[Anime] The World God Only Knows + Season 2

According to the footnote of the latest chapter, the Anime adaptation of one of my favourite manga, "The World God Only Knows" has been announced! I'm so happy with this news. The manga is one of my favourites and is so underrated. It deserves to be more famous, and I'm sure an Anime adaptation, even though it will have a filler ending, will encourage many more people to read the Manga.

The story is about Katsuragi Keima, a high school otaku boy who is known as the "Capturing God" for his ability to complete any romantic Visual Novels and Eroge, and capture the heart of any 2D women. However, thanks to a contract with a devil, he now has to apply the skills he learnt in visual novels to capture the hearts of real girls.

the best news I heard today. Awesome, looking forward to it.

the seiyuu for keima better has some deep, stern voice to go with his otaku personality.

That's great! I'm kinda excited to see this series in motion and with sounds now.

One of the biggest things I look forward to after learning that a manga I read is being turned into an anime is what the voices of the characters would sound like. The voices I imagine for the characters when reading the manga always turn up to be different than the actual character voices in the anime.

I'm hoping Jun Fukuyama or Mamoru Miyano to be Keima lol.

since Keima sometimes change his stern personality into something different.

~i very hope Jun Will be the voice actor for Keima~

Oh yeah...I hope his seiyuu is the one who voiced Lelouch...cause it'll be funny...

OMGWTFBBQHOLYFUCKINGSHIT

Great news, hopefully the seyuu cast will reflect awesomeness of this manga...

Not surprised. I always felt that it would get an anime adaption eventually.

FUCK YES. Or at least I hope so. :|

Please let the anime be as awesome as the manga...

Exactly what I'm thinking, although I think Fukuyama's voice suits better for Keima. The producing studio better use someone along these lines.

And we will have opening theme song by FLOW and ending theme song by Nightmare

Like DOUBLE ARTS and MxO? D:



On topic.

The anime adaptation of TWGOK was inevitable. Not only is it funny and romantic, it is also original

Goddammit, I had almost gotten over the pain and rage. ;_;

Mmh, placing my bets on yagami light's seiyuu.

Hey you, this is like salt to the wounds... don't remind us o-O

Hopefully they get this ready to lined up to winter '10 season.

It's "Mx0" not "MxO". That aside, I never expected those two to get anime adaptations. So if you were trying to be sarcastic, it didn't work on me (but it worked on Klorofolun and Lamz0r).

I don't really care about adaptations, but both DA and Mx0 got cancelled even though they were good. That's what I'm mad about.

On topic, When is the anime coming out? Maybe nxt year?

Summary:

"Katsuragi Keima is known on the net as the god of getting the girls while in real life he’s known as otamegane and he hates all real girls. However he is approached by Erushii, a devil from hell, to help her in catching runaway spirits that hide in people. 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." (From MAL)

2. DVD Sales Decide Length of The World God Only Knows TV Series:

"Wakaki Tamiki tweeted in his twitter (@angelfrench) that the length of Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai TV series depends on the reactions of the viewers (i.e. the sales of the DVD and other media).

ryohayate2409sa: @angelfrench Is it one season long?
Wakaki: It's up to the reactions. I wonder how many episodes it will take until we see Tenri.
DiceKatKobe: @angelfrench What do you mean by "reactions"? Should we send emails to the TV company?
Wakaki: Frankly, the sales of the DVD determine everything.

Wakaki is anxious about the poor environment of the anime creators. "In the case of manga, the author can improve the quality of the work and make money by his/her private effort, but anime creators' efforts never pay.", he said. "I've learned how hard the anime production is, so I'm seriously thinking about how to sell it."
