NARRATIVE TEXT (12 episode)

v v ORIENTATION

(episode 1)In times of need, if you look in the right place, you just may see a strange telephone number scrawled in red. If you call this number, you will hear a young man introduce himself as the yato god. Yato was a minor deity and a self proclaimed “delivery god” who dreams of having millions of worshippers. Without a single shrine dedicated to his name, however, his goals are far from being realized. He spends his day doing odd jobs for five yen apiece. One day Yato answers a five-yen prayer to defeat a phantom that has appeared above a school using his Regalia, Tomone. Shortly after the battle, however, Tomone decides she was fed up with Yato and requests to have his contract with her terminated.

Now without a Regalia. Yato takes up a new request to find a missing cat named Milord. Whilst he was doing that, a girl named Hiyori Iki spots him walking into the path of an oncoming bus and dives into it to save him. She pushes him out of the road but was hit by the bus herself, and afterwards finds her spirit separated from her body, although she was able to return to it safely.

v COMPLICATION

(episode1)Whilst recovered in hospital, Hiyori hears strange voices before having another encounter with Yato, who formally introduces himself as a god. Some time later, Yato finds Milord but was attacked by the phantom. After Hiyori helps Yato escape, she learns that the incident from before has resulted in her becoming a half-phantom lying between the worlds of the living and the dead, causing her spirit, which has a cat's tail, to sometimes leave her body.. Hiyori Iki doesn’t know Yato was a god, so she was shocked to know about it. She also shocked when she discovered her soul left her body, and she’s now a wandered spirit. Hiyori was now introduced to the world of the gods and Shinkis whenever her spirit left her body. It’s problematic for her to suddenly have her soul leave her body, so she made an offered to Yato hope that he’ll find a way to fix her unusual problem. He agrees, and now Hiyori accompanied Yato on his jobs in hopes that he’ll finally focus on fixing her spiritual problem. As you can see, there no talked of armies of evil spirits invading the city or a bad guy conquering the world.

Yeah, her soul escaped her body. It’s OK though, because she managed to come back. The problem was that her soul would keep on slipped out of her body, and she needs to fix this right away.

After learning of the situation, Hiyori gives Yato five yen as a fee in order to help her get back to normal and he accepts it.

Scene of episode 1:

(episode 2) As Hiyori ends up drifted out of her body more often than not, she took advantage of her new agile form. Despite being reminded by Hiyori about the job she paid him for, Yato insisted that he couldn't do anything until he got a new Regalia. Assuming a Regalia could be made from any phantom, Hiyori got in search of one, only for it to turn out to be a really hostile one. Hiyori attempted to fight the phantom herself but was stopped by Yato, who was injured in the process. After retreating to treat his 'blight' wound, which could spread if left untreated, Yato explained that Hiyori's tail was what connects her to her physical form, and if it was cut, she would die. The phantom returning, and Yato spotted an uncorrupted spirit and claimed it as his new Regalia, which took the form of a white katana, allowing Yato to defeat the phantom. Yato afterwards decided to name his Regalia Yukine, which transformed into the form of a teenage boy.

Scene of episode 2:

(episode 3) As Yukine tried to adjust to his role as Yato's Regalia, he was scolded by Yato over allegedly having dirty thoughts about Hiyori, explaining that they shared the same mind and body. Later, the three were summoned by the God of Learning, Lord Tenjin, who had taken on Tomone, now named Mayu, as one of his new Regalia. Tenjin commissions Yato to take care of some phantoms that had appeared near a railway track. Whilst fighting the phantoms, the three encountered a 'storm', which Yato and Yukine managed to destroy before it compeled a schoolboy to walk into the path of a train

Scene of episode 3:

(episode 4) Yato took Hiyori and Yukine to meet a fellow god named Kofuku, and her Regalia, Daikoku. In the middle of their talk, Yato was summoned by a suicidal office worker named Usuke Urasawa, whom he accidentally knocks off the top of a building in the process. On the way down, Usuke explains how his luck and fortune went downhill in pursuit of love for a girl, who turns out to be Kofuku, revealed to be a Binbougami (God of Poverty) who causes bad luck and misfortune to those around her. Yato manages to use Yukine to sever Usuke's ties and memories to Kofuku, before ensuring he lands safely. After Yato collects his payment, Kofuku tells Hiyori that Yato had once killed before. Later, as Yato told Hiyori to go to Kofuku and Daikoku should anything happen to him, Yukine encountered a strange woman, who was revealed to be Nora--Yato's former Regalia.

scene of episode 4:

(episode 5) After Yato taught Yukine how to make a borderline, which regalia could use against phantoms, Hiyori decided to have Yukine live in her house, feeling Yato couldn't look after him properly. After some reluctance, Yato agreed to let Yukine stay with her. Yato ended up sneaking himself too, keeping Yukine in check before he got any ideas about Hiyori. The next day, Yukine ran away after Hiyori stopped him from stealing a skateboard, with Yato later explaining to her that any impure thoughts Yukine had results in pain for himself. Whilst running away, Yukine encountered a little girl, which he later learned to be the spirit of a girl who died in a traffic accident. However, the girl ended up getting possessed by a phantom and became consumed by it, forcing Yato to use Yukine to defeat her against his will.

