Today marks the third anime that I was following this season that has ended. The anime ending today is TWGOK: Goddesses Arc. As this anime is the third season of the TWGOK series, this summary will sum up the entire series in a general view. The anime begins with a somewhat careless gamer guy, Katsuragi Keima, whom starts out just going about being antisocial and insisting his games' worlds are better than the real world. Speaking of his game worlds, Keima plays galge, and lots of it. If you don't know what galge is... here: (Link:

But anyways, a demon, Elsie, shows up one day to disrupt Keima's peaceful gamer life by saying there are loose souls trapped inside the souls of these girls at his school. As for how to release the loose souls to be captured, Keima had to make them fall in love, much like how his galge works, just in reality. Once the souls are released and caught, the girls completely forget about the whole affair with Keima, thus leaving him able to move along easier than if they remembered. The first two seasons work off that going through multiple girls and multiple routes, if you will. The third and latest season is basically the same thing just most of the girls he "conquered" (as Keima words it) in the first and second seasons remember their time with Keima and also now have goddesses living inside them as hosts, which as you could probably guess, are fully unleashed by falling in love again, or getting love from the one they love, whom happens to be Keima to all of them. Unfortunately, a rouge demon organization, Vintage, is trying to wipe out the goddesses and take over hell, so Keima must work quickly and carefully to unleash each goddess in order to fight back against the threat from Vintage.

As an entire series I thoroughly enjoyed TWGOK. While it goes against my morals in a real sense, the comedy and the story kind of made up for it. Keima was entertaining in the sense that he basically wanted nothing to do with the real world for the vast majority of the series. At some points his awkwardness showed as he tried to essentially go about "conquering" these girls by planning out events like it was a galge he had played before. Although there are a fair amount of laugh worthy moments, there are some serious points when it's necessary for the story's advancement. All in all, TWGOK's balance of comedy, romance (regardless of how insincere the male was in his emotions), and a steady story proved to make the anime entertaining as a whole. And as an added bonus, a couple of the female characters' personalities especially caught my interest and assisted in keeping me hooked.
