The God Of High School Episode 13 [iOS]

9/10. A visually stunning, emotionally brutal, and narratively divisive finale that demands you read the source material. It’s the worst place to stop the anime, but the best place to start the manhwa.

“Who… are you?” If you turned off the episode at the credits, you missed the most important scene. After the theme song, we cut to a dark room. Park Mujin, unharmed, speaks to a shadowy figure. The figure is revealed to be Commissioner O , the leader of the Nox organization. He is disappointed: the First Commandment was merely a “battery” for a greater plan.

When The God of High School (GOH) premiered in July 2020, it was heralded as one of the most visually stunning anime of the year. Crunchyroll’s aggressive marketing, coupled with MAPPA’s signature fluid action choreography, drew millions of viewers into a world where high schoolers wield borrowed power from gods and heroes. For twelve episodes, the series followed a deceptively simple formula: a martial arts tournament to determine the strongest high schooler on Earth.