Scene of episode 5:

(episode 6) Yukine, depressed about being used by Yato to kill the girl spirit instead of saving her, stole the skateboard he had his eye on before. When Yato stopped him, Hiyori appeared, deciding to cover for Yukine by claiming she bought it for him. Just then, a god named Bishamon, holding a personal grudge against him, appeared and attacked Yato. Hiyori called Kofuku and Daikoku to help, tracking Yato's location using her sense of smell. However, Kofuku's attempted to stop the battle ends up making things worse by causing a huge hole with raging storms appear. Bishamon tries to took advantage of the situation, dealing some damage to Yato, but was urged by one of her regalia, Kazuma, to retreat to protect her other regalia.

Scene of episode 6:

(Episode 7) Hiyori's presence as a spirit was discovered by Kazuma, who chooses to keep this a secret from Bishamon, before telling Hiyori that if nothing was done about Yukine, Yato will die. Later that night, as Yato was helping out at a convenience store, Yukine was caught trying to steal some charity money. Just then, another phantom appears, and despite Nora's presence causing Yukine unease, Yato assures him that he was his regalia and manages to defeat the phantom with him.

Scene of episode 7:

(Episode 8) Yato and Yukine are called to Hiyori's school at the request of a bullied student, with Yato giving him a certain something to use. Whilst at the school, Yukine laments that he never had the chance to go to high school himself and make friends with others. The student was driven by a phantom to confront the bully using a knife Yato had given him, but he manages to hold himself back and disperse the phantom with his own will. Yukine, however, gives into his frustration and starts breaking the school's windows, causing Yato's blight to spread further. As Hiyori discovers this, she risks herself to try and bring him to Kofuku and Daikoku, getting blighted herself in the process. Kofuku and Daikoku shut them out with a borderline.

Scene of episode 8:

(Episode 9)Daikoku and Kofuku only allow Hiyori to come through the borderline so she can cleanse her blight, stating that Yato will die unless Yukine receives punishment by ablution. Although Daikoku manages to enlist the help of Mayu, he struggles to find a third Regalia to help perform the ablution. Rejecting the thought of calling on Nora, as she might kill Yukine, Hiyori goes to Bishamon's shrine to request Kazuma's help. As the three Regalias get together, they discover Yukine's back was covered with phantoms and begin their ablution, in which Yukine must endure pain until he confesses to his sins, or otherwise transform into a phantom himself. Yukine admits his crimes and expresses his jealousy of the living and his envy of what they have. As Yukine's condition worsens, Hiyori and Yato calls out to him, reminding him that they are his friends, and the name Yato gave him was that of a person's. Hearing this, Yukine apologises for all the bad things he had done, allowing the ablution to be successfully carried out. With both Yato and Yukine back to normal, they both feel thankful towards Hiyori for saving their lives. Meanwhile, Nora has awakened a god named Rabo, who has a grudge against Yato.

Scene of episode 9:

(Episode 10) As Yukine takes up a part time job at Daikoku's food stand to help repay what he stole, he and Hiyori hear from Miyu about how Tenjin banished one of his regalias for stinging him with blight. Meanwhile, Tenjin informs Yato, who finally contemplates fulfilling Hiyori's request, that he may be able to fix her problem if he cuts his ties with her. On New Year's Day, as Yato and Yukine fight a group of phantoms, Hiyori, who was on a shrine visit with her friends, was lured out by Nora, who sends her own phantoms to chase after her. As Hiyori was saved as the phantoms are dissolved by dawn's sunlight, Nora informs her about Rabo and his desire to kill Yato, telling her to stop existing. After Yato and Yukine manage to defeat all the phantoms, they catch up to Hiyori, only to find she has no memory of who Yato was.

scene of episode 10:

(episode 11) repressed memories. As Yato finds himself unable to beat Rabo and Furuhime, the two take their leave, with Furuhime stating she will return Hiyori's memory if Yato can defeat Rabo. It was revealed that Rabo was a calamity god, a god who answers malicious wishes to kill people, phantoms, and gods, who once worked alongside Yato, who was also a calamity god himself. As Yato becomes conflicted over whether restoring Hiyori's memory was the right thing to do, Yukine shows Hiyori a picture book detailing the times they have spent together. Meanwhile, Furuhime reveals that Hiyori's memory was further waning, shown when she loses her memory of Yukine, and will leave her as an empty vessel if nothing was done. Despite knowing the risks involved, Yato and Yukine resolve to restore Hiyori's memory.

