I don't really view Noragami for the 'fights' either. I mean, the choreography is more of a means to an end and not the focus like in general shounen. The first season leaned towards core characterization of Hiyori and Yukine and also Kazuma, which was necessary in order to fully explore the personas of Yato and Bishamon when season 2 rolled around. It's a very character-driven story and even the conflict acts as a way of displaying that. The excitement of fights and well-placed comedy only add to the existing charm. A proper balanced series imo.
