Noragami English Sub & Dub

About Noragami

Noragami arrives as an action anime by Bones (2014), and the premise is easy to summarize. At its core: In times of need, if you look in the right place, you just may see a strange telephone number scrawled in red. If you call this number, you will hear a young man introduce himself as the Yato God.

Another thread: Yato is a minor deity and a self-proclaimed "Delivery God," who dreams of having millions of worshippers. Without a single shrine dedicated to his name, however, his goals are far from being realized. He spends his days doing odd jobs for five yen apiece, until his weapon partner becomes fed up with her useless master and deserts him.

In an action series like this, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. It will appeal most to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights.

Production & Appeal

Animation is handled by Bones, so the studio's house style defines how Noragami looks and moves on screen. Within the action category, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. A community score of 8.0/10 puts it among the better-received action titles. Released in 2014, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
