belldandy is like the girl next door, who knows nothing of life on earth, she learns quickly though.
its a great movie

I really enjoy this series! I passed on it at first, as it looked like it was related to "Ah, My Buddha", a series my friend owns and which I find completely uninteresting. To my surprise, I found myself drawn in to the story. My biggest problem now is finding all the sub-series that relate to this show-I can't get enough! The characters are interesting, the plot is a bit shallow but fun, sometimes even ridiculous. I even like (and bought) the soundtrack!

This show just makes you feel good. It's my wife's favorite anime. Though the slowness of the relationship between Keichi and Beldandy can be frustrating at times, it's all in all a really good series. If you're into sappy happy romance/action anime, give this one a shot.

(Forgive any bad speling) This is by far the best anime I have watched to date and I have see a lot of them. The female lead Belldandy is sweet funny and kind and the male lead reminds meof my self witch really drew me in and got me to like the searies. The comedy is well writen in the story and does not over power it. you can't help but enjoy this searies once you watch it.

Ah! My Goddess is one of those animes you will either love, or completely hate. I own the entire collection, both season 1 and 2. If you can't stand lovey dovey animes, or animes where its just about a developing relationship between the 2 main characters, then I would advise you to stay away. I am a hopeless romantic, so I pretty much fell in love with this series right away. The first season is better than the second for multiple reasons:
First, the first season we are learning all about the characters. The plot is interesting because there isnt a repeative plot like the second season, where it is all about Keiichi telling Belldandy he loves her, which he does in the first season multiple times, but I guess when it gets to the second season, he forgets or something.
Second, the animation is again, done very well. The colors are pretty and there isnt an episode I noticed where the charaters looked kinda rough.
This complete collection include all of the First season, which is episodes 1-26, just in case anyone was wondering.
The voice acting was done well, not the best. Some of the characters I couldnt stand to listen too, but I like Keiichi and Belldandy's voice actors.
I would still advise you to watch the season on Youtube or Hulu before purchasing this product, just because it is such a repeative series, it may bother you and I dont want you to waste any money.
So all in all, this anime receives 5 stars from me because I finally found a romantic anime that I enjoy. Also, the animation is done very well, and most of the voice acting is spot on. I would still advise you to watch it before you buy it, just to make sure it deserves a spot in your anime collection. Just as I said before, the second season is very repeative, so I would recommend season 1 over season 2, but if you like having the entire anime collection, then go for it!

Here I am a grown up man and this crazy little TV show can reduce me to a blubbering mess. Weird, huh? Well, not really, when it comes to sentiment and tugging at the heart-strings, the Japanese don't hold back!

This show was created at a time when the economy was going bad in Japan and the divorce rate was starting to clime. Relationships between men and women were breaking down. I suppose that either consciously or subconsciously, the makers of this Animé created in Belldandy a symbol of love, hope, honour and faithfulness. She's a goddess, of course!

Okay, at the start we meet Keiichi, a university student for whom just about nothing goes right. The seniors give him a hard time, he's a little on the short side and he is spectacularly unsuccessful with girls. In short, he's a bit of a nerd - but an endearing nerd, nonetheless. Then one night, when it is all getting on top of him, he dials for some take-away food, only to mistakenly rings the "Goddess Line", who deliver Belldandy to his room. Belldandy explains to Keiichi that Heaven has seen that the balance in his line has been a little out of kilter and he could do with a wish being granted - only one wish, Belldandy stresses. Keiichi dithers, he suspects the whole thing is a set-up by the seniors to humiliate him, but finally he decides - "I'd like a girl like you to be by my side forever."
Wish granted! And Belldandy herself steps in to fulfil his wish.

Of course, the seniors quickly find out that Keiichi has a woman in the dormitory - a men's only dormitory - and Belldandy and Keiichi are kicked out. Then the fun begins.

The story has many amusing moments, particularly when Belldandy's sisters, Urd and Skuld come down to earth to complicate Keiichi's life further. The story also shows the slowly, but surely, developing love between Belldandy and Keiichi, a love that is so touching because it is born out of the utter devotion of Belldandy, in time, Keiichi.

For me the most memorable and moving moment is when Belldandy tells Keiichi that even though she is free to return to heaven, she will stay anyway "because I love you".


Romance, endearing and well drawn characters, good heart, kindness, humanity, grace and some good laughs too - that's "Ah! My Goddess". Along with Azumanga Daioh, this is my favourite Animé series.

I guess I just didn't read it correctly, but I received 2 box sets... haha. But the quality was really good, and I wouldn't have returned it even if I didn't need it. :P
