The Disappointment After Noragami's Big Surprise
The Disappointment Behind Noragami's Big Surprise: An Announcement No One Wanted?
A Bitter Anniversary for Fans
The tenth anniversary of Noragamione of the most beloved anime franchises, should have been an occasion to celebrate. August 10, known as "Yato Day" by fans, promised a "big announcement" that filled the community with expectations. However, what was expected to be the reveal of a third season turned out to be a big disappointment for many fans. Instead of new episodes, the announcement was limited to a series of commemorative projects, leaving fans with a bittersweet feeling.
What Was Actually Announced?
Instead of the long-awaited continuation, the followers of Noragami received a commemorative illustration of the main characters created by Toshihiro Kawamoto, along with a special drawing by the manga's authors, Adachitoka. In addition, other minor projects were announced, such as the free, limited-time broadcast of episodes from both seasons of the anime, a marathon on Animax, and the reactivation of "Yato Denwa", a phone number where fans can listen to the voice of the god Yato.

While the artwork is of high quality and is certainly a nostalgic treat for fans of the series, the lack of a new season left many unsatisfied. On social networks, the comments were not long in coming, with most expressing frustration at the lack of a truly meaningful announcement.
Other Projects: Enough for the Fans?
The event also included the unveiling of the cover of the "MEMORIAL Blu-ray BOX", which will be released on October 16 and portrays the three main characters in an emotional scene. However, these announcements were not enough to quench the thirst of fans hoping for a continuation of the anime.
Why No Third Season?
The big question on everyone's mind is: why is it that Noragami does not have a third season? Despite the success of its first two installments in 2014 and 2015, the franchise has been left in limbo. Some theories suggest that the completion of the manga could be one of the reasons, with not enough new content for a sequel. Others point to possible production problems or a lack of interest on the part of the studio in prioritizing this project over others.
Production Factors
Anime production is a complex process that can be influenced by multiple factors. From the availability of resources and personnel, to competition with other more profitable projects, anything could have caused the extended pause in the series. The lack of official confirmation only adds to the speculation among fans.
The Future of Noragami: Is There Hope?
Despite the disappointment, the fans of Noragami continue to hope that someday a third season will be announced. The loyalty of the community is undeniable, and although this "big announcement" did not meet expectations, the love for the series remains intact.
