How the fuck did I sleep on this??
Charming anime, good comedy, heartfelt moments, and a banger OP youtube.com
I must've been blind when this was out. Shame about the wierd jump from S2-S3, gotta read the manga to fill it in
The World God Only Knows
Other urls found in this thread:
Goddess arc starts at the 140~ish chapter in the manga and S2 ended in the chapter 55, if I remenber correctly.
The manga is great until the end of the Goddess arc but the later arc was so bad it axed the manga. Now the mangaka lives of short lived series.
Huh, had no idea, well plan was to read from the ends of S2 up till Goddess arc, watch it and then finish with the final arc. but now I'm not so sure
Had no idea the final arc was so bad it killed it all- to think this got 3 seasons after everything!
I've had this on my backlog for ages just because of the sexy Akio designs.
Read the manga. Doesn't matter if you watched the anime or not, just read everything.
Alright will do cap'n.
Any other recs for what to read/watch after all this? Looking for anything
Season 1 was such a perfect anime. After that the manga and anime ruins everything.
Thing is, the Goddess arc was just really fucking good, and a lot of new people arrived from the anime after S2 right into its climax. In that sense timing played a big part, because the bar was set really high and the expectations for the next arc were huge.
The last arc wasn't really bad compared to some actually bad arcs from other series. It was pretty forgettable and really drawn out, but I think what really hurt the series in that regard was it simply ending the way it did there. Rushing an ending out of nowhere in three chapters, leaving very little payoff and a really bad aftertaste after having been in a mediocre arc for a long time in an anotherwise great series.
shoot, well at least I can look forward to the manga and anime goddess arc when I get there.
Any rec's on what to read or watch from here out? I feel like I've seen most stuff but heck I missed this so I'm open to suggestions
Anime skipped a lot of good girls for the sake of plot relevant ones.
This is probably one time i think something like that is a bad thing.
It's pretty much one of the few harem anime out there that I would consider good.
Everything post goddess arc needs to be thrown into the dumpster fire, and I say this as someone who knew and agreed that Chihiro x Keima was the proper end when the goddess arc ended.
DOKURO SHOULD'VE WON
DEATH TO ALL OTHER HEROINES
Wakaki was a one hit wonder hack.
One of the best protagonists of all time
This anime was really an important part of my life, truly kino for me. I fell for Chihiro from the start and nobody believed me when I said she was gonna win. Everyone thought it would be Kanon or Ayumi. Keima is a gentleman, he wanted to atone for making her cry and he also knows to appreciate honest love instead of forced love from the other girls, because were it not for the demon hunting, they would've never even looked at him in the first place and he did it just out of duty anyway so it wouldn't feel right. The author is truly /my/ guy, very like minded. I wish he had made a longer series with more girls though or at least an alternative reality version like this, I liked the premise of saving the hearts of maidens like it were a bishoujo game. This anime got me into visual novels, my only complaint about it is the awful choice of words by the fansubbers, there was no need to replace "galge" with "dating sims" when it's already an english word in itself.
^Also this was last anime series where Shaft actually put some effort into drawing backgrounds.
>Shaft?
Literally wut? Manglobe did this series
IIRC Redhawkscans used "galge" in their translations, but not entirely sure. I kind of wish Wakaki made a kaminomi reboot, although I don't know how it would work. I was thinking Keima should have a male "disciple" who he teaches the ways of galge and conquest to.
My nigga, you are almost describing my same experience
The ending caused so much butthurt that it still nurishes me today
Also the OP you linked is still 10/10 today
>That Switch to GOD ONLY KNOWS
Actual Soul
Anyone with a brain knew she was the most likely to win because she like Keima without him trying to swoon her. Having no goddess cemented her win. Tenri deserved better though. And especially Haqua.
To be honest, Elsie should have won
>a male "disciple" who he teaches the ways of galge and conquest to
He had many fans on the net but I guess an irl friend would've helped a lot more with this, that's a nice idea tbqh.
Shittiest ending of all times. Still want to know if new episodes are coming out or not.
That's right, confused with something else.
Because you're a newfag. All of Yea Forums is now.
not really. I wasn't dedicated to anime back then, casually would watch it every now and then but since I got into adult life and more free time opened up, I've been pouring back over the years to see what I've missed/good recs
The threads here during the Goddess arc were a lot of fun.
Series is really great even the school uniform is really unique
also Haqua is best girl
>I wasn't dedicated to anime back then, casually would watch it every now and then
That means you're a newfag.
I like the 20min long song thing
An edgy looking twink mc playing video games reminds me of sao so theres zero interest to watch the show itself.
It's 12 and thanks to that song, I got to knew Lia and fell in love with her voice.
