description Gokudo Overview
It all starts when Gokudou steals a pouch from a fortuneteller, thinking that it contains a gem. Instead, it turns out to be a rock, from which emerges Djinn. The genie grants Gokudou the standard three wishes, but our anti-hero doesn't think heavily about his wishes. Gokudou does get his wishes, though not exactly in the fashion that he expected.
The best thing he gets out of his wishes is Honou no Maken, a magical sword that enables its owner to do fire attacks and it can be summoned from anywhere in the world. Even with an enchanted sword, Gokudou doesn't get much respect. He gets turned into a woman by Djinn, who is also a shapeshifter.
help Gokudo FAQ
How does Gokudo get his genie?
Gokudo steals a pouch from a fortuneteller because he thinks it contains a gem. The pouch instead contains a rock from which a Djinn emerges and offers him three wishes.
What makes Gokudo different from a typical fantasy hero?
He is an anti-hero who makes selfish, impulsive choices instead of carefully using his wishes for noble goals. The comedy comes from the gap between the power of the Djinn and Gokudo's poor judgment.
What is the role of the Djinn in Gokudo?
The Djinn grants Gokudo the standard three wishes after emerging from the rock. Those wishes set the story's fantasy conflicts in motion and repeatedly expose Gokudo's reckless nature.
What kind of anime is Gokudo?
Gokudo is a fantasy comedy built around an opportunistic anti-hero, magical wishes, and parody of adventure conventions. Its tone is closer to irreverent quest comedy than to a serious heroic fantasy.
