He may need motivation but thats hardly the right kind. Godou isn't the type to care about what other campiones do, as long as they aren't abusing their power. He never wanted to be "Japan's Campione" to begin with.
Plus, any kind of romantic rival would just seem contrived at this point. |

To Pandora liking a fight, she'd practically accept it, a human necessarily would be a Campione if he kills a god because the god has no choice but to transfer his authorities, remember Verethragna? Godou's fight with him isn't exactly what you'd call by likable, he just practically stole Melqart's kill.

I think it would be still practically the same, because even if you say it like that, it still would be the human killing the god. There's actually no conditions written on being a Campione, just to be able to kill a god while you are human.
Ugh.

Yes....how to say this. For example (just example), Circe encounters Verethragna, steals all of his incarnations, then beats him up (for refusing to be her "bf" ), Verethragna barely escapes wiht his life. But then Ena, with Divine Possession and Ama no Murakumo, ambushes him=> already weaken with most of his power gone, most likely he will be slain. Do you think that Ena will become a Campione? I don't think Pandora will allow that
Just a feeling, there is no hard evidence However, I do think that you have to "satisfy" Pandora (or make her feel that you are worthy) in order to become Campione or get a new Authority. Spoiler for sth I heard about:

My take on this topic.
Regarding the difference between Loki and Godou, I think is the intent to do it. In either case if the human chose to fight a God of his own volition and through his luck managed to defeat him I think Pandora gives an authority regardless of her choice. In consequent battles she isnt as gentle, and it demands a standard because they no longer have only luck and Guts to pull it out, and have weapons capable of fighting Gods. And UltraGunner I think youre onto something, but I think that may be the case for every Campione, they reach some sort of understanding with the Gods they slain(as they Campiones and Gods are equal in some sense), specially with the first one(as we can see it happened to Doni too with the king of the Danaan). |

Because I think the weapon used doesn't matter. Ama no Murakumo is classified as a divine sword, Tome of Prometheus is a divine artifact, you can also see that if you read V8C3, the weapon used to kill Nuadha is probably Nuadha's weapon itself(did I get the spelling right?)

yes yes, you're correct. Man, I'm really bad at these stuffs, indeed at first look, Godou just went and "stole Melquart's kill" just like my example with Ena, the difference is that there were a whole bunch of incidences: The fateful meeting with the non-heretic Verethragna, Godou chasing after him, refusing to recognize Verethragna as a god or a hero (in the process overcome the Youth authority), getting Melquart provide assistance (which is nearly impossible for a mere human) plus some other stuffs, then the ultimate conclusion was that Godou stroke Verethragna down.
What I meant to say in my example was that Ena just jumped in sneakily and took Verethagna's head while Godou had to go through quite a lot, Doni also fought his first god head on (probably ) Yeah I know, these pretty much seem like bullsh!t (and god does not get ambushed and killed by human that easy, if he does, then he's a god no more), but just wanna say that it isn't just simple as "stealing some kills from others"

Volume 7 completed and we see some interesting stuff.
A new technique for Ena and Ama no Murakamo, and Godou figuring out how to bypass the Raptor's weakness. Odysseus was also pretty cool. Although, someone needs to slap Godou upside his head. After what happened with Athena and Circe, he should realize the necessity of getting a new authority.

Now what about Circe's last words about the white and black swords. What could the white sword be? Ame no Murakumo absorbing the powers of the sun and sky instead of the earth and wind? Or something else like an oracle of things to come. Final thought, he is just NOW is wondering why he did not get any power from killing Lancelot. Godou really is dense sometimes when it comes to important points. |

Godou is still trying to keep his normality side of his life, though these past volumes he is slowly moving to the point where the absurdity of his life is normal. His neighborhood's gossip over him, the way he interact with his harem, and finally coming to terms that hell no God is going to listen and follow his pacifism speech rather if he does does go about with this speech, he is going to let Gods keep attacking him with his guard down and allowing his harem to be in harms way.
