TV anime2014–20152 seasons25 episodesOriginal: mangaAdachitoka

Over 8 million copies

Yato may just be a minor god now, but he’s determined to make it big and he’s got a plan. Unfortunately, things just don’t seem to be going his way. He doesn’t have a single shrine dedicated to him, his partner has just quit, and now he’s got to find a new divine weapon. Just when things look bleak, he meets a girl named Hiyori and changes her life forever.

After Season 2, continue with Vol. 10

Where Season 2 leaves off in the original hasn’t been confirmed, so this starting point is an estimate.

After the first TV season, start Adachitoka’s original manga at Volume 4. The final Rabo episodes are anime-original, so this returns to the manga’s main story rather than continuing that ending.

After Noragami Aragoto, start Adachitoka’s original manga at Volume 10. This overlaps the season’s final arc and lets you read its changed or condensed ending before continuing onward; guides differ between the end of Volume 10 and Volume 11 for a direct starting point.

Before you read

Suggested reading (English · Kodansha Comics): Season 1 ends at Ep 12. Continue with Vol. 4. Reading notes: After the first TV season, start Adachitoka’s original manga at Volume 4. The final Rabo episodes are anime-original, so this returns to the manga’s main story rather than continuing that ending.
