'''''Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku o!''''' (released in the West as '''''KonoSuba: God's Blessing on this Wonderful World!''''') is a 2013 series of light novels that has been adapted into a manga and an anime.
Line 6:
After his accidental death, the main character Kazuma is offered a chance to reincarnate to another world, where a hero is needed to defeat the evil Demon King. Kazuma is allowed to take one special thing with him , and he chooses the person making him the offer - the goddess Aqua.
 
So Kazuma and Aqua find themselves in a world that functions just like a [[RPG Mechanics Verse|roleplaying game]], two among many hopeful low-level adventurers doing quests for money and XP. Soon two new girls join in, making for an adventuring party of four.

Line 16:
** Megumin: The Nuker.
** Darkness: The Tank.
* [[Alternate Realm Boon]]: Parodied with the goddess Aqua, who gives Kazuma the choice of a "cheat item" when he's brought into the world. In a fit of rage, Kazuma chooses Aqua herself, who has spent the whole time mocking him and his inglorious death, as his bonus. Another goddess recognizes it as official, only for Aqua to be [[The Load]] most of the time when not deliberately antagonizing Kazuma.
* [[Area of Effect]]: Megumin's Explosion spell.
* [[Belligerent Sexual Tension]]: Between Kazuma and Aqua.
Line 23 ⟶ 24:
* [[Character Level]]
* [[The Comically Serious]]: Megumin. She is very serious about explosions.
* [[Confessional]]: Aqua plays the role of the priest in both instances where this occurs; in one instance, Kazuma is with Aqua on her side of the booth, listening in on the conversation. In another instance, Kazuma is sick of Aqua's pretense and confesses a bunch of wrongs done against her specifically.{{context|Editor who added it doesn't recall if it was the truth - best to confirm one way or the other.}}
* [[Crater Power]]: Megumin's explosions leave [[Area of Effect|big]] craters. Not bad for a level 1 character.
* [[Crippling Overspecialization]]: Affects everyone except Kazuma.
Line 54 ⟶ 56:
* [[Stone Wall]]: Darkness puts all her skillpoints each level on improving her armor. This leaves nothing for improving her attack - or anything else for that matter.
* [[Support Party Member]]: Aqua's only real offensive ability is Turn Undead.
* [[Truck-kun]]: [[Parodied]]: Kazuma ''thought'' he died because of truck-kun. In reality, it's "tractor-kun", not "truck-kun", and his cause of death was not getting ran over, but rather ''shock'' from the ''thought'' of getting run over.
* [[Turn Undead]]: Aqua's special ability.
* [[Video Game Stealing]]: The Steal skill steals a random item from the target. Kazuma learned the skill and to date has managed to steal {{spoiler|two pairs of panties, a bra, the magic sword an enemy was fighting with, and the head of a boss monster who was admittedly a dullahan.}} Kazuma's extraordinarily high [[Luck Stat]] helps a lot here.
