Jan 28, 2011 Archaeon Recommended It's funny how trends, tastes, and even perceptions can change over time. Less than a decade ago being called a geek, nerd or otaku was considered an insult, and while those terms have maintained their derogatory status to a degree (especially in Japan), the steady march of technology has dictated the rise of the "Beta Male", and nowhere is this more apparent than in the entertainment industries. In 2001 the PC and Dreamcast game Comic Party was adapted and released as an anime, and with it came the birth of a totally new genre - the otaku comedy. Since that time there have been numerous manga ... Read more Open Gift Report
Dec 23, 2010 8thSin Recommended "Reality is a shit game!" 'Kami Nomi zo Shiru Sekai' ('The World Only God Knows') is about a self-claimed "Otoshigami (Capture God)" who can "capture" the heart of any 2D girls in dating-sim games. One day, he unknowingly signs a contract with a demon through email, and ends up in a quest to capture real-life (3D) girls in order to collect runaway souls residing within their hearts. The first season of 'KamiNomi" involves the capture of 4 girls, with 3 filler episodes. Read more Open Gift Report

Jan 21, 2011 LuccasDMC Not Recommended Unexplainable. It's completely unexplainable how big an approval this anime got from the overall anime fans. There isn't a single reason I can see to that after watching The World God Only Knows 12 episodes (being painfully tortured by the last 5 episodes). It's cliche after cliche every single episode. It's true that they tried to cover it up, by coming up with the whole "I don't get in touch with real girls because the games girls are so much better but I'll use my gaming skills to stereotype girls and it'll work out" stuff, but while it worked well on the first episode, it got ...

Oct 27, 2010 HowTragic Recommended Preliminary (4/12 eps) Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai, The World God Only Knows, is an anime that centers on an otaku gamer's life. When I first found this series, I researched on it a bit on Wikipedia, found it somewhat unimpressive in plot, character and art, and didn't even bother reading the manga. I have to say that I was wrong to judge this series by merely the front cover of its Wikipedia article. After the anime came out and my anime savvy friend directly recommended this to me, I found that I was drawn into the story, something that rarely happens for an ardent critic like me. ...

Oct 7, 2010 tealeafkitty Recommended Preliminary (1/12 eps) TWOGK's a really good cheeseburger anime. I mean that in the sense that you know it's not necessarily "deep" or particularly "meaningful", but it makes you happy and satisfied when you watch it. Hell, it's junk food, but it's damn good junk food. TWGOK basically runs like a dating sim game, with a new girl basically every chapter/episode. Even though it's kind of silly, and it's somewhat harem (not in the annoying way, because the girls forget him after he captures them, so there isn't this whole cat-fight thing), but it's fun and interesting, and very pleasing to watch. It doesn't really ... Read more Open Gift Report
Dec 26, 2014 TheAzureSky Not Recommended Expected a twist on harem anime, but was disappointed by how boring and silly it became. Not even funny enough to tolerate. ★☆☆☆ Why do I keep being surprised when MyAnimeList gives me another shit recommendation? I saw the 8’s and 9’s (even some 10’s); I saw the 5-stars; and I read the reviews telling me it was funny—that it’s not your typical harem show. I love a good story that parodies, deconstructs, or puts a twist on clichés. And this show sort of, kinda does that? But not really because so much of it falls flat. The premise is actually much better suited for a more serious ... Read more Open Gift Report

Dec 22, 2010 Longxinus Mixed Feelings This anime adaptation is a fucking disgrace to the manga. I have followed the manga since its very start and have enjoyed it very much. I'll stretch out as far as saying it is a masterpiece, ranking as one of my favorite mangas of all time. Then there is the anime. As you have already noticed, I'm already annoyed how the anime turned out. I'm gonna rip and analyze one point of the time, and we're gonna start straight on... Keima: This is the main character. He is, as the title implies, a God. The God of Galge Gaming, or that's at least what he should be. In ... Read more Open Gift Report
Oct 27, 2013 Whats_an_Otaku Recommended This show is a really good one that has alot of rewatch value. Im still watching it but im in the middle, close to the end of the 3rd Season so its enough to give you a review especially since i cant spoil the ending of the last season, however at the end of the first and second seasons they let you know a following season is in the works, so i dont know if a 4th season is coming or not but it would be great if it was! So this anime is based on the main character who is Keima Katsuragi. He is basically ... Read more Open Gift Report
Dec 23, 2010 ryuu_zer0 Recommended Manga adaptations are, by and large, a double-edged sword. On one hand they can be a guaranteed-profit venture for the production company, while on the other it can be incredibly difficult to capture the charm of the original work and can often leave us fans bitterly disappointed. Being an avid fan of the original manga, it is needless to say that I expected a lot from the anime adaptation of The World God Only Knows (or TWGOK). Unfortunately, it joins the long list of manga-turned-anime that have fallen just short. The plot centres around Katsuragi Keima, known on the internet as the “Capturing ...

