This essentially reminds me of Blood Lad but without boobs as the focal point the whole time.

The story was interesting and the characters are very lighthearted and enjoyable to watch

The soundtrack for this anime is sick

The presentation of this anime seems to be a mix of Bleach and XBlade

Comedy is pretty funny though haha. Will keep watching

I've been waiting for this and yet I watched it just right now.

Whoa, a Great start for the first episode. I really like the OP, the ED is good.

Lol, Yato is so ambitious to have many worshipers.

Hiyori got some skills there. Milord is back to his owner.

You offer 5-yen to gods?? He wants only 5-yen, lol how cheap

The bgm of the preview is cool.
I can't wait next week. This is really interesting.

Thoughts:
1:04 holy shit, it's the legendary voice actor Kamiya Hiroshi (the dude who voiced Levi in Shingeki no Kyojin)

3:28 assistant quits on the yato… what a great start

5:37 dog peeing on Yato's advertisement… how nice

9:29 if Iki didn't say "father" to the doctor who was petting her head for like 2 mins, I would've thought the doc was a pedobear

11:31 yato = creeper

12:31 yato = super narcissist

14:00 school uniforms look so boring

17:55 lil fan service

------------------
Overall:
1. OP song really strained my eyes

2. The humor is actually funny

3. ED song was alright

4. Graphics, music, voice acting, characters, & story look very promising. Kamiya Hiroshi is in this series so it's kind of a must-watch. 7/10

Kininarimasu!!! Hiyori = Eru version two.

Promising series. The animation is top class. As expected of Bones. The story doesn't really interest me that much. I like the characters though.

That ending though. Supercell!!! Yeah!

Looking forward on how it'll go. I hope the story doesn't go full shit mode since it looks cool so far.

Great first episode, THE OP AND ED WERE SO GOOD. ANYTHING BY RYO IS AMAZING. Like the ED more than the OP, but that's solely because i'm a supercell fanboy, but the OP is funky and sounds cool. In fact, the OST at the beginning was quite cool too.
The story seems interesting so far, and from the characters show in the OP i really am gonna be digging this. However, if this does turn out to be a 1 cour series.... I hope it doesn't get rushed :/
Bones are best studio this season, keep it at!!!

This was certainly better than I expected. It's only the first ep so I'll reserve judgment until a few more eps. The ED was certainly nice though.

Also is the synopsis wrong? There was no bathroom scene so...

Amazing, I think this will become one of my favorites. I just loved it. I'm sad it's only a 1 cour though :/

Kamyia Hiroshi voicing the MC, cool MC, likable female lead, good comedy, good action, nice premise and concept, great art and visuals.

Now to sprinkle in a bit of plot to round things out... all in all a fun first episode.

That loooong silent dramatic pause combined with his stare when he shows up under the bed covers...that was just awesome. lol I wasn't too keen on the brightly lit eyes but I can get used to them.

Damn, this went by way too fast.
I have a feeling it's going to be one of my favorites this season, if not the favorite.
Characters are absolutely awesome. Yato is hilarious and Hiyori is not a damsel in distress like all other female MCs.

Question though: What is up with the synopsis on MAL?? It's completely different.

Nice start to the winter season for me. Whenever I see Yato I can't help, but see Araragi from Monogatari because of the VA and the way he acts. Had me laughing when Yato said his services cost 5 yen and Hiyori just pulled it out of her pocket like it was nothing. All in all, a good first episode that has me looking forward to what anime has to offer this year.

Dropped.

Araragi-kun please go back to your own anime because this shit is too shallow for you.


^ A little harsh don't you think? There are times that one can watch simply to be entertained. Sometimes the best way to send a message is through the mail. Everything doesn't have to be deep.

For the first episode it was pretty decent.

Opening/ending are both really nice, both the song + animation.

Character designs are... interesting. Though really, jersey?!

Hiyori is pretty awesome though. That kick...

Hiroshi Kamiya is voicing Yato :D

The first episode was pretty good. Lol I thought he is going to ask for like 5 million yen or something. This is definitely worth some attention.
