So far The God of High School has been a ton of action sequences with bits of character and plot details dispersed in the cracks between them.
So, for The God of High School to suddenly focus less on the tournament and more on the choices and attitudes of the lead characters in a non-ring setting is a gamble.
It shows us that yes, The God of High School is full of kicks and punches and apparently people using Stands to fight, but it’s not a shallow tale.