scene of episode 11:

v RESOLUTION

(episode 12) Yato and Yukine warp over to Rabo's shrine, mistakenly dragging Hiyori along with them. Yato immediately engages Rabo and Furuhime, only to be easily fended off and taken prisoner by a spell of Rabo's which enshrouds the victim in a sphere of water. Hiyori manages to pull Yato out, allowing the fight to resume. Unsatisfied with Yato's performance, Rabo decides to destroy the jewel-like sphere containing Hiyori's stolen memories, causing her to fall unconscious. Angered by this, Yato appears to awaken to his former self as a god of calamity, and easily kicks Rabo into the stone cliff surrounding the site. Having seen that Yato had returned to his old self, Rabo absorbs the storm which had been raging from above, thus merging with its phantoms. An exchange between the two causes boulders to loosen, one of which heads directly for Hiyori. Yato saves her just in time, and holds her tightly to his body in a protective gesture. Hiyori's memories are awakened by his scent, and she returns to consciousness. Realizing he has to get rid of Hiyori, Rabo takes hold of her, but was finished off by Yato and Yukine with a move used for cleansing phantoms. As the three make their way back home, Hiyori tells Yato and Yukine that she never wants to sever her ties with them.

Scene of episode 12:

v RE-ORIENTATION

However many wishes we grant, people will always fear,loathe and forget Gods of calamity. For better or worse , people’s emotion are always fickle . that is the way of things

MY FAVORITE CHARACTER

Let’s now talk about my favorite chracter. I think mentioning the side character might spoil the fun of the show. Anyways, the main character is Yato

Yato is a pretty cool character. He behaves like the typical shounen character that acts like an idiot and often used for comic relief, but he also transforms into a bad ass when the situation calls for it. It is old school shounen at its finest. This guy slowly becomes complex though as the show progresses. He has a cold attitude towards everything, and I bet his dark past has something to do with it. He would say questionable things in such a harsh manner that it’s a bit surprising given how idiotic he came off before. His stand on suicide is probably the one that struck me hard the most, because his belief is so black and white that I wanted to hate him. The show actually wants you to hate Yato, and he just accepts it knowing full well that he deserves it. His cold personality is just a part of it though, because this guy is also caring. He lacks the skills to properly express it, but he is also the most caring person in the world. The list of all the sad things that happened to him is slowly revealed by the anime, but Yato just shake them off and move on. It makes him a cool anti-hero, and it’s amazing because he is introduced as a typical shounen lead before. His transformation into an anti-hero is so precise that I haven’t seen it done in a long while. Three hundred anime and this journey still have some surprises for me. Anyways, Yato’s past and his transformation is a big part of the show. His dark past and cold nature is a reason why Hiyori is attracted to him. His anti-hero personality is an important part of the show as well, because it buffers Yukine’s annoying personality.

Sight and Sound

Anime/animation Manga/comic

Adachitoka is a pretty awesome artist. His designs are strongly shounen influenced and his panels really scream the genre. I love how consistent they are though, and the use of inking to really make every panel look elaborate. Character design is pretty amazing because body composition is solid. He captures the appeal of typical shounen characters that have slender bodies and pretty faces. The strong fierce eyes, attached to that cleanly designed face, are pretty awesome to stare at. Yato is incredibly fierce in the manga version and he exudes that manly shounen appeal most slender characters have. He’s handsome, hot, and bad ass at the same time. I did love how they toned Yato’s intensity down in the anime though, because he’s more relatable in the anime considering the character driven story. Adachitoka’s design might look typical shounen but he makes up for it with insane details. I also love the use of different angles of his panel making him draw Hiyori in different views to suit her cat tail spirit personality. His design is completed by the strong inking on the hair and the smart shading on the outfits. It brings the characters to life as you read the panels. Of course, this isn’t present in the anime but the strong details are still intact, and Bones really did a good job capturing the author’s vision. The heavy atmosphere of the manga is established in the anime, and the consistent expressive faces are wonderfully intact.

The animation is pretty great. The use of different camera angles, characters flying all around and the fast paced sequences are perfectly captured by the animation. It’s able to keep up with the insane fight scenes that are littered all over this anime. My favorite is Yato fighting Bishamon in a short sequence, but guns are fired, whips are lashed and a lion goes on a rampage in that small exchange. The true beauty of the animation appears in the last two episodes though, where the show really went full shounen to end the show. The way it utilized the background and the damages the characters took is so wonderfully animated. Bones makes consistent animation, and I love them for that. They really captured the beauty of the manga. From the light hearted comedic moments to those heartfelt ones, the animation is always on point. From killing phantoms to Hiyori walking on the electric wires, the animation really established the wonderful world the characters move around in. The character expression is also on point, and this is important because that basically makes up eighty percent of the anime.

Overall Score

8/10 “The character driven story is amazing and this shounen story slowly becomes an engaging personal journey I’m sure any viewer would appreciate.”

This is a wonderful anime. It has a strong story, incredible characters and action to balance it all out. The experience this anime gives you is unlike any other, and I’m sure it’ll stay with you because that’s just how effective this anime is at its storytelling. I’d knock points at the lack of action, but that’s a minor thing. I’m sure the second season is already fixing that problem. If you love character driven stories then you’ll love this anime. If you appreciate shows that makes an effort into making the characters relatable and engaging then you’ll love this anime. If you love good shounen then you’ll love this, no doubt. It’s a really solid show so I highly recommend it. (BY : EIRENS)
