| YASS finally. Missed Noragami so much. That opening is really catchy, might be the one I'm listening to the most this season. My body is ready. |
| So outrageously average at best. Nice OP, nice ED, nice fight visuals, everything else is utter trash if not also offensive. Same as S1. Will keep watching for now in case the plot becomes interesting. |
| Finally, season two! Yato, Kamiya Hiroshi, Yukine, Yuki Kaji, god powers, humour, Kofuku!... Love them all. This gonna be epic! |
 |
| dat face tho |
stephen5000 said: Lots of nice setup here, though it's not a particularly impressive season premiere. I'm still not really fond of the humor on this show. I'd probably enjoy the show more if everything was super-serious. I'm convinced Yato has no real intention to satisfy his dream of being rich and famous, considering how he wastes the little money he has on junk, over and over again. It's more like he did something really bad in the past and is putting himself through living hell to atone for it. Thanks for that, I had problem explaining why I didn't enjoyed this episode - and it's like that they took the step back. From comedy to drama is something natural, but from drama to comedy once again... And I'm not fond of this humor neither. omfgplzstop said: Well, that was disappointing. They tried to reintroduce us to the world and setting despite this being a sequel, which made a lot of moments seem awkward and forced. It's alright, though, since it's only an issue with the start of the season. The second half was definitely better, and there shouldn't be any issues with the rest of the season, so yeah. Bishamon arc hype. Also this OP and this ED are MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM Whole episode was forced - naked Bishamon and Hiyori's panties were the worst ones. I hope that next episode will be better. I still haven't read the manga - it'll be available in my country next month, so I'm still waiting - but I really enjoyed the previous season. Can anybody explain me if the end of it was filler or not, because I'm not sure? |
| Aw yea, Noragmi's back baby :D Glad to see it's as good as ever along with its awesome OST :) |
 |
| Don't like this OP as much as last seasons, liked the episode though and it was nice to hear some of the tracks on the soundtrack like Noratan and lurk in the dark. |
| I'm so hyped for this season =D Bishamon's bed is HUGE. I bet she could fit all her regalia in it xD Well maybe not...But her bed is like the size of my room... I bet Yato will re-think helping Hiyori get her body back to normal after what she said about "sticking with him until he fixes her". She should just look for a Philosophers Stone xD |
| I am SO happy that Noragami is back! I like how it felt natural to be back on the action, no question mark faces for me. I had forgot some things, but when I saw them again I was just like "oooooh yeah that's how it should be!" Like the rend thing and stuff. The opening isn't quite as amazing as the one on first season, but I'm sure I will learn to like it a lot. Not sure because can't remember shit man, but did it jump back on the manga track? I think I have seen it before in different series that the first season goes for anime original ending and suddenly second season is back on track. Don't know, can't remember. Anyway I'm so excited for this all! Can't wait for the next episode... Or the one after that... So yeah... |

It's nice to hear, I've read somewhere that the end of first season was filler O.O And I really like Noragami, but I prefer it serious, so... The humor part is quite disappointing. Everyone was so plain. Maybe not Bishamon but this episode lacked something. Like spark? |
| Very good first episode! Glad to have noragami back! :) |

| Happy to see Yato back :D |

| Aww man, I was so happy for Yukine that he had finally met a guy his age that he could be friends with. It really sucks that he's Bishamon's shinki... I really hope it's not a trap. That smirk at the end was not comforting... |
 |
| The animation seemed really bad this episode, I have no idea why. Did anyone else notice this? Otherwise decent start, looking forward to Bishamon and what she'll bring to the table. |
| Glad to see Bishamon again <3 |
 |
| The expectations are not disappointed, the narrative picks up the thread of history discreetly. I hope that in the meantime, in addition to running the plot, is also able to characterize even more characters. Good job of Bones, drawings and animations are decent while the sets are of a good standard. |

| Very nice! It's maybe not one of the best animes out there but it's sure catchy and entertaining :) Could really see the comedy of season 1 back in this episode which is good cause I liked it. Looking forward to the next episodes. |
 |
| Loved how they kept my favorite OST (Conversation Heart) from last season when Bishamon welcomed in the new spirit to the household. Very heartwarming and soothing :) |

| Can't wait to see how things will turn out between Bishamon and Yato. And also if Hiyori will get her condition fixed but lol I almost doubt it. |
lalabella said: Can't wait to see how things will turn out between Bishamon and Yato. And also if Hiyori will get her condition fixed but lol I almost doubt it. Fixing it would require her having to sever contact with Yato and Yukine and cease to get involved in their world, which would remove her as a main character - so I doubt it. |
| Another season and again there is this problem with slapstick humor which will ruin the tone of the show. One moment someone died the other someone cracks up a joke. |
 |
| Would be sooo much better without Bishamon and her sub-plot. I watch Noragami for Yato. Not for this blonde chick. |
| Hope we will see an angry Yato at some point, because this bitch really needs to get it.(I don't care what their backstory is, I want her to bleed.) |
rizqyfadly said: I think i hear some kurapika's voice,.. Right?! Right. I think her seiyuu shines best when she's playing characters with a deeper voice like Kurapika and Bishamon. |
| The first season of Noragami was average to me. I felt like it wasted a lot of time on drama and it could've been more. The OP for Noragami Aragoto is pretty awesome, I love it. The episode itself was okay. I'm not a diehard fan of this series so I'm not going to sugarcoat my comments or defend it just because of its popularity. I'm liking Bishamon a bit more in this episode, I felt like I didn't get to know her that well in the first season. I was half expecting that long, gray-haired dude poisoning her bath water or some shit like that. |
| 臭い- |
| What a stylish S2 start! Lady Bishamon is really hung-up on killing Yato! Looks like there will be more trouble/conflict for the Shinki's (regalia) nice ED by the high-pitched Tia! 4/5. |
 |
1st thing I noticed was: Bishamon is so pretty that it hurts! The pink hair girl is going to do bad things... |
 |
| Bit of a slow recap episode, but at least the battles were good. The best thing about this series is without a doubt Yato. I still haven't warmed up to Yukine after last season's fiasco, and Hiyori feels like one of the most pointless tritagonist.... Let's hope this series can change my views a bit. I'm looking forward to seeing how this arc unfolds. |
| eyy the crew is back! Hiyori pantsu shots 10/10 The old soundtrack is still here and brings back that old Noragami feel, awesome. |

| Was really excited to hear that Noragami was coming back, and it did not disappoint! Will have to warm up to the new OP, since the last one was too great. Same with the new ED, though I liked it a lot after hearing it for the first time. The art and animation are still solid for me (just the right amount of kirakira). This will be the first time I'm watching anime in a long time, so thank you Noragami/Bones/Adachi Toka for inviting me back in!! I'm stoked for the new season, getting to know Bishamon more (such an interesting femme fatale style character *o*), and more HiyoxYato fluff >u> |
 |
| It seems that this season focuses more on Bishoujo Bishamon and her tragic past with Yato which is exactly what I want to see. What the heck did he do to gain such brutal enmity? |

| Nice to see it's picking up right from the last season and not filling with an 1st ep for filler. |
| And I thought they couldn't possibly beat the first season's opening, oh how naive I was |
| OP will take some getting used to. ED is bland and I'm not a huge fan. Felt pretty luke warm about this episode, but I think things will start ramping up again soon. |
