The World God Only Knows/Awesome

"Nora: "I wondered what kind of guy managed to extract 9 runaway spirits, but... Doesn't look like he's anything special. You... use [love] to fill the gap of the heart? How dull... Isn't love the darkest emotion. You can't close the gap of a heart with something like that."
 * All of Keima's conquering, often with a good dose of Crowning Moment of Heartwarming.
 * Nora tries to turn Keima's good dream into a complete nightmare. Naturally, Keima doesn't take it very well.
 * This dialogue at the climax of 's arc:

Keima: "The love you know... Is only at that level?""

"Keima: And that is the gist of things."
 * I'm still the Capturing God!"
 * Are we forgetting the shogi match between Keima and Diana?
 * Are we allowed to talk about the anime here? If we are, then everything he did in the last episode of the first season, but especially these lines: . The companion chapter of the manga works as well.
 * In chapter 130, Keima's Genre Savvy-ness makes him concoct a Batman Gambit to capture . He shows the goddess sensor Elsie found, and says he'd give it to ... if he's allowed to grope her boobs. Cue to the chasing scene... which gets interrupted when  gets caught trying to pick up the sensor. Apparently, the sensor's holding bag is booby-trapped so that if anyone but Keima touches it, it will bind the toucher. Keima rightly assumes that if anyone actively tries to recover the sensor, he/she had a big chance of being involved with Vintage, since the sensor is the only way to detect the Goddesses.
 * Keima again, this time chapter 136., and seemingly forgets his usual standards of Genre Savvy-ness, which prompts   to give away a lot of Vintage information, only for   to reveal   been listening in on the ENTIRE THING.


 * And in the next chapter,
 * Chapter 160:
 * Chapter 175:
 * Followed up in the next chapter by an absolute Curb Stomp Battle against them. She's improved.
 * Chapter 187:
