Death March - Volume 22
A great volume, it’s a shame it only got up to 3, I was hoping for a full platoon of *ions. NineSwords says so too.
(What would the correct world be for a group of gods/goddesses?)
Secrets of the silent witch - Volume 4.5
An extra volume covering 4 short stories.
Secrets of the silent witch - Volume 5
We finally learn the cats (Neros) history and story. Things are heating up, people are getting closer to Monica’s secrets.
NineSwords says so too.
I do not, but I agree. (That bit never gets old). They had such a great chemistry with Satou and I would have loved to see a. more of them and b. have them interact more with the other characters. But the door is open now for frequent visits.

Probably a "Morsel" of Goddesses. The term comes from the sound the group makes most prominently.

I have cemented my position as the office weirdo, giggling to myself. The people around me were looking at me like I was Harmut spouting about Myne.

Is this true for English? The only one I can think of that fits is a gaggle of geese.
Herd of sheep, cows, pigs, horse, etc
Pod of dolphins, whales, etc
Murder of crows

Nah, that's just what I'm going with. Sounds plausible enough, doesn't it? ;)
As far as I remember collective nouns are based on an old book (15th or 16th century) and there are some funny ones in there. I'll look it up and report later.
Edit: "The Book of Hawking, Hunting and Blasing of Arms" by Julia Berners published in England in 1486. It includes 165 collective nouns for groups of people and animals. I suppose the good gal was bored out of her mind and everyone just ran with it to humor her. And today we have have masterpieces like a "conspiracy of lemurs", "tower of giraffes", and "destruction of wild cats" (all real I swear).
group of gods
I think it would be "pantheon of gods"
