Noragami: Stray God 4

After tearing through the first three volumes, I hesitated buying this one based on other reviews, but l'm glad I finally did. This installment is the best in the series, in my opinion. First of all, this seems to be the point in which the anime storyline took a serious departure from the manga, so I feel like I really got my money's worth in extra character and story development. I didn't think I would enjoy hearing Bishamon's backstory but it really helps in understanding her character. Bishamon goes from being the simple antagonist who Is just out to settle a grudge with Yato to being a multi-dimensional complicated character who seeks revenge for the death of her shinki, in part to ease her own feelings of guilt. After reading this volume, I can see that Yato and Bishamon are very similar in that they care deeply for their shinkis, although this affection manifests itself in entirely different ways...Yato looks for that one spirit to form an unbreakable bond with whereas Bishamon takes more the crazy cat hoarder approach. We also see Yukine grow and mature since the ablution and get to know his hopes and fears regarding Hiyori. I felt like his part of the story got just as much play as Bishamon's and made him much more interesting and likeable. Looking forward to reading the next volume!

Came super fast and in nice condition

Arrived as expected. This was a gift for my brother as he is collecting the whole series of this manga

I love Noragami, and it just gets better with each volume. I'm following both the anime and the manga now - the anime is very faithful to the manga, but the manga has more details. The story can be both funny and poignant, and the hints of romantic tension between the main characters is both funny and sweet. I'd recommend this series to anyone from young teens to adult!

There was a little damage to the book but I am happy overall! I tape the corners on my paperbacks so they don’t split like this so it should be fine once it’s back together.

This series is AMAZING. Starts off a little slow but man has it gotten great! I read it mainly on kissmanga.com BUT I wanna support the series so I have decided to buy all the books, plus I love collecting my favorite series! Highly recommend this series for all anime/manga fans.

The cracks in Bishamonten's family open up as dissent among her shinki lead to betrayal, soap-opera style. Yato is conflicted between helping Hiyori return to full-human and losing their friendship as a result. Stray is keeping things lively with her mischievous and sinister dealings. Yes, Kazuma is still moe! Note: Yikes, I've become that person.

Definitely not a younger kid manga but so good and as always, amazing artwork and storyline!

Everything fine

The manga came in perfect condition, undamaged, and very quick too! As for the story itself, I'm finding it incredibly enjoyable! I've committed to collecting the whole series because it's just amazing. Would definitely recommend!

Surprisingly this volume wasn't damaged and that's enough decent now to quality that was great as well

Great book

Great quality.
