----------------------------------------
Thank goodness Yukine came on time...

Pretty good episode. I hate the fact that Kugaha is back yet causing trouble AGAIN. Seriously, he is one of my least favorite characters in this series/story now. Good to see Bishamon again with battle armor. I still find the relationship between Nora and Yato to be pretty odd. I think they have some connection but very different as in the present compared to the past.

Decent action.
The unlikely alliance with Bishamon and Kofuku is also unusual..but I like the momentum of the episode. Poor Ebisu :(

Because of the delay on Tokyo MX, MBS starting this week.

That lady who was the reason for last arc was chosen for the rescue. That "doctor" is alive?! and stopped her. He damaged KajiKaji's character mentally with the fact that HiroC's character is with that girl, but regaining his sense with believing HiroC's character, he won. Sawashiro-san's character and FukuJun's character found Ebisu guy, and when the girl and KajiKaji's character found them, Ebisu guy told them about HiroC's character, who fell.

Toyosaki-san's character and OnoD's character came to help on opening the doorway. KajiKaji's character wanted to go, but he must be a "nora". Sawashiro-san's character and FukuJun's character went to save HiroC's character. Ebisu guy said the girl is needed to save HiroC's character...

27:25 next.

Also a bit late news:

Way to go Yukine.....All that training really paid off =o

Second half was pretty nice with seeing that Yato and Nora are like childhood friends or something as well as seeding Bishamon go in against Izanami

Next episode should be pretty hype and I hope that we get a good Yato x Hiyori moment since she is needed to save them now

Bones f*cked up big time. They skipped and changed many important things, things that will even make a third season impossible.

Here's my advice: once the season is over, read this arc in the manga to understand what really happened.

So disappointed right now...

Can you please, write in (Spoiler) brackets, what they missed? I've read manga a long time ago, can't remember.

And well, this series just loooooves cliffhangers so much. I know what's going to happen next, but even I managed to be annoyed this time.

Good episode, tho.

Doesn't really feel like much happened, given that we're still in more or less the same position where we started the episode at. Also, kinda surprised Kugaha appeared again so soon and that it was so anticlimactic and pretty much pointless.

Awesome ep. Intense af! And the OST was epic glad I downloaded it before all the trouble happened :P Animation was good and so was the close up art. But far away art looks so lol. Don't mind tbh.

Kugaha sure knows how to shit talk and provoke others. Damn he's good at that. But seeing Yukine REKTing him was so good!!

Izanami's voice is so damn creepy. Love it. Her "Finally caught u Y-a-t-o..." was creepy man.

Bisha was BA this ep. Glad she's finally come to terms with everything. Good stuff.

The HiiroxYato scene was nice too.

Ugghh...Kugaha's back. Wasn't expecting that, not so soon anyway....how...nice. So this was Bishamon's big"redemption" episode. Eh, she reminded me of Erza from Fairy Tail. :D Still don't care much for her, but maybe that'll change as the series continues. I do hope we see Nora, which yes I will continue to call her, all jealous and pissed when Yato reunites with Yukine and Hiyori. :D Speaking of Hiyori...her time to shine at last?

Awesome episode, Bishamon was really badass at the end, I like how her had developed since the last arc (same for Yukine). Let's hope that Yato can escape from this.

although there wasn't that much action this episode, but i was still really excited how this episode reinforced the bonds between yato, bishamon, yukine, hiyori, and everyone else c: i wished the fight between yukine and kugha was a bit more intense tho.

and it was really nice to see kofuku's animation when she uses her shiki, daikoko. c: it was also nice to see bishamon in a more serious outfit/armor c:

Awesome episode, Had some good fights with Yukine being able to beat Kugaha who once again comes to try to mess things up and Bishamon fighting against Izanami literally just grabbing her head and slamming her into the wall and ground lol. Also was interesting to see everyone having some doubts like Yukine during the Kugaha fight and also Yato with Nora. I honestly can't wait to see next weeks episode to see what is going to happen with that cliffhanger of Hiyori being the one that has to do something to save Yato and Bishamon!

Kugaha returning only to be defeated with Nakama power felt pointless. Didn't care for that at all.

Rest of the episode was cool. Nice seeing Bishamon doing the saving for a change :)

Bishamon looks badass in that armor. It's great that she finally admitted she was wrong for blaming Yato.


Ugh, Kugaha's back again. Someone should permanently get rid of him already.

What the hell, 3rd cliffhanger and all of it in a row?? Wooah something new, not that i hate that or anything, but I can't recall so many cliffhangers in Noragami series.

I guess it's due to the fact that this season has been tightly packed with heaps of events and excitement - no hostages taken this season, always holding your breath and it doesn't seem like it's going to end until the very end

I came into this thread to say it was one of the better episodes of anime I've seen all year. Not just in this show, but across all of them. Unfortunately for the manga readers it seems like they've shifted/omitted things, so that is a shame.

Nonetheless I loved the episode as a pure anime viewer and hope it keeps up.

Love this Anime so much. Great characters, story and a lot of development. Glad to see Bishamon with a lot of resolve in this episode and speaking what she really thinks to Yato.

I really hate Kuga, sadistic bastard, why not kill him already?

Excited about what Hiyori will have to do with Yato's escape, maybe some kind of sacrifice? The last 2 episodes are going to be so amazing, I can already sense that. Most probably going to be a 10/10 in my book at the end.
I'm feeling thank you

Episode was cool overall. I don't think the episode is shit because of the stuff that was omitted/changed, I just think it's a shame they weren't added really.

What's really bothering me is that there's a good chance S3 won't happen. This episode had all the signs that there will be a somewhat happy go lucky anime original ending. But unlike Rabo, this time it will be hard to continue the story with all the changes unless they retcon a few things.

Well... this episode certainly made me smile near the end. Such an epic scene for Yato and Bishamon. I really enjoy watching her develop. The scene between Yato and Hiiro was kind of sweet actually, despite all the trouble she's put him through. And of course, watching Yukine struggle with his doubts about Yato and Hiiro was pretty emotional.

Overall, a great episode as usual, although Kugaha's appearance was a little random in my opinion...

Anyway, next episode should be EPIC though if they do it right. We'll see :) So far, I have greatly enjoyed watching.

Freaking Kugaha is back. Well at least Yukine took care of him quite quickly.
Bishamon looks so much like Saber.
Bishamon throwing around Izanami was pretty cool.
Looks like they need Hiyori to help with getting Yato out from the Underworld.
