Keima is a Capturing God, we all know that. After finishing the manga, I'm
still confused by the title.

Can anyone please enlighten me?

What is the meaning behind the anime title "The World God only Knows"?


I think it's because Keima is the god his own world of dating simulator games
and it is stated that Keima is the god of conquests.

I think it means "the world only god knows". "God only knows" is an old way of
language. So, I infer that since the setting (plot device) of this anime is
about "capturing girls" , it is sort of a world that only Keima (god of
capturing) knows.

I think that the meaning behind this title is that keima(God) has to help
girls escape from their dark states using love and I think it’s telling that
the world god only knows is to spread love to each other

God is referring to him and the world god only knows is referring to the
digital world and how he perceives it, many people know the digital world but
not everyone has his perception on it, or it could be referring to how he sees
the world as a dating simulator game and how he sees getting a girl as a game
and no one else has the same perception as him of the fact that it's a game
you might think that's not a world but world actually means his perception on
it let's make this simpler and say the world the god of dating Sims only knows
cus he's not a god just a dating sim god they were implying that in the title
for sure and world doesn't mean an actual world cus that wouldn't make sense
the world only the god of dating Sims would know is him thinking of capturing
girls as a game but hey that's just a theory a anime theory, in all honesty I
think the only thing they were implying with this title was the world only the
god of dating Sims knows as in a viewpoint that only the god of dating Sims
has yeah I'm pretty sure of this cus when you think of it like the world only
the god of dating Sims knows they don't mean world in a literal sense so it
must mean a viewpoint only the god of dating Sims has what that viewpoint is
idk but this has to be what it means, edit: nvm it was the god of conquests
not dating Sims so this must mean when they say the world god only knows they
must mean the world god of conquests only knows so this must mean the world
inside his head where he sees conquering woman as a dating sim in his head
because The world the god of conquests only knows must be his viewpoint of
conquering woman as a game or his world of only 3d woman as there was a point
where he envisioned himself in one of his dating Sims I could easily be wrong
though this answer took me a lot and I mean a lot of thinking and it felt like
my brain was gonna stop working but I came to a conclusion even if it is wrong
it gives you a plausible scenario where the name could mean these options
which is better then knowing nothing about the name and what it could mean so
a plausible conclusion is better then none at all
