(CR) Kaminaki Sekai no Kamisama Katsudou (KamiKatsu: Working for God in a Godless World)

[Stark700]

Kaminaki Sekai no Kamisama Katsudou series is getting a TV anime adaptation.

Synopsis

Yukito's parents are the leaders of a cult. After he gets sacrificed, he gets reincarnated into another world where religion doesn't exist and porn books are akin to a child's doodles. He finds that it's also a world where your life and death is decided by the country. While obstructing his friend's execution, both of them lose their lives. Just at that moment, the god of his religion comes to their world and revives them.

Reading that synopsis puts me in mind of the words of the late Adlai Stevenson - “It hurts too much to laugh, and I’m too old to cry.”

That's...a premise .

The anime synopsis is nearly foreign to me, since I read the manga before pandemic. The focus is more about power of faith in isekai. In general, the outcome of anime really depends on who make it. The ending production could be good or bad. The production budget may hurt anime quality, as it happened to last season's anime and upcoming anime.

This actually looks way cooler than I expected .

Spoiler:

So Yukito's life kind of sucked. Born into a strict religious sect to his heavily macho and zealot father voiced by Show Hayami, he had to undergo crazy rituals, girls being driven away from him, and the lack of time to really enjoy anything about life. It got to a point where he couldn't even enjoy watching porn! And unsurprisingly it all culminated with his family's sect basically sacrificing him to their God. Yeah, I get why he'd be done with religion by this point .

(So what are they going to do when they realize Yukito isn't coming back up? Or is the culmination of the series him going back and rising from the water with Mitama at the exact point he left ?)

Well, this Isekai experience is definitely looking up when you have Kana Hanazawa already feeling up your dick! Very thoroughly, I might add! Not to mention a drunk Sumire Uesaka pouring booze over some guys while she proudly stands above them! I like the ladies in this show so far .

Megumi Ogata is in this!? Wow .

I know it's not the Isekai experience Yukito was expecting, and I certainly wasn't expecting those obviously computer-generated monsters, but at least he gets into it and finds enjoyment in his new life and the people he's getting to know .

Alural is surprisingly enthusiastic about buying a smut book along with Roy! And she applied those lessons well with Yukito .

But in a world without God or Religion is a society that reveres death and basically makes suicide a communal experience. And for anyone who doesn't want to die are treated like deviants whom the empire is free to kill at any moment. And then it becomes Alural and Silural's turns .

Oh hey, Junichi Suwabe as Bertrand! He wasn't on-screen for long, but he made quite an impact. Still pretty satisfying watching him get consumed by Mitama though .

When he needed God the most, Yukito finally prays to Mitama and summons her...and she's a very affection and enthusiastic God voiced by Akari Kito, who seems as OP as you would expect from a God and utterly devoted to Yukito in a playful way. I think Alural has competition !

Mitama obviously revived Yukito and Alural, but is there a chance she saved Silural too ?

This series is kinda nuts so far... but if an isekai has Junya Enoki as the MC its probably a guaranteed 4/10 poor guy only gets to take out Matsuoka's trash. The voice cast is pretty stacked otherwise -- HanaKana, Akarin, Megumi Ogata, Uesaka Sumire, with a bunch more yet to be introduced.

Junichi Suwabe literally appeared to die in, like, two minutes .

it was better than I thought. The first chapter did gave an impression besides the cgi monsters.

Spoiler for ep1:

Since this is actually a manga even though it is parodying isekais because haha and there isn't exactly much to watch today, I'll probably continue for now, but it was an iffy episode
The pacing was extremely fast, and the CG was hideous and there seems to be scenes that were reused, and the jokes were generally not funny if not cringey. Not sure where it plans to go, but I don't really care too much right now. Like I said, it was a bit too fast to get to that point.

Spoiler for Ep1:

Honestly I think that was a pretty strong start. It's all kinds of crazy, but in a fun way. In terms of main characters that die minutes into their show...I really like Yukito. The flashbacks worked pretty well to establish why his mindset is the way it is and how brutal things have been for him. Growing up with a creepy sect of bodybuilders definitely wore him out to the point that he was dead before getting put through any rituals.

The voice cast is definitely stacked! Plus can't go wrong for a character introduction like what they did with Alural . Definitely a way to make a first impression. While her last "visit" before the end of the episode was pretty comical, it does make sense. Knew her last day was upon her and she wanted to spend that time with Yukito.

They definitely didn't hold a lot back here. Religious sacrifice, the characters drinking up a storm in the bar, lot of blood, monster attacks (the cgi was weird but kind of worked), a loli deity doing...things to the people that harmed her precious Yukito. Very busy .
