Nice arc's ending. I liked the part when Keima told Shiori that he'll give her courage. Besides, the insert song goes so well with the books invasion scene and the apparition of the PFP light.

Ok, I appreciate the fact that similarities/differences between the anime and manga are important when judging the episode, but I literally cannot read this thread because there are so many people talking about the manga. Some of us haven't read it, and probably won't. So do us a favor and leave out the manga discussion please? This is a thread for the anime, and if you want to talk about the plot then please do it somewhere else.
And you can clearly see them talking about manga anyway... They just don't listen.
This is a thread for the anime, ok, so do you think this automatically means that people who both read the manga and watch the anime can't express their opinion? So, where can I express my opinion about this adaptation?

I read the manga and anime, but I'm not with them in terms of fail anime adaptation. Really, How the heck can they put a chapter in a manga in a 20 minutes episode? Do the haters want to have slideshow of each part in the manga? Anime adaptation needs to stretch things a little bit. =. = I believe this is pretty much a very good adaptation IMO unlike other series out there.. >.>

There will be more than one season. Apparently the second season is starting April 2011.

I really loved this episode, the Shiori Arc is amazing, and the soundtrack for the episode was great! I really loved the one song, they used twice in this episode. Keima pulled off another great capture, I loved the moment when he pulled her up through the books.

As for talking about the manga, I agree with the fact that the adaptation should be commented on. Perhaps if there are spoilers, the manga readers should just put them into a spoiler tag or something. But ignoring the manga completely would be stupid, considering this is an anime adaptation of the manga.

I hope the OST breaks the full OP into separate tracks. I am completely intrigued by the first part that was used in this episode, but the rest of the song, not so much...

Fantastic end to a great arc! I'm pretty sure Shiori was my favorite, although Mio puts up a good fight.

Anyone know the song which starts from 02:32~ ?
It's still the same as the OP but in a complete version :D that song is more than 8 minutes long xDD


Yea, it's the full OP. Thats one reason why I was kinda disappointed in this episodes. Insert Song =/= Opening Song. :(

oh, that's interesting -- I loved the insert song! This is one of the few anime where I listen to the OP every week.

This arc was so dreamy. It was romantic that Keima could hear Shiori's inner voice -- in real life, that would be very bad -- but here it was precious.

Shiori was lovable as hell. I continuously had the urge to hug my screen.
The music and the relaxing tone along with Shiori's voice were the best things in this arc.
The only problem this arc had is that he making her fall for him doesn't seem convincing.
She seemed intrigue by him certainly but she didn't show any signs that she actually started having that kind of feelings for him.
Maybe the feeling of love was more like love to a savior that romantic love because she seemed desperate and he appeared like a light of hope at the right moment.

Really great ep. I have not read the manga but it was just beautiful, moving. Scene when Shiori is buried under books and reaches out to the light from the console and Katsuragi helps her to get out ... Damm... I love this arc.

A rather amazing episode! The way they integrated at the beginning and around the maze of books the opening part of the OP is amazing! Had to see bothe moments at least 3 times! Truly a blessing that surpasses the manga in every aspects. The other aspects that surpasses is Shiori's cuteness when she was small. Of course the best Shiori's pose was good! It's too bad they did not animate Elsie's drilling! Drilling is cool! At least they animated the one where Elsie fixes the roof.

One of the best things, that whole waterfall of books! Mesmerizing for the least and impressive. Loved the indirect kiss.
Loved the kiss part except the stupid book ruined it at the most important moment! D:
Other moments that were nice was how Keima was the "Thinking Man" at one point and Shiori's face close ups as well as blushing.

Great! I am not the only one to notice it as a title on the book.

Wow, the ending to Shiori's arc was handled pretty darn well by manglobe. I'd say that the anime version of Shiori's arc (or at least the final episode of the arc) was much better than it's manga counterpart. They did add some more background info and details that weren't in the manga, which really did help with the overall story.
I know! That what is amazing and Shiori as a kid is too adorable.

Shiori is the best shy character ever. Just love her.
^This! All of it! I would not the best ever but as of this season yes! There is no other girl like her! :D

I will agree with that! I was fascinated and the setup was excellent in regards to that light.

I agree. This was my favorite arc and Shiori is easily my favorite girl in the show. I wasn't expecting a kiss at the end considering her character traits, but I'm glad there was one. It just goes to show they save the best for last. ^_^

Wow, it is really episode 11 already? It went by pretty fast. I wonder how they'll do the last episode. Probably something bridging the way for season 2.

Also, loved the Ergo Proxy reference. :)

I really enjoyed the music at the beginning when Shiori was walking back to the library with the stuff she'd bought. This has to be my favourite arc as Shiori was the least annoying and the most realistic. Would've liked to see a Elsie-Keima romance but it's ok as it is. Can't wait for the next one!

You know, this series as a whole has been nothing but amazing. First they take my most hated chapters from the manga (the Kanon capture arc) and make it endearing and likeable, but now they give such an incredibly badass ending to the Shiori arc? I mean, Shiori! badass! those two words should never be together, yet here they are.

As a side note, however, this series has made me want to buy a PSP. Damn you Sony and your blantant product placement.
No problem is insoluble in all conceivable circumstances.

I am of the persuasion that Shiori's capture and Kanon's capture made this first season of Kami nomi.

Mio was completely forgettable, and Ayumi was a one-shot deal.

Shiori would make a cute little sister. :D

Oh, me too! I'll have to go listen to it again since I couldn't hear it very well when I first watched the episode. Other people were in the room and had the TV hellishly loud, so it would have been a volume war if I tried to actually hear what was going on in the episode. Everyone's asleep now though, so... *Goes to listen to music*

Oh, and you might still have a chance for your Elsie x Keima romance since there's going to be a season 2.

Great episode, I really enjoyed it. I even cried a little. Shiori is the best girl so far, to think I would actually like a quiet character... usually the more a character resembles me the more I dont like them.
Anyway this episode bumped this series up to a 9/10!

btw I just read Shiori's manga arc and it was the same. I dont understand the complaints.

i didn't really like the shiori arc as much as the other ones. it was pretty bland, well really bland in comparison to the other three and that kiss just came out of no where. maybe if the arc was a bit longer then... or maybe it just didn't suit my tastes :(


Pretty much seconded.

Prefered all of the others to this one, not to say it was bad, just not AS good as the others.
