To make a long story short, the show is about a college guy who karma craps on 24/7, his purity comes through as he is given a wish by a goddess called Belldandy from a hotline designed for those "worthy" and by worthy I mean GOOD, decent people. He wishes for the goddess Belldandy to stay by his side as his girlfriend.

She grants it and the series progresses from there. My point is that show always reminds me how important animation is to my life, and how animated females have inspired me to look towards them whenever I am down. Hell, the shows writing constantly circles back to themes of morals and inner beauty.

There are even these 2 evil, asshole human characters who are vain, sexual, shallow people who constantly try and destroy the purity of the love between the main guy and Belldandy and every time they fail. Like the show says "money, height, and good looks do not EVER measure someone's actual worth".
oh dude...thats a show? I'm familiar with the comic and the movie but i didn't know it was a series...cool. I used to read the comic, i was a huge fan of Belldandy and her older sister. What was her name? Skuld or Urd? I remember their names were supposed to be based off of the three Norns in Norse mythology, and there was a lot of Germanic mythological themes in the comica. It was good. I might need to watch them.

Cass i think you'd love it, if the comic was any indication.
