The World God Only Knows (manga thread)

[Reckoner]

So I was tired waiting for the anime episodes to come out. Goddamn, wehre did my day ago. Last i remember, it was 12 o'clock last night .

It's just a very entertaining story. If I had a choice, I say Keima goes for the teacher .

[Myssa Rei]

Reckoner: Jun is surprisingly popular (heck, all girls except possibly the grandma have big followings), but given that she's been crossed out of Keima's 'Goddess Candidate' list it's likely we'll never see her again.

I'm still waiting for the other shoe to drop with regards to the truth behind Ayumi and Chihiro's affection. I honestly would like one of them to NOT have a goddess, and instead be examples of girls who just happened to fall in love with Keima on their own.

I didn't see it in the manga, I think. But has Keima considered the possibility that one or more of the goddess sisters are still among females with Wiess that haven't been dealt with yet?

He has explained in 121 that the choices of goddesses are not random and someone has chosen him to be an agent to awaken the power of the goddesses.

No, it hasn't. Some of the folk here have already pointed out that Keima's 'theory' relies much on Narrative Causality than real-world logic (something that Hacqua has pointed out repeatedly).

Akuragawa Shino, miko girl is always a win.
miko dojikko girl is even more win XD

and the size is 94. Nora is 92.

[tsunade666]

A miko girl and a dojiko to boot but only on novel.... pity. I want to know her more.

btw in that picture. It looks like their is another girl? not sure but I think that is blue green hair? in the right side beside the spear.

[AlaAlba]

@tsunade: Yeah, and her hair style is also a win.

LMAO, you sure dont let anything slip over you do you XD
the girl is Fuse Aoba, kind of girl version of Keima. she is the 2nd heroine to Shino.

Spoiler for aoba:

[tsunade666]

HUWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!!!

That's like kami with different color hair but walking with a PFP!!!! and those eyes. Eyes that can only see two dimensional world.

Nothing pass my eyes hahaha

I know that. What I meant was, has Keima considered how many of the other girls in his class may have a weiss and perhaps a goddess in them? Think back to Chihiro's case. Elsie had been in the class weeks by then, why didn't she pick up that weiss earlier? So, how many others have they missed in class 2-B alone?

[BladeEntity]

I would find it so ironic if Keima was proven completely wrong about his goddess candidates I would just LOL...

Ayumi and Elsie FTW.

[tsunade666]

If Keima ended up wrong then RIP for Kanon.

Spoiler for aoba:

HOLY SH*T that is epic win!! Too bad the LN ain't canon, I think that girl would be able to add a whole new element to the story, just like how when the goddesses popped up. Now I must check out the LN. *_*

[tsunade666]

the novel isn't canon material? aren't the mangaka usually involve in making them? like what I read in bakuman when PCP get's a novel.

EDIT:

though kami DID never mention those girls in the manga..... even though those two look awesome.

EDIT: AGAIN.

can someone tell me who's this girl?

Spoiler for mystery girl:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_World_God_Only_Knows Check the Light Novel part. And yes, Wakaki is involved.

Also I wonder if Fuse Aoba is into the same games as Keima or if she's a fujoshi. Now I'm too damn curious about her.

[tsunade666]

I wonder how did the battle happen. Knowing a gaming girl. I wonder if she's into otome games. If she is. Then she might get the idea of what Kami is doing and counter attack it or ignore him or do lots of things. Knowing a thought process of a fellow gamer is bad in this kind of event.

So which is it? Jun's out because Keima says she is, or he's wrong about Chihiro/Ayumi and by extension about everything else?

As far as I'm concerned, it's guaranteed that Keima is wrong on some level. In other words, not all of the four remaining goddesses (if any) are in Keima's "Final Five". There are just too many things against him being completely correct.

First off, as you've noted with Jun, if he is correct, we could pretty much say goodbye to all of the non-Maijima characters, and the author can say goodbye to some of their fans. As a smart—and successful—storyteller, he's going to drag that out as long as is feasible to the plot, and we aren't anywhere near that point. Second, as you've also noticed, his entire premise has a flimsy base. Not only is he basing everything on the at-best questionable idea that this is all centered on him, but he's ignored/overlooked any number of extenuating circumstances, most notably the lingering feelings remaining in the capture targets.

I'm re-reading chapter 96 and the first panel of page 10 makes me think, "money shot."
You know what I mean.

He won by using the simplest tactic of winning a girl over - being honest.

Though I wonder how is he going to win Elsie over at the end. Letting her ride on his fire truck?

Spoiler for mystery girl:

Spoiler for mystery girl:

She is Sakurai Hiyori, a girl Wakaki sensei designed just for the special page(one opening page) on Sunday magz. it's a sugoroku game/japanese backgammon.
and btw, it's from a chapter that was out about 2 years ago.

Spoiler for Aoba:

I think what the author mean by "girl version of Keima" is that of the genius side of Keima. She is a complete all-rounder, she can do almost everything perfectly, just like Keima. though because of that she shows no interest at everything, even herself. that caused weiss got to her.
Though yes, after Keima got rid the weiss, (in the process Keima got Aoba to know about gal-ge) Aoba became addicted to Gal-ge. She even became popular at it and earned herself a nickname called "maihime/dancing princess" among gamers in the internet.

Doesnt that make the LN canon? though yes I think they wont make any appearances in the manga in any bit.

I also kinda hope Keima is wrong, his theory about someone setting up all these flags and events, that Keima is the so called chosen one () that chosed to catch the goddesses is all too outrageous. It's indeed will be interesting if it were right, but it's all kinda too forced. Keima could think of better theory than that.
