This was a very pleasant surprise! Noragami follows Yato, a homeless god, who wants nothing more than to build his own temple where people can worship him! However, since he is at the very bottom of all divine beings, he cannot be fussy about the jobs he gets offered and in this volume we see him help a schoolgirl who is being bullied, retrieving a lost kitten and helping someone fix their leaky taps! And all for the very cheap sum of 5 yen!! So it’s probably going to take him forever to amass the right amount of money he needs for a temple!

This opening volume was action-packed, fast-paced and full of slapstick comedy. I found myself frequently smiling and laughing throughout (especially the scene involving Yato, Hiyori and the “shinki� Hiyori found)!

I think there is huge potential for this series and I’m aware it’s also an anime so I’m tempted to check that out as well.

A thoroughly enjoyable romp!
