Now that Keichii and Belldandy have pretty much staked their respective claims on each other hearts, you would think things would start settling down.....NOT!!! Love is in the air and more heavenly bodies are in the future. First up is Guy Otaki(the thin, blond counterpart to the auto club president), who falls for a beautiful first year by the name of Satoko. When he saves her from playboy Aoshima, he asks Kei and Bell for more help for a date. Then Kei gets his first love letter from a young spiritualist by the name of Shiho who thinks that he is surrounded by evil spirits. Bell starts to show a more human side in this one because she has never felt things like loss or jealousy, much to the dismay of a hellhound that Shiho accidentally summoned. Then the body count goes up a notch when, while making a call to Megumi, Keichii once again connects to Heaven to the Earth Support Line and summons Peorth (Pee-orth), the Fourth Goddess. Now Peorth (who dresses like an Al-Bhed from Final Fantasy X) is a direct rival to Belldandy and is going to try to do anything in her power to get Kei's wish, including seducing him. Then a real free for all starts up when all four goddess decide to do nice things for Keichii,which somehow drags in the rest of the group and of course creates even more of a mess (big surprise there :-P)

Once again the goddess squad has not disappointed, with entertaining dialouge, a bit of fan service, and a good supply of explosions. And we have not EVEN gotten to the fact the Hild is right around the corner (for those who do not know.....you have to wait until next time). Until next disc.......

I've collected the manga series and have the first season of Ah(or Oh) My Goddess. The second season seems to start off a bit slower or a little awkward I find. It improved further into the season.

I enjoy this series because it's never really too serious and it's entertaining. I like the characters as well as how they are drawn.

There is no peace in the Morisato household this time, but there's also a whole lot of fun. First, a mysterious stranger sends Keiichi a love note, but is she sincere, or after something else. Then one of the seniors in the auto club does a good deed, and gets a chance at the perfect girlfriend, if he can keep Toshiyuki away from her. And, just when you think Keeichi has earned a break, he gets a phone number wrong, and ends up with another goddess!
Needless to say, there's never a dull moment in this story. Personally though, I wouldn't have it any other way. If you're new to this story, you might be able to start with season 2 #1. If you've followed this story all along, don't you dare miss this one.

First off I love this series it makes a bad day better instantly. some people really don't like the lovey dovey anime that comes out but this one is special If you haven't watched the OVA or the first season of this version go back now and watch it I garentee you'll fall in love with Belldandy. its tough to wait for the next version to come out on this series so I see each episode and even read the manga numorus times before I get to the next ;-)
anyway this is one of the better volumes it shows More character depth. You get to see a side to our beloved bell that we haven't scene before I was a little shocked in the first Volume of the second season when bell yelled and used her magic LOL I don't want to give anything away cause the other reviewers on here have given very good detail of the show already. check it out I garentee you'll enjoy it.

The second is a no brainer. Of course if you hated the first one.. well.. there you go.

That is the central theme of this disc and (gasp! shock!) this includes Belldandy. Before I start my review, my recommendation would be to watch the first disc. That way you can have a better understanding of the relationships between the characters. I will break down my review by episodes that are on the disc. Also, I will try not to give away too much of the story (AKA Spoilers) Now onto the review:

Episode 5:
Otaki (second in command of autoclub) fixes Satoko Yamano scooter much to the dismay of Aoshima (rich-boy). Sparks fly between the two (Otaki and Satoko) and after some convincing from Keiichi and Belldandy, they go to the amusement park on a date. Unfortunately for the two lovebirds, Aoshima owns this place and (you guessed it) when he sees his potential girlfriend (oxymoron if he is a playa) having a good time, he decides to try and ruin the date

Episode 6:
Keiichi for the first time receives a love letter, or so he thinks, from the young exorcist apprentice Shiho Sakakibara from his school. Shiho senses non-human psychic waves coming from Keiichi which she mistakes to evil spirits. Yet she gets too close to Keiichi at times and Belldandy begins to experience the darker side of her emotions. Now up to this point, Belldandy has been suppressing her jealous side/emotion. And if you know the power of being a Goddess (considering Belldandy is very high ranking), lets just say that Shiho is end for a rude awakening and Keiichi realizes that despite Belldandy's Goddess Status, she is still a woman and needs one thing from the man she loves: appreciation.

Episode 7:
Enter a new character, Peorth, who happens to work for the Earth Support Office. This is a direct rival of Goddess Relief Office, who Belldandy works for. Somehow, once again, Keiichi dials up to heaven and gets in contact with Earth Support Office and enter Peorth (I think I speak for all the guys when I say this: I want Keiichi's luck). Peorth basically tells Keiichi the same thing that Belldandy told him, the only trouble is, Keiichi already as what he wants in Belldandy. Trouble being, Peorth isn't hearing that and decides to "force" Keiichi to make a wish...it doesn't happen

Episode 8:
Peorth is overstaying her welcome as she meddles more in Keiichi's life. After Urd talks to Peorth about the relationship between Keiichi and Belldandy, Peorth does a little investigating of her own and decides to see if she can appeal to Keiichi carnal instincts (look up sex) and like any guy, he has them. Thus, Peorth issues a challenge to the other Goddesses to see if they can make Keiichi "desires" come true. Peorth and Belldandy have history (it's hinted at) and from I can tell, it isn't good.

Overall, I would say that this disc shows Belldandy acting more like a human then a goddess in that she does have a darker side to her. Word of advice: even though a woman may be your best friend, she can also be your worst enemy.
