Went down the same route as Tower of God, unfortunately. A lot of style, but little substance. Confusing story progression, horrible pacing, etc. The fighting was pretty glorious, but there was little else involved. 6/10.

I genuinely enjoy the first couple of episodes but when the story progress and they introduce borrowed power thing it became ridiculous for me. I love the battle fight animation though! 5/10

So by your logic, only people who like the anime are allowed to talk about it? I don’t know how any person would get valuable information about an anime if only one side is allowed to exist because people like you dismiss the other side from even speaking their mind.

This episodes fight was awesome but, that's pretty much it. Boy am I glad that this shit is over, never seen an adaptation be so bad.

I personally think TOG's anime was way better than GOH and I enjoyed it more despite it's flaws. But, GOH is just one big flaw the anime lmao.

Though I did find that plot they set up at the end to be interesting, I'll probably go read the manhwa eventually.

Overall, didn't really connect with the characters and I like a show more if I connect with them and this didn't but, fights are still dope I guess. 6/10.

Man this show was disappointing. The beginning was actually pretty decent when it was just people fighting to try to win this tournament as trite as that sounds. Once everyone can all of a sudden use crazy charyeok attacks, you get into the power scaling problem which wasn’t helped by the insane pacing. How strong was anyone in this show? Jin Mori is Sun Wukong incarnate. Does that make him stronger than Park Mujin? Does Park Mujin have ulterior motives for finding the key? Does that make Nox not evil? Why am I asking so many questions? Cause the plot of this show is terrible.

Did Sang Man-Duk stand on that position during the entire fight? OwO Suddenly the female version of Shen Long in this series appeared doing miracles as she arrived from I don't-know-what-place-is after the battle. Honestly the only good thing about the ending was the comedy lol.

Terrible series overall. While most actions scenes are pretty good, the rest is trash, and remember weebs, writing is always more important as long its not a comedy series.

I give this anime 1 carrot nose out of 10.

Bang average finale with some great animation.
While the entire season was plagued with a generic storyline, it did make for decent eye candy. Only silver lining that caused it to come together was this episode and much too late. 6/10 and it may be a lil generous.

I wonder when was the last time I felt this uninterested for a "decisive" final fight... You know when a series has lost its path once you start watching the episodes by inertia and sadly, that's what has been happening these last few weeks in my case. So in a sense, I'm glad this is finally over.

Overall, excellent production values but disastrous execution of a somewhat "simple" story. Especially during the second half of episodes, where the pacing and overall narrative became more and more chaotic to the point it was impossible for me to overlook them. Everything felt rushed, explanations as well as characterization were tossed aside in order to prioritise action and as a result, this conclusion ended up feeling quite hollow and lacking of any sense of impact or attachment. Such a shame, I really thought it would be fun ride based on how much I enjoyed the first episode...

4/10 - Well, two manhwa being adapted into anime -> Two failures. I won't even bother with Noblesse at this point.

In terms of story and plot, the only thing worse than GoH is Gibiate and that says a lot how horrendous the decision to crammed the 100++ chp to 13 eps. I gave it 6.5 (rounded off to 7) solely because of my policy of never giving anime below 5 and the score pushed up solely depends on it's decent to good animation and ost. The story, plot, and characters were extremely below average. The fight choreography also really needs polishing further as I'm not really satisfied with it. Well, better luck next time Crunchyroll.
I cannot bring myself to rate anime that I have completed below 5. Well, it just because I have use up my precious time to watch it. so, the worse you will get from me is 5 (changes may apply)

I didn't read the manga, so I'm coming at this from an anime only perspective. I can't tell you if this was a good adaptation or not, but I can tell you that I enjoyed watching God of High School.

The show's story was a mess, but honestly that didn't really matter. God of High School is an obvious homage to other popular shounen works, and because of that the story could take a back seat.

Honestly, it was the fight scenes that drove Goku's Bizarre Adventure, and Mappa was able to deliver some incredible looking fights. I really enjoyed watching the ever increasing power scale and spectacle of the shows fights, culminating in gods fighting each other in this last episode.

