The God of High School is named after the in-universe tournament of the same name – a martial arts tournament where the winner’s wish is granted, and participants can borrow power from the gods themselves. Although, this debut is explicitly light on lore, mechanics, and the like. All that will presumably be explained later. For now, The God of High School takes time to introduce its characters, their chemistry, and some of sweet, sweet action.
Created by Yongje Park, the series debuted in South Korea on Webtoon back in 2011, and was translated to English beginning in 2014. The series is still ongoing and now includes nearly 500 chapters, and was even made into a mobile game. Now, thanks to Crunchyroll, Webtoon, and Studio MAPPA, it finds itself as one of the first in a new wave of Korean anime.
