tingy said: I just meant the actual term "blight". We know about the stinging, but I didn't think it had ever been explained beyond that. Now we know it's a phenomenon that can build up and actually seriously affect the god in some way. I just felt like I'd heart blight being mentioned at some point.AlexTheRiot said: Had "blight" been mentioned before now? I feel like it has but I don't remember an explanation on how a regalia's thoughts/actions effect the god. I'm pretty sure it has been explained. It's basically negative thoughts/feelings/guilty action from a shinki "pricks" the god the shinki is connected to. Too much can cause bruises (or something like that) to the god and it affects their overall well-being too. Yukine's negative thoughts and his actions have been pricking Yato too much and that's why he was out of shape in this episode. |

| 5 more episodes left, meh. It is probably going to end up generic or inconclusive |

| Yukine was annoying but oh well...adolescence. Bishamon's hot and with an awesome VA too :o I can't wait for another week so I'm just going to read the manga now haha ^^ |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| NIce episode, wish to know more about nora? |

| Nora be creepin... SoraLover1994 said: And... WHY DOES KAZUMA LOOK LIKE YUKIO FROM AO NO EXORCIST? T.T Same seiyuu to boot |
| Good episode love Yato! Can anyone tell what she meant by blight and how Yukine is a burden to Yato??? |
 |
ScazoN said: Good episode love Yato! Can anyone tell what she meant by blight and how Yukine is a burden to Yato??? Not sure but Yukine is being burden to Yato because when Yukine succumbs to temptation, Yato is being somehow "punish". I think it is related to the red spots on the back of his neck. |
 |
| I love Nora. She's always looking out for Yato, and is the only one in the cast that seemingly cares about him. It's looking like her turn to shine next episode. This series will indisputably be BATS (Best Anime This Season) if he ends up with Nora. |
| Yukine really has to get himself together... I'm hoping that Hiyori will start being more useful to Yato |

The red spots on Yato's neck is the one called blight (in episode 2, Yato got one on his hand) and it is the seed of ayakashi so it must be purified. Episode 6 was great. I love it! Can't wait for the continuation. Also, it's interesting seeing many interested with Nora..... |
 |
| Awesome episode :) Really curious as to why Yato doesn't use Nora. Guessing it's gotta be something bad. |

Yukine's negative thoughts and his actions have been pricking Yato too much and that's why he was out of shape in this episode. Yeah blight was mentioned when Yato had just gotten Yukine. I believe it was episode 2, during the fight against the spider; Yato's arm was bitten and he warned Hiyori not to touch him cause she would also get the "blight". So now we know that Yukine's constant pricking leads to this. |
ftghb said: i watched episodes 1-6 pretty much all in one go....and hiyori absolutely annoys me to no end. First she literally forces yato give her "custody" of yukine....and despite his numerous warnings, spoils him rotten. And now she's lying and covering for yukine's sinning ass while Yato collects impurities on his body. I don't really blame yukine as much because the anime has done a good job of highlighting how difficult it is to accept being dead at such a young age, and not having a life to grow and experience with. But hiyori just spoiled yukine rotten, and from what i can tell causes no shortage of problems. the naive girl who wanted to be a mother figure for yukine enabled him to basically become an evil spirit. all her fucking fault. Though I don't like Hiyroi that much myself it's not really her fault that Yuki gives in to temptation, yes the sleeping together in 1 bed might have pushed some feelings/thoughts onto him that wouldn't have happened otherwise but she had good intentions and didn't do it to seduce/tease him. She is indeed a bit annoying in taking Yukine away but she didn't know the temple protected him and Yato at night. Is it really that strange she doesn't want someone to sleep outside in the cold? Yuki himself is just a brat whom can't control his emotions and takes it out by stealing stuff and doing "bad" stuff. He knows it's bad and it's hurting Yato but he does so regardless of it so who's reallt at fault here? Hiyori doesn't approve of this behavior since she stopped him from stealing the skateboard earlier on. It's not her fault he goes back to the store and steals it later, it's his own decision. I do like Yukine as character and I know his past must play a big part in his current behavior so I don't dislike him or anything, it's just that he's being a brat right now and I hope he'll change for the better soon. I don't approve of her lying to Yato but I do understand where she comes from, she knows Yato has killed regalia and told her he has to punish Yukine later for his misdoings, she probably thinks that if she woul've said "no" he would've punished him while "yes" might cover for him. She doesn't want to see Yukine get hurt because of something she said, not really a strange thing to do, plenty people in real life would've done the same. Like I said, I'm not even a huge Hiyori fan but what you said is just mindless bashing which doesn't make much sense in my eyes. |

