Personally I'm in the Tenri camp, but I pretty sure that it won't happen. I really hope that Keima doesn't end up with Ayumi because it'll end the story. Though I hope it to end by the end of this arc, or go into a goddess arc. Oh and Haqua with Keima would never happen. My all seeing eye predicts it to be so. But the one thing that I think we're all forgetting is Elsie. Iwish she came back into the action because the story loses itself w/o her. (But that's just me).

Liar Game is more dark in terms of plot twists though.
I know. I am current. (Side note: I wish that they would make it into an anime series.)

Keima ending up with Ayumi will not necessarily end the story. You can still do harem-like hi-jinks.

As for Haqua not ending up with Keima...
Spoiler! :
BLASPHEMER!!! HERETIC!!! KILL!!! MAIM!!! DESTROY!!! :evil: :twisted:
Okay...Rant over...Yeah...That feels better... :P :wink: :roll:

Honestly, I cannot imagine a Keima x Elsie pairing. Not enough flags. Even if they existed, Keima keeps on turning them down purposefully. If anything, it would be one-way street from Elsie's direction.

Could actually be the arc that will end the series though.

It would have to be. I know that Elsie has a commanding fanbase in Japan, but she just lacks the "right stuff" to make her the romantic heroine of virtually any story, unless the author decided to peeve off their fans.

The funny thing is that I have seen other similar heroines in anime that have gotten the guy, but Elsie just lacks whatever it is to make it happen.

When i said i wanted elsie back in i didn't meant as a love interest, but more as a comedic relief like she was before. She could be more involved with the story too. Like she is the real boss of Vintage or something remotely plot twisting with her. I like elsie and her "elsie-ness".

You know, Elsie being the head of Vintage somehow just sounds about right, especially if we put the pieces together up until this point. Either that, or she is an unwitting puppet of Vintage (sounds more likely).

For the first scenario to be true, Elsie would have to be smart and cunning enough to play the role and trick/brainwash everyone into thinking that she was how her current character is presented. The other way is that she would have to brainwash herself to cover her tracks while her other persona did the dirty work beforehand or did it without the persona we know knowing what was happening.

We could also say that the first and second scenarios of Elsie being the mastermind and an unwitting puppet are both true. We have seen this kind of stuff before in anime, as confusing as it is.

Bought TWGOK 6 this week. Ah, the senpai arc. Ah, Hakua x Keima's interactions. It's good to read again these stories.

Edit : 3 weeks of break for TWGOK. Well, let's wait.

I finished chapters ~100 to 185 in one and a half days. That was supposed to be my "revision" for my Electrical engineering test. :lol:

i almost thought TWGOK would end with c190, aka end of Jupiter Sisters Arc.. why?
Spoiler! :
the keimaXchihiro angle was just :D , in a way, a love enough to move keima/God's heart..
anyway, looking forward to the next arc, Heart of Jupiter..
Spoiler! :
Jupiter is supposed to be father to all those goddesses, right? what does that make keima? father figure, or archetype of masculine supreme deity?
