Buy Noragami: Stray God 5 Illustrated by Adachitoka (ISBN: 9781612629957) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. Review: It's almost like if American Gods was set exclusively in Japan and was more "anime" - You know that mystery character from American Gods that nobody can remember? Well what if you based a story around him and set it in Japan. How does a god that requires belief to survive, do so when nobody can retain their memories of him? I marathon bought and read all the books in this series to date after watching the anime. This is not something that I normally do so this series occupies a special place in that regard. It does that thing that I like of mixing the mundane nature of the normal world with the other-worldliness of the other. Readers of Neil Gaiman's work or fans of the Bakamonogatari series will know that vibe. I say give it a shot. Despite already knowing most of the story from the anime I do not regret buying and reading the story in the "original" format. Review: Amazing =) - This book series is the best I've read so far! I really love it and has a great sense of humour, it has a great storyline too!

Great plotting and exciting coming this far in the story ...
This manga continues to deliver! The evil behind Bishamon is at work and the ultimate showdown between her and Yato draws near. We learn the story behind the hatred she has for him and where loyalties lie. Great plotting and exciting coming this far in the story but 'waaaaa' the ending! OMG, so totally devastating if what appears to happen really happens. Waaaaa! Need. next. volume!

Kodansha has done a very decent English translation of this series, with interesting background notes by the translators. If you finished Vol. 5 you are going to be very irritated because it's the ultimate cliffhanger. From Amazon's listing, it seems like Vols 6-10 will be released in English in the August 2015-Jan 2016 timeframe. Season 2 in the anime isn't going to come out in Japan till 2016, and God knows when it will be licensed in the US. So, US fans will have a dry period for an unbearably long time. At least if you own the physical books you can re-read them if you are suffering from withdrawal!

Noragami ist wunderbar und ich liebe diesen Manga einfach! Die englischen Ausgaben sind etwas größer als die deutschen. Hinten gibt es einige Informationen der Übersetzer, die ich immer mit großer Begeisterung gelesen habe, denn sie erklären manche Insiderwitze, die man sonst nicht verstanden hätte, geben Hinweise auf die Kultur oder begründen ihre Übersetzungen.

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