Lol, lectures in my University don't really care whether you're listening or not, just as long you're not interrupting others :D

Anyway, love the part at the beginning, where she chants something in fast forward mode and disappears through the mirror XD

This episode was a bit uncomfortable to watch. Keiichi's conclusion was exactly what I was yelling at him the entire time. Although this is the only episode so far I've disliked and hopefully there wont' be too many more like this one. Also there weren't as many moments that made me laugh, most of those were just in the beginning.

Although I thought the "important phone call about the 'childs' name" was hilarious.

I know we're going to see from here on just how difficult it is for Keiichi to express his emotions. It seemed a little ridiculous how Belldandy couldn't pick up on it, but funny how she tried to suddenly take care of his being 'illness.' Even afterward, I don't know if she quite understood what he was getting at.

heh keiichi's indecisiveness somehow irritated me in this episode.
hopefully his resolution at the end of the ep calmed his doubts a bit.

For some reason I thought, before I started watching this series, that Belldandy was going to be a more mature character than she is. I definitely like her personality as it is though, it's funny how Keiichi completely failed to confess to her because she though he was ill XD

i liked the mature resolution that keiichi made at the end... it really doesnt matter if they have a bf/gf title or not. if they did or didnt, nothing would change in their situation

its good it only took 1 episode to realize that they should just be happy being together, instead of dragging it out in subtext for an entire series

Agreed @restore, no matter if she had accepted hm or declined, they would still be together forever. Really, at that point, you should just make the best of your situation and find what you love in that person if you had to be with them or the forces of God would intervene... Just glad it's all by will and seems like a very good outcome.

It seems Sayoko gave Keiichi some good advice this time and wasn't so much into the trying to steal him over bit, character development for her seems good.

After the basics, now we move on to frivolity. Well, not so! XD
Plot that leads into a new phase, the bond between the protagonists. Lawful show some hesitation, but Kei manages to be irritating as usual. Narration funny, comical beginning less hilarious but not boring in the second half. Drawn very well, the animations are only sufficient.
We discover new things about Belldandy, better than nothing! XD

I like how it goes from romantic comedy to medical drama within seconds.

Also, I didn't realize Noto Mamiko (Sadako) was voicing Mishima.

Keichi,'she's good looking, she's sweet and she's a great cook. What else a guy asked for?'
True enough!

Lol What was Keichii worried about? As he says at the end of the episode, she'll be with him forever! Plus, she goes wherever he goes, so of course she wouldn't reject him if he asked her to go out! XD

The first of the weak episodes in this series. Keiichi trying to get over his awkwardness and have a romantic moment with Belldandy was pretty cringy. I can't say I have a whole lot of love for this episode.

its not about the contract (it doesn't effect free will nor feelings so if she wouldn't love him he could reject him & still be forced to stay there by the wish hes lucky it was her) bell loves him anyway or she would be so okay with it & also a little secret Bell & he meat first time as kids they played together was it movie or ova that raveled it don't remember so Bell is basically hes childhood friend to

but yea my point is same as urs it was stupid of him to worry about it

i know it late response but i do it sometimes :D

Very romcomish episode, wonder if this is one of the first wish-fullfillment anime. Belldandy sure is a perfect wife.

I have heard things about Keiichi trying to confess his feelings for Belldandy a lot in this show or maybe I'm misremembering here? But whatever the case I hope it's not a recurring thing in this show. I don't mind what happened in the episode but I could see why people would be turned off by this. Not entirely sure if Sayoko had some character development here or she's essentially using Keiichi's awkwardness against Belldandy. Either way, I'm currently on the fence when it comes to her character at the moment. Otherwise a good episode.
