The World God Only Knows/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Nora: "I wondered what kind of guy managed to extract 9 runaway spirits, but... Doesn't look like he's anything special. You... use [love] to fill the gap of the heart? How dull... Isn't love the darkest emotion. You can't close the gap of a heart with something like that."
Keima: "The love you know... Is only at that level?"

  • "Even when turned into a woman, I'm still the Capturing God!"
  • Are we forgetting the shogi match between Keima and Diana?
  • Are we allowed to talk about the anime here? If we are, then everything he did in the last episode of the first season, but especially these lines: Beyond, lies the realm of the divine... The world God only knows.. The companion chapter of the manga works as well.
  • In chapter 130, Keima's Genre Savvy-ness makes him concoct a Batman Gambit to capture Vintage's agent, Fiore. He shows Fiore and Nora the goddess sensor Elsie found, and says he'd give it to Nora... if he's allowed to grope her boobs. Cue to the chasing scene... which gets interrupted when Fiore gets caught trying to pick up the sensor. Apparently, the sensor's holding bag is booby-trapped so that if anyone but Keima touches it, it will bind the toucher. Keima rightly assumes that if anyone actively tries to recover the sensor, he/she had a big chance of being involved with Vintage, since the sensor is the only way to detect the Goddesses.
  • Keima again, this time chapter 136. He gets captured by Fiore, stuck in the same jar as Haqua and Nora, and seemingly forgets his usual standards of Genre Savvy-ness, which prompts Fiore to give away a lot of Vintage information, only for Vulcan to reveal she's been listening in on the ENTIRE THING. Vulcan gets one here, too, instantly exploding the goddess sensor and Fiore's communicator.

Keima: And that is the gist of things.

  • Chapter 160:Haqua has been captured and tortured by the New Hell Public Security force who are actually Vintage agents. Just when it looks like they will erase her memories and send one of their agents to take her place on Earth, one of them betrays the others and helps Haqua escape and fight off the rest. It turns out that person was actually a doll...controlled by Chief Docrow Skull, who Haqua first thought was working for Vintage but was actually one of the good guys!
  • Chapter 175: Vintage is on the move, and have captured Mars and Vulcan, and then Chihiro, Ayumi and Keima are about to be captured, when Haqua reappears and cuts them free.
  • Chapter 187: After sharing his true feelings with Ayumi, the two bicker Like an Old Married Couple before having the Big Damn Kiss that restores Mercury to her winged state. But oh no! Vintage agents are descending on them while Mercury's still asleep! Have no fear, because Diana swoops in, having grown her own wings, and scoops Mercury up right before Rimyuel shows leading a squad of loyal Runaway Spirit Squad members to fight off Vintage.