Tl;dr
The plot was so so, the fights were cool, and overall it was fun to watch. I'd watch a second season if one comes out.

So the final episode is here disappointed in how it turned out the whole series was so rushed and that final episode felt like they just tried to get it over and done with. The animation was on point and mappa did a great job. My complaints and why the series wasn't great comes down to the pacing and the fact that they shouldn't have tried to put 100+ chapters into 13 episodes. Even in this final episode a lot of my favourite parts were cut or altered from the battle and I feel like you dont get the same sense of jins power from the manga. Glad this is over Jujutsu Kaizen looks really good this season though. :)

This episode was so mediocre. The fights were awesome but the cheesy friendship shit and cringe ost ruined it all. This anime was very average overall, I'm looking forward to season 2 tho, because I wanna see if it gets better, giving it a second chance. I have a no drop policy, this includes franchises. Well, it started promising and got confusing and ended confusing.

The anime was just cringe: 5.4/10

All that excitement and hype died for me the moment we got a glimpse of a fight using chakreyok. Why would you give up great fight choreography in favor of generic magical power based fights?
either way, the story was never anything too deep to begin with so there's no sense in complaining about it's "rushed pace" or "poor storytelling" as i'm pretty certain that most of the viewers were not here to see how the plot moves. It was and always has been about the fights but now even those are mediocre at best.

I'm left feeling lukewarm.

The problem is, I like to pay attention to the dialogues to understand the story more, even if I don't want to, I actually enjoyed the fights a lot. But I got too tired of seeing the same dialogues and stereotypical things happening. I like to enjoy good stories, I used to be a movie buff, I think that's why I just can't afford to ignore the story and situation, cause I would have to rate this eventually...

What an Amazing Finale ...

First of all,
I don't care about y'all webtoon reader that complain every single scene, I'm really enjoying it as an Anime Only viewer...

What? It's bad because they skipped a lot???
I don't really have a problem with that, I'll just go read the webtoon again from Season 1... Problem solved..

I wanna give an appreciation for MAPPA that delivers the Amazing Work from the Anime Team ...
Really enjoyed the choreography, the no-cap and also the Godly Animation...

Overall Very Good 8/10

Your way of overcoming the skipped scenes just proves even more that this adaptation is bad, the fact that you have to read the source material proves even more that this anime is a bad adaptation cause really you shouldn’t have to refer to the source material to understand things or see skipped content that was missed in the anime

Okay, so there was a lot to like and also a lot to... well not like.

So whilst the pacing felt like a monkey did 30 kilos of cocaine and was locked in a room with a laptop, the characters are shallow and their arcs unimportant (I think the main antagonist's basic social Darwinist ideology was the deepest in the entire show and it was only loosely alluded to) and the world-building was mediocre, it is undeniable that the fight choreography and the animation that was invested into those scenes were insane. I've rarely seen fights choreographed as well as those in TGOH, and even then it might be one or two fights a series, not EVERY fight.

The only problem, though, was that we didn't care enough about the fights, stakes or even the powers themselves (I barely understood half of that shit) in order to make it memorable.

Like for real, can someone please tell me what the fuck that fruit Jin ate was meant to do?

7/10; niche, does what it's attempting to really well. It stays in its lane where we can turn off our brains for 20 minutes a week and watch some orgasm-worthy animation.

We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths.
As death comes to embrace you, you will realise what you are.
That's what death is, don't you think?

Here hoping that God of Highschool never gets adapted again. We don't need another shitty series to become mainstream like Dragon Ball Super did.



Demon Slayer had: Lots of cute girls, interesting characters, and a decent plot. This show has none of those things.


??? What plot? From the get-go we are set into a world where nothing is developed. The characters are shallow and too gimmicky to feel human. Zenitsu? An annoying piece of shit. Tanjirou? Literally feels sorry for everyone. Who cares if they tried killing him a second ago, gotta be a 100% goody two shoes who forgives anyone. The pillars behave just according to the pillar they represent, as if they are not real characters, and instead just represent a position. Michael Jackson's entire ideology doesn't fit with his actions, the demons are just "haha I am a demon I am superior to humans I'll eat you I'll kill you I am evil" and that's pretty much it. Its just another Bleach, that was adapted by Ufotable over Pierrot, and that's the only edge it has.

