Haha! Though to be fair, Yukine started getting corrupted near the beginning of episode 5, as Nora triggered his insecurities.

Made who sinister, Yato, is it? I guess yeahh. I need to read more since I'm not up to date but Yato isn't the snow white angel (his thing with bisha doesn't count tho) I thought he was. :p
Dudeee! It gets darker. Goofball with a dark past, like Gintama, yes? :')
Oh gosh. Should I prepare for what is to come? //hasn't read manga yet//
I'm planning on reading it after the anime ends! I wonder how they're different especially since that Rabo guy is anime-only right?
You definitely should read the manga after the anime ends, or you can start today, since Rabo's story is indeed anime-only. The manga's author designed Rabo, who is said to be a god of calamity, but I feel the original Noragami story is heaps better.
The anime has been quite faithful to the manga, where the first episode was sped up (i.e. episode 1 cut out where in the manga, Yato met the bullied school girl who gave him the 5 Yen. His slaying of the Phantom didn't fix the girl's problem and he didn't really care, and Tomone quit because Yato can be cruel, not just because he's homeless, as the anime portrayed). The episode with the man falling off the building is actually an extras/specials chapter; it was likely animated to develop Kofuku's character as a goddess of poverty. They also sped up Nora's appearance.
Chapter 12 = Episode 10 then.
Such a sad day when it only had 12 episodes to work with. Noragami
anime's supervisor reveals why the anime didn't include the Bishanmon arc, chapters 13-24:
"He says Noragami is a work he really likes, and for Bishanmon's arc it would be at least more than 10 episodes, and if they skimmed over the details in Yukine's arc the later stories will be hard to understand, so they decided to not do the Bishanmon arc for now and use the anime original ending, which was improvised by the mangakas as well."
