres shinkis ajudando Yato
Nora planeja fazer algo contra Yato, Bishamon também
tomara que os proximos episodios continuem bons

Same. There's like 10 volumes out, they could have easily made this 2-cour T___T Now they're just going to wrap it up just when things are starting to get good.

It's gonna have a filler ending. Remember that guy Nora was talking to after the ED? He's an anime original character and I think we all know what that means.

As far as I'm aware, Yukine is the most annoying character this season. I hate people that spend all their time crying about inevitabilities (not to mention he has the option to live an essentially human lifestyle), and he's filled multiple episodes with his incessant crying.

An anime original character is a character created specifically for an anime adaptation of another work. The silver-haired man from the end of this episode of Noragami doesn't appear in the manga that the anime is adapted from, therefore making him an anime original character.

This anime is 900 times better than I ever expected it'd be. I thought it'd be a disappointment like Kyoukai no Kanata, but this is both enjoyable and has a good storyline. I was so impressed with this episode and its ability to make me care (despite the fact that I already knew what was gonna happen from Tumblr posts) that I upped ny rating from 9/10 to 10/10. I don't recall many other animes that went from an original rating of 7 to a 10 in my currently watching before.

For all you Yukine haters and Yato fans,

You liking a character doesn't mean he's necessarily "likeable" to everyone. In short, if you want to make a valid argument about if the character is believable or not, then try holding off previous biases and judging how they would act given a certain situation.

I believe Yukine's character was portrayed very accurately by Bones. He doesn't fully realize the consequences of his desires and would harm Yato whenever he sins. However, after discovering Yato is being blighted, he feels guilty and discomforted. You can tell he is feeling uneasy by his response of "whaterver" and not making eye contact with other characters.

In reguards to the characters' believability and roll, Yukine is being portrayed as an adolescence and Yato is being portrayed as the dad. Both of them fit very well into these archetypes- Yukine's selfishness is what defines childhood and Yato's self sacrifice is what defines being a father figure.

If there are no conflicting ideas, then there is no story.... If there is no character development, then there is a shitty story. Take your pick

Now I ask you... What is there to hate? Do you hate Yukine or are you just a fan of Yukine to be biased to the situation.

It's nice to see Hiyori mention the father-son relationship I posted last week in this thread Looks like I nailed down the purpose of the character development.

All those feels damn. Yukine confessing his sins is just so heartbreaking. Even as an adult, it's hard to humble yourself and confess - I guess the dying Yato in front of him pushed him to do so.

Anime original for the last ep's~

Yukine's phantom transformation reminds me how Tsukune transformed into a ghoul/dhamphir when he was training with his new sensei (forgot his name) in R+V II manga . O_O

The purification ritual was perfect. Yuki Kaji was soo good.. Yukine feels all over T^T

It's disappointing that after the purification scene, Yato was suppose to say things about Yukine being an outstanding shinki in which he havn't seen to others that's why he didn't release him. And also he ALLOWED HIS CONDITION TO WORSEN ON PURPOSE (So basically u can't just blame it all to Yukine coz it's yato's choice in the first place, he could just have punished yukine in an earlier time to avoid that near-death-condition but he didn't) This would have been a good defend for Yukine.

Well BONES did a good job ruining Yukine's character. He's now the most hated character in the series.. wow! I just hope more people would read the manga so they'll understand Yukine's true character.
I like your post!! I haven't read the manga but still I've always liked Yukine, sure he did some brutal things but you know, just because of that, it's stupid to give up on him, right?! I knew that he'd eventually realize his fault and change so here it is!!! ^^ Finally, the moment when he understands that what he was doing was wrong all along!

I really enjoyed the episode but I didn't really cry my eyes out! X'D I expected it to affect me more than it actually did! However, everything was very well done!!! Daikoku just won my affection!! :DD Especially when I saw him crying, damn he's a handsome one who can also feel sympathy!!! Also Kazuma who I didn't have any particular opinion about was pretty cool and I'm glad I saw him in that light! ^^

Overall, great ep, as expected of Noragami! ;3

This episode was Amazing !!
Yukine finally confessed. I don't blame him though for feeling so insecure. I'm just glad he's back ! I never disliked Yukine...I found him.."Human".The whole crying scene was so cute. Especially the scene in the end...*when Yato blushed*. Hiyori did a good job. :)
Daikoku..crying ! *_* And you can't hate Kofuku. She decreased the tension in the ep with her cute antics. Kazuma and Mayu were great too. I really do want to know what Kazuma owes Yato. I was so happy I teared up.

Them feels (;へ:)I'm glad that Yukine finally realised and confessed all of his sins. Just goes to show without Hiyori's help, the outcome would have been different for both Yato and Yukine.

Seems like the last 3 episode will be the original anime plot.
