Fantastic! I loved the first season, especially the characters and their interactions.

There's one thing I can't get over, though. Every time I year Yato, I can't help anticipate him shouting about despair, being the same voice actor as a certain depressed teacher and all.

The new season title was misspelled through out this article and even on the encyclopedia page, so I want to point out that based on the scan accompanying the article, it should be "Aragoto," not "Aragato" (which sounds like bad American pronunciation of "arigatou").[/url]

..."Aragoto,"

'Aragoto' is a Kabuki term which means acting and direction to represent a powerful and brave character's activities.
Regarding the etymology, a popular theory is that the term is derived from 'aramushagoto' (valorous warrior stuff). Some scholars think that also the word 'aru' (a deity's appearing) influenced the etymology of 'aragoto'.

it's hard to believe that the God of War can be unemployed.... since there're conflicts going on every single day.. Confused


Maybe if Yato moved to the middle east he would have a ton of work as a "god of war", but maybe he cannot leave Japan since he is a minor japanese deity.


these gods in norgami .. i guess they are related to Shinto?...

there was a series i saw in the past, Kamichu ? it's slice of life a bout a girl who became a god

well, i guess it's like Greek mythology.. they have a god for every single thing.. in Kamichu.. i think there's a god of Tires..

speaking of God of War.. the games are pretty good Smile

i got all platinums except for God of War Ascension...

Soooooooooooooo looking forward to this! I'm glad we don't have to wait incredibly long for it to air too.

Sadness that the event will be on August 8 and I'll be back in the States again on August 7. =(((
