Character Setting

Edit

Nora is a mysterious girl closely linked to Yato and the world of gods and spirits. She is covered in written names and wears white clothes with a crown-like ornament. Once Yato’s divine weapon, she defeated Bishamonten on his behalf. However, now she is considered a “stray” and people avoid even saying her name. Nora is cold and feared, but she deeply values the name Yato gave her and has never attacked him. Loyal to her Father, she follows his orders and holds special knowledge about Yato’s real name. Nora lacks memories from her life, making her a unique spirit with a tragic past. Her actions have shaken the lives of many characters, setting off dark plots and battles in the story.

Nora is a young girl dressed completely in white.

She wears a crown on her head and her entire body is covered in names.

Sometimes, she wears a school uniform from Hiyori Iki’s childhood.

Nora is cold, calculating, and often seen as cruel.

She is deeply loyal to her Father and always follows his commands.

She is gentle only with Yato, treasuring the name he gave her.

Despite being treated badly, she never turns against Yato.

Nora is not her only name—she has been given many names and served many masters.

She was once Yato’s divine weapon and defeated Bishamonten for him.

After becoming a stray, she was shunned by other spirits and gods.

Her Father says she died a sad and lonely death without ever having a name.

She has no memories of her life as a human, making her different from other spirits.

Nora’s divine weapon form is called “Hi-ki” or “Scarlet Blade,” a water sword that protects Yato.

Her Father’s weapon, “Chi-ki” or “Horned Blade,” can bring back memories, but it is very dangerous and affects only certain people.

She can use many powerful spells and has helped defeat even gods.

She is also connected to past incarnations of Ebisu and Takemikazuchi.

  • Yato: She is Yato’s former weapon, cares deeply for him, and knows his true name.
  • Father: She is very obedient and shows a soft side only around him.
  • Yukine: After losing her master, she is taken in and protected by Yukine, and learns together with him.
  • Hiyori Iki: She attacks Hiyori under Father’s orders and wears her school uniform at times.
  • Kazuma: Kazuma casts a spell that breaks her contract after she tries to kill Bishamonten.

Serving Multiple Masters

Nora was once Yato's sacred weapon and was used by him to defeat Bishamonten.

Over time, she became known as a "stray" and was avoided and disliked by other gods and spirits.

People hesitate to call her by name, showing how feared and isolated she is.

Father’s Schemes

Following Father’s orders, Nora works with masked phantoms, attacking Hiyori Iki and helping make Kugaha's dark plans happen.

She pulls Yato into Father’s schemes, hoping he will help with what Father wants.

Battles and Betrayals

When Nora tries to kill Bishamonten, Kazuma uses a powerful spell to cancel her contract.

After that, she hides with Yukine, and they begin learning together.

Sometimes, she wears Hiyori Iki’s childhood uniform.

Confronting the Truth

Later, Yato learns Father’s true intentions and fights back, making Nora's loyalty waver for the first time.

In the anime, her weapon is called “Reiki” ("Zero Blade"), and she uses Hiyori’s memories to fight Yato.

  • Nora is the only one who knows Yato’s original name.
  • She is a special spirit because she has no memories from when she was alive.
  • Nora’s past ties her to Ebisu and Takemikazuchi, two important figures in the story.
