Ah! My Goddess (TV)
In 2005, a new anime TV series of Ah! My Goddess (Aa! Megami-sama) began airing in Japan, again produced by AIC and distributed in the US by Media Blasters. [6] In this version, they have returned to the manga roots of the series, retelling events much closer to their original form. Though there are minor differences, typically based on what is considered unacceptable for television, or to fix plot holes in the manga. While this makes good use of the manga, the anime writers do not limit themselves by events in the manga; some episodes do not mirror any particular plot element in the manga at all. This 1st season consisted of 24 episodes with the 13th episode being a recap episode. The Japanese DVD release contained 2 bonus OAV (OVA) episodes focusing on the aftermath of the first season's finalé.
A second season titled Ah! My Goddess: Everyone Has Wings (Japanese:Aa! Megami-sama: Sorezore no Tsubasa) had picked up the story on April 6, 2006 from where the series left with the first series and concluded at 22 episodes. There is also a novelisation of the second season. TBS has recently announced the addition of 2 bonus OAV (OVA) episodes at the end of the eighth disc, giving Sorezore no Tsubasa a total of 24 episodes.
As of December 2006, it has been announced that ADV Films has licensed the second season for release in the US. This is a change from Media Blasters who did the first season. No voice actors have been announced yet and it is still unknown if ADV will hire the original cast and crew from the first season.
Whether or not the show will have a third season is unknown, however, it is known that director Hiroaki Gohda would like to animate as much of the original manga as possible, making a third season a possibility.
Soundtracks
The seiyu of the series are also professional singers. Either in the form of Goddess Family Club or an Original Soundtrack, the series has led to over a dozen albums.
\"Ah\" or \"Oh\"?
The original Japanese title is \"Aa! Megami-sama!\". The problem of how to translate this phrase has led to a great deal of debate and flamewars amongst English-speaking anime fans during the early 1990s. The US-anime import company AnimEigo obtained the OVA rights and entitled them: \"Oh My Goddess!\". Those who objected felt that the title should be \"Ah! My Goddess\". References to \"Oh my god\" and \"Oh my goddess\" in a number of songs (such as Hottokenai No Sa, Megami-sama tto Oyoubi) only fueled further debate.
Series creator Fujishima was ultimately consulted. His initial reaction was to agree with the \"Ah\" camp. After the English phrase \"Oh my God\" was explained to him, he decided that \"Oh\" would be closer to what he was trying to convey. Yet, when a Japanese fan later pointed out to Fujishima that the Japanese merchandise uses \"Ah\", Fujishima said that it would be better to keep things consistent.
Oh My Goddess! is the official English title for the manga, which is published by Dark Horse Comics; AnimeEigo later also used Oh My Goddess!. The bilingual release, which was released by Kodansha, uses Ah! My Goddess. Pioneer chose to use Ah! My Goddess in their North American release of the movie; this was possibly due not to any aesthetic considerations, but rather because AnimEigo uses the title Oh My Goddess!. |
