Yay! I've got shivers :)

Definitely one of ma fav eps.

And 'bout this "I love you" thing. Don't really know Japanese, but what they've both been saying up till episode was like "suki" - rather like love between friends. And Belldandy just said "aishiteru" - like love between lovers :D

Aww, too bad that Peorth went back, I hope we see more of her. Real sweet episode, and I'm pretty sure that the love she said just now was the more intimate love, rather than what was said before between friends.

A more intimate 'I love you,' in words maybe...but I just don't see it in their characters. I can see what it means to say it in that way--but they don't seem to act like lovers. I'm a little relieved to see Peorth go, she would have just caused more trouble, as she already had.

rofl. I lol every time skuld succeeds to appear every time keiichi is in a situation that would otherwise make him look lecherous.

heh, so belldandy finally said it. hopefully they will be more intimate with each other from now on.
And as for peorth, she was annoying, but she added drama to the episodes. hope to see her again.

I knew I wasn't going down the right path when liking Peorth. She was lovely indeed, even though I hated her hairstyle and yeah.

I didn't enjoy this one that much, Keiichi is really starting to annoy me now and the plot seems to be going round in circles. I understand the difference between "suki" and "aishteru" but I don't really see Belldandy and Keiichi as having that much of a relationship.

the thing that only interests me in this episode is when skuld never fails to caught keichi in a situation that would misunderstand into something ecchi, and her reaction when her mangas was stolen,,hahaha.. dobon was gone :P

Okay so I've been watching the english dub and was kinda wondering what this was supposed to mean since she's said "I love you" before... until I read here that it was different in Japanese. One of those times where dubbing fails.

Ah and yes, Keiichi annoyed me in this episode too.. Seemed way to dragged out and Urd basically hit on the head... He has no backbone.

Yeah...Keiichi's been like that since ep one lol. He's at least been getting better about it though...I don't think we'd have much of a series if he were a stud anyways xD
I'm glad Peorth made an appearance, hopefully she added the much needed spark between them. =)

And yeah, about the whole "I love you" thing, think of it like they've been saying "I like you" to each other up to this point rather than "I love you." As dagomir was saying earlier...
suki: like/fondness
aishiteru: love romantically

Reading the posts here have made it make way more sense; I guess for a while it had seemed like Belldandy acted way more like a companion kind of love, not a boyfriend-girlfriend kind of love. Even though Keiichi had expressed that's how he felt, it seemed like she'd always inadvertently said 'i love you too' in a friendly 'i'm doing it cause it's my duty as a goddess' sorta way. It's perhaps why even Keiichi found it hard to pick up on her being jealous of even Peorth. Belldandy seems to have this habit of being this motherly figure to everyone, even Keiichi, so it never seemed like she 'love' loved him. It makes sense in context, cause I watched the dub as well and it makes more sense to realize that this was her true confession. For a while there though I thought that this was primarily about sex, and to an extent it is; a couple in a loving relationship would of course want to consider getting closer both physically and emotionally, and maybe Keiichi felt anxious since he can't seem to get closer to her than he was. Gotta say, very interesting development for them both. I'd like to see where this goes from now

Keiichi is well on his way to making the top 5 most dense MC list....yea he is really starting to irritate me.

And yea I don't get their relationship either, it's barely progressed in this many eps/facepalm. Whats the big deal of her saying "i love you" she's said it plenty of times already.

I really hope there is a decent payoff at the end of the series, but I'm feeling like I know the ending already....

I seriously don't understand what all this fuss is all about.. annoying and forced repetitive drama just doesn't make any sense. "It's true I wished for it somewhere in my heart. That's why the call reached Peorth. But.. It's because I like you, Belldandy"... are you fucking serious? Why call another goddess if you already have one that you love? fucking shit! Either the subbers were trolling or this just don't make an ounce of sense.

Also Peorth only wanted Belldandy to say that she loves Keiichi? what a load of smelly bullshit! Belldandy already said she loves Keiichi quite a few times in the first season. She knows she loves Keiichi and she's staying with him not because of her mission but out of her own free will. I don't understand why they're trying to show that this is the first time that Belldandy's realized about this.. oh God...

Fuck you Keiichii.. now I kinda wish that Belldandy gets ntr'ed away from him. I want to see him suffer and regret his denseness and wimpiness and indecisiveness. Fucking grow a pair already.

Sorry, Kei, but why would you slip up that wish despite making a wish like that before? Anyways, it already felt as if nothing changed because Peorth would've still been on the hunt for him.
The weaknesses of Kei and Bell are starting to irritate me now. They pent everything up and don't address the situation at hand until the last moment when the shit storm happens.
Just wished that they'd be more direct and selfish for each other. Yeah, we are nearly half-way done with season two, but you'd expect them to know their shit after season one. They're practically engaged now.

I guess Peorth granted Keiichi's wish because his ultimate desire was to be with Belldandy in the first place. So Peorth was the calamity for four freaking episodes to get them even closer? I call shenanigans because she obviously wanted the D.
Yeah, that was probably Bell's true confession, but yet again, what they've been doing all this time has been past the point of confession. Eh, I don't care anymore. This whole series has been crazy.

I had forgotten it might have been just an "I love you". Kind of lame with no physical contact but I'd be scared of diddling a goddess in any way as well, especially a level 1 who can do what Belldandy does.

There's a relationship dynamic that's too powerful to ignore here. Belldandy in many ways is a helper to Keichi, Keichi her client. She has immense power and purity, he doesn't want to come off as creepy. Nor would he be able to support children at this stage in his life.

There's such a thing as building for the future, and not focusing all the time on sex. Sex is routine for some, godly for others. Keichi values Belldandy above all, he also values the future. He's trying to build for himself as well as Bell.

I do wonder if her sisters weren't there, what Keichi would really be up to though.

Keichi doesn't want to take advantage, scared to mess up a great thing. Belldandy isn't always sure of her feelings, she does seem to have this psychological thing where she limits herself. They're both scared children sometimes, but I feel like they make the mature decision most of the time.

Peorth is great, she seems mischievous at times, but has the best of intentions and a good heart under her occasional bursts of pomposity.

Guess that was a job well done by Peorth, she isn't a first level goddess for nothing. Seems to me like if she was in Urd's position Keiichi and Belldandy would be married already lol

Peorth is the best goddess in this series. I really liked her from the start and I also agree that a few times she was annoying. But what she did in this episode was very clear to me she was the best.

After reading some of the posts here I guess that was an interesting twist. Initially I didn't get it because in the subs they've been saying they love each other since season 1.

Peorth really made this season spicy and funny. She'll be missed.

Wow, I'm pleasantly surprised by Peorth's course of action. This series fooled me into thinking that characters wouldn't change that much in just one episode(see Sayoko)

Nice job, take all the manga you like from Skuld and come back when you're done with them xD I really hope this wasn't the last time we saw her.
