So, Ana recommended I watch Noragami. I watched the first episode, and loved it. Seriously how have I not found this show until now?! It's awesome! Thanks, Ana! 
HEY HEY if you like noragami, might i recommend adachitoka's (the duo who create the manga!) previous work,
ALIVE: the final evolution! its a manga, not an anime, but its really excellent, about a world where people gain "superpowers" from aliens that came to earth to die; theres huge art improvement from beginning to end, and i cry because in the manga, yato from noragami can look SO ALIKE to taisuke from alive ____(:'''3/L)___ and while im at it, id also totally recommend giving the noragami manga a read: the anime is good, but it is different from the original! also you can get in on some beautiful art >:3c
AND WHILE IM HERE ill rec some currently airing anime!!! because this season is shaping up to be pretty neat
BOKU NO HERO ACADEMIA/MY HERO ACADEMIA-EXCELLENT EXCELLENT SHOW FROM AN EXCELLENT EXCELLENT MANGA!! i was SUPER STOKED to hear bnha getting an anime because it is a wonderful story with wonderful characters!! its set in a world where nearly everyone is born with a "quirk", or a "superpower", whether it be invisibility or the ability to manipulate gravity or even growing to the size of a building! everyone except mIDORIYA IZUKU MY PRECIOUS SON who happens to be the main character he is so pure and soft i will protect him;; DESPITE NOT HAVING A QUIRK midoriya wants to get into the prestigious hero academia YUUEI to become a hero, just like his idol ALL MIGHT, and the story follows him in his efforts to BECOME A HERO; its really really good with fabulous characters, and id also recommend the manga on this one because its shaping up to destroy my life pls all i wanted was a fun cute hero story i didnt ask for this heartbreak--
KIZNAIVER-DAM TRIGGER BACK AT IT AGAIN WITH THE BEAUTIFUL ANIMATION--
no for real this show is gorgeous okay the character designs are all so interesting and complex and its amazing to see them all moving so SMOOTH AND FLUIDLY god i would recommend this even if only for the art because its THAT GOOD OKAY;; kiznaiver is a sci-fi-ish show about a group of seven people who, through a series of circumstances, become part of an experiment where theyre all connected to share each others pain through their BONDS; its pretty intriguing and i really do want to see where its going to go, and the opening is absolutely slamming and, like i said, the animation is spectacular and definitely worth checking out!
FLYING WITCH-this show seems super!! super!! cute so far!! its set up as a kind of osomatsu-san-esque episode style, where there are two or three story segments per episode, and its a very comfy and soft show!! the premise is a modern day witch who goes to live in the country with her extended family, but the focus isnt exactly on her BEING a witch, which i think is neat! its more focused on how her friends and family deal with the peculiarities of witches, and all the stuff that goes with it; its really really cute, and i love makoto she is adorable!!
SPACE PATROL LULUCO/UCHUU PATROL LULUCO-okay. listen. i love this show so much. it is ridiculous and adorable and fun and maybe my favorite because of the sheer absurdity of it. its only about 7 or 8 minutes per episode, and is generally a constant shxtpost; the "plot" follows luluco, a normal girl who lives a normal life on a planet full of aliens, until she ends up joining the SPACE PATROL to hunt down criminals, complete with a cute space uniform and the ability to TURN INTO A GUN! it is ridiculous in every way possible and somehow still whips around to be cute, and i LOVE it; the opening and ending songs are also bumping, and its a totally fun show to watch if you have 10 minutes to spare!
honest to god this is her transformation and it only gets better from here
**EDIT** HECK I FORGOT TO SCREAM ABOUT
THE CASE STUDY OF VANITAS!!!!!! if youre familiar with "pandora hearts" by jun mochizuki, and if you, like me, were heartbroken and absolutely destroyed by the ending of pandora hearts, FEAR NOT!!!! SHES STARTED THIS NEW MANGA!!! AND IM PREPARED!!! FOR MORE HEARTBREAK!! KILL ME!! GOD its shaping up to be really really good even with only a couple chapters out, and let me just say the art quality is
breathtaking; there are so many small details, huge spreads, it takes me a stupid long amount of time to read one chapter because there sheer amount of small details is mind boggling, from the stitching on a coat, to the details in someones earrings, to beautiful environments; i love love love jun mochizukis style, she has a really pleasing way of drawing that i will never get tired of looking at and its a huge inspiration to me, this is another one i would check out for the art if the story doesnt interest you - WHICH I WOULD BE SURPRISED AT because if you know mochizuki, you can bet itll be full of plot twists and suffering. at the moment the plot is this: NOE, the main character who i love very dearly, is sent to paris and finds the human VANITAS, who is using "the book of vanitas" (written by a vampire and highly sought after, and which noe was specifically sent to find) to save cursed vampires from a path of destruction; the two end up teaming up to solve a mystery, and im ready for the many mysteries sure to come afterwards, please mochizuki destroy me im just ready to suffer let me die
SO YEAH please check out the case study of vanitas, and if youre unfamiliar with pandora hearts, i would 100% recommend that manga as well!! AND IF YOUVE READ IT/ARE READING CSOV PLEASE GOD MESSAGE ME SO WE CAN SCREAM TOGETHER **END EDIT**
