Noragami Manga Announces Release Date for Final Chapter

Noragami‘s Yato, Hiyori, and Yukine will bid fans farewell in January 2024.

As reported by @/sneakyoshi, Noragami will end with 109 chapters. The last chapter will release as part of the February 2024 issue of Monthly Shonen Magazine on Jan. 6, 2024. The manga will go on a one-month hiatus, in preparation for the final chapter which will consist of 45 pages, including colour pages. Previously, it was reported that Noragami would conclude by the end of 2023 with Volume 27.

Adachitoka, the collective pen name for Adachi and Tokashiki, started writing Noragami (literally “stray god”) in 2010 where it began serialization in Monthly Shōnen Magazine in December of that same year. The series follows Hiyori Iki, a middle school girl, whose soul constantly slips out of her body following a bus accident. She discovers there are two parallel worlds, one where humans occupy and another where phantoms and human souls roam. Yato, a nameless god determined to make a name for himself and have his own shrine, offers to help Hiyori with solving her soul-escaping problem. He and Hiyori are later joined by Yukine, the soul of a young deceased boy, who becomes Yato’s Regalia. The trio go on a number of adventures and Yato’s past slowly gets unravelled.

An anime adaptation of Noragami, produced by Bones with Kotaro Tamura as director, aired in January 2014 with 12 episodes and two OVAs. A second season, titled Noragami Aragoto, aired in October 2015 and concluded in December. Noragami has also inspired two stage plays which premiered in January 2016 and February 2017.

The first two seasons of Noragami are available on Crunchyroll.