Oct 24, 2014 kaizersaber Recommended The World God Only Knows, basically, is the world that only Keima knows. Even I, have no idea, what kind of delusion this man is living in, but it sure as hell is pretty funny. The best way to sum up this anime is - a touching, smart and nonsensical comedy, that leaves you feeling happy at the end of it. TL:DR ... Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 23, 2015 DjKagamine Recommended Preliminary (11/12 eps) Review for Kami Nomi Summary of the Extended Review Below: Story : Liked the sort of many ending type season, Art : Well done, No unique style though this is not a problem Sound : Voices are done well (Japanese Dub) Sound Effects great Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 17, 2011 ace52387 Recommended It’s funny how a parody somehow has license to nab the actual appeal of its subject matter. It’s almost unfair, and that’s exactly what Kami Nomi does. Lets be honest, dating sims are sexist, treating girls like puzzles to be cracked, and those who would never touch such a game can appreciate how this series exaggerates its common character archetypes and lampoons them. The final romantic moments though are completely straight faced, and at times, somewhat touching as they should be in a dating sim. A satisfying romance this is not, but it is riotous, with a few sweet moments on ... Read more Open Gift Report
Oct 21, 2013 Eastunder Recommended Quick note, considering that there aren't many differences or changes between either of the first two seasons in any category, and it'd be kind of pointless to do two separate reviews that say the exact same thing, this review with be covering the first two seasons of The World God Only Knows. There will however be a separate review for the third season at some point in the future. Now that that's out of the way, please enjoy the review. You know, i'm pretty sure that i'd be hard pressed to find many anime fans that aren't also gamers, at least to some degree. After all, ... Read more Open Gift Report
Dec 5, 2013 UnknownUser- Recommended I present to you: The character most of us wish to be, but never will be due to the fact we lack the funding, and the determination. Katsuragi Keima can be considered a true otaku, a man who has given up on reality and instead focuses on nothing but dating sims and VNs. But of course, that would make for a rather boring premise, so let's add some demons to it. ==(Minor) Spoilers Ahead== Now, when I first heard about "The World God Only Knows", I thought it was going to be about a guy who's addicted to dating sims and nothing else. And when I ... Read more Open Gift Report

Nov 27, 2014 ploopploop Recommended Keima, also known as the god of conquest is a... not so ordinary boy. While enjoying his simple way of living, some certain events are about to occur. Events of which he would've never dreamt of and never will. Keima's whole life changes when Elsie (she has a to long name to remember) enters his daily life. The mother of Keima has an ehh.. pretty outstanding character while the father is kinda the opposite. Keima on the other hand is both. Not 50/50 but 100% of each. This character of his makes the events in this anime ridiculously hilarous. I truelly enjoyed the events that ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 23, 2015 highpriest2500 Recommended *Note: this is a review for all 3 seasons. There may be minor spoilers but I'll warn you if I'll be mentioning one. I have also finished the manga as well so there might be some manga influences in my review (I will try to only focus on the anime though).* After watching three seasons of The World God Only Knows (TWGOK), I'm left with one thought: I wish I have Keima's pick-up skills when he is conquering a girl. Maybe I should try picking up dating sims. Having watched a few romance anime (and also a fan of the romance genre), it gets tiring to see ... Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 16, 2016 VegetaOver9000 Recommended The World God Only Knows in a word: Euphoric Where to begin with this one?? For starters, the Op is one of the best Op's I have ever seen. The song and the art are sensational. So well done. That being said the animation and sound throughout the whole thing is great. I wouldn't give the story a 10/10, but the concept behind it certainly deserves 10/10. The idea that a boy who lives to woo the women of the 2D world is suddenly forced to win the hearts of the "inferior" 3D women is hysterical. The execution of this concept is, for the ...
