By Kosuke Fujishima<\/strong> (Titan Books) This volume of the classic manga fantasy romance\/comedy of manners finds the mystically afflicted Keiichi still kicking back (as much as is humanly possible) after his semi-domesticated pantheon of goddesses almost destroyed the world. When he accidentally bound the celestial Belldandy to him in a cosmic wrong number incident he knew that there was trouble ahead but he never dreamed that her tag-along sisters were chaos incarnate.<\/p>\n Mischievous Urd believes she now owes him a debt of gratitude and intends to repay it by making him and Belldandy fall properly in love. But in a home filled with meddling deities, and sisters at that, no plan ever works out\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/p>\n Things are further complicated by the demonic possession of Keiichi’s little sister Megumi by the wicked spirit Mara, the introduction of vacuous himbo boy-toy Senbei, the God of Poverty and Disaster, and the appearance of a new student in the Motor Club our hero spends all his time and money in.<\/p>\n Sora Hasegawa is a different kind of threat: she’s smart and pretty, loves machinery and wears glasses! (In Japanese popular literature and modern fiction there’s a sub-cultural icon called a meganekko or glasses-wearing-girl, who is either a nerd or irresistibly cute and often both. If you need more information set your search engines to look, but don’t touch\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6). How can the faithful and long-suffering Belldandy compete with this kind of threat?<\/p>\n Beautifully illustrated, consistently charming, this blend of slapstick, fantasy and comedy-of manners is a perennial favourite and a great joy to read. But for the love of Odin, do not start anywhere but with the first volume, and then you’ll have to get ’em all.<\/p>\n This book is printed in the ‘read-from-back-to-front’ manga format.<\/p>\n English language translation \u00c2\u00a9 2008 Dark Horse Comics, Inc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" By Kosuke Fujishima (Titan Books) ISBN13: 978-1-84576-510-1 This volume of the classic manga fantasy romance\/comedy of manners finds the mystically afflicted Keiichi still kicking back (as much as is humanly possible) after his semi-domesticated pantheon of goddesses almost destroyed the world.
