| Hell yea! So pumped for this season. |
~ El Psy Congroo~  |
| damn they started literally where i started picking up the manga. fuuu now ill never get to see the other conquests lol. |
    |
| I AM SO HAPPY THAT WORLD THAT ONLY GOD KNOWS IS BACK MY BRAIN CAN'T HANDLE IT!!! OOOOHHHH GOD, I MISSED THIS ANIME!!! |
 |
| Well, I was really concerned with how they would handle this, but I'm actually pleasantly surprised: the "recap" was rather decent and, aside from a rushed pace, everything worked out...for now, at least. However, I already knew this was going to be the messiest episode in this show, so things should get much better from here on. I do, however, wonder just how jarring this will be to those who haven't read the manga... |
| I definitely have some mixed feelings about this season. On one hand I'm really happy there's another season. TWGOK is one of my absolute favorite manga series.You don't know how excited I am to see the Goddess arc get animated, because it's absolutely amazing. On the other hand though I'm sad that his other conquers are being skipped over, they were a lot of fun. All those arcs made me love the series as much as i do, the goddess arc just made my love grow even more. I really wanted to see them animated and to have this show be as popular as it should be. It's great that we at least got flashbacks, but still. On my third hand however, I can completely understand why they did this. The Goddess arc is what made the manga as popular as it is today, no doubt about it. And if they do this right, it will make the anime popular as well I hope. Season 2 didn't do well in sales so they got desperate and went in a direction they hope would sell. It makes a lot of sense. I'm going to try and be hopeful though, because in the end I am still really happy to get the goddess arc animated. I was afraid that after season two didn't do well that we wouldn't get anymore seasons. And maybe if it does sell well we'll get OVA's or maybe even a prequel series of the conquers they skipped over. |

| just found out that this was up when browsing the latest section nice surprise. |
| Confused like hell, but after doing some research I see why I am. It was interesting, but a serious blow to many viewers whom have not read the manga. I guess we'll just see how it works, but I was definitely confused as fuck. |
Touch me, you filthy casual~ |
| already 14 losses souls captured but still how they will gonna capture 30k ? |

| Now when people mention it feeling rushed are you talking about the recap or the stuff with Kanon? Or just the whole episode in general? |

MaikShin said: Thank you. I've been planning to read to manga since I heard that some of the captures have been skipped.Read everything else up until now (Chapters 42-55, 66-113) This series does flashbacks from all of the above, specifically focusing on the conquests between 42-55 and 66-113. It is successful in its adaption I feel, but you will understand so much more by reading those. |
 |
| There was alot of confusion for me who hasn't read the manga yet in the first episode but i dont mind reading the skipped chapters. I hope the whole season ain't all serious and still has its comedy. |
| WOOT! Third season if finally here! I've been so psyched from the second it was first announced. People say that they skipped a few arcs, so I guess I'm gonna go read those. |
| Hands down.. I am so glad there is a season 3 for Kami Nomi. I have caught up to the manga but I really wish they would have shown the conquest. I really do hope for an OVA for each girl but back to the episode. Great idea with the flashbacks and well played. Animation looks fantastic and can't wait how far this will go. This is gonna be great with the Goddess and can't wait for my favorite girl to show who her goddess would be 5/5 |
| Being as I've only watched the anime, at least they were nice enough to give some background info on the arcs they skipped just to get to this point. I'll probably go and read what they've skipped over in the manga. |
| HOLY MOTHER OF FUCK! I have a lot to say! But first of all, THE GOD OF CONQUEST IS BAACKKKKKKK! Oh man. That first seconds. My heart nearly stopped when they played season 1's op song. They sure knows how to make people excited. The current OP song was also GODLY. I swear, every KamiNomi's OP songs are excellent. Yes, I am happy and overjoyed that season three is finally here. BUT WHAT THE FUCK! I KNOW THEY WILL SKIP SOMETHING. BUT THEY SKIPPED A CLUSTERFUCK OF HUMONGOUS ARCS! HOLY SHIT! I was ready to forgive them on skipping Sumire ( Ramen girl ), which is my favorite non-goddess girl. BUT WHY DID THEY FUCKING SKIP YUI, TSUKIYO, HINOKI, AKARI?! Those arcs will have a massive contribution in the Goddesses arc. Weiss, Vintage and shit were hinted in Hinoki's arc! Why? Why Manglobe, why?! We can wait :(. I guess the reason they skipped a lot is because they maybe a little bit worried that if they continue to show conquest arcs in the season three then maybe the sales won't meet the required quota to even plan a season four. Just a wild guess. But holy fuck, BD version of the second episode of Tenri OVA ain't even out yet! How the hell would people know Diana etc etc? It will affect the non Manga readers a lot! How sad. ---end of rant--- Back to the episode. Ignoring all the skips, THIS IS AN AWESOME EPISODE! What a good luck. For my favorite chapter from the Manga to be animated in the very first episode of the season three! WOOHOOO! KANOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON. BEST GIRL IN THIS SERIES!. <333333 OMG! Apollo, Haqua, Tenri, Diana, Elsie, Ayumi, Lune! etc etc. Really happy to see the cast again. Kanon songs<3 BANG! Holy shit awesome episode. Actually, awesome is an understatement! My favorite part of the whole manga is when Kanon confessed to Keima. Grrrr. Of course, Keima, best MC of all time. Yes, it feels like they wanna rush things. But I read the manga so its not a problem for me. I feel sorry for the non manga readers though. What else to say... hmm.. Oh well, EPIC EPISODE. I can't wait for more. I'm fired up! Wakaki/10 |
| My favorite anime is back :'D So good. Bummed they skipped all of those chapters, but this series needs to pick it up on the attention list. This show needs to attract more viewers. |
 |
| They skipped a part of the manga which is a shame i was looking forward to see some of those girls being captured in animation. What was worse is that it went immediately to Kanon who is one of the few girls in Kami no Sekai that i dislike, shamefully she happens to be one of the favourite girls of the author. Guess we have to live with it. The biggest shame however is that we didn't get to see Haqua's lifestyle and her funny abstract partner. And above all we don't get to see that scene!! (All Haqua fanes that read the manga should know which scene i mean) |
| kami no mizo shiru sekai megami arc without doubt it's one of the best arc in manga, in mangafox they even beat 3 top manga with initial N,B,F for a few month in rank 1. without doubt it's 10/10 master piece but too badddd kinda sad the other girl not exposed :( hopes they make ova for each girl just like tenri :( , even thou seems impossible to do that now :v even thou i said that :3 i'll still watching till the end, since chihiro here will be so amazing :3 |
| AWWW YEAHHH MORE ANIMATED TWGOK I don't want to bitchin about that timeskip, hell season 3 is rare as fuck you know ??? and the OP song was GREAT *eargasm* |

