Initial Anime Review: The World God Only Knows II

*This has been updated. Click here for final impressions: "TWGOK Final Impressions"

Dear Otakus,

Have to say, it wasn't a surprise when  in the last episode of "The World God Only Knows I" that they announced that a second season was to be premiered. Reading the manga, since chapter 1... where you have flying demons, a full-on otaku that turns into a "Capturing God" and conquers girls with loose souls, what can go wrong?




As the same plot follows Season 1, life centers around Katsuragi Keima, an "Otamegane"(Literal meaning of Glasses wearing Otaku), who is able to 'capture' almost any girl in his virtual games. But in real life he hates the "real world", and is extremely unpopular. After colliding with a demon called Elsie de Lut Ima,  otherwise known as "Elsie", he unknowingly signed a contract to capture loose souls from hell. Unfortunately, he can't remove them physically, because they are stuck in the "crevices" in women's hearts. And the only way to remove the loose souls is through making LOVE to them. Keima then uses his "Capturing Skills" in games, and turns HIMSELF into a lady's man.

In season 1, Keima conquered 4 girls, Ayumi, Mio, Kanon and Shiori. In Season 2, it will be Kusonoki, Chihiro and Nagase.

Currently, it has premiered up to Episode 3, where Haqua is introduced for the first time.

You can get the fansubs from Chihiro (Same Name), ColourMeSubbed, Commie or Sarasu-Subs. It has 12 episodes, and premieres from April 12 to June 28

TWGOK is an anime which incorporates cuteness, humour, romance, harem (which i think is soon), and adventure. A must watch ^_^

If you haven't seen Season 1, you ought to see it! (Explains a lot) Or you can see the first 2 minutes of episode 1...

Or you can be like me; a little insane, watching the anime AND reading the 140 chapter manga.

PS: Haqua looks very different in the anime than the manga. Maybe it's the purple, or my eyes...
