Ah! My Goddess (now unflipped and cheaper)

Has anyone picked up the new Ah! My Goddess volume #21 from Dark Horse? It's finally in an unflipped (right to left) format and doesn't cost a ridiculous $15+ per volume.

Apparently they're re-releasing all the old volumes in the new format and continuing the series as fast as they can. At the rate of one volume every two months... well, I'll be an old man when they're done.

I'd fly on Bell's wing anytime... ^_^ Goddess and F/A-22 soaring through the heavens...

I already read the Rind arc and I thought it was one of the better ones. Although when I heard the term "Goddess of the Axe" I somehow imagined a girl in combat fatigues...

It's also cheaper... that counts for a lot.

LOL! I couldnt imagine a goddess in camo! hehehe

Yes! I am so glad its cheaper! I was like, this is ridiculous! Yay for less money ^^

Belldandy would be hot in a flightsuit, though. Hey, her seiyuu did do that 801 TTS Airbats show...

I almost bought all 20 or so volumes on Amazon and by chance I saw the ad for the new one...

Ah! That many chapters! What are we on now, not even 100 yet I know that ><

We're on chapter 135 right now (vol. 21). It's not THAT far off.

I just think that American flightsuits and BDUs look cute on anime females...

So it'd be out... early 2006? They alternate releases of new and old ones every two months.

Wow, I'll be in grad school by the time they reach the old Peorth arc.

The engineering department at school needs a life-sized Skuld for "motivation." Heh.

I already invented the Belldandy Burger. It's a quarter pound of hamburger meat slathered with honey on a kaiser roll.

Sickeningly sweet, like a goddess...

And the thing is... it tastes good!

If nobody else has claimed that title, I'm putting that in my sig!

Heck yeah! Slacking off in the mechanical engineering division? Skuld bomb!

No, you need a giant building shaped like Skuld. Then you can make corny jokes like "Be coold - stay in Skuld".

Or... "Work hard so you don't get Skuld by the competition."

BAD pun.

Well, at least they're good quality releases and not lousy ADV manga.

Umm... except for the fact that Peorth has suddenly turned into a crazy French gal. What happened?!!

Lol, yea I had high expectations for Peorth and was like, NO! Not French ^^''

PostPosted: Wed Aug 17, 2005 10:24 am

I wonder what the French anime community makes of this.







*SPOILER ALERT*





But chibi-Peorth... so cute!


Did I just give away a spoiler? Maybe.... Okay, I should add a warning.

you can spoiler tag it using [spoiler here] (just put spoiler though) spoiler stuff, then [/spoiler]
something like that.... ><
hehe, chibi is cute though ^^
I just cant wait for Rind!

Oh, we have a spoiler tag here? SWEET!

*heavenly music begins to play*

Keiichi actually shows some backbone during the Lind arc. He's finally... not... wimpy!

PostPosted: Wed Aug 17, 2005 9:27 pm

Yay! No more wimpy!
So is it Lind or Rind? I've heard it both ways....

NOT A CHANCE.

Hands off my Belldandy. Only *I* campaigned for her to be in the top 3 in this forvm's Best Bishoujo contest.
