This show's OST is great, especially the OP.

It took me 36 minutes to watch this episode because I kept replaying the OP.

Hiyori is great.

Yato is great.

This show is great....but how the hell do people have this on their favorites by episode 2?

I still don't know what to think about this anime... It's average so far, but let's wait till the plot begins.

This could well be the best show of the season. I love it so far. Considering that I am a fan of both Witchcraft Works and Nisekoi prior to the season starting, that is fairly high praise.

I insanely love this anime and think it's going to be my favorite this season.
The characters are great, the comedy is epic, the OST is fantastic.. I could go on.

When I first saw Yukine, I thought "kyaaaa so cute!!!" but then he opened his mouth and I laughed so hard.
Didn't expect him to be a brat. xDD

Hiyori is still the funniest character in the show.
The things she comes up with and her losing her body all the time is hilarious. Yato is awesome as well.

also.... WHY ARE THE BEST SHOWS ALWAYS FUCKING 12 EPISODES!!?? Drives me mad.

The OST sounds great. I couldn't expect anymore from Taku Iwasaki.

The comedy in this anime is great too. I liked the part where Hiyori mistook a phantom for a regalia. I also liked the part where Yato was daydreaming. Hiyori was like, "What's going on in that head of his?", lol.

Loved this episode.

Hmm,and so my least favorite character appears,well maybe he won't be as annoying since he's voiced by Yuki.Hopefully they'll be able wrap up his arc in 1-2 episode though it might be 3 because it was my least favorite in the manga due to Yukine's brattiness.

Ok, the first time I didn't really like the OP, but at the 2nd time, something changed inside of me, and now I'm listening it without limits.

I wonder why Kato was crying? Because he didn't want to kill the spirit I guess.

OH DAMN IWASAKI, STOP BEING SO AWESOME EVERYTIME.

I think it's because he caught a glimpse of Yukine's past life.

This show is starting to pick up from the first episode. The comedy is quite good. Yato got a new shinki in the form of a sword. Looking forward to seeing more.

Definitely my favorite this season. This episode was just awesome. The first half was a little slow but the 2nd half made up for it.

Loved the OST during the fight scene.

Hiyori noticing she's separated from her body is always funny.

Yato was so badaas during the 2nd half. No wonder he was the god of war.

Yata doing manual labor to save for his shrine. That's something you don't see from a god.

Yukine's reply to Yatao was so hilarious although it kind of broke the mood there

I hope the next episode would be even better.

Does anyone know the song that was playing in this episode it had auto tune and rapping in it. I was just wondering if maybe it was Lotus Juice who was rapping that song and also the title too, thanks!

Thoughts:
0:37 excellent fan service with excellent music

3:08 those purple baggy school uniforms are so unattractive that I wouldn't go to that school

5:45 so that explains why babies cry… cuz they can see those freaky spirits

7:20 that sound effect sounds like it came from a 7 second opening sequence of any Sunrise anime like Gundam

8:57 yato is so full of himself. It was funny in the last episode but seeing it again just gets annoying

17:56 how can yato see that lil yellow light from that far?

18:39 epic music here

19:22 even more epic music here. Sounds a bit awkward but seeing those images made it appropriate. What an intense trance this scene put me in. Very awesome scene

22:29 after all the cheesy lines yato says, he gets denied by his sword. Great stuff

-----------------
Overall:
1. Idk what it is but there this 'vibe' that makes this show attractive. Maybe it's because of Hiroshi Kamiya, the voice actor of Yato or maybe Iki. I really want to drop the series but they're keeping me in it.

2. Don't like the OP song. Those visuals really mess up the eyes. Supercell ED song is alright.

3. The scene at 19:22 where yato gets his sword and sees those images… that moment was like seeing the entrance of Levi from episode 9 of 'Attack on Titan.' Both scenes are past epicness. You watch anime for those moments. It's been awhile since I've felt that way. Nice to see that it's in Noragami.

Everything still looks and sounds great. It seems like Bones might overdo the comedy like they did with FMA:B (not that I'm complaining though). 5/5
What I don't get though is who exactly can see Yato and who can't? Hope they provide a good explanation in later episodes.


everyone can see yato, but he is hard to see. Its like a random person in a crowd, he is there but you dont notice.


I am referring to the time when he was talking to Hiyori in the park/whatever.
There was clearly no one around(no crowds) and people still didn't notice him (they said Hiyori was talking to herself).
Then he goes and works for someone..

because it hasn't been explained that the only people who can see him and his advertisement are people having problems and seeking help ^^,
Simplistic beauty can't be appreciated by someone who looks for something grand in everything he watch.
