What is Love After World Domination?#
Love After World Domination (also known as Koi wa Sekai Seifuku no Ato de) is a unique blend of action, comedy, romance, and science fiction. It takes a playful look at the superhero genre, focusing on the secret relationship between two people who are supposed to be mortal enemies.
The story follows Fudo Aikawa, the red ranger and leader of the heroic force Gelato 5, and Desumi Magahara, the reaper princess of the evil organization Gekko. Despite their opposing roles in the battle for the world, the two are deeply in love. Because neither has ever been in a relationship before, they must navigate the awkwardness of first love while keeping their romance a secret from their respective organizations.
If you enjoy “enemies-to-lovers” tropes mixed with high-energy superhero battles and heartfelt comedy, this is the series for you. You can watch the anime on Prime Video to see their secret dates in action.
Is the Anime Really Finished?#
When committing to a series, the biggest question is often whether the anime provides a complete story. In the case of Love After World Domination, it is an adaptation of a manga series.
While the anime provides a great introduction to the characters and their world, the original source material—the manga—officially ended in October 2022. This means that the complete narrative arc exists. If you find that the anime leaves you wanting more or if you are looking for the definitive conclusion to Fudo and Desumi’s romance, you will likely need to dive into the manga.
You can buy the Love After World Domination manga to see how the story concludes.
