Noragami

Noragami is a unique, fresh and very easy to enjoy anime. I absolutely loved it.

The first season started slow. In fact the first season focused too much on creating a drama for Yukine. I'm not saying that's bad, of course the drama is good after all this anime successfully shows how it's characters are totally human, with the exclusion of the paranormals. But, we wanted equally more action and fights as well. There still some great parts as even the last three episodes were a bang. However, even if you don't really enjoy the first season, don't give up for there's a Champaign in the bouquet for season 2. The sequel season for Noragami is one of anime best sequels ever. It totally looked and felt better for the show. Immediately, from the first episode a brilliant arc was created. The remaining half of the show will seem confusing but continue to the last episode and everything will be clearer. For those criticising because of plot holes, I mean that's why there's an upcoming 3rd season. There's no wrong if it ended on a cliffhanger. Just wait for the third patiently. 7.9 is still underrated for such a great show like this.

I really enjoyed this show(note I've watched the sub of this), it had every aspect you look in an above average anime. It was very, very funny(the ova was really funny as well). Their is a very cool storyline and ability concept that does very good with moderate action throughout the show and there's also a very faint bit of romance. The characters really make this show, each one is completely unique and you grow to love them all even in a short 12episodes. The art and music are very appealing and fit the eye and ears very nicely. I have high expectations to the English dub of this!

Overall: 4.5/5. Why not 5/5? Well its kinda your typical shounen anime, but that doesn't mean that its not worth the watch. Its still very well made and a really fun watch that i think anyone would really enjoy. But i think its still missing that "Umph" that gives a really good anime that hook that makes it stand out from the typical to an outstanding, i have hopes that they'll find that spark in season 2 or the upcoming chapters of the manga(its still ongoing in japan as of this post).

P.S. Their is only 1 OVA episode released as of this post.

I can't tell you how amazing this show is! I highly recommend it to any fan of Japanese animation you will not be disappointed if you enjoy shows like bleach. Because this show has many similarities to bleach like it's strangely quirky characters and its dark and somehow comedic writing...

Right now as I write this there has only been one full season which I have watched all of there has been no announcement on if there was going to be a second one or not but either way this is such an amazing show that even if the story is never fully completed I highly recommend you watch it anyway!

PROS: Amazing animation, Great story, Lovable characters and epic action! CONS: The season ends...

Every episode is so good even if you prefer dub over subtitle. this anime is surly worth the watching. It made me laugh, shed tears, and have a connection with every second and minute. This anime gives great balance between living and action. I would say gives that feeling of enjoyment and hope. It truly has you on the edge of your chair, bed and even if your watching it from your hand held device saying things out loud in public because your so caught up in the moment and everyone looks at you weird kind anime cause its just that good.

Info: I came across this anime buy accident well looking for another anime on Hulu. Undoubtedly I immediately noticed the cover, soon after reading the paragraph it looked and sounded pretty interesting. Well at the time they only had two episodes for season one but had the whole season for season two. weird? any who, just after those two episodes I was super hooked on this show. I watched the rest of season 1 online then the rest of season two on Hulu.
