And with Mamoru we're going to have LOL LIGHT IS IN THIS LOL LOL LOL OLOL posts, so I don't see the differences.

lol, watch Ouran Host Club please. If you think Fuku's performances in Akikan and Inukami are better than Mamoru's Tamaki in Ouran than... lol.

Mamo-tan and JunJun's skills are pretty much on the same level for me. Both overact and sometimes it works better with certain roles. I personally prefer FukuJun for Keima because Lelouch seiyuu jokes would be more fun.

It's weird using the seiyuu's nicknames...

Miyano's voice is more suitable for bishounen series, this series has more of a moe feel. I haven't really heard his voice in a moe series.

First and foremost, I'm glad that this will finally get an anime. It's been one of the more recent manga I've read that's very interesting as well as novel. I just wonder how they are going to end it, since it's still ongoing.

I personally root for FukuJun doing Keima just because the Lelouch jokes will kick a lot more ass. They'll hopefully animate Kusonoki well!

[Nosauz]

I just want at least some Hakua action because she's a babe, and definitely lots of Kusonoki, and of course I would love this to be two cour, but honestly if this was a one episode ova i'd take it too.

[physics223]

Among the girls I really like Sumire, Nagase, and Tenri. I wish they'd be able to at least reach up to Tenri!

This is really awesome news. Really glad that this is turned into an anime. I remember some members were already discussing what were some of their favorite VA's for which characters was back in the manga thread.

Now the question is: how is animating this? My guess is that it will be SynergySP, but then again I wouldn't mind JCStaff too much.



Pretty much how I feel.

lol I've been going through some famliy problems atm, moving house also so haven't had the time to get on the net for last week or so but here goes anyway



ABOUT BLOODY TIME!!!
Seriously can't wait for this, gonna be great!
Now all I need is my Beelzebub and Psyren animes and I'm all set.

[~Yami~]

yeah! I'm waiting for this!!

[Duo Maxwell]

There is god after all. I've been waiting for this.

[Irenicus]

I'd say damn right! God is Great! There is justice in the world after all, etc., etc.

But, like always, Japan's multimedia franchising practice is wrought with risks of Adaptation Decay, so excuse me if I calmly watch this from the sidelines with as little expectation as possible until the actual anime comes out, blows my socks off and lets me into the world that only god could've known.

Also, I'd like to contribute to the little side discussion about the Voice of God by bringing up a rather old but powerful evidence supporting the case of Lelouch-as-Dating-Sim-God (though I did like Tamaki very much).

[Mizuno]

I wonder how many episodes this will have.

That kind of "evidence" could just as easily "support" the casting of Zetsubou-sensei...

See...? And this one actually has more "evidence".^_^

Of course if SHAFT gets the rights to it, you can pretty much guarantee he will be voicing him...

[Kafriel]

An anime, huh...given the plot, they could add some amazing stuff in this, I think instead of adaptation decay we might be getting an adaptation possibly better than the manga itself! Of course, it depends on how they'll handle the matter (load it with fillers and have an abrupt, open ending or opt for an anime original plot after a given point and make the best of the plot?)

Maa, expectations for the anime is: Complete moe aim with lots of those popular voice actors. It just seems like one of those anime to end up like that (@popular voice actors), for some reason. All coming from a non-manga-reader though.

As others have said, it really depends on the length of the anime. Sooo...any ideas on when it might be getting released?

[AlaAlba]

at last the anime ^^ cant wait to see Elsy in anime version, she's my fave so far, love her often changing face expression, and she's cute

and wouldnt it better if the title changed to "The World God Only Knows/Kami no mizo shiru sekai?"
not all people know the japanese title...

[kuroishinigami]

Agree with AlaAlba. Some people only knows this series by it:s english name(or the english abbreviation, which is TWGOK) so it will be better to rename the topic title to avoid double topic ^^.

[mangatron]

Huh, I'm more interested in what CruncyRoll/fansub groups would name it, given history they'd probbly go with Kaminomi instead of TWGOK. It'd be a dilemma if that were the case with the thread title changed now.

[solomon]

I recently got hooked on the manga. Keima is indeed GOD, the loopy dating sim logic is hilarious yet oddly cute as well.

Kondo, Miyano, FUKUYAMA, KAMIYA??!!!

When I see Keima I think MINAMI TAKAYAMA (she who plays the boy searching for the one truth with the appearance of the kid but the brain of an adult)

[MisaoFan]

The story reminds a lot as Hayate no Gotoku because of the bishounen protagonist who tried to seduce girls. So it is SynergySP that the product or J.C Staff (who produced the second season of Hayate no Gotoku) ?

JC Staff.
Oh and I was also thinking on those studios btw.

[MisaoFan]

The story is very likely as Hayate no Gotoku because of the bishounen protagonist who tried to seduce girls.

[Arabesque]

^ But Hayate doesn't try and get girls does he?

The two story have a number of similarities, but at their cores they are different. But that doesn't really narrow down which studio will animate it.
