| Season 3 will happen. I don't know when, but with the popularity the show has and this kind of ending, it is almost guaranteed to happen. (I predict, late 2016 to early 2017) |
|
| don't care about the OST thing, this anime deserved to be sold 30k copies or more!! and everybody demand the third season. Yes, so do I *flip 5 yen* |
 |
| Overall, a great series. My favourite anime XD And, to think "dad' has phantoms around him at the end... Would love to have season 3. ;D Milk_is_Special said: ^Same.vanella96 said: I noticed it immediately, I've watched that opening so many times, that I can notice even the smallest of changes.I only noticed because someone pointed it out in the comments section.

| Way better arc than Bishamon's arc. The last two episodes literally save the season. From the anime standpoint, the ending is more dramatic. Yet the manga one is greater, and I can't understand why didn't they adapt it the way the manga is. Yato again lost his character's consistency, being an attached man for almost forever and suddenly let go w/o a proper explanation won't serve his character justice. Again thank god there's KamiyaH. Oh man finally I'm done. Should have dropped this a long time ago when I found it way less enjoying than the 1st season. Yet the amazing OP and the hapiness-inducing NIRUBANA made me stayed for all these bad adaptions. Blame my free time for all these. |
| You will soon learn that a heart that choose to exist, even in a life filled with pain, will one day allow us to meet again. With the world's blessings, we will meet again and again, forever returning to the homeworld we've yet to see. Many, many times.  |
| They rushed the best arc and the shrine episode didn't make me tear up like the manga did. The Ebisu arc was pretty good, although the final episode was quiet bad so in the end S1 is superior to S2 (The ending is uber important, leaving it like that is just lazy) 7 out of 10 for this |
| Interesting ending, Never expected that guy to be the so called Father. Those moments with Ebisu were really nice. Yato has found his goal, To be a God of Fortune. He even released Nora,Unexpected. Overall I really liked this season, 9/10 for me. Guess it's time to pick up the manga. |
 |
| Nice ending to the season. This season was exceedingly better than the first. So, 9/10 from me. |
 |
| Nice final episode, and end of the arc. Could go anywhere from here really. Upped the serious drama this season. 9/10 |
 |
| Oh damn, and I was wondering what happened to that guy. noobsoldier said: This kind of thing is always a nice touch.Did anyone notice the slight difference in the op? Last episode: |
 |
| Definitely better than season 1, ill wait for season 3! can't get enough of shota-ebisu, he is really adorable <3 9/10 |
| Ah yes. I loved the way they ended this *^*)b Widdle Ebisu and Yato at Olive Tavern and the breakup with Nora. I like. Random ayakashi storm popping out of nowhere tho lol I also like how IshiKai changed the way he voices Fujisaki, at the end there, so it fits the character more. Props to him. Now, Season 3. Bring eeet. |
| although there wasn't too much action, i really liked this episode. it provided a lot of closure for yato c: definitely a lot better than the first season, but i enjoyed both seasons!! hopefully there will be a season 3, b/c the new arcs in the manga are really great C: |
 |
| Fujisaki, the one who kissed Hiyori and father of Yato. O.O |
| Wow, what an ending. The Ebisu arc wrapped up quite nicely and emotionally. Now we have a teaser of the next big conflict, so I really hope Bones can give us yet another season of Noragami. Loved it! (That sad smile at the end of the OP...) |
Araneae said: I really don't like the changes that Bones did (why is Hiyori there, when she shouldn't? OMG.) but other than that it was good. Because it was a good way to end the season. Not including Hiyori in the ending would have left a bad aftertaste in everyone's mouth. Minor divergence from the manga is fine. |
zKitsune said: I dont care what ya'll think. Nora was there for him from day one. You don't just find new friends and kick her to the curb. He said she never changed, but he never tried to change her lol. I don't think yato ever cared about her, he never seemed bothered if she got out of the underworld. I was looking to see if she made it out, but i couldn't tell till this episode. Nora is a murderer who shows no concern for anybody but Father, Yaboku and herself. Her loyalties lie with Father, and she betrayed and severely hurt Yato many times in order to satisfy Father. Yato and Nora have a shared past and been together through a lot, he cares for her: that's part of why Yato could never bring himself to release her. |
| 10/10. But I'm biased af lol. And I rate purely on enjoyment so ya. There is always that beautiful feeling when something just clicks with you and you just love everything about a series, despite it's flaws. That happened with Noragami. I don't even know what did it, the first season was good and I enjoyed it but it didn't crazy hook me. But I loved the characters. Then season two happened and I was excited to see what was going to happen-- and I got HOOKED. I went and bought all the manga available to me (up to vol 9 right now) and read it all. I'm conflicted on reading further online or just waiting it for release monthly as I want to support the series and I don't particularly like reading manga online as I liked physical books more. I'd still buy it though if I read it online. Who knows, I might cave because I need to know what's going on and it's only a click away.... Anyways, was this series REALLY a masterpiece.. I dunno. But I enjoyed it every week and was never bored. I love the characters in this show. I'm pretty happy about this season and everything about it overall. I hope there is a season 3. That teaser was too much if there won't be. :( |
Barion-Zara said: This season adapted ~25 chps. There are ~20 chps after it so if we're getting another season the announcement probably won't be til Spring 2016 or so On the other hand... About 40% of season1 was anime original. |
| Really salty about the change from Bishamon to Yato holding Ebisu as he died. |
animefan8800 said: Oh geez, their Father was that random asshole who kissed Hiyori? Wow....why didn't I see that coming He isn't just some random asshole. The manga gives him more screentime, and Father is explained in more detail. |
MAND4 said: Meh, this episode was kind of bad. Extremely anti-climatic, and not good enough to be a setup for 3rd season. Overall, I feel this season was quite worse than 1st one. Still a decent watch, but was hoping for more. Between 5 and 6 for me, but gave 5 because of the last episode. Hoping they'll ramp it up in the 3rd season. I liked it a lot, and I think they couldn't have done a much better job, so what if it was a bit anti-climatic? To make a grander season finale they would have had to diverge from the manga. They did that with season1 - S1 has an anime original ending, and last few episodes - which was fine, but if you want a show with sharks to be constantly jumped and bad writing just stick to your usual crappy 999 episode shounen shows. |
noobsoldier said: Did anyone notice the slight difference in the op? Last episode: This episode: I didn't! Thanks for spotting it. |
| Actually this plot is amazing, the characters are also very good, Yato tries to get rid of your past and change, but he still has much to do One of the best scenes of the season in my opinion was Ebisu banging money in Yato's face, this anime is hilarious in several moments, I will continue to follow the manga and I hope for a next season .. |

