This was really good episode.

The moment Yato got that shrine was so beautiful. Then the short flashback to add on the feels. Those tears he shed over the shrine got me hard right in the heart.

~Great episode!!!

Dat reunion entrance
DAT Money Slap
(I'm no manga reader but I get the weird feeling that I won't hate Ebisu as a villain compared to Kuguha. I mean, his shinkis seem... nice?)
Bishamon's talk with the council, the ost felt like the Kurain OST of Ace Attorney. It might just be me though.
Hiyori's imagination, not that hard to believe. They practically had the same reaction when they were presented with the cash
Dat phone call, I assure you if I heard the same thing you did w/o meeting the client face to face I'd probably be scared by the voice alone
Nora was mentioned this ep so I can assume she'll play a big role this arc (if we also inc. the end credits of last ep)
Yukine matured! I'm starting to like him even more! Shame he's still a kid. Potential bishie too. Great personality from spoiled brat to nagging grandma. lol

Highlight of the ep
Mini-shrine, Yato's crying is contagious.
I was wondering what that shrine was at the ED (I know it was Yato's but I was curious what was it role story wise)
If there's no one happy, is it really a victory?

On the Ebisu thing, no idea. They say that in the manga too. Maybe it's a mistranslation and he meant to say that Ebisu is all stuck-up, emotionless and usually acts like an old, bald man or something like that?

As per God's aging, the manga hasn't explained much on that yet. I believe that they do age (we saw Bishamon as a child in that reincarnation explanation by Kazuma, and we also saw Yato as a child in this episode). But we have seen Bishamon and Yato fighting for ages, so maybe they age veeeeeeeeeeery slowly. I guess they eventually die of old age too and then get reincarnated? :/


I think they just age up to certain age, and then can stay at this age forever, unless they're killed. What this age is probably depends on the God.
the gods will die when they reach a certain age. But when they die, a reincarnation of themselves was born immediately. Basically, if Bishamon dies, a child Bishamon with the same appearance will be born. Thats why Kaguha wants to kill her so he can brainwash the reincarnated, innocent, naive Bishamon and make her his ally. You'll understand more at the end of Ebisu arc. They'll explain it very at the end.

The shrine part made me tear up a bit both when I first read it and when I saw this episode. I was kind of disappointed in this episode though since it really didn't contain much... It was like what 1 chapter? I feel like with how few episodes they took to do the whole bishamon arc they could've done a better job with this episode.

I don't want the next arc to get rushed too much in 5 episodes or just replaced with an anime exclusive ending like season 1 :|

Actually, no. It was 2 chapters, like it's been all season. Perhaps it seemed like there was less material because it wasn't as intense as the ones with Bishamon arc. At this point, there's no time for filler as they're going to do the whole Ebisu arc. It probably will end at Chapter 38.

I think they'll end at chapter 39. Makes more sense, better ending, and that's where Ebisu arc really finishes I think.

That shrine scene was really heartwarming. Every episode of Noragami S2 has been so good, and I'm sure the Ebisu arc is going to continue this trend. Noragami S2 is easily my favorite anime this Fall season.

I also like the fact that in this episode, it is "prevaricated" in advancing the story in favor of a greater understanding of what concerns the gods and their rules. Although in truth it is not true that the plot is not advanced on this occasion, but put props to hold on to understand the status quo, it is always helpful, it just is not abused for doing so. Who knows if it will show in the future, the reasons not "expressed" at the beginning of the episode link between Yato and Hiyori, without that part of the episode has suffered a major loss in terms of appeal. I liked the designs and settings, I can not wait to follow the next episode.

That drama about severing ties between Hiyori and Yato was short-lived. Too much hype for something that wasn't going to happen anyway. Still it was a really good episode overall.

You could easily mistake Yato's character design for someone else, he sorta looks like Moritaka Mashiro from Bakuman.

I still want to see some real death in the series, it'll make it better. I wonder if someone will ever die in this series.

Ooh, yes! Loved this episode. Loving Yukine's character development.
Those last feels were so well-written, so moving.
Colloquy was pretty freaking cool. Love that we got a taste of the deeper lore--served as a great intro.
Hiyori's face-planting into side-walk concrete with her insta-snooze this week was pretty epic. She's ought to be suffering some cranial damage.

The momentary "Second condition:... LOL JK, nahrilly" threw me for a bit. Guessing manga did this better. Also not huge on the bad guy's "foiled!" scene. Felt a bit silly, esp. seeing as his exemplars argued Yukine shouldn't be swayed by wealth as an exemplar...?

Can't wait 'til next episode. <3

Well, Suzuha died. Also many of Bishamon's Regalias. But yes, as a manga reader, I can confirm that some characters will die. The manga is getting pretty dark.

For a second i'm afraid that either Yato or Yukine will agree to Ebisu's demand.. but it's nice to know that they can still loyal to each other in the end.. What's surprise me is the one who made the first statement was Yukine.. looking back, he's really grow a lot from the 1st season for sure.. Good for him :D

Omg my heart
Definitely the highlight of this episode.. The last few minutes of this episode was really heartwarming.. Finally there's someone who built a shrine for Yato.. While it's only a miniature ones, but i guess it's means a lot to him.. and in the end we can also saw how Hiyori got some grazes on her finger, show her dedication for making the shrine for Yato, nice ones :')

Overall, a nice episode to start the new arc, looking forward to see the next ones.. 5/5

Laughed my ass off this whole episode... and then I cried. That fucking mini-shrine came outta nowhere and RKO'd me with teh feels. Yatori going strong, guise.
However, I'm a bit disappointed by the fact that the plot line about Hiyori's eventual release from her half-ayakashi state was seemingly totally dropped: makes it seem like the event was just hyped up for nothing. Hoping it will be touched upon in a later episode.

ps: that noratan remix tho
