Noragami

History 3/10 Noragami has the kind of story that attracts in the first ep. and then gets lost in the void. It starts with an interesting and intriguing theme, but leaves all the initial construction to start a cliché novel. From there, starts shooting everywhere: creates characters to try to strengthen the initial idea, but fails stupidly because of poor and insufficient development. The ending is catastrophic, being just a relief in the plot. Conclusion: Noragami fails miserably in the whole central idea, but has some interpersonal moments between characters that "save" the anime from pure failure. Art and Sound 5/10 There is not much to stand outhere. It is nothing close to the art direction of the Makoto Shinkai films, the absurd harmony with the plot of the Studio Ghibli films or the touching and expressive character of Sangatsu no Lion, but it is also not to be thrown away. In the end, it is enough. Characters 2/10 We have come to Noragami's big problem. At first, we have the protagonist disguised as a charisma just to appear to have some identity. Beside him, a generic dere whose only existential function is to remain beside the protagonist, being used only at the beginning and forgotten by everything else. After a few walks, they find the third protagonist: a lost boy with a dark past whose narrative function is to be immature and to become mature. The production rushed this one so much that it reminded me of the "emotional and difficult" beginning of Tokyo Ghoul. This ends the cliché trio of shounen: the protagonist, with whom the majority without a critical sense identifies, the childish friend and the woman. [In common shounens, the protagonist can be replaced by the childish, which matures throughout the anime, and the childish friend becomes the intelligent the charismatic, or the dumb one.] About the supporting characters, it's amazing how they all have "a past" with the protagonist, what, again, serves as a cover for the problematic plot. The supporting characters are the most superficial thing. They just surge to create a situation with the protagonist, always starting from the "unknown past" with him. The highlight is for the villain: usually, when it comes to the villain, even the greedy studios are concerned with giving some personality, but, in Noragami, he arises from the same "unknown past" as Yato. In conclusion, everything about Noragami's characters is deplorable and shameful, from protagonists made with the utmost laziness to disposable support characters. Enjoyment 2/10 Even after so many problems, enjoyment is subjective to everyone. Personally, I only say that I slept in the last episodes and found the entire anime a waste of time. Overall 3.5/10 Noragami is a shame of the modern industry, using and abusing the "wow first episode", cliché and superficial characters, artificial development and a conclusion that makes no sense or is trustworthy with what was proposed. I didn't see anything that was constructive or entertaining in the anime.

The perfect balance of spiritual conflict and slice of life comedy. Story - 8/10 Noragami is another installation of a trend of recent series that are trying to incorporate youkai battle plots with a light hearted slice of life/comedy/romance element, and surprisingly Noragami is able to pull it off. Without giving away any spoilers, the story is quite unique because it is able to find a great balance between series scenes and funny moments. The drama and action are enough to keep you enticed, and the RomCom isn't so overbearing that the side stories take away from the main plot. The only part of the storyI didn't care for was Yukine's arc. I thought it was a bit too dramatic and lasted too long, but if you can get over his annoying immaturity for a few episodes the rest of the series is great. Art- 8/10 the artwork of Noragami is pretty good, with a unique op and closing to boot. The fighting scenes aren't over done, the scenery has great detail, and all the characters have unique characteristics compared to the typical anime types. Character -10/10 The best part of Noragami is the characters, literally the only one that wasn't a 10/10 was Yukine. However, I realize he had to have more drastic development than other characters so I'm still giving this section a 10/10 Enjoyment/Overall - 8/10 overall I thought Noragami was a great series, and has a lot to offer everyone. It is funny, exciting, and heartfelt at times without having too many filler episodes. My only complaints are the distribution of episodes to certain arcs, and the fact that the series itself is only 12 episodes. I feel that if it had been given 25 or so, there would have been more time for better plot development and the ending wouldn't have felt so rushed. But alas 12 is all we get, and I would recommend this series to anyone, and especially those who like sword play and spiritual world genres.

