Plot
At the boundary between this realm and another, there are eight million gods, dead spirits who serve the gods, and other assorted spirits who help and meddle in the affairs of humans. When a young middle school student named Mutsumi finds herself bullied by classmates, she runs to the bathroom crying and finds a message along with a phone number that says, "I solve your troubles." When she calls the number, a boy named Yato appears and solves her conflict. After her conflict, Tomone, Yato's regalia, quits and Yato finds himself without a servant.
Reduced to working odd jobs in order to raise money to build a shrine, Yato answers a call to find Milord, a boy's cat. Iki Hiyori, while walking with her friends, spots Yato running in front of a bus to catch the lost cat. Pushing him aside, she gets hit by the bus and becomes disconnected from her body. After this ordeal, she is able to see dead spirits and starts to disconnect from her body, gaining a tail that serves as the representation of the connection between her soul and her body. She then asks Yato to help her return to her original state.
Yato calls himself a god but he does not answer people's prayers and no one acknowledges him. He one day hopes to have a shrine and followers, but right now he only has his regalia, Yukine, his friend, Hiyori and the ability to cut all who pass between this world and the next.
