Noragami: Stray God 8



  • Kodansha's latest U.S. hit! A supernatural action-comedy series with themes similar to Bleach, Soul Eater, and Death Note.
  • Anime DVDs and Blurays coming this summer from FUNimation!
  • Fun female and male characters give this series strong crossover appeal.
  • Ages 16 and up. Ongoing series.
  • Yato is a homeless god. He doesn't even have a shrine, not to mention worshippers! So to achieve his ambitious goals, he's set up a service to help those in need (for a small fee), hoping he'll eventually raise enough money to build himself the lavish temple of his dreams. Of course, he can't afford to be picky, so Yato accepts all kinds of jobs, from finding lost kittens to helping a student overcome bullies at school.

    Yato has a fateful encounter with Hiyori, a human who tries to save him from getting run over by a bus. Hiyori is hit by the bus, but somehow avoids serious injury. Further, it seems she's undergone a strange change where she can remove her spirit from her corporeal body. Yato seems somehow involved or responsible for Hiyori's change. Could Hiyori be the divine weapon that Yato needs?

    Praise for Noragami: Stray God 8

    "I don't think I often see a manga drawn this beautifully... Yato may not seem like a god in many respects, but I was won over by his depth of feeling for [others]." - SakuhinDB.com
    "Not only is the source material [the manga] great, but the studio working on [the anime] is firing on all cylinders as well." - Capsule Computers