People adore Nezuko when she isn't even a character. She is just a mascot, essentially just another Pikachu that runs around doing nothing.

Sad that trash like this and SAO got gorgeous animation/ budget/ fight scene while other much better series got low budget to work with...

Guess as long as something is like a copy-paste of Dragon Ball and other shonen series, they'd get all the budget.

Mappa wasting its talent/ effort on garbage serie like this (sigh)
There're so many good shows they could have adapted instead...
Imagine Shinsekai Yori got GoHS budget... (bigger sigh)

The ending was dull. I don't know what to say about this episode cause it was so confusing.

The anime started off nice but from the middle till the end the story was so all over the place. I could see how rushed it was even though I don't read the manhwa.

Their good quality animation and music can get overlooked just because of their rushed and jumbled storyboard. If only they followed the manhwa accordingly...

Music: 9/10
Animation: 8.75/10
Story: 6.5/10

Overall: 7/10

Anime with weakest sakuga's,
And i think it's the most rushed episode,
Now i don't have any hype for 2nd season,
Doesn't feel like its the last episode,
I don't know how good the manhwa is, but it seems a bit boring to me after the anime

Fight scenes are the one and only thing that i like about this, mappa did a great job(again).

This show stopped making sense several episodes ago, the fights are well animated and all but that's all it has going for it. I still like all the characters but everything felt way too damn rushed. The fight between Mori and Jegal felt like it belonged near the end of the series instead of the first season.

This could've been an amazing anime, the start showed that it could've been a lot better than what we got, but, the biggest problem that we have here is the pacing. It's wayy off the mark, and it's not MAPPA's fault, like some people have said, it's Crunchyroll wanting to fill the story in just 13 episodes, MAPPA didn't have much of a change of making the pace any better, but they worked well on other sectors, the animation was impeccable, and the choreography was good as well, most of the OST were also good. But since it was rushed, the story and some characters didn't make any sense sometimes, so in the long run, it ended up being a really underwhelming show. For now it's a 5/10 for me, mediocre.

Well, overall it was a lot of process. I was thinking to myself at the start of the episode that they clearly ripping off the monkey king. It was obvious with the staff and the crown. Then of course the title popped up on screen blatantly saying monkey king. Which I admit took me by surprise as its a Chinese folk tale so it was a curve ball seeing it in a Korean written show.

Then there was the god who turned up and after using what I guess was a lot of power turned little. Which makes me wonder what came first. God of high school or Tsugumomo as the god shrinking is the same plot.

Not that it really matters what came first, its like the chicken and the egg. Still, a nice enjoyable ending with some epic powering up and kick ass battles. What more can you want.

There is this magic things that I still dont get where came from or at least how it works and then in the last episodr they bring this strange dude who is really strong and want to destroy everything,wtfff?? By the way is there actually an purpose on doing this whole fighting tournement? It seems like they rushed this anime so much that I cant even say what is the plot anymore, or maybe I m just dumb.

Would have been a blend 6~7 anime on my list from episode 1~9.
But as soon as they derail the story and give non-sensual powerups to mc group, the last 4 episodes dropped the score to 2 for me.

Flashy episode, decent end.

This had one of the best opening episodes of the season, I was invested after that one but I think they progressed the anime at too fast of a pace to actually let us truly get invested in it. The action sequences are great, it's flashy, fast and dynamic but beyond that, the story while it started simple and great but by the last quarter, it was barely coherent with absurd amounts of escalations. The character seems like they could be a great bunch but we didn't get too much time with them. I'm assuming most of this is just an adaptation problem and I'll probably have to read the manhwa to experience the real God of High school, I guess at the very least the anime was successful in advertising the manhwa. I had issues with Tower of God's adaptation but this while starting stronger ended up worse than that one. Nevertheless, I think I'll read the manhwa at some point.
