Kamisama ni Natta Hi is exactly what I expected from Maeda. There are some beautiful scenes, and the ending is relatively bittersweet (though notably happier than some). PA Works makes it all look pretty (in particular a certain egg-cracking scene, for some reason), and the main insert song used for the feelsy scenes is stuck in my head. But as expected, the pacing is all over the place (which shoots the characters in the feet), and the humor is extremely random. Also, for most of the show, I couldn't tell what Maeda wanted the show to be. Sometimes it masqueraded as a ridiculous sports anime; other times a cooking show. At the very least, it surprised me every week, so I guess there's that.
I will say that the big plot twist was relatively predictable, which I actually think is a sign of good writing. One of my biggest peeves with Angel Beats is that the final revelation makes no sense chronologically, and thus cannot be predicted. On the other hand, Kamisama ni Natta Hi sets up the elements and follows them to their logical conclusion, which I appreciate.
Overall, Kamisama ni Natta Hi is what you should expect from Maeda: good in some places and annoying in others. I don't regret watching it, but unless you're a Maeda fan, your time is probably better spent on something else.
