Plot
editHiyori Iki was a normal middle school student until she was involved in a bus accident while trying to protect a stranger. This incident causes her soul to frequently slip out of her body, and she becomes aware of the existence of two parallel worlds: the Near Shore, where regular humans and creatures reside, and the Far Shore, where phantoms (demonic beasts) and human souls linger. Through her soul, she meets the strange, namelessgodwithout a shrine, Yato. Yato is determined to make a name for himself out there by accepting any wish for 5 yen, including Hiyori's to fix her body. Alongside Yato's Shinki(Thần khí,Jingi)(or "Regalia" )—a weapon forged from the spirit of a deceased human's soul—named Yukine, the trio go through many adventures struggling with their friendship, identity, and pasts.

It was nominated for the 38thKodansha Manga Awardin theshōnencategory in 2014.[54]
Rebecca Silverman ofAnime News Networkgave a positive review to the first volume, stating that it "feels like set up, but it's good set up." She praised the characters and artwork, but called the first chapter "fairly weak", and commented that not all theplot devicesare used to their full potential. Silverman expressed: "With an other-worldly feel and some humor, as well as interesting use ofShintomythology, this is one of those books that reads faster than you expect it to. "[55]In his review of the first volume, Ross Locksley from UK Anime Network noted that the first chapter has elements fromRumiko Takahashi'sRin-neandClamp'sxxxHolic,but that it "didn't compare well to either", adding however that his impressions improved after the third chapter. Locksley also favorably compared Adachikota's artwork toTakeshi Obata's inDeath Note,and concluded that the first volume is "an uneven start forNoragami,but overall a positive one. "[56]
In another review of the first volume, Matthew Warner ofThe Fandom Postmade positive comments about the story and artwork, highlighting the backgrounds as "the best aspect of the book's art". Warner expressed: "With a nice bit of Japanese folklore and a likable pair of main characters, this volume brings the series off to a solid start."[57]Danica Davidson ofOtaku USA,likewise, gave a positive review to the first volume, calling it "a cute start with a nice mixture of supernatural and fun."[58]
Anime
editTheron Martin of Anime News Network made a positive review of the series, praising the story, visuals, and its well-balanced mix of comedy and drama, criticizing however the last three episodes, calling them "anticlimactic". Martin also compared the series toBeyond the Boundary,and noted similarities between the God/Regalia relationship and the Meister/Weapon relationship inSoul Eater,commenting however that both series are "fundamentally different." Martin concluded by saying: "Overall, whenNoragamiis good, it is very good, but it tapers off too much at the end and rushes its last arc. "[59]Gabriella Ekens, of the same site, commended the series, praising its plot, world, and characters, calling Yato the "big reason whyNoragamiworks ". Ekens also said that the series" balances both aspects ofshōnenandshōjoanime ", calling it a" middle ground between shrine-focused slice-of-life romance "(likeGingitsuneandKamisama Kiss), and a "supernatural action" (likeBleach), also noting similarities toInuyashaandSoul Eater.Ekens ultimately stated: "Noragamiis just solid, all-around, well-constructed entertainment. It'll work for a lot of people, whether they're looking for romance or action or comedy. "[60]
Chris Beveridge ofThe Fandom Postalso praised the series. In particular, Beveridge commended the work of studio Bones, stating that they made it "a fully realized world in so many ways", and that "[w]ith strong background design and some solid choreography in the action sequences", they elevated the original material "just a bit more", concluding thatNoragamiis "an appealing show that knows how to work its magic well and the overall presentation is certainly a strong one."[61]Sheena McNeil ofSequential Tartcommended the series as well for its plot and characters, commenting that it has a "nice balance of drama, angst, and humor that seems very natural given the circumstances." McNeil ultimately expressed: "It's a powerful anime. The story and characters touched me and will stay with me. I look forward to watching it again and for more to come."[62]Kyle Mills ofDVD Talkpraised the series for its characters and humour, noting that the series never gets "too overly dramatic" and that it is "mostly lighthearted, bordering on the line of plain comical sometimes." Despite criticizing the "arc format" of the series and the "underdeveloped" antagonist of the first season, Mills ultimately calledNoragamian "immensely entertaining show", and that it "built and established an incredibly rich world with well developed characters."[63]
IGNincludedNoragamiamong the best anime series of the 2010s.[64]
