Two great hit makers collaborated in “Kamigami no Asobi”. They are, Broccoli and Elements Garden who hit out of the park “Uta no Prince-sama” series and Kazuki Yone who illustrated “Hakuoki” series.
“Kamigami no Asobi” was released as Otome game from PSP. The amination has televised since April 2014. A new series has been under production curently. It enjoys high popularity now. A variety voice actors not only popular but also experienced have been involved; Miyu Irino, Hiroshi Kamiya, Hochu Otsuka. Yuto Uemura is expected bright future. The reason for variety voice actors are involved is all charactors in the game are gods but they are so unique. Probably, I can’t say in a word “unique”.
The story unfolded when the main character Yui Kusanagi was transported to the mythlogical world by a sword which belonged to her house (Shinto shrine) storage. In the mythologival world, they had a problem: “There is a god who hates humans.” To solve the problem, they mimiced the human world and created a school,”miniture garden”, and tried to rerecognize “connection with god and human” that has been almost forgotten. Yui as a human was invited to the school to teach “what is human and love” to troublesome gods. Her school life with gods started in this way.
Honestly, I haven’t thought of the connection between gods and school life. If you consider and recognize this unlikely setting, you will be able to deepen your tie to your favorite characters.
Talking about characters, you are going to manipulate gods. There are many kinds of gods: Greek mythological gods, Japanese mythological gods, and other gods. Since the story is based on the myth, their relationships are associated with myths.
Apollon, who is cheerful but somehow a funny man, is related to Hades who prefers to be alone, and Zeus who is the origin of the all tragedies. Hades and Zeus are appositive to Japanese myth; actually they are brothers. You will enjoy the story more, if you know the myth.
I just started playing this game as a beginner; however, I am impressed from animation more rather than from the literalture mythology. The beginning of the the first episode unfolded with Apollon disguised. But I was puzzled why the battle scean started in that way… I am anxious anout the development. If you are so anxious with the reason why Apollon disguist, please take a look at “Niko Niko Doga”. You can watch the episode without charge. I can’t stop feeling without the spirit of the staffs who created this story. If you watch this scean, I am sure you will become curious about the development.
The Divine were trying hard to understand the school life and relationship among people from Yui’s instructions. As a result, it happened to be an interesting outcome. When Loki, who was a god of emotion, decided to participate in the early morning practice. I really loved his saying he wanted to practice so early. It was beyond my imagination.
Also, Hiroshi Kamiya, who is recently famous for acting Levi, is playing Balder.
Balder is a god of light and very modest. I am impressed Kamiya plays Balder. Kamiya sings the theme song with Balder’s voice; that makes me feel voice actors are so awesome.
Probably devine’s innate goofiness will be the essence of the story, so I am going to enjoy until the end of the animation without spoiling the story. Hopefully I want to play the game again if not Hades rout.
I highly recommended Hades. Immediately he opened his mouth saying, ”You will be cursed if you hang around me”. Then, he tried to have distance from Yui and others. Hades is a mysterious guy. If you hear about him in this way, you might think he is a chaotic person. Hades is a devine of realm of the dead. He is carrying over the curse of sinners in the underworld, so he makes everybody cursed.
To avoid the situation, Hades tried to keep distance from others. However, under Yui and others influence, Hades noticed even unhappiness could become different way if he changes his point of view. I can’t describe anything when he noticed the view and showed relieved expression on his face. I really wish I could be with him more, treat him with his favorite strawberry Daifuku, and make him happier.
The main character Yui tried to hard even she encountered sudden absurdity. That makes me think her so cute. Yui’s voice actress is Saori Hayami. So she sets off Yui’s honest genuine characteristics. Don’t get down, even Thoth annoys you every time, Yui!
As I mentioned, the first episode is on web video site without charge. The latest episode is also on the web for limited time offer. (As of May 2014).
I belive televised otome game animation will make you enjoy the imaginary situation without thinking anything. If you have an interest, please take a look at the video.
