The World Only God Knows - 4 - Nice lil cute episode. Gives more of an idea behind how Keima thinks and such really. I literally thought they were stupid for not trying the most obvious choice for a game involving an artist 12 color parfait....
Well, as Keima said: They won't know which option will be the right one until they try it. The most logical option would be to try every option in order, which is what they did.
Anyhow, I'm more impressed with the Next Episode Preview part though.
Keima: "The number 37 is a prime number, however 111, 222, 333, 444, 555, 666, 777, 888 and 999 are not. Math is beautiful! Therefore game characters created through math must also be beautiful!"
...at high speed. >.>
It doesn't really seem like that big of a deal in English, but in Japanese...well, you'll get what I mean if you listen closely.
For starters,
37 - Sanjuunana
111 - Hyakujuuichi
222 - Nihyakunijuuni
333 - Sanhyakusanjuusan
444 - Shihyakushijuushi or Yonhyakuyonjuuyon
555 - Gohyakugojuugo
666 - Rokkuhyakurokkujuurokku
777 - Nanahyakunanajuunana
888 - Hachihyakuhachijuuhachi
999 - Kyuhyakukyujuukyu
Or rather, that's the proper pronunciation. I think.
