The World God Only Knows II

So this season of TWGOK is finished. I nearly find it intolerable about the fact that this trully awesome adaptation is limited to 12 episode half-seasons. If they would step it up to 22 or 24 episode full season the original arc would be a hell of a lot closer to being done. So far they've covered about half of the conquests. I guess qthe real reason for being bitchy is because I don't want to wait for Yui's conquest. If you've read the manga then you can guess why. If you haven't I suggest you do. I was ROFLMFAO over the Yui arc.

For a bit of background. TWGOK is about the protagonist Keima Katsuragi (aka The Capturing God because hes COD revolves around galge and never fails to get all endings in them) who gets swindled into forming a contract and team with the devil named Elsie (she's adorable and airheaded so don't let the term devil fool you) from New Hell to capture souls that were released from Old Hell when the seal, keeping all the bad stuff locked away, broke. And since the souls hide in holes found in peoples hearts (metaphorically i.e. depressed) the easiest way to catch them is make the possessed person fall in love. So that's where Keima comes in with his galge skills and gets all these girls (which he wants nothing to do with because they're real girls) to fall in love with him. After the soul's captured, the memories of Keima's conquest of each girl are erased so they don't remember being in love with him. And that's how the first main arc of the story goes.

The reason I want to Yui's conquest so much is because the loose soul that was inside Yui causes a body switch between her and Keima...meaning the male protagonist who lives in the 2D world and is having enough trouble conquering these real girls... has to learn how to conquer guys to get Yui and get his body back. Which in turn leads to the circumstances in the current arc of the manga, which I will not reveal, but to say its just as hilarious.
