another Wiki to Keima's background.
Personality:
Upon first impressions, Keima is an arrogant, distant, self-absorbed video game-loving nerd with a devout obsession for dating simulation games. He ignores everything around him and focuses almost all of his attention into his video games and his virtual girlfriends. If there is one useful thing to say about this otherwise miserable human being is that he is known ironically on the internet as the "Capturing God" and has the most expansive knowledge on how to win the heart of virtually any girl... in games. Sure, his ability to "capture" any girl in a dating simulation game is marvelous but it doesn't thoroughly explain his utter disdain for his common man.
Keima's disinterest in "the real" (his slang for anything based in reality, like people) comes from his devotion to the girls of the video game world. Keima holds video game heroines literally as models of perfection without any critical flaw. He puts nil value on in real life girls because they are not "perfect" like his galge girls, holding critical flaws that makes them undesirable. According to the Capturing God, at least. Keima's idealism for real women are ironically projected onto him from the virtual world. He takes this idealism and turns this rigorous way of thinking into a way of life. He lives very pragmatically, not being interested in the real world for it at times can be unreasonable, unfair or absurd. Though this ideal is certainly extreme, he lives his life to his self-created philosophy rather diligently.
Once Keima sets his mind to something, he will pull out all the stops and practically use whatever means necessary to achieve the goal. He will try to get it done as quickly and efficiently as possible also, and he finds it silly that other people don't think pragmatically like him. If several shortcuts can be taken to get something done as long as it gets done to a high satisfactory level, Keima will be pleased. He places logic and reasoning on a much higher scale than compassion or sympathy, though he himself is quite empathic. His perception is quite frankly uncanny. His knowledge of human behavior and his critical analytical skills makes him an incredible tactician.
Keima is incredibly intelligent and easily score top marks in all of his classes. He's so advanced with the material that he actually plays his PFP in class. At first his teachers were upset but his continual perfect or near perfect scores deterred them from scolding him, plus he wasn't being a particular distraction so the teachers just learned to leave him alone, letting him immerse himself further into his video game world. He parades that he's uninterested in the real, but truthfully he's very shy about admitting his own feelings and with physical affection.
Keima is still a 17 year old boy interested in love (despite his strong prejudices), and he gets nervous if a girl genuinely takes an interest in him. He is shy regarding physical contact, and through the events that leads him to use his Capture God knowledge on real girls around him, he starts to care for their well-being. He utilizes his abilities to "capture" the interest in the heart of a woman with a loose spirit residing within her by filling it with love. His Capture God-induced affections however are more satisfying in that they help the targets come to a constructive resolution with a problem or a dilemma plaguing them, making them a stronger person on the inside. Of course he insists the virtual world and the video game heroines are better, but through the haughty attitude he is a kind soul.
