What We Think

Noragami is refreshingly non-woke, prioritizing story and traditional themes over modern identity politics or ideological messaging. A breath of fresh air compared to more recent fare.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The show keeps its focus on plot and character development rather than shoehorning in identity politics. Characters are diverse in personality, not in modern check-the-box ways, and identities are tied to their mythological roles, not current ideological trends.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Noragami draws heavily from traditional Japanese mythology, treats religion with nuance, and doesn't undermine family or masculinity. No obvious attempts at subverting gender roles or rewriting culture for modern ideology.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There is no notable ideological monoculture. Characters represent a variety of viewpoints and conflicts are rooted in personal beliefs or mythos, not in contemporary ideology or social messaging.
