The story feels pretty rushed but I can not lie to you when I say the fight scenes are cool as hell!

It's nice watching sometimes these kinds of anime you can enjoy even if you turn your brain off.

Also the OP is my fav this year so far

I dont know if the source is better but the anime is pretty bad

The story is pretty bad

The animation is fine but the choreography is really bad ( outside of episode 7 and 1) which is pretty important to an anime centered arround battles

The way the battles are done is really shallow and un-interesting

Ouh no I'm loosing .
My current tactics aren't working :o
How could we resolve this situation in a clever and interesting way ?

Solution : punch harder
Or
Kick harder
Or
Slice harder

That is just pretty bad fight design

There is also no highschool aspect in this god of highschool

Also it has innumerable plotholes

If you can bring whatever you want to these fights why not an actual sword ? Or a gun ? Or whatever

Green haired twitch moderator litterally pulls out a fucking JoJo stand in public but nobody cares

They have nano technology and super powered humans but their world looks just like ours ?

On another note MC is the stupid-funnny-archetype.idk how others feel about that but these types of characters are really low effort and never catch my interest



2-3/10 so far tbh

It's alright, gave me a bit of nostalgia because it sorta feels like a fighting game adaptation.
Who are you and why do you show your hostility towards a complete stranger whom you've not once spoken with before. Are you seriously asking to get blocked? Well, if that's what your intent is; to tempt me into throwing hands with someone as lowly and insignificant as you, then i may grant your wish provided you articulate yourself a bit better when trying to spite a person of my wavelength.

It crams too much action into it. I lack some world-building and story to follow, other than a tournament arc. The fight scenes are good.
Also lost much interest after the wedding episode, what even was that? I would've loved the show when I was younger, but I'm no longer a fan of shows where action is what carries the entire story. I'll still finish it though, probably give it an average score.

I've read up on the source material, and I am disappointed with the adaptation. I enjoy parts of it like the ED, production quality, and character designs, but what kills it for me is the pacing. While manga and webtoon chapters aren't exactly 1 to 1 in length, I was still astounded at the difference in chapters covered per episode. I did a quick comparison below with the God of High School and Tower of God (the other manwha adaptation) with other battle series:

Chapter/Episode Pace Comparison

0.97 [700 Ch/720 Ep] Naruto + Naruto: Shippuuden
1.00 [937 Ch/933 Ep] One Piece
1.31 [479 Ch/366 Ep] Bleach
1.56 [175 Ch/112 Ep] Yu Yu Hakusho
1.65 [228 Ch/138 Ep] Black Clover
1.71 [108 Ch/63 Ep] Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
1.96 [51 Ch/26 Ep] Demon Slayer
2.16 [190 Ch/88 Ep] Boku no Hero Academia
2.28 [338 Ch/148 Ep] Hunter X Hunter (2011)
2.46 [59 Ch/24 Ep] Dr. Stone
6.00 [78 Ch/13 Ep] Tower of God
8.46 [110 Ch/13 Ep] The God of High School - Projected to cover 110 chapters over 13 episodes.

The 8.46 chapters/episode pacing is so insane compared to those other series. If I hadn't read the source material, I wouldn't feel a strong attachment to the characters in the God of High School. No matter how good a fight may be, it's not going to be memorable unless you care about the characters. I'll try to do another pace comparison and look more closely at the pace of the first 12 or 13 episodes of the other series; maybe that will make the chapter/episode ratio closer as the long runners tend to have numerous filler episodes.

I think i should've read the Webtoon comic first before watching God of High School.

So far i've watched 6 episodes. I don't enjoy much the story (i feel it's rushed), but the songs and fight scenes are dope. So far, it's a decent anime adaptation.

It's funny how at some moment of this year I thought: "an anime with hand-to-hand fights would be great". When TGOH was announced it made me think it was an anime about normal people fighting. When they introduced those powers I was like bro... what?

It has good animation and the rest doesn't matter, it's hard to watch an anime without good characters. So, in short, it's irrelevant.

exactly when super powers were added ? man i felt dissapointed

Some scenes is rushed, I love the fighting scene but the borrowed power is "no" for me.. it's more interesting if the author focus on martial arts, I enjoy those. Borrowed power feels out of place for me. Why need monster in fighting? the hand to hand combat or some weapons like sword looks cool already!

I haven't read the manhwa but i think it suffers similar problems to the ToG anime. The main issue, in my opinion, is the adaptation itself. Just like ToG it was extremely rushed, cramming in a bunch of chapters into a single episode which rushes character development, plot, etc.

Besides this, i'm actually enjoying the series, not for the plot but for the fights and animation. The Op and Ed are nice too so there's that. I haven't read the manhwa yet but i don't really care for it as the only thing i care about are the fights.

I agree with all of your points there. Although, episode 7 moved it from a 7/10 to a 6/10 for me, that one was WAY too rushed.

I guess MAPPA is trying real hard to make this a good show despite the fact that Crunchyroll asked them to cram 112 chapters in 13 episodes. It's bound to have pacing issues but everything other than that such as the animation, the music, the action choreography bla bla bla are really good.

Updated the adaptation pace comparisons by only using the first 13 episodes of each series:

I didn't add Boruto since I couldn't figure out what chapters the first 13 episodes covered. In retrospect, Bleach was actually really fast paced in the early episodes.

If you're going to make a rushed 13 ep anime out of the well received source material don't adapt it at all imo.

The animation is fantastic, the sound/music is alright.

But other than that I can safely say that nothing else about the show is good. The only thing still keeping me watching is the occasional fight that has stellar animation. I can totally see this dropping to a 4 on my rating scale if the show doesn't pick up it's narrative anytime soon.

I made a post about why it is failing as an adaptation but it was taken done for being too much like a blog post. Long story short, it seems like Crunchyroll only gave their crunchyroll exclusives enough funding for 13 episodes, so the directors had to condense the narratives into a self-contained product.

Depends on what you define as good and bad. It's a discount-DBZ with korean teens and gods from mythologies instead of aliens and OG gods.

AKA: plot and characters will never be that relevant, mindless action is. Lots and lots of chapters (hundreds, most are the fights). Later on it also gets DBZ-style powercreep up to 11 (like, kill gods at the end of an arc, then train to kill even more powerful gods in the next arc, ad infinitum).

It would have been much better if not rushed, ruining whatever (few) plotlines and character interactions it had. But this is partially CR fault, as they clearly are only funding those "CR funded shows" with budget for one damn season, including those who desesperately needed more than than.

Animation and Soundtrack is GOLD, unlike TOG. MAPPA did a nice job on that.

If you liked DBZ/DBS, you will probably like the webtoon...

Mod Edit: Modified title for clarity and/or easier searching.


I only watched 3 episodes so far, and it's probably my favorite shounen since Hunter X Hunter 2011, simple, good graphics and it doesn't take itself seriously, just perfection. Wayyyy better than Kami no shit and Kimetsu overated, but there are always ways for shows to let you down.