The world god only knows is the peak of harem garbage before anime transition to LN garbage.
Fuck you nostalgiafucklords
I'M STILL MAD
This. They introduced her late game and she won my heart immediately. Then you come to find out she was his teacher, and would still call him onii-chan. I really thought it was gonna end with her when they met again in the final chapter. I would've even accepted haku, but anyone other than chihiro
NANDATO?!
Faggots not welcome.
Try Rokudou no onna tachi, it starts as a comedy with a slight harem and gradually transitions into a full shounen series. Just don't quit because of the MC, he's going to drive you crazy, but he gets so much better.
Are you new to anime?
>Rokudou no onna tachi
Alright thanks mate, I'll trust you
I remember this and its manga.
I remember that at the end there was a plot twist with some time travel bullshit and that's why called "the world god only knows.
Can somebody remember me please the ending/plot twist of the manga?
Yes there was a time paradox ending, I didn't like it but I thought it was just because I didn't pay enough attention when I was reading the manga. I liked everything else of this series, the music discs as well.
Mio best girl
why they decided to skip 100+ chapters is beyond me. for it to get 3 seasons it clearly made a lot of money
I'm wondering about it too. Really dumb
Now Wakaki is doing the art for some Idolshit game.
I rewatched the anime and it actually made sense why Chihiro won and why Keima found her refreshing. I didn't like it but at least I could accept it.
I too like fire trucks
Did all his manga flop?
it is like JC Staff who decided to rush the best arcs in Index to get into NT. why the fuck would you want to rush shit? to run out of materialf faster? you clearly get a lot of money from the anime. what the fuck
Got no more than 3 volume in every series after TWGOK.
They 3 I know after TWGOK had more than 50 chapters at least but none has been translated more than a few chapters.
Tried one of his later manga and what I got was a cross dressing boy idol. It's fine if you're into that but not if you're looking for some Kaminomi flavor.
Wakaki should go for TWGOK2, have Keima break up with Chihiro and then turn into the King of games again. Maybe in college this time.
Wakaki peaked at TWGOK and will probably will never surpass it.
his post TWGOK series felt forced. he was trying way too fucking hard
>not having Chihiro get into Otoge/BL games and surpass Keima as the Queen of Games
Firetruck girl should've won
this is what hurts the most
best girl doesn't win
It wasn't that bad desu. It had teen Keima switch minds with his kid self through time, which was a pretty nice arc. The only bad part was the Hell subplot which went nowhere, and then Elsie was suddenly revealed as the weapon that destroyed Hell in the past, which was a completely pointless reveal with zero impact on the plot, the characters and the viewers.
Then Elsie turns into a human and lives with Keima as his biological imouto, and the girl who wins Keimabowl is... I'll let you discover that on your own if you still don't know.
But LC did win.
It was a fun series, Haqua deserved much better though so I'll never forgive the ending.
the moment chihiro started getting drawn with more detail and she lost the joke character eyes I called the ending
>banger
Hi Gigguk
LCfer mega arc could have been fun, but the time travel arc was so bad he lost all support needed to continue.
Yui still stuck with me after all these years.
You fools ruined everything it was her turn
Stand up, fellow ChihiroBros!
Elsie should have went Yotsuga no Sora route.
LC's my waifu since I saw the first season but fuck this series. S3 shafted important characters down to only 5 minutes of exposition and the manga took too long to end with such disappointment.
heres your (((you))), fuck you.
WE RISE
>tfw there hasnt been an event as great as Chihiros victory since
Why are there so few harems these days
There are a lot of harems, but most of them just seem to fizzle out or end with a designated winner
Might be harems out there but they just dont feel like they used to. Theres been barely any good waifu wars in the past few years. Only current one i can think of is Go toubun
True
I sometimes read Bokuben for the teacher but even there there don't seem to be any actual waifu wars, just some tired shitflinging
She did. She literally altered reality to become his blood related sister.
Ah, the good ole days
>tfw STILL MAD
This genuinely had me /seething/. I still can't even put my anger into words. Tenri deserved to win more than anyone. The childhood friend trope infuriates me.
Needs a Dokuro tier.
My man
Because Japanese creators have gotten death threats for making worse girl win one too many times.
Never forget
She's so cute.
God fucking damn I loved this manga and I was so sad when it got axed. Also the salt that Yea Forums produced when Chihiro won was glorious. She truly was best girl.
Terri had a hard life
When I finished the manga, I threw my phone. I never threw my phone. Until Chihiro won and that is when I realized
That reality is just a shitty game
Because the title is unwieldy and nonindicative.
This is still my favorite manga to this date.
Man, I really miss the old threads.
