Hello,
I'd like to begin reading this series
tough, can someone please tell me if, exept the fact that the protagonist is a...god?, the cases (if they are ones) in this manga are real myteries or are they supernatural?

Thanks :P

Spoiler: Plot Summary from Wikipedia
Loki, the Norse god of mischief, has been exiled to the human world by the god Odin for reasons that he doesn't understand. Along with being exiled, Loki is forced to take the form of a human child, and the only way he can return to the realm of the gods is by collecting the evil auras which take over human hearts. In order to do this, he starts a detective agency which specializes in the paranormal. Loki is assisted by his loyal companion Yamino and the pair are soon joined by a human girl named Mayura who is manic for mysteries and often unwittingly assists him in catching the auras. As time passes, however, other Norse gods and characters appear, some of whom befriend Loki and others of whom are intent on assassinating him.

His detective agency specializes in the paranormal... so it seems to be more supernatural.

It's very supernatural and, if you ask me, not much of a mystery series.  If you're looking for something similar to Conan then Loki is not it.

Dropped this series after 2-3 episodes.

IMO, Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro is a better choice. At least there were whodunit and howdunit elements to some extent.

If you haven't watched/read it yet, you better consider that series.

It gets really boring to watch and read at some times in my opinion, but I managed to live with it.
Plus, Mayura can get pretty annoying.

I found a manga called QED on one of the scanlation sites. It has a bit of deductive reasoning in it to solve cases, if I recall. You might search around for it. I don't think it has an anime adaptation, though.

It dEals with supernatural and only has fEw mysteries in it. Majin Tantei Neuro Nougami is a better choice... =D

Nope.

On-topic:

If I were to choose between Mayura and Freya, I'll choose Mayura. Even though she can be pretty annoying, she has some positive traits as well. And I also like a certain arc related to her in the manga.
