Kind of miffed at Crunchyroll for changing Elsie's addressing of Keima as "God" to "Divine One." Did they think people would get offended or something?
It's arguably a closer English equivalent to the nuance of 神 than simply 'god,' but it's horribly awkward.
Ah that makes sense. Still, as you said it's pretty awkward, so I believe that "God" is a better fit.
Kuregahime 1: Fun... and I am so jealous of that guy. So pretty D:

In response to the recent podcast: When I started reading the manga of The World God Only Knows, My first thought was actually "oh man this is gonna be one of those lame gimmick harem thi-"
SOME TIME LATER
Spoiler:
All in all I'm going to say that I think it's
good
solid, not fantastic, but god damn does it gets much better treatment than it deserves.
I just started on Star Driver: if this show keeps being so absolutely fabulous, I don't care if it doesn't make sense; I'm just enjoying the pure spectacle of it.
Kuragehime was worth the wait. And yeah, that guy has it way too easy.
If The World God Only Knows ends up actually being good, I might backtrack it, but as it is I'm watching way too much other stuff.
So I started watching OreImo... and I love it. initially I batted it down and didn't even think about it, until I saw the latest bakacast ep... but I haven't seen so many series I like in one season since... since i started bothering with seasons?
I'm actually really enjoying this season far more than others, so yeah. With Bakuman, OreImo, Star Driver, Yakumo and Fortune Arterial... all of which I really like, and then MM! and P&SwG, which I also kinda like... I'm REALLY enjoying this season.
Indeed, this season is much better than any in recent memory.
I'm watching Panty & Stocking, OreImo, Squid Girl, Iron Man, Star Driver and Samurai Girls. They're all good shows, although I wouldn't call any of them great.
Rio is the titular character in several pachi-sio (pachinko parlor-style slot machine) games. Now she stars in her own anime. No seriously this is what this anime is about
Kuragehime ep 2: I'm not really liking the constant playing up of the whole hipster thing, but most of the characters have likeable aspects to them. Still p. good.