Ryner1989 said: I enjoyed the series, but I'm not a fan of changing the original even at the expense of whether the changes have a plus or a minus. I understand they wanted add more drama, but the manga also had. Its generally work out well but could be better 8/10 I don't think it's about adding more drama or whatnot. I think the main problem with keeping everything exactly the same as in the manga is the 13 ep season format. If they kept everything the same your 13 eps would end in the middle of a conversation about how Yato met Kofuku, or whatever... |
iSwitch said: Ebisu calling Bishamon crazy chick was hillarious In the manga Ebisu calls Bishamon something sexual. I can't remember. Maybe pervert-san, or something like that? Because |
| Ms Crazy chick was the best xD btw really loved it , Im hoping for a season 3 |
| Even though it was a bit different from the manga it was still pretty good. Third season pls! |
| wow, that was painful.. ebisu's last words were "i dont want to die" how painful was that.. to him, to yato, and the others who heard that.. over all, this series is a masterpiece! :D as expected from noragami.. but the last ep lacked yatori :3 anyway, hoping for a season 3! the next arcs are much better than ebisu's arc, and much darker </3 |
| I can't believe that P.O.S. that kissed Hiyori and tried to make her forget Yato was Father all along! Loved the scene where Yato released Nora and decided to take his own path. I definitely enjoyed these arcs this season and hopefully that scene at the end means we will get a S3! 9/10 overall from me! |
| So glad that I'm not a huge manga reader, because the manga readers WHINE WAY TOO MUCH and have to RUIN every adapted anime for the ANIME ONLY WATCHERS! |
| Damn, Ebisu's death. It was so brutal. Anyway, Noragami Aragoto was far better than the first season. 8/10. I'd love a season 3. |
| Ebisu's death was painful. " i dont want to die" Damn >_> Really enjoy it. 8/10 Hope for s3 BTW, That last ost reminded me of Thai comedy movies lol |
 |
| Not quite what i expected. |
 |
 well then I guess we know where the locator brush whet, but how did Fujisaki got it in the first place, did Nora gave it to him? |
| So Fujisaki is Yato's dad? Don't really see how that works, but oh well. This was definitely better than the first season, but like the first season I still feel that this show is ridiculously overrated. I really don't see how people think it is deserving of being a show in the top 100. 7/10 |
| damn the soundtrack when yato brings yukine over the bridge. after ending. take out 5 yen from my piggy bank. place it in front yato's poster. yato-sama plz give me 3rd season soon |

Poor Ebisou and about time he got rid of that bitch and Bishamon in a nutshell |
 |
| Good! Now there's a chance for that guy who stole her kiss to die |
| <img src="http://img245.imageshack.us/img245/4424/jeff1244.png" border="0" /> |
| Damn, his body just burst up. So sad, nearly teared up... Shota Ebisu is too cute though. And Yato/Yukine brotp scene near the end was very nice. And loved Hiyori's wish, love her as well <3 overall, all great sequel. 9.44/10, great stuff. There wasn't enough Hiyori though. I want my Hiyori arc and want it to be epic. Ebisu arc is rlly good, too though. Ebisu is my 2nd fav now if I haven't mentioned it before. Can't wait for S3! |
 |
| Good last episode. Kid Ebisu is sweet, but I hope he would lived, his death was sad :( I felt bad for Nora when Yato rejects her, but at least Yato has decided his own path, an that is good. Oh, so Yato's Father was the kid who NTR'd him? That was hilarious and impacting at the same time. I hope Bones do a season 3 and see more of that asshole. Way better than the first season. 8/10. |
 |
| ...Where's season 3 !!! 9/10 |
| Season 3! Season 3! Season 3! |
| Superior to the first season in every way. Enjoyable for the most part as well. Bishamon arc was much better tho. 8/10 |
 |
| If it wasn't for a completely dry season, I probably wouldn't watch it to the end. I feel like I wasted time even more than usual after completing a mediocre series. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
VanishingKira said: Mediocre like S1 and the manga. 5/10. And you're still watching the whole Thing even though you don't like it, good job wasting your Time. |
