History Trivia / TheWorldGodOnlyKnows

* IKnewIt: [[spoiler: Ayumi being Mercury's host. The author pushing Chihiro only made it more likely.]]
** [[spoiler:Myth/ClassicalMythology combined with one of Apollo's comments about how she ended up in Kanon because she's the god of music. Of the candidates, who fits the God of Travel most?]]
** [[spoiler:Subverted in the case of Tsukiyo; while Myth/ClassicalMythology would have put Diana, goddess of hunting, poetry, and ''the moon'' in her, she instead got Vulcan since Diana was already introduced as the one inside Tenri.]]

* CompletelyDifferentTitle: UsefulNotes/HongKong dub title: ''God of Gaming's Walkthrough in Pick-up''.

* TheWikiRule: [[http://kaminomi.wikia.com Right here...]]

* TropeNamer:
** WildCardExcuse

** Yuko Gibu voices both Yukie Marui and Mobuko Ikano.
** Harumi Sakurai voices both Minami Ikoma and Gira.

* ActorAllusion:
** Ayumi's position in the [=2B Pencils=] is that of the second guitarist. [[Creator/AyanaTaketatsu Her voice actress's]] StarMakingRole was Azusa Nakano from ''Manga/KOn'', also the second guitarist of her band Hokago Tea Time (of which the [=2B Pencils=] were [[{{Expy}} probably based on]]).
** One for the English Dub: The last time [[Creator/TiffanyGrant Lune]] held something similar to her Box Cutter was when she was [[LightNovel/InfiniteStratos Germany's Cadet Representative.]]
** A slight one in the English Dub: [[Creator/BrittneyKarbowski Kanon]]'s stun guns should remind you of [[LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex a certain]] [[Manga/ACertainScientificRailgun Electric Princess]].

* CareerResurrection: The entirety of the manga restarted Tamiki Wakaki's career, as elaborated in the [[Heartwarming/TheWorldGodOnlyKnows manga's Heartwarming Moments page.]]

* RelationshipVoiceActor:
** It is quite surprising that some VA's here (both Japanese and English VA's at that) have also voiced characters from ''LightNovel/InfiniteStratos'':
*** [[Creator/LuciChristian Elsea]] and [[Creator/MegumiToyoguchi Nora]] become Ichika's elder sister / homeroom teacher / dorm supervisor.
*** [[Creator/HilaryHaag Mio and Shiori's English VA]] voiced Rin.
*** [[Creator/BrittneyKarbowski Kanon's VA]] voiced Cecilia.
*** [[Creator/CynthiaMartinez Jun]] was previously Chifuyu's assistant homeroom teacher, aside from being an ex-cadet representative.
*** [[Creator/ChrisAyres Kodama]] becomes Ran's elder brother.
** Did you know that the voices of [[Creator/HiroShimono Keima Katsuragi]] and [[Creator/AmiKoshimizu Kusonoki Kasuga]] are also the voices of two of the Sanbagarasu (Crow Trio) SiblingTeam, [[Creator/HiroShimono Kuromaru]] and [[Creator/AmiKoshimizu Sasami]] respectively, from ''Manga/NuraRiseOfTheYokaiClan''.
** The voices of Keima and [[Creator/KanaHanazawa Shiori Shiomiya]] also voice Jun Mikuriya and Zange[=/=]Hakua Suzushiro respectively from ''Manga/KannagiCrazyShrineMaidens''.
*** [[spoiler: A bit of HilariousInHindsight that Kana Hanazawa voiced girls that have goddesses in them.]]
*** [[Creator/HarukaTomatsu Lune's]] voice actress also played Nagi.
** The voices of [[Creator/KanaeIto Elsea]], [[Creator/KanaAsumi Chihiro Kosaka]], [[Creator/AkiToyosaki Jun Nagase]], and [[Creator/RyokaYuzuki Mari Katsuragi]] also voice [[Creator/KanaeIto Amu Hinamori and Dia]], [[Creator/KanaAsumi Ran]], [[Creator/AkiToyosaki Su]], [[Creator/RyokaYuzuki Temari, Nana, and Hotaru]] from ''Manga/ShugoChara''.
** The voices of [[Creator/SaoriHayami Haqua]], [[Creator/AyanaTaketatsu Ayumi Takahara]] and Chihiro also voice Yuno Arashiko, Mio Isurugi, and Shizuka Sado respectively from the ''LightNovel/{{MM}}'' anime.
** The voices of Elsea, Haqua, and Kusonoki also voice Mihoshi Akeno, Sayo Yarai, and Fumie Kotozuka respectively from ''Manga/SoraNoManimani''.
** The voices of Haqua and Jun also voice Ikaros and Chaos respectively from ''Manga/HeavensLostProperty''.
*** So, Saori Hayami has gone from voicing a SugarAndIcePersonality busty Angeloid wielding a {{BFG}} to a {{tsundere}} [[ACupAngst size-conscious]] New Devil wielding a SinisterScythe.
** The voices of Keima and [[Creator/{{Kujira}} Dokurou Skull]] also voice Ikuto Tohoin and Koto (a.k.a. Obaba) respectively from ''Manga/NagasareteAirantou''.
** This series marked the return of the Creator/ChrisPatton[=/=]Creator/LuciChristian combo in the dub (playing Keima and Elsie respectively) after Chris had been away from voice acting for a few years.
** And now with the introduction of [[Creator/HarukaTomatsu Lune]] in Season 3, this trope now applies to her seiyuu, [[Creator/HiroShimono Keima's]] and [[Creator/MegumiToyoguchi Nora's]] regarding their previous roles in ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamUnicorn'', being the voices of [[{{Ojou}} Micott Barsch]], [[{{Otaku}} Takuya Irei]] and [[MissionControl Mihiro Oiwaken]], respectively.
** And since we're on the topic of ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}'', we have Elsea, Mari, Haqua, Shiori, Kusonoki, Yui and Ryou, appearing in ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamAGE'' as (in exact order) [[DelicateAndSickly Lu Anon]], [[DarkActionGirl Reina Spriggan]], [[MysteriousWaif Yurin L'Ciel]], [[BridgeBunny Romary Stone]], [[PluckyGirl Arisa Gunhale]], and ''BOTH generations'' of [[EnfanteTerrible Desil]] [[EvilRedhead Galette]].
** Meanwhile, [[Creator/AoiYuuki Mio's]] and [[Creator/SaoriHayami Haqua's]] respective seiyuus meet up again in ''Anime/GundamBuildFighters'', as [[IdolSinger Gunpla Idol Kirara]] and [[EmotionlessGirl Aila Jyrkiäinen]] respectively; the latter even brought some of Haqua's {{Tsundere}} tendencies.
** [[Creator/TakumaTerashima Ryou's]] and [[Creator/AyanaTaketatsu Ayumi's]] seiyuus voice the homosexuals in ''LightNovel/BakaAndTestSummonTheBeasts.'' Along with [[Creator/HiroShimono Keima]] turning from the insanely smart God of Conquest into [[IdiotHero the biggest idiot in school.]]

