The World God Only Knows (manga thread)

[Irenicus]

Oh damn, the twist! I thought I was watching M. Night Shlamayan for a second there.


Quiet Lurker: please put raw discussions in spoiler tags for us non-raw readers. Thanks. Anything more than "oh snap!" can be spoilerish even if you're very careful.

Ah this is the first time Keima made a mistake. Talking about your plans in front of the target is a very careless thing to do. Can't wait to see how it turns out.

[Quiet Lurker]

So, Keima gains a stalker.
Should make future "captures" a bit more complicated, being under surveillance 24h a day.

Then again, there is already potential for school life to get very, very complex for the poor guy who doesn't want anything to do with the real:
- Ayumi played matchmaker for Keima and Chihiro and probably believes they are going steady.
- Their mutual friend Miyako (The forth member of the Chihiro's "band") bore witness to Keima's embarassing banners for Ayumi in chapter 1, and most likely believes Keima is Ayumi's boyfriend.

Given that Elsee is also in Chihiro's band, a tiny little slip-up (which is not inconceivable given Elsee's propensity to get Keima tangled up in club affairs) could unleash a raging whirlwind from which "God" himself cannot escape.

Isn't everyone's memory during Keima's "catch al girls" mode erased after the Kaketama got captured?

Their memory, yes, but their feelings, no; but since they have no memory of what happened, they simply won't have any idea they were in love with him

thus explaining the "weird warm and fuzzy feeling" they have but have no idea where it came from when they look at him after the "Post-I see the Ending" arc :3

[kuroishinigami]

If that's the case, then Miyako wouldn't think that Keima is going out with Ayumi right? After all her memory about all those incidents leading to the ending is already gone.

Ah, but Miyako wasn't possessed by a spirit when Keima stood on top of the school and proclaimed his undying love for Ayumi. The memory loss only affects the possessed girl and lasts from the moment of possession to when the spirit is exorcised. For example, in Shiori's scenario, the literature club president definitely did not forget that Shiori barricaded herself in the library.

Similarly, Hakua did not forget Keima because her possession occurred after they were introduced. She has perfect recall almost to the point of her possession. (Then again, she IS a demon so her mind is probably stronger than most mortals)

Hence everyone except Ayumi would remember Keima's embarrassing banners (they just avoid mentioning it because of Keima's reputation as Otamegane), and poor Nagase-sensei remembers Keima but most likely can only recall half of her first day as a teacher and has to be reminded by Nikaidou-sensei about what happened.

Just saw the one shot raw version of TWoGK. Proto-Elsee with big boobs! and the tsundere which is a mix of twin-tails and the doll girl remembers.

So that's how it goes. Thought every other people's memory get erased too since no one mention all those crazy thing he do during the courting process

[-Sho-]

Chapter 46 :

Story with the doll is finish . Keima did it . Yeah , he kiss a little little girl maybe he kissed all her face lol

[risingstar3110]

How about she kissed him then, then we won't have to worry about that...

Spoiler for Ch 46:

But yeah Keima, i give him my respect. Rushed out to reach her even when Else may not be there to help (Keima do not trust Else's ability..... right?). You are the only one deserve that harem.....

Love how the cat transform from super scary to awful cute when you are big enough.

We have 10 girls now, right? Hope next chapter gonna be a major change in routine. Every girls pls back on screen pls ^^
I vote for a secret Keima's fanclub behind the school....

[ReddyRedWolf]

I just downloaded the 47 to 55 raws.

Spoiler for The next three arcs. Spoilers!:

1. Hakua returns and is quite Tsun-tsun in front of Keima. She gets adopted by Keima's next door neighbor. Keima helps her capture spirits on her own. Meaning no girls captured for Keima. Elsee pouting that Hakua is catching up to her.

2. Swimming girl Kohai and Tanabata. Keima pulls an unreachable senpai bishi. The swim club girl is trying to get close to him. The Tanabata capture is quite irony as the girl would forget about him when they kiss.

3. K-On club?! Chichiro, Ayumi, Elsee and generic girl form a band. But their grades are dipping. Thus they capture resident genius Keima to tutor them. Kanon returns! Interested in Keima she also wants him to tutor her. The three girls all have a crush on Keima. Elsee asks them if they all like Keima. Of which they get embarassed and Keima punishes Elsee for that goof. All the girls except Elsee get 100 while Keima get 99.

I think the author is reading and watching the same manga and anime as me because those were gags in 4-koma series K-On and Minami-ke

Umm..

Spoiler for reply to above spoiler:

Elsee doesn't ask if they all like Keima. Kanon asks Keima if she has met him before, which Elsee reply that they haven't met, talk,...... or kiss. The last comment make all the girls blush and Keima punish Elsee for the unnecesary last word

- Drinks tea.
- Pokes eyes. (Shinku pokes Jun's eyes with her bonnet in the first episode of the anime)
- Has a extremely high sense of pride.
- Now that she's shrunk, Tsukiyo is also doll-sized.

All that's required is a phobia of cats and the comparison would be complete.

Spoiler for ch 46 is out:

Fear to cat confirmed. Although if I were some 6-inch guy, I would get terrified even against kitten....

[FateAnomaly]

You have to wonder how she poke Keima eyes when he is wearing glasses though.

The same way Shinku poked Jun's eyes: by going under the glasses.

Seriously though, is Shiori the ONLY non-abusive girl so far?
- We have Ayumi who combines strangling with Orwell's 1984. (Props to those who get the reference)
- There is Elsee who force-feeds Keima food unfit for human consumption.
- We also have Mio who sicced her bodyguard on Keima and seems to have taken servant-abuse lessons from Louise de la Vallière.
- Kanon with her penchant for cooking Keima alive with TWO stun guns.
- Kusunoki with her arm breaking and face punching.
- Hakua with her repeated head clubbings. (I ship Hakua x Keima so I will not provide links to examples but they're there. )
- Chihiro is Hakua-lite.
- Nagase has a combination of strangling and locker-to-face abuse.
- Finally there is Tsukiyo with her slapping and eye-gouging.

[ellifeedn]

Maybe he wears just frames?

Just wait for it after the Hakua arc.

Am I the the only one hoping when Elsee's older sister shows up she looks like a more mature Elsee with boobs.
