"Noragami Aragoto" season 3 is one of the more anticipated anime as of the moment and for fans who are wondering when it will be released, they may have to wait until 2017 to see more of Yato and his friends.

"Noragami Aragoto" season 2 was released in fall of 2015 and it ended with many questions still unanswered. "God of Fortune" Ebisu, who was perceived as a villain, was actually trying to use the Phantoms for the betterment of the world. However, the gods did not like this gesture and decided to kill him, and ultimately succeeded.

Fortunately, he reincarnated and was relieved of his sins in his past life. Yato made it a point to protect the young man and as the season was about to wrap up, it was revealed that the man who randomly kissed Hiyori was Yato's father in disguise.

Also, another huge development in the previous season is Bishamon finally forgiving Yato for slaying her first family. Yato will need all the allies he can get once he settles things with his father and his previous regalia, Nora. It would be interesting to see if Yukino will have another transformation as a Regalia.

With regards to "Noragami Aragoto" season 3 release date, fans may expect the series to come out around winter of 2017, When-Will reported. Currently, the series is yet to be renewed by BONES but with the reception that the previous season got, the studio may seriously consider pushing for a sequel.

The manga of the anime franchise is still ongoing and is currently at chapter 66. The "Noragami Aragoto" season 2 anime adaptation stopped at chapter 38 which leaves plenty of room for another season. Fans can expect at least a year before a third season is released as the first season was unveiled in January 2014 while the second season made its debut on October 2015.

The third season's plot is expected to revolve on Father and it is expected that the dark past of Yato will be fully revealed as speculated by fans at Reddit. Here is another fan theory on the events that would likely transpire in the new season.