* TalkingToHimself:
** Parodied in Season 2, episode 12, for both the actor, Creator/HiroShimono, and in-story, as Keima contemplates what makes the ideal game, by way of epic [[BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind political debate and an intergalactic war]] between Keimanites.
** Played somewhat straight with the Jupiter Sisters. In the anime, they share the same voice as their hosts with added echoes for effect.

* InspirationForTheWork: Tamiki Wakaki has cited ''VisualNovel/YUNOAGirlWhoChantsLoveAtTheBoundOfThisWorld'' as an influence on the manga.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: There was a one-shot before the series proper began with a number of differences, including no contract, no memory wipe, a seven day time limit on the catch, a more mature design for Elsie, Keima acting and looking more like your average {{nerd}} and less like a ManipulativeBastard and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking his last name being Imai]].

** And since we're on the topic of ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}'', we have Elsea, Mari, Haqua, Shiori, Kusonoki, Yui and Ryou, appearing in ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamAGE'' as (in exact order) [[IllGirl Lu Anon]], [[DarkActionGirl Reina Spriggan]], [[MysteriousWaif Yurin L'Ciel]], [[BridgeBunny Romary Stone]], [[PluckyGirl Arisa Gunhale]], and ''BOTH generations'' of [[EnfanteTerrible Desil]] [[EvilRedhead Galette]].

** One for the English Dub: The last time [[Creator/TiffanyGrant Lune]] held something [[KnifeNut similar to her Box Cutter]] was when she was [[LightNovel/InfiniteStratos Germany's Cadet Representative.]]

* FanNickname:
** Yuima - Yui [[spoiler:in Keima's body]] during the FreakyFridayFlip arc.
** Some fans have also made a pun on Haqua's name as "du Lot of Deathflags", due to the serious mistakes she has made throughout the story.
** Then there's [[spoiler:"[[HotTeacher Nikai]][[TheChooserOfTheOne dokurou]]"]] as prominently used from FLAG 250 onward. The spoiler is there for everyone's protection.
