MathAtMidnight chapter 3 . 7/21
Development!

I don't think there's much else to focus on here, as it's pretty clear that you want to focus more on the worldbuilding. In this case, I appreciate that you have decided to focus on the main household, and the relationship between our main heroine and the more staid members of the household. In that respect, I appreciate the fact that you have Joker being somewhat hands-off here; you want to focus on the interpersonal (or perhaps, inter-spirit) relationships between Makoto and her housemates.

As always, I look forward to your development of the story as it goes on.

I can see elements of the worldbuilding continue in this. I do appreciate that you have the characters linked to their counterparts in the Persona universe, and using those connections helps new immigrants to this universe ground themselves more effectively. There isn't much to say otherwise, but this is still early, and I appreciate the way you slowly acclimate readers to your new world, before you decide to ramp up the story and details. I look forward to seeing how this will resolve.

I love this premise. It's been years since I saw the show but I think it works out well for ShuMako

This is a fascinating read. I'll be honest; I shied away from this at first because it tied into an area that I have no idea about, but I was tempted to read it anyway.

I had to draw upon some of my previous knowledge of other anime series I had watched in the same general genre (Tokyo Ravens comes to mind), but the descriptions were adequate. Perhaps I need to do a little bit of research myself for world-building purposes, but for the most part, the story went and you had the characters turn out well and the descriptors sufficient for someone who doesn't know Noragami.

Other than that, Makoto seems to be doing fairly well for someone who just shuffled off this mortal coil and was practically assimilated into a new reality. I look forward to seeing how this will proceed. Cheers!