Up until today, i've never heard of Noragami. It is relatively new but if my friend haden't asked me to watch this with him i probably wouldn't have seen it for a while. That being said i'm glad i took a couple hours of my time to watch the whole first season in one night. I didn't think much of it at first, it looked cool but I personally didn't think it was going to be anything special. This show surprised me ALOT, this a great anime with very little flaws. Story (9). The story is great, I love how it took time to developthe characters and relationships without sacrificing action or excitement. The drama between the characters worked good as well very rarely being boring. In the first few episodes I thought the show was going to go one way, and it evolved a great deal molding into a fantastic plot without holes. The story picks up quickly as well, getting right to the point in the first episode and then continuing from there. There are no major plot twists, but there are alot of unexpected actions that happen causing my interest to grow. The story takes time to develop the character relationships and still have a central plot point, then in the last few episodes it introduces the main antagonist. At first glance this wouldn't really work well, but when you see the drama between characters you understand why it was structured like this and you see how it actually works. Each episode isn't just about the drama though, episodes typically have excitement and an obstacle for the characters to overcome while progressing the story simultaneously. Animation (10). Oh lord, this animation was spot on perfect, bones did a fantastic job making the show look gorgeous. All the characters have vibrant colors and unique and pretty designs. The environments look good and clean as well. The CGI effects aren't overused at all and look perfect where ever they're placed. Water and rain effects look fantastic and blend really well with the overall animation. This is a very colorful series, having unique and bright but real looking characters and creatures. The Phantom creatures look bright and beautiful, very unique as well. The action scene choreography is done perfectly and looks very smooth and fluent. Overall the animation is spot on perfect, everything is pretty and interesting to look at while not being over done. Sounds (9). This really goes without saying, the sounds are all crisp clean and very interesting in the case of characters using special powers or other supernatural creatures as well. The soundtrack works very well too, the music binds perfectly with fight scenes and doesn't eclipse the action. The intro and outro songs are very good as well, nothing amazing but they set the tone well and I didn't mind listening to it every episode. Characters (8). The main characters, Yato, Hiyori, and yukine all worked very well and served as great protagonists. Yato is a very likable guy and is humorous as well. He is also a badass and shows that he truly cares for his friends. Hiyori is very good as well, her voice acting performance was great and she brought alot of emotion and depth to the show. Yukine came off initially as annoying, then he grew on me and by the end I liked him alot. This show does a great job at making you care about all three main characters and being concerned about what happens to them. Another thing the show does well involves the antagonists. Being introduced late in the series normally it would feel like they're shoehorned in. In the few episodes they were there they actually made great villains with a decent back story. They really gave Yato a struggle and the show does a good job at making you hate them. The supporting characters were very good as well, they didn't eclipse the main cast but at the same time they all had great unique personalities and brought a great presence to the show. They all got equal screen time for the most part and they had some funny, intense and subtle moments. It doesn't overcrowd you with a shit ton of supporting cast it nails just the right amount. The show also does a great job at developing the relationship between the main characters, they all have really good chemistry and you really get the sense that they're friends. The relationships evolve and change as well and it's very interesting to see unfold. I just really liked this anime, it surprised me alot and i was glad with the results. The story had good closure as well and had a good subtle ending. It also gave me excitement for the next season. This show is light hearted and funny but at the same time carries a decent amount of emotion and action at the same time. I wouldn't say it mixes the action and comedy but it does a great job at distinguishing it and at the same time binding it together. The episode endings didn't leave me demanding more but i was very interested with the story. I highly recommend this show i enjoyed it alot and it was very solid all the way through, if you liked my long review (I'm sorry) please give it a thumbs up (:

I had hopes for this. Shrine-less god Yato strives to get recognized by scribbling his cell number anywhere he can and granting the wish of any worshiper for the low, low price of 5 yen. I really loved Yato and was prepared to follow him on his journey to be #1 god. But this is not what the series is about. The series is about this annoying little girl who constantly gets in his way and causes problems in his life to the degree he almost died. Then when she begs people to save him he is all appreciative andgrateful that he has her in his life despite her being the root cause of the problem in the first place. A lot of unnecessary drama. And what annoying anime chick would be complete without an episode of amnesia? In summary Yato makes absolutely no progress in his quest and gains a truly annoying companion. Sucky by all accounts.