| Oh I think I'll have to read the missing parts from the manga :o Anyway it's good to see Keima back at stage yay >v< |
| I'm sorry, did I somehow miss an ENTIRE SEASON?!!? I guess they wanted to get to the good stuff, but skipping that many girls isn't fair, especially if some of them are important to the current plot! I was really looking forward to shogi girl, too...I guess I have to read the manga now. That being said, this arc seems promising. No way am I dropping this after loving the first two seasons so much! |
| Pretty good start I like how the focus is not for him to make girls fall in love with him but, to focus on the girls that already fell in love with him |
| Is it just me (To all manga readers) Or do you really like Lune now? I'm incredibly hyped for the amount of screen time she might get. Ahahaha it's amazing. She seems like an exciting character. |
| It's fine skipping a few girls. It's all a standard affair anyway (they have a loose soul, Keima solves their problem, they kiss blah blah). It follows the same formula as the other characters. And when it's time for those characters' goddess to show up they'll will most likely expand a little more on them anyway. |
| Episode 1 and things already picking up I love this anime |
 |
| F*** recaps. Is this the new trend this year? First with Rozen Maiden now this? Adapt properly next time please >_> Anyway, /rant |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| hoho 70 chapters passed in 7 minutes also elcie's voice sounds a bit off to me but that might be because i haven't heard it in a while i'll just jump on the hype train |
| They did it much better than I first expected but it was probably because that said expectation was near zero. For those that are interested on Yui Goidō (The girl that Keima swaped body with) and Tsukiyo Kujyō (The girl obsessed about beauty who grew as small as a doll) but do not feel like reading the manga, here's a small summary taken from the Kaminomi Wiki for their arc. It's somehow an important part to read because these are two key character this season. Yui Goidō - Gender Bender Arc Tsukiyo Kujyō - Moon Child Arc I do not recommend checking the wiki pages themselves because there're some major spoiler on it. I simply secluded the information about the arcs which are a prequel to this season. |

| MANN I MISSED THIS SHOWW >.< Love the new OP :D This episode was pretty intense, can't wait for the next ep |
 |
| Finally it's back, God, I've been waiting for this Poor Kanon ;_; This was a really nice start. I give it a 5/5. |
| So generic galge anime with no plot. 1/10 dropped. Finally 3rd season is airing. I love this Arc. |

 |
| HAHAHAHA. If you didn't read the manga you're gonna be confused as fuck. 5/5 |

|
| I'm really excited for the 3rd season, but really sad they summarized Yui's arc. That's one of my favorites! I hope there's an OVA for the one's they condensed at the beginning. |
| Decent start but I feel like I missed a crap ton. |
 |
 Our based god Keima has returned. Huzzah! Too bad a ton of content was skipped. Edit: Apologies for the width of the picture |

| I like the episode it feels somehow new and refresh with this Goddess arc. The only thing I want to know is: In what points does the manga make the other girls arcs? I am curious how all this incidents happened to Keima. Hoping to be a great season of KamiNomi. Well just that and thanks. |

I am curious how all this incidents happened to Keima. Hoping to be a great season of KamiNomi. Well just that and thanks. Between the end of the OVA and the start of the season 3. The OVA finish at chapter 64, season 3 starts at chapter 114. If you want to read the parts that they didn't cover then you should read chapters 65-113. XLNC said: On the other hand, The Goddess Arc seemed like an indirect, albeit a quite clever, commercial to the manga itself, as those who were confused on the story, or those who would like to know what they're missing, would be forced to read the manga. This is unlikely. The most probable reason is that there were too many conquest to continue at the pace the show was going. Season 1 covered 4 conquests, season 2 covered 3 conquests. It is easy to see that at this pace it would take two others seasons before actually reaching the goddesses arc. This is a bet that Manglobe cannot afford to makes. As the next season highly depends on the sale of the precedent season, the current season seems like a very reasonable way of handling it. If they had continued to animate the manga so perfectly, there would have lot of fan that would be rebutted by the constant pattern of 'capturing girls + the story not going anywhere'. Therefore the best way to approach this was to actually head straight to the core of the plot, aka the goddesses arc. The problem is how the time skip would be handled and I give props to Manglobe for that. Not only did they managed to seclude the important plot points of the arcs they skipped, they did so in an entertaining and clear manners. Deen should take example on how to do a recap of past events |
