anbar 's review for:
Noragami, Band 1
by Adachitoka
Looking forward to the next few volumes to confirm whether this is a 3- or 4-star series overall, once the story picks up (which it seems about to do by the end of vol. 1).
Beautiful artwork highlights this engaging urban supernatural adventure about Yato, a homeless, follower-less god trying to scrape together enough cash to build himself a shrine. He does this one 5-yen coin at a time--the standard money-offering, and the amount he charges for the odd jobs he does, from stopping bullies to finding lost pets. Hiyori is a girl who stumbles upon him when her spirit gets temporarily knocked out of her body saving him (she thinks) from getting hit by a bus. Can Hiyori learn to control this recurring condition before darker entities devour her? Will the vagabond Yato get his act together long enough to help her, and get closer to his own goals?
Engaging manga that strikes a good balance between dramatic supernatural quest and lighthearted humor.
