Two realms exist in the ancient land of Yanato: the Lofty Realm, where gods reside, and the Lowly Realm, where humans reside. Princess Sakuna was the daughter of the god of war and goddess of harvest, but she led a lazy life. One day, she is banished to Hinoe Island, the Isle of Demons. Stranded in a barren land, Sakuna sets out to slay demons and farm rice. Her new adventure begins!

Three episodes in and I still don't know what this show is supposed to be.

▼Spoiler

Everything bad happening is the fault of the humans.
The goddess gets blamed for everything and has to take the punishment.
The humans mess everything up, don't help or their help is counter-produtive.

The morale the story wants us to see is: Don't be lazy, work hard and you will find your true-self...something like that.
The morale of the story I am getting so far is: You should kill humans when they try to cross the heavenly bridge.
