I instantly watched it when I heard the popular voice actor Kamiya Hiroshi is the main character. When the series ended I was a little bit disappointed how there was only 12 episodes.

Story: Is about a god named Yato, a legendary mass killer god then changes later on to be a positive god. He wants to build a shrine and be worship by people. He then meets a girl named Hiyori, he made a promise to her that he will return her back into a human when she became half phantom and half human. Then he fights bunch of conflicts that explains humans falling into despair and ended up to suicide. He fights these "Phantoms" that drives humans into madness with a weapon that is called a "Shinki" I believe, the exact opposite of phantoms, Shinki are spirits that wants to live and regrets their decisions, they come into weapon physical form if it's chosen by a god. Yato has some conflicts with his Shinki and then keeps all the pain he gets from his weapon. The anime has some conflicts, the story didn't even finish and it wasn't anticipating as others.

Sound: I give sound a 10/10 rating because like any other anime they sync there soundtrack on to the anime. It definitely has the "japanese war good" and "traditional" theme. Which I enjoy.

Character: What makes this anime quite decent is the characters, there is a lot of characters that is hiding a lot of pain and there back stories are upsetting and can make you feel a "lucky" person as you are now.

Enjoyment: The action scenes were good, excellent swordsmanship/way of the samurai. I enjoyed it but not as I enjoy it a lot, there are a lot of scenes where a character falls into despair and makes foolish and stupid scenes, you can't blame them because they are "human". But then you have too because we're human too, I face-palm my ass off watching this anime. But then there will be pretty deep quotes and actions that awes me.

Overall: Noragami is like SAO, very over rated, I believe it deserves a lower rank around 500-1000, well that is just my opinion.
