Gnaa. Stupid laptop page back/forward key obliterated my message.
I'll try again. I suppose you think I'll completely obliterate this episode because of the events that likely could have happened in the first season, right? No. I found it sweet and I found parallels in a lot of relationships I've personally witnessed. Also, consider that the first season was spent with him just trying to cope with the fact that she was living in his home and how to relate to her. This season is K1 trying to fumble his way into a relationship with her obviously. Slowly but surely K1 is going to have a relationship with her one way or another. There are signs this is finally happening. Ignore the manga since I've not read any of it, I've heard the stories that he kissed her in episode 12 and now it's episode 13 gazillion and he's still terrified of holding her hand, right? We'll forget that for the moment. The reason I'm saying this is something K1 did was pretty darn bold, especially for him. In fact...... I found it shocking, nay astonishing that something K1 did was completely bold and forward and if any of you had not noticed it you should have. Bear with me. Spoiler:
Okay, I'm done. Thanks for bearing with me.

Eh - in the manga, Belldandy is hiding her powers to indulge Keichi (and not using them to be closer to the human Keichi), but she isn't that worried about being found out. She'll tell people point blank that she's a goddess without a problem.

You read my mind. I came here to post about that. He looked so horrible I had to keep looking away from my screen. The animators really need to do something about this. He goes from time to time to looking like a monkey to just really ugly looking. If this doesn't change I might stop watching because it takes me out of the story and is really bothersome. |

I rate the episode as a 7. It would have been lower, but I added a point or two because I had the same reaction as aliensporebomb when I saw the ring presentation. |

The only thing this episode has going for me is Urd in all her onee-sama glory. We see her encouraging and taking care of Keiichi all the way through, and I can't help but get this warm feeling inside and simply admire her for that.
Also, I feel that Sayoko's presence is uneeded here. It just feels like another reason for Keiichi to be placed in some predicament where Belldandy just ends up saving him from falling down again. So yes, I'll be rating this episode a 7—but most of that is due of Urd's contribution alone. The rest, is nothing new. |

I dont think Bell was intentionally lying. Rather it was her own perception.
The sub was released sunday I believe so it was faster than usual. So far Im not liking season 2 as much as season one. Im hoping it gets more exciting. Ep4 doesnt look too promising either. They need more K1+Bell, Sayoko, or an evil antagonist (mara perhaps). Otherwise, they better introduce the new goddesses. If not, its going to get boring fast IMHO. Events that would spice things up: - Kei telling Bell he loves her. I mean a real declaration of love - Kei+Bell smooch. A real one. - Someone discovering Bell/Urd/Skuld goddess secret. Like Sayoko - Mara as a serious antagonist (similar to evil urd) - New Goddesses and the storyline and complications they bring. - More meddling from Sayoko going after kei. Perhaps combined with the knowledge that Bell is a goddess. You can go the romance route with a Bell-Kei-Sayoko love triangle and throw the goddess secret into the fire. It can lead to soap opera-ish stuff like Sayoko threatening to reveal their secret unless Bell backs off, etc etc. The possibilities are endless. |

Ah it was okay, it had it's good moments so I rated it a 7. Still it seemed rather slapped together and the animation was weaker than usual and I'm not just talking about Kei did anyone notice how Belldandy didn't look as good as usual. I really do hope this isn't the norm. There's going to be episodes that aren't as good as they should be, that's to be expected, but hopefully it won't be too often.

Thinking: ultimately, what defense could humanity muster against true goddesses
even if their secret were out? Face it, we'd be roadkill against that kind of power. Anyway, I await the next one because in the aftermath of the ring giving something has to happen. Either with K1+Bel' or reactions by others... When people see that rock on her finger they're going to very quickly put two and two together and it could bring all kinds of mishaps.

It would be more like the celebrity/poparatsi (sp?) relationship. Lets see.... -We need food. Please do a food miracle (ala jesus) -My (insert family member here) is dying. Please save him/her -Please put an end to crime, poverty, war, famine, disease, etc etc Good god man. They'd be hounded to death. Not to mention the people that would come to worship. Some nut says they see the Virgin Mary on a tree and 1000 morons visit the tree. Now multiply that by 5,000,000 fold. Did we forget theyre on a temple to add more validation to it..... |

would be invalidated by such power. People in power, who are used to power will do anything to stay there so that's why I was saying I can imagine a series of governments trying to go up against them. But your ideas are actually correct too - hounded beyond belief. I kind of like the current "people are oblivious to it, mostly" attitude.

If a Goddess appeared, especially one representing a mix of norse beliefs and christian beliefs, all the other religous leaders (hardcore Catholics, Muslims, etc) would freak out and probably try to kill her.
Yes, governments would react to, but before they could do anything you would see all the religous fanatics having a go at it. |
