To put it simply, Noragami is a story about a jobless, jersey wearing self-proclaimed god named Yato.
Story: 7
Noragami is a simple story that revolves around Yato, a self-proclaimed god that dreamed to have million followers and dozen shrine spread all across the country and to fulfill that dream, He is willing to grant any wish that people gives to him.
Noragami didn't cover much material from the manga in this first season, In this season, the story pretty much introduced the existence of God, Human, Divine Instrument and Evil Spirit and focused on Divine Instrument which is a former human..
Art : 8.
The art of this anime is similar if not the same with the Manga which is a good thing, because the manga had a good Character design and drawing style.
The animation was pretty much solid, based Bones of course.
but, since the original material itself didn't had any flashy movement, It's hard to say that the anime had pretty Amazing animation.
The only time when I found that the animation was amazing is near the end at Rabo Arc which is anime original.
Sound: 8.
With Hiroshi Kamiya as Yato and Yuki Kajii as Yukkine, this series had a pretty solid cast of voice actor, It does increase the enjoyment of the viewers because most of the cast fit perfectly with the character.
The soundtrack had a pretty unique touch in it that rarely found in any other anime and some of it stands out even more from the rest of it.
And the ending song of this series is one of the best ending song in my opinion, I could listen to it all day long.
Character: 7
Noragami didn't had a big cast of character, their character vary but I can't call them colorful, since most of them share the same trait which is 'comical', though being comical in itself is not that bad (at least for me).
To be honest, due to the very little material that this anime adapt, we didn't get that much development to the character, we just a get a little hindsight about each character past here and there without any deep exploration in it.
Enjoyment: 8
Simple Story, good animation and art and a catchy soundtrack, the enjoyment I got from watching this anime is pretty high, the comedy was hilarious and spot on, the plot is quite straight forward and fast paced, a good action here and there, and No overdramatized drama.
Overall : 8
It's truly a series worth a shot If you're a fans of Supernatural anime with a good action and comedy.
