Synopsis

.

.

Keima Katsuragi, known online as the legendary "God of Conquest," can conquer any girl's heart—in dating sim games, at least. In reality, he opts for the two-dimensional world of gaming over real life because he is an unhealthily obsessed otaku of galge games (a type of Japanese video game centered on interactions with attractive girls).

When he arrogantly accepts an anonymous offer to prove his supremacy at dating sim games, Keima is misled into aiding a naïve and impish demon from hell named Elucia "Elsie" de Lute Ima with her mission: retrieving runaway evil spirits who have escaped from hell and scattered themselves throughout the human world. Keima discovers that the only way to capture these spirits is to conquer what he hates the most: the unpredictable hearts of three-dimensional girls! Shackled to Elsie via a deadly collar, Keima now has his title of "God of Conquest" put to the ultimate test as he is forced to navigate through the hearts of a multitude of real-life girls.

My review!!!

The Anime can be watched on Crunchyroll...

Crunchyroll: The World Only God Knows

Here is what they have to say about the show...

About the Show

Keima, a high school student, is an avid player of romantic simulation games. He is known on the Internet as the "Divine Capturer" for his legendary skills to "capture" any 2D girl in games. In his real school life, Keima is considered nothing but a gloomy geek with thick glasses

So as you can see from reading the descriptions here this is not quite what you would expect after reading the title... Here we have Keima...

Yup that is our stud-muffin! LOL... Anyhow... Here we have this kid Keima who is only interested in game girls... And by game girls I mean girls in the dating sim games... Not living... That kind of thing. It's a shame too... That is... Until he gets a message from someone and accepts the challenge within that message... Only to find out it was not what it seemed!

Keima had titled himself "The God of Conquest" or "Divine Capturer" in his game world... And that caught the attention of a demon on a hunt for loose souls in his area. A contract unknowingly signed still needs to be filled!

The best part I can see is that he has to do exactly what he does in his games... Win over the heart of every girl that is possessed by a loose soul... sounds easy right?

Here we see Keima with some of the girls he has to win the hearts of... Except the girl with the pink scarf like thing.. That's his demon buddy(?) who will die with him if he fails his contract... Talk about being stuck between a rock an a hard place!

You see... Keima... Well he isn't very good with girls lol... Go figure right!

Now if you are like me and have watched a lot of movies in your day... You might have thought Keima's uniform resembled something you had seen before but couldn't place... Let me enlighten you to what it probably was...

Look familiar now???

That's probably where they got their inspiration from... If you think about it... Austin wins the heart of women all the time... All be it in a very odd way... And here we have Keima... doing the same thing basically... His "mojo" is his games... kinda cool if you think about it!

Anyway I really did enjoy this one... So much so that I plan on watching the other seasons after I finish this one... Now it's time... Let's rate this bad boy!

On a scale of 1 to 10 with ten being a "perfect-must-Watch" rating I give this...

That's right... 9... It was cute and funny and made you wonder how the author/artist came up with each "type" of girl and the scenario that would ultimately win their hearts over!

I hope this little sneak peek made you want to check it out for yourself!

As always... Thanx for reading my blog!

Have a wonderfully romantic day!
