in Japan, there are humans, but what they didn't really know, there are also gods, Shinki/Regalias and Ayakashi/Phantoms

On the Near Shore, the world of the living, live humans, while on the Far Shore, live the gods, Shinkis, and Ayakashi, humans can't see those from the Far Shore, except for animals, small children and people who are especially perceptive to beings of the Far Shore

gods are alive with the help of people's prayers and wishes, there are gods like Bishamon, goddes of combat, Ebisu Kofuku, goddess of poverty, Tenjin, the god of learning, and the less known Yato, god of calamity

Shinki/Regalias are dead people who gods made into their weapons, they can take the form of a weapon at their god's command, Kazuma, Bishamon's blessed Shinki, Daikoku, Kofuku's only Shinki, Nora, a stray Shinki who has many names and is owned by many gods, Ayu, Miyu, Moyu and Nayu who are Tenjin's Shinkis, and Mayu, who was Yato's Shinki and became Tenjin's, her former name given by Yato is Tomone, and Yukine, Yato's only current Shinki

Ayakashi are creatures from the Far Shore who influence humans, they corrupt the good in their heart, they feed off their darkness and they're fond of the smell of regalias and gods, they come in all shapes and sizes, mostly animal like creatures, they can only be killed with a Shinki wielded by a god

Iki Hiyori is a middle schooler, she's a Half-human half-ayakashi whose spirit can temporarily leave her human body. As a half-ayakashi, a cord resembling a cat's tail emerges from her lower back. The cord is colored pink, when her spirit leaves her human body, it's asleep. Hiyori has also made a deal with Yato, he promised to help her become normal again in exchange for 5 yen

Unlike all the other gods, Yato doesn't have a shrine, so he does any job for 5 yen, you can often see something like "delivery god Yato - cheap and fast!" And a phone number written with spray paint on the streets

and you?