Why can't we get more protags like Keima? Sure he acted like some know-it-all special snowflake but all he really did was have the balls to approach and confront his conquests without spilling spaghetti.
good think after the hack ending the manga other works flopped hard
Pretty hard when random bitch takes over your body and whores it out to man you love.
i miss Her so much
not a fan of the green hair though and would've pref Purple hair that others guessed
Tomboys best boys!
Don't worry, 5toubun is bound to bring the great butthurt cataclysm to Yea Forums as predicted in the dead sea scrolls.
And we have Bokuben as a backup.
I got bored off the manga in 30 chapters, does it stay at that level or get any better?
It's pretty shit imo, no real plot nor is it funny.
That's not important. What matters is the message. People fighting with their inner demons. Trully a 10/10 masterpiece.
>manga
>plot
Go read real literature.
AHooooooooo~
>tfw desire to read this again
>tfw i know how it ends
Who's the fluffy one?
It's a really really great series; the only thing I'd knock it for slightly is the arc, but yeah if I had any otaku friends sadly I don't have friends I'd definitely recommend it
Reminder that the assistant was the one to force the author to choose the most boring and annoying girl to win.
how did the assistant get that much power/sway??
>Shame about the wierd jump from S2-S3
Did you miss the 3 OVA episodes?
Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai: 4-nin to Idol
Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai: Tenri-hen
>when oniichan is paying attention to you
had the series not ended so soon, there would have been some sweet Nikaido doujins on sadpanda
Just stop right before it turns to shit
FUCK WAKAKI FOR MAKING CHIHIRO WIN FUCK THAT HACK OF AN AUTHOR. I'M STILL FUCKING SALTY. TENRI SHOULD'VE WON, HECK EVEN KANON OR SHIORI IS A BETTER CHOICE THAN THAT SHITTY TOMBOY.
Nonetheless, Kaminomi still remains as my favourite manga and possibly anime series, except for the shitty rushed S3. Also, what was the point of that time travelling bullshit?
Also, can we appreciate the all star cast the anime have? Hanakana, Itou Kanae, Shimono Hiro, Taketatsu Ayana, Yuki Aoi just to name a few. Heck, it's probably the anime that launched Toyama Nao's career, nothing can top 2012 Ribbon Revolution Live Concert.
Which kaminomi is the lewdest?
I would say Elsie.
She's got the best doujin so yeah it's gotta be her.
The ending ruined the author's career so in short you have shit taste
You know what to do user-kun
I believe this was TouNao's first big role and yes, was the jumping start for her career. I still have all her live concerts with the TWGOK crew and the crossover with Hayate no Gokuto.
Which one?
Source?
It was Toyama's debut role. Although she had Star Driver the same season.
#metoo
nhentai.net
I still have it as well. I still watch her perform 想いはRain Rain from time to time, seifuku Naobou is just too cute.
A Chihiro win easily made the most sense from a story perspective. I'm glad Wakaki had the balls to go through with it when she wasn't the fan favourite. He cared more about his story than pleasing the most fans.
I feel you man
I've never noticed her eyebrows in this image. Ignoring them you get a face of confidence, now that I see them I see her worry.
The cast was fantastic. Hiro Shimono and Kanae Itou became Keima and Elsie really naturally, blew out everyone thinking it wasn't a good cast when it started airing.
I remember listening to their Kaminomi Radio show weekly. The last episode during S2 with them pushing for another season was something else. Lots of good memories from this series.
nah I watched those, but it skips a chunk of chapters from where S2 ends and S3 starts, just look at the manga.- the OVA's help, especially Tenhri's but it's still a jump
you're fucking with me
Overrated Bullshit
Both of You are Pathetic
You're new to Yea Forums. TWGOK is one of Yea Forums's all time favorites.
heck, I've been in and out over the years, haven't seen any posts about it. Guess I might be missing some of Yea Forums's favs
2008-2014. You missed those years and I suspect earlier years too. Thus, you're new.
You bought into the Chihiro hate.
Did that user die from eating his own shit?
I wish karate girl would snap my neck with her thighs. Sucks there's exactly one doujin for her.
Yui and Dokiro where the best girls and Chihiro should just disappear.
Imagine actually liking a 2d girl that has literally crushed on someone that was not the MC.
Chihirofags are cuckolds.
Keima is best girl.
El C's chad older sister coming to stay with Keima and introducing herself as his father's illegitimate first born when?
Iirc, the skipped chapters were just conquer arcs and the date with Elsea. Would've liked to see Yamato Nadeshiko, Moon, and Shogi arcs animated though.
YOU are not Keima. YOU are not the MC. Wanting your favorite to get with the MC is true cuckoldry.
Chihiro wasn't my favorite, but I am not Keima. Chihiro was perfect for Keima, and any idiot with any sense of characterization could see it.
