Synopsis:

Keima Katsuragi, a celebrated figure in online dating simulation communities, prefers the structured world of virtual romance to real-world interactions. His carefully cultivated reputation as "God of Conquest" is challenged when he’s drawn into a supernatural conflict. A mischievous demon named Elsie tasks him with recovering escaped evil spirits now inhabiting the human realm.

The premise hinges on Keima’s ability to 'conquer' the hearts of real girls – a skill he previously employed only in games. Bound to Elsie by a mysterious artifact, Keima must navigate complex emotional landscapes and interpersonal dynamics to track down the lost spirits. The narrative explores themes of connection, perception versus reality, and the blurring lines between virtual and physical experiences, all within a setting that blends modern Japan with fantastical elements. The series presents a character-driven journey centered on personal growth and overcoming preconceived notions about relationships.
