With Bishamon badly injured and Yato and Yukin¨¦ arrested by the Heavens, Tenjin has invoked their very last hope: a Trial by Pledge. If the plan works, Amaterasu will pardon all perceived wrongdoings, but the stakes are high. Three gods must pledge the lives of their most trusted shinki. The score is tied when Daikoku volunteers himself as a sacrifice...
hiyori has become less dense in this volume (kiun's doing). noragami seems to have a habit of making the antagonists of previous volumes weird family members in later ones. ebisu is adorable as usual, and takemikazuchi's grown on me. he's essentially a teenager who had overprotective parents and is in a rebellious phase now. i'm excited to see how yato will face his "father" in the next volume.
I'm refraining on rating this yet due to the fact that I can't count it as 100% read. After my reading rampage of the previous 18 volumes of this series, I realized that it's on hiatus. And I'm PRETTY UPSET by that. I'm caught up in this series but I'm hoping it'll continue soon because THAT CLIFFHANGER.
Also I love this series. PLEASE DON'T END YET AAAA
This volume is still incomplete but I've read until the latest (chapter 74) and I'm pretty sure that chapter is included here so I'll just mark this as "read". I hope Adachitoka are recovering now though. The last chapter ended in such a cliffhanger.
Also, these two... they have me so whipped, and they serve the best Angst?
Okay that's it. Hope to hear some news for this manga because it's getting SO GOOD.
WONDERFUL! Yukine¡¯s birthday flash mob (yessssss!!!) is probably the single most hilarious and brilliant thing to happen in this series so far. It¡¯s also provided us with the much needed comic relief to get over the heavy, serious stuff from the previous volume. What happened after the flash mob though... MAN. Pray for my one year old son Yukine, because he¡¯s sure got it rough when it comes to women.
Yato is back again after a long, long (long) time. We finally can see what happened after he disappeared to chase after his father. Also, there was a small POV of Yuki. The final twist was so, so good! but the ending was left open (and the next volume will be out in June, so I'm a sad bunny).
EBISU IS SO FUCKING CUTE one of my favorite scenes. yato stirred the unmoving heavens and how tenjin, ebisu, and daikoku step up to save yukine and yato :(
This has been a long wait - 18 months with such a massive cliff hanger at the end of last volume! - but it was worth it. I'm glad Adachitoka is back in action after a hiatus due to illness of one of the duo. I do think they are trolling us a little with that cover, though. Yato in front of the moon? Just tell us already if he's Tsukuyomi!
Now hopefully just (ha!) a six month wait for the next volume release...
Aunque Yato logr¨® vencer al cielo, este clama por las cabezas de los traidores, es por ello que tanto Yukine como Yato son llevados ante la reina del cielo donde se les exige ser juzgados. De ser encontrados culpables, Yato ser¨ªa sentenciado a muerte mientras que Yukine pasar¨ªa toda su existencia encerrado en un peque?o candado por el resto de los siglos. Pero los dem¨¢s dioses a los que Yato ha ayudado no lo permitir¨¢n y deciden apoyar al dios, por lo cual comienza un juicio que m¨¢s bien es un juego de azar donde Yato resulta vencedor.
Al regresar a la tierra Yukine se propone ayudar a Yato a cumplir su deseo de ser un dios de la fortuna pero Yato sabe que no lograr¨¢ nada mientras no enfrente a su padre as¨ª que ahora est¨¢ m¨¢s decidido que nunca a vencerlo aunque eso signifique su propia muerte.
Derrotar¨¦ a mi padre y detendr¨¦ la cadena de discordia. En el tomo pasado les dije que pasaron un mont¨®n de cosas que me tuvieron mordi¨¦ndome las u?as y el final de ese tomo de verdad me hizo sufrir demasiado. Tanto que aunque ten¨ªa este tomo en mis manos desde hace un mes no ten¨ªa ganas de leerlo porque sent¨ªa que iba a sufrir mucho. Gracias a Yato-sama eso no pas¨®¡ o al menos al principio.
Pero dejen me voy por partes, en este decimonoveno tomo seguimos con la relaci¨®n de las shinkis con sus dioses. Esta relaci¨®n se va tornando cada vez m¨¢s compleja y hasta cierto punto algo siniestra pues no siempre es favorable para los shinkis.
En este tomo tambi¨¦n vemos un poco m¨¢s de la perspectiva de Yukine, lo vemos tratando de ser un mejor gu¨ªa para Yato, para evitar que lo vuelvan a considerar un traidor pero tambi¨¦n veremos un peque?o flash que nos da una idea de c¨®mo muri¨® y de verdad les juro que no les miento al decirles que muero de ganas por saber toda la historia que tuvo que vivir mientras fue humano.
Al ver a Yukine esforzarse tanto, Yato decide que lleg¨® la hora de enfrentar a su padre, as¨ª que se lanza a la batalla esperando comprobar que la teor¨ªa de su padre, en la cual asegura que si ¨¦l muere, Yato morir¨¢ junto a ¨¦l. Seg¨²n Yato esta teor¨ªa ya no ser¨ªa posible pues Hiyori ahora lo recuerda, pero al contarle esto a la chica ella se asusta pues ya una vez lo olvid¨®.
Y aqu¨ª viene la parte de mi sufrimiento, pues el tomo termina con Yato desapareciendo ante los ojos Hiyori y ahora tendr¨¦ que esperar meses por el tomo 20 que sali¨® hace muy poco apenas en Jap¨®n y es que con este tomo Panini ha alcanzado a la publicaci¨®n japonesa y ahora no tendr¨¦ mi dosis mensual del dios de la calamidad ?.
So I usually don't count manga towards my Goodread challenge but whatever it's a new year why not; hence why this is volume 19 and none of the other volumes have shown up haha. (Plus for the past couple of years I haven't been reading nearly as much manga as I did in high school, so I don't think it's going to influence my reading challenge that much anyway.)
Anyway, Noragami is my favorite anime/manga of all time. It went on hiatus for about a year but now it's BACK EVERYONE! There have been about 3 arcs so far, and this volume wraps up the 3rd arc, has a couple in-between chapters, then we start to go into the next arc. The first 2 arcs are SO SPECTACULARLY INCREDIBLE, WOULD DIE FOR THEM, while this 3rd arc didn't really blown my mind as much. It was great for world-building, but I think the combination of the hiatus (which made me forget a bunch of stuff that happened), as well as the fact that I found a lot of plot elements in the arc to be pretty confusing just turned me off to it a bit. BUT! I am crying in excitement that my favorite manga is back from hiatus bring the next chapters ON
Card¨ªaca la situaci¨®n con el cielo, eh. Esa Amaterasu no se tienta el coraz¨®n.
Como sea todo en este tomo iba bien por el lado c¨®mico con el seudo secuestro de Ebisu y la celebraci¨®n por el cumplea?os de Yukine y el primer encuentro de mi tr¨ªo favorito. PERO TEN?A QUE SALIR LA CHOTA DE NORA Y HACER SUS TONTERAS. AH. Que hasta Take y su af¨¢n de molestar a Yato me empiezan a caer mejor, caray. Los dioses deber¨ªan hacer una junta y colectivamente mandarla a fre¨ªr esp¨¢rragos.
Das kann nicht das Ende sein! Ich brauche mehr! - Und ich denke auch, dass es nicht das Ende sein wird, denn daf¨¹r endet dieser Band viel zu offen. Au?erdem sind viel zu viele, generelle Fragen noch ungekl?rt, die ich so nicht offen stehen haben m?chte. Bitte, ich flehe, lass die Wartezeit auf den n?chsten Band nicht zu lange sein!
Cortar el primer cap¨ªtulo del tomo anterior es una cabronada xD (en realidad, no, lleva los 4 cap¨ªtulos por tomo a rajatabla). El resto, es el momento de la transici¨®n, pero se nota que incluso en el arco graciosito de turno ya hay "oscuridad" y que no es gracioso, sino inc¨®modo... y efectivamente as¨ª se acaba desatando.
That's it, I am officially hooked on this series. Even though the action in this volume is not as fast or as much as has been in the last three volumes, I sat down and read this one cover to cover just to see what was happening in it. The cliffhanger in the last volume needed to be resolved and I sat in my classroom and read the whole thing while my students were working on their projects.
I bought this one super quickly because of the cliff hanger, but it was resolved pretty quickly. I don't remember much else about what happened in this volume, but it was pretty fun to hang out with these guys.
Irgendwie war es fast zu viel Plot f¨¹r einen einzelnen Band. Da der Mangaka so lange auf Hiatus war, war jetzt alles irgendwie so Schlag auf Schlag ...
Pop?acze si? zaraz. Hiyori zaczyna rozumie? co czuje do Yato a ten kurwa nara ide zabi? ojca co r¨®wna si? samob¨®jstwo. Zosta?y mi 3 tomy z czego jeden mam przy sobie a kolejne musze kupi?. Bogowie za bardzo si? wkr?ci?em
[?wietne kadry na Yatori polecam pi?? na pi??]

A bit of a filler book but I loved all the sweet moments and the end scene between Hiyori and Yato..! I'm so glad that all the characters have come so far and have matured!
