An anime that deserves to be watched. What starts off as an incident isolated within a single pantheon quickly expands to cover a wide variety of different gods and myths, from Greece to Persia. Our male lead this time around is Godou, a kid who was blessed/cursed with various abilities he stole from a Persian god he defeated in mortal combat. These abilities are a rainbow of destruction and visuals that keeps the action intense without all that "pause every twenty seconds to talk about our moves" nonsense that the shonen anime are known for.
In a good anime, every character gets a shot at the spotlight and this one delivers excellently on story and character. And plot. The powers and abilities of each character are rather diverse and have their own visuals to accompany them. The characters themselves are very likable and we see that each female's feelings for Godou seem genuine and aren't forced like they are in other harem anime.
I would've given this show 10/10 stars but for two reasons. One, I am not a fan of this cringe humor that the Japanese seem to always slip into their shows. Two, there is a particular scene that, while very emotional and touching, slides a little too close to hentai territory (don't worry, they don't actually reach it) and we are reminded about it for the rest of the episode. If you can manage to overcome those slight grievances I had against this show, you will enjoy it from beginning to end.
score 9/10
