Manga Review: Noragami: Stray God, Volume 16, by Adachitoka

Rating (Out of 5): ~4
Publisher: Kodansha Comics
Release Date: July 2016
Volumes: 17+
Spoilers?: No.
Volume: 1. 15. 17.

Goodreads Synopsis:

Now that Bishamon has found the legendary blessed vessel, she has one objective: to destroy the crafter once and for all. But freeing such a dangerous shinki is an act of high treason against the Heavens. Can she accomplish her goal before the execution squad comes for her?

Review:

Bishamon is out on her mission, not letting anyone know of her plans, even though her shinki want to help her. It leaves them feeling helpless, and Kazuma can't stand it when the gods decide that she's committing treason.
Yatogami is doing what he can, in the mean time, and Hiyori is feeling left out and helpless on her own. And then there's the Stray and Yato's father, working in the background, trying to mess things up. The shinki that Bishamon has found has her own agenda, as well.
I've fallen a little behind in this series, but I'm still obsessed. I love everything about it, and I can't wait to get my hands on the next one.
I love the little glimpses of humor, among all the major drama that's happening right now. Like Ebisu wanting money to rule all, and Kofuku getting drunk. The small moments of true caring are important, too; I like seeing how much Kazuma cares for Bishamon, and how even Hiyori wants to help her.
