The World God Only Knows: Difference between revisions

Thus begins Keima's daunting task as the human partner of a runaway-spirit catcher, which throws him deep into exactly what he's been dismissing: Real life, and more importantly, real girls.

 

 

An anime by [[Manglobe]] began in October 2010, with a second season in [[Spring 2011 Anime|April 2011]]. Both seasons have been licensed by [[Sentai Filmworks]], with the first season having been released on DVD and Blu-Ray, dubbed.

** Another example - S1 Episode 8, "Coupling With With With With", has doubled the number of perspectives of the same day.

* [[After-School Cleaning Duty]]: Keima meets Elsie for the first time when Ayumi dumps all the after school cleaning duties on him.

* [[Alien Lunch]]: Other demons enjoy Elsie's cooking. Humans... [[Lethal Chef|not so much.]]

** LAWSAN (chapter 32, p.1; chapter 49, p.3) = [[wikipedia:Lawson (store)|Lawson]], a convenience store franchise chain in Japan.

** JOYSRUS (chapter 34, p.15) = [[wikipedia:Toys r us|Toys R Us]]

** "Level Eye" (chapter 35, p.5) - A very likely spin on [[Level 5|Level]][[wikipedia:Level-5|-5]].<ref>While the mentioned company handles gal games in the chapter's context, Level-5 doesn't seem to have a single [[Dating Sim]] in its production history.</ref>

** Gokult for [[wikipedia:Yakult|Yakult]].

** Band practice not going so well? Have a break... have a [[wikipedia:Kit Kat|KitKot.]] (chapter 54, p.11)

** Tenri is holding [[wikipedia:Star Bucks|Star Box Coffee]] in her hands. (chapter 58, p.10)

** [[Tomokazu Seki|The pitcher from Season 2 Episode 3]] is [[Mobile Fighter G Gundam|Domon]] and [[Lucky Star|Meito]]. The pitcher is, of course, [[Hot-Blooded]].

* [[High-Pressure Emotion]]: In both anime and manga.

* [[Hollywood Tone Deaf]]: As evidenced in the final episode of the First season. Keima's singing is atrocious. It's so bad it's hilarious.

"You won't be able to move if it's not a bloomer!! It's supposed to be a bloomer!!"

"...This is the standard conditions for a little sister to be called a little sister. First is Blood, a blood relationship!! It means that you two have the same blood in you!! Like a sister in law!! Like a ''protégé''!! The weakness of these characters is that in the end they're still unrelated!! And then Memory, the memories of both of you!! It is nothing but the mass number of memories that the family has gathered!! This is the irreplaceable bond of siblings!! And most of all a heart that honors her older brother. Woni-chan moe, an extreme love for her brother!!"

"The voices of their hearts... You can always hear them!! It's right there on the screen, in the [[Inner Monologue|monologue]]." }}

** In the beginning Keima didn't want to capture a real girl and tried to come up with excuses for Elsie why he "can't" do it.

** Chapters 105-106 can be considered REVERSE ship tease if you look at it this way. Keima's date with Haqua and Tenri/Diana is completely wrecked and he tries to get it over with as fast as possible. Compare it to the one in the previous chapter where he goes on the date to cheer up Elsie and actually tries to make her feel better (despite ruining any romantic interaction Elsie wanted), which goes MUCH better. He DID say Elsie was the only one he could put up with.

* [[Shoo Out the Clowns]]: Played straight, though justified, with {{spoiler|Elsea}}. She's absent during much of the Re-Conquest arc's events, but that's because she's doing her own part to keep things running smoothly.

* [[Shrinking Violet]]: Shiori and Tenri.

* [[Single-Issue Psychology]]: The "gaps of the heart" Keima's supposed to fill with love are usually pretty singular neuroses, but it's justified in that the gaps are only such a huge issue because of the spirit inside of them, which exaggerates that gap to take over the person.

* [[Woman Scorned]]: Keima's mother is ''really scary'' when she's pissed off. It doesn't help any that Elsie's [[Secret Identity|cover story]] is that she's Keima's illegitimate half-sister.

** After using the "Forced Development Technique" on Nora (see [[Dangerous Forbidden Technique]] above), Haqua's reaction is full of this:

Cue severe beating and lots of [[Baka]]. }}

** Also Nora. Good Lord, Nora.
