Synopsis

In the ancient kingdom of Yamato, between the eras of gods and men, there was a time when the two coexisted. Miyo is chosen to serve as a human sacrifice to her village's god, Kippuuson-no-Mikoto, but she's not ready to die! Can Ozuno, a monk with the ability to speak one-on-one with the gods, save her life?

Preliminary (7/? eps)
Touge Oni is really an excellent manga. It is, at this point, a bit episodic: the protagonists visit a sequence of gods (kami) on various missions. However, a larger, very clever plot involving time travel is beginning to coalesce.

I particularly liked chapters 3.5 and 6.5, which step back from the story to focus on the story's first villain. The author deftly humanizes a character who seems in the first chapter to be unambiguously cruel and monstrous. I expect to see more of this subtle characterization as the story progresses.

The artstyle is clean,they made the kami designs look very humongous they feel daunting and suffocating which i liked,really reminds me of Higanjima or something like Freak Island,they are very far apart though just a slight season of that feeling.

Yeah i think it's ...
