Why do you rank the Heaven arc last? Not that there’s a problem that you do, but you know, it’s my favorite arc so I’m curious.

No particular reason! It’s a great arc. I don’t think Noragami’s quality really varies from arc to arc so it’s just a matter of personal taste. I was personally more moved by the character interactions in the other arcs. I didn’t go into it being like “this is my least favorite arc!” I was actually surprised it was last, too.

Could you rank the Noragami arcs?

1) Bishamon Arc

2) Hospital Arc

3) Yato & Hiyori & Yukine Arc

4) Heaven Arc

I’m not quuiiiite sure how to divide some of these arcs (I think they could be divided further but don’t have to be) but here’s my ranking. I’m also really liking the current arc so far, even if we’re still in the set-up phase. It’s like a massive dose of All My Ships and the promise of incoming disaster. 

Noragami, thoughts about recent developments. First. Kazuma is acting like Jealous Phase Nora. Kazuma PLEASE stop. The last time Kazuma was framed in such a menacing way, it was when he tried to use a truth spell on Yukine. Bishamon was there to call him out on this, which temporarily prevented any further slippage from him. His companion is Yato this time, which is the worst possible combo, because their respective issues amplify each other. Those two together are a perfect disaster.

Yupppp. I’m strongly expecting disaster in the future chapters for everyone in the cast, quite possibly culminating in Father getting Yukine. Kazuma and Yato are really the Disaster Duo and whatever they attempt together is not gonna go well.
