KamiKatsu: Working for God in a Godless World is a FantasyIsekai Comedy manga by Aoi Akashiro. It was adapted into a 12episode anime by Studio Palette. This is their first solo project. 260https://s4.anilist.co/file/anilistcdn/media/anime/cover/large/bx148048IaEk51Wtu07L.jpg 260https://s4.anilist.co/file/anilistcdn/media/manga/cover/large/bx130965NUvCqDInSqlL.jpg I remember dismissing this show while overviewing Spring 2023 the trailer and concept did not capture my interest. Later I saw videos trending of the incredibly bad CGI and infamous farming scene where the studio took liveaction footage and simply painted over it. According to sources confirmed via the authors Twitter much of the absurd production was intentional saving animation costs and also trolling. The premise is fairly unique. The MC Yukito is thrown into the ocean by his father and his religious cult devoted to God Mitama. As he drowns Yukito wishes for a religionfree world. Awakened abruptly by a handjob he finds himself in a faithless bleak world ruled by an evil Empire. Eventually God Mitama appears before him inspiring Yukito to establish a Mitamacentric cult harnessing her power to reshape the world. 740https://media.tenor.com/5uY9HUGKOZkAAAAC/kamikatsutractorkamikatsu.gif This is one of the most pleasant surprises of 2023 a very entertaining watch. This show has a heavy focus on its absurd comedy rivaling or even surpassing the absurdity seen in Konosuba. You have a similar concept of a levelheaded main character slowly losing their mind of the surrounding unhinged side characters. This show is very explicit ridiculous offensive and does not make much sense. Our heroes face struggles such as when they tried to infiltrate a sex cult. Where members try to outwhore one another and become the 1 slut. Then our party is put under a horny spell and the animation style changes to that of a lowbudget hentai. Yukito trying to threaten a woman with an icy glare that alone being enough of a trigger for her to envision a consensualnonconsensual sex scene and pass out leaving our MC in the unique situation of having to explain that no I didnt do anything and she just orgasmed and passed out on her own. Consistency is not something the show follows either intentionally or unintentionally but the show is too stupid for you to take it seriously. One moment you have a Kaiju as large as multiple mountains.. only for it to be shrunken down in the next scene and hit by truckkun. With no explanation or elaboration then moving on to business as usual. 740https://i0.wp.com/www.animefeminist.com/wpcontent/uploads/2023/04/kamikatsu9.jpg?fit=10022C566ssl=1 Being aired at the same time as Konosubas spinoff https://anilist.co/anime/150075/KONOSUBAAnExplosiononThisWonderfulWorld/about Megumim. Of the two KamiKatsu was easily the more entertaining one. In the sea of generic Isekai protagonists Yukito is a fun character to follow being intelligent manipulative and snarky. His disdain for religion stemming from his fathers cult ruining his past life evolves as he witnesses the bleakness of the new world. Mitama is your annoying loli God and ultimately the plot device for the story. She has a large affection towards Yukito which the latter exploits to fulfill his goals. The side characters are a lot of fun. The sisters always made me laugh with their lewdness and facial reactions Loki makes for a pretty good antagonist and Roy is one of the characters of all time.. being so down bad he would break the world record for the number of possible restraining orders given to a single person. 740https://i.yt.com/vi/6vC61FgcVM/hq720.jpg?sqp=oaymwEhCK4FEIIDSFryq4qpAxMIARUAAAAAGAElAADIQj0AgKJDrs=AOn4CLDEKToadkKOG3X9Nx03fv3emqJw On a serious note the animation is good despite the horrible CGI monsters. The voice acting is great you can tell the voice actors had a ton of fun and the music choice is pretty solid. Is this show worth a watch? If you enjoy Konosuba you will love this show a lot. And I would say its one of the best shows of the year.
