This season's been exceeding my expectations right from the start, and then this episode... The intensity... And then that DAMN clliff hanger. I just finished watching the episode some minutes ago and still feel like... uh how am I gonna get through this week? (Seems a lot of you can relate to this, too.)

I guess I can't even begin to describe the impact of this episode.

Yato did nothing wrong! Kazuma is more responsible for everyone's deaths than Yato is.

That cliffhanger was painful. Don't think Yukine will die but still. The wait for next week is going to be tough.

So Yato is just badass!
No one in their right minds would ever want to f*ck with that guy when he´s mad.
This episode was the manifestation of awesomness and the cliffhanger is killing me.
Also i think we will see Yato going full berserk .(and maybe even using nora?)
The animation of this show is great and you can really see it has improved over the first season.(even though there might be some frames where characters look a bit plain)

Yukine is probably on the verge of death. DUN DUN DUUUUUUUUUUUUN.


FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU. Rampaging Yato will be glorious.

...Hoping it happens.

I'm a bit confused about the names. Kazuma said Bishi's present clan share the 'ha', but most of her weapons, that she use freely, end with/share 'ki'?

The "ki" part is only used when she uses them as a weapon just like Yato calls Yukine Sekki.
Their normal names are Akiha or Kazuha for example.

The names have two different pronunciations. Calling one (vessel name) turns them to a weapon, and the other (actual name) reverts them to human form.
Yuki => Sekki
The first one is their actual name. In this case it is Yuki, but add -ne because he is Yato's shinki so Yukine.
Second one is the vessel name, in this case Sekki. Apparently -ki is for vessel so most shinki have their names end with ki when they are called to transform.

I like how the plot of this season is more serious. I don't like Bishamon but whatever. I was getting worried during that episode for a few minutes.

i'll just say this first, that opening song is right on the BEAT!

And so I say for this episode,

oh my god! dudes/dudettes

That was some drama there.

I couldn't say this to be the top series of recent

but certainly, drama-wise/thriller-wise(?), it's up there

and wow. Didn't thought I'd get this feel after so many dissapointments from the batches of anime this year, all walk no talk.

Bishamon though. She cares a lot, and I'd guess many would say too much.
So deluded, that she wasn't even aware(?) of her predicament
(still, I find that implausible, since in this instance/present, where only one's turning(eyeballs popping everywhere), we were shown she's still aware of her faculties, but we couldn't really say. In that past shown, all were turning to monsters, and perhaps the effect were too much to the point of delusions, and so, Bishamon may not be fully aware of the danger she posed on her surroundings, and her near annihilation, though she must have surely know, maybe/may hap..., that she was saved by yato....)

I'll never get tired of seeing Yato with a ponytail. Ever.

Awesome episode! I really really really love Kazuma because if that backstory. He's just so caring of Bishamon, it's great. Also that Kofuku betting on Bishamon so Yato would win, cute cute!

Best ep I've seen yet, and that's including season 1 too. Had been waiting for ages to find out what really went on between Bishamon and Yato, as knew he couldn't have been the cold blooded killer she made him out to be, nice twist!

Amazing episode, I can't wait for next week because that cliff hanger though. I'm still hating on Bishamon. Honestly, it's like getting 25 dogs and only being able to feed five. After the first time you'd think she wouldn't make such a stupid mistake. Urgh, something about her. Hopefully she'll turn better after Yatogami eventually kicks her ass ten ways to Sunday.

Is it just me or is Yato and the Nora really strong together. Can't wait to find out more about them.

Most memorable moment: Obviously Yukine getting cut in half

What an amazing episode. The show's really moving forward well.

Doubt Yukine is dead, but the shock was definitely there, and Kazuma's backstory was really interesting and fit well with the fighting.

What a painful cliffhanger wow... I doubt Yukine will die from this, but still... that was quite the surprise. A lot of good backstory. I'm pretty excited about how Yato will get himself out of this, thats gotta be another epic next episode.

Imo, this second season in general is a great improvement to the first one. I'm loving it so far and it is flawless. I can say that this became my favorite Anime of the season now.
I'm feeling thank you

This was the point when I really began to love Noragami the manga, but after the first season of the anime, somehow that love diminished. I think I'll pick the manga back up again. This episode made me cry at the end because of Yukine's sacrifice, he's come so far from being a brat to be willing to shield his master without a second thought. He's definitely my favorite character in the series.

And yeah, Bishamon needs to stop living in her own world and start to realize that there's something fundamentally wrong in the way she's doing things, and that her hatred for Yato is misplaced. She should be hating herself if anything, otherwise the same tragedy will repeat. Of course, there's also Kugaha in all of this...

honestly so much better than the first season.

i bet they wont kill yukine but i havent read the manga. it's making me so anxious to think about it because i love yato and yukine.

I JUST WANT YATO AND BISHAMON TO DISCOVER WHAT KUGAHA AND AIHA ARE DOING. when they realize that im sure there's gonna be a kick-a$$ battle to accompany it.
