No but its very very entertaining nonetheless. To summarize this is the third and unfortunately likely last season of The World Only God Knows. The basic plot is that Keima Katsuragi was tricked into signing a contract to rid lost souls from attaching themselves to girls with empty/hurting hearts and to do so he has to make girls fall in love with him and obtain a kiss in order to fill the emptiness of their hearts with love for him instead pushing the loose soul out in the process. Now I wont go into discussing the previous seasons worth of context but Katsuragi goes from girl to girl helping them in various ways that show genuine care and respect for each girl in a way that I thought was quite touching. Each girls arc is tremendously good as well some are better than others but its guaranteed to tug at your heart strings a little bit. However there was one important thing I left out: the girls forget Katsuragi existed in their lives once the spirit is removed making them completely oblivious to his nerdy self afterwards. So what makes the third season special? This time six Goddesses known as the Jupiter Sisters put themselves in six of the girls Katsuragi has helped which fully bring back their memories of him. Now you can imagine this causes quite apredicament as multiple girls try to get Katsuragi at the same time. The resulting drama is beyond entertaining I have never seen so much lore and depth in a harem show before watching this. Each and every episode leaves you wanting more until it reaches its grand finale at episode 12. Tragically youll find out later that there are 4050 odd chapters that are still left and will never be animated. Even more tragic is that the manga is not even in English print so you cant support the creator even if you wanted to. If you can read Japanese however you can buy the whole series for very cheap and it is well worth the read. Characters: 9/10 Expanding on what I said previously without spoiling anything this harem is unique in a way that you really are rooting for pretty much every girl in this show. There is no best girl blue hair destined for second place girl or anything of that nature. Each character is developed so solidly that by the time you get to season 3 you already know most of these girls trauma likes/dislikes and their personality. It made me actually sad to know that in a story like this there can only be one girl picked. I really wanted all of them to win to get the happy ending they deserved and have a nice epilogue with Katsuragi. In a sense every girl is best girl in this show. There really arent any bad choices and who actually wins will leave you stunned at first but not surprised once you think about it. Visuals: 8/10 The visuals were pretty good in this show. There wasnt any jarring CGI the animation looks great for 2013 and the action scenes were pretty good. Audio: 8/10 The audio of this show is actually very interesting. The voice actress that played Kanon Nakagawa in the first season actually launched a successful idol career from this anime and you know what? The songs she has in this show actually slap. Give it a listen if you dont believe me its the real deal I can assure you. https://www..com/watch?v=WyJJqPskHyg Enjoyment: 10/10 If you couldnt tell already I really enjoyed this show. The first season starts pretty slow but it goes from 0100 very quickly. Even if you arent a fan of harems the MC has a knockoff PSP 3000 what is there not to like? Whats cooler than an anime with a PSP knockoff in it? Spoiler:
