The World God Only Knows (manga thread)

The Japanese title is Kami no Mizo Shiru Sekai

Apparently the spirits only hide in the hearts of girls and the only way to get the souls out is by making the girl fall in love so the spirit gets forced out. And he’s not allowed to fail or he will lose his head.
Anyone reading this awesome manga besides me? Its very well written and mainly about the otamegane wooing girls to free them from evil spirits.

I have read up to chapter 3(latest scans so far). I was laughing so hard with the stereotypical description of the tsundere. Definitely a must read.

Keima reminds me of Lelouch, but with glasses. And for a demon girl from hell, Elsee is waaay too cute. Her reaction to Keima's "confession" was priceless

Nice recommendation, I'll definitely be following this one

I don't really like the "otaku" jokes (in the sense that the main character sees the world through otaku eyes -- zomg dating sim girls and all that) but otherwise this is turning out to be quite funny.

I mean, aside from the fact that he's an otamegane, that guy actually is a lot more interesting than most of the male romantic comedy leads. He's not a perverted wuss, doesn't look like one, isn't being surrounded by girls for no apparent reason (except one lonely demon girl who thinks he's a god ) and has some thick skin to boot.

Compare this to, say, Maken-ki, which was posted on onemanga around the same time; the lead from that manga just disgusts me with the ultra-obvious "I look like a motherf'ing wimp and I act like one!"

Chapter 2 was the best to me though. "I'm the illegitimate child of your husband," oh sh-

I'm interested. Before I start, do you know how many raw chapters are released so far?

According to manga updates its 4. Since, its released weekly I suppose the number should be around 5-6.

I find the series to be pretty amusing so far. If it keeps me laughing I'll probably keep reading it. Also I agree with Irenicus about Chapter 2, really funny there.

LOL, Keima was even more like Lelouch in this chapter. If they ever make this an anime, they have to get Jun Fukuyama to play him

Bearshare told me to check this out and the first chapter was pretty damn fun. Thanks to this thread I've been using the Lelouch voice in my head for Keima but I have to admit it definitely fits lol Hopefully Fukuyama or Miyano get to play this guy if it gets an animated version in a few years time.

Haha... This manga is interesting.... (since he has no interest with real girl that remind me about myself....)
Yeah... A bit reminding me of Lelouch when I see his style...
Agree with Westlo about voice casting (if it's in anime).....
Well... I will look forward to see about the next chapter....

Read all 4 chapters now, this is a real fun manga and I'm really enjoying it... K.Rie has to play the rich/poor Tsundere chick if this turns into an anime.

The girls aren't heart broken, they don't remember what happened after the spirits are removed and don't know that Keima doesn't really care about them.


A note of warning to all: You should not use the method that Keima uses to win girls' hearts in real life, which is playing thousands(?) of dating simulator games for experience and using that to romance girls.

Though I'm speaking from a realistic point of view, I'm sure that people aren't desparate enough to attempt that, right?