| Yukine needs to get his mind sorted out. He's starting to annoy me. Yeah, he's a kid and can't still accept that he's already dead (plus that knowledge about Yato killing a Regalia), but I now find his drama too much. Guuuh.. Hiyori spoiling the already spoiled brat. |
| LOL dat Lion Girl is stalker XD Yato is totally Badass |
 |
| Would like an actual backstory now, if it's not too much trouble. The fight, although great, did not provide too much new information. Bishamon, her aggression aside, is intriguing. As well as her regalia, Kazuma. |
| Anime List ↳ click profile for recommendations ✨☆✨ |
| Awesome battle, Bishamon is so darn sexy and she has a large arsenal to use as well A lot of the other cast entered too, like Nora and Kofuku with her powerful clutch attack! xD |
| a little rush episode i think. But, still...yukine sure annoying in this episode...i wish he just die already or someone spank his ass or somethin'~ and Bishamonten's arc..wow as expected Miyuki Sawashiro-chii~ 8.8/10 Looking forward for next episode ASAP!! Prepare misogi for Yato!! xD |
 |
| That was a very cool fight, the different Regalias bring an interesting edge. That pink haired chick did a nice mahou shoujo transformation, lol. I really like Yato. In fact, I like all of the characters. Except Yukine's wimpiness at times is a bit jarring. But it's not too bad. |

"Komugi, are you there?" |
| So he's a god of calamity, Yato so badass. Bishamon is one sexy war god. LOL Kofuku so OP, she saves Yato's ass. Nice episode overall but I liked ep1-5 more than this. |
 |
| Dayum, that Bishamon is stronk. Having like 4-5 regalias on her at once. Kofuku is cute and insanely powerful... Nora is a mystery, she may be a regalia so powerful that not even Yato can handle that magnitude of power. |
 |
| Lol because of the seiyuu kazuma looks like the brother in AnE. I really like the scene he bowed to yato. No words needed to show that gratitude feel. |
| Pointers of the episode. -Bishamon hot as F. -Yukine was so darn annoying. -Nice action -Who the hell Nora really is?! |
 |
| What an episode, loved Kofoku and Bishamon's powers these episode. |
 |
| Run Yato run!!! |
 |
| looooved the battle! made me sad seeing yukine going through a hard time but it was amazing seeing bishamon's powers. |

| ~ Please My God tell Me what should I do ~ |
| the battle with bishamon was awesome *_* i hope to see more of kazuma as the series goes on yukine was kind of a pain to watch this ep tbh yato at least has that air of mysteriousness about him still looking forward to seeing where this will go :) |
| When Daikoku turned into a fan I thought, "What can this do?", and then it made that storm. And now I'm bowing down to their greatness. |

| I really liked the episode, damn I hope they'll make a second seaosn at some point in the future *throws 5 yen coin in every direction*. Bishamon is badass, her Regalia's are awesome and I kinda like her :) I do wonder how Yato would've fought back if Yukine wouldn't have struggled so much/if he wasn't weakened from his constant stings. Since she's been hunting for a long time he must've had some epic fights with her in the past. I wonder how the blights (right?) are going to go away since they can't be cleansed like the other time when that monster bit him. Very curious about Nora too, why does she have so many names? Is that even possible? I'd think a Regalia would be bound to 1 master but guess she proves that wrong. I do think/almost know for sure that she's the Regalia that Yato used when he was acting like a real "God of Calamity" and why he's refusing to call her name now. I hope they'll get the time to explain exactly what made him change and why he is such a care free/happy go lucky type of guy/god now, must've been something really big or important. |

I think all your questions are answered in the next two eps so no need to spoil you :D |

| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| Yukine, what are you doing ! Good episode, though. Honestly, it's the only show that I still expecting something. |

| Great episode. Bishamon was awesome and their fight was intense. Loving the way she utilizes her Regalia. Kofuku's intervention was as powerful as it was funny! And Nora was as intriguing as ever. On top of that, the OST never ceases to amaze me. Cannot wait for February 19. Really excited for the next episode, especially for what Kazuma has to say. He seemed to know Yato quite well and even respect him. Easily my personal favourite anime this season. |
| Everything was good in this episode except for Yukine being a kid :/ |
| i think yato is the strongest god. |
