About the author

Kōsuke Fujishima (藤島康介, born July 7, 1964) is a Japanese manga artist.

Born in Chiba, Japan, he first came to public attention as an editor of Puff magazine, his first job after completing high school. Fujishima originally intended to be a draftsman, but took the editorial role after failing to get a drafting apprenticeship. He later became assistant to manga artist Tatsuya Egawa in the production of the Making Be Free! manga, and in 1986 began his first original manga series You're Under Arrest. His second manga series Oh My Goddess!, also translated as Ah! My Goddess, is extremely popular and has made Fujishima a household name in Japan. In addition, he is also well known as the character designer for several games in the Tales RPG video game series and Sakura Wars.

He is known for his love of automobiles and motorcycles, and several of his series and their characters reflect this, such as in éX-Driver and Oh My Goddess!.

很後知後覺的發現藤島康介最有名的作品是這部
現在藤島晚節不保，這部的純愛顯得挺諷刺XD

本想當看不下英文秘密女警時的墊檔
墊到最後也是很無趣，要不是英文真的很難啃
也不會勉強自己幸運女神看一集是一集
前後花了十個月才把48集看完

劇情感覺很混，說是單元劇也不是
說是連貫的情節也沒有
大體上就繞著螢一喜歡貝兒但說不出口
周邊龍套一直幫忙拉近兩人距離
但到底這些做了啥看完卻一點印象也沒
就這樣渾水摸魚連載了25年

有時甚至畫車比畫妹子還認真
但要看香車配美人我還不如看逮捕令
咦逮捕令也是藤島的名作
所以我說幸運女神到底在紅什麼呢?

I started this series when I was in middle school, and volume count was somewhere in the teens. I completely forgot about it for the years and picked it back up last year when I saw the Hoopla app had all the volumes. This was the happy ending adolescent me wanted all those years ago.

All in all a sweet manga. But I doubt it would've kept me interested in the story if I had read it during the time it was being published. 25 years for 48 volumes is a bit slow for the manga genre. I had a friend in middle school who read this series and once lent me one volume. Knowing her level of patience I wonder if she ever finished the series. Though the artstyle and framework love story might (and the people who I know read this) suggest otherwise this manga is aimed at older teenage boys and men (manifested by some mildly crude jokes and inticrate descriptions of the main character's motorcycling hobby).

Finally, last number for an epic and full emotions manga.
Having it read fragmented, it is not easy to appreciate it fully. I got the best of it when reading the last 8 volumes sequentially - it was also, probably, the part that needed to be read all at once.
I have lost myself during the years in details and characters and events. However, the main plot is quite clear and interesting.
The story is very original and definitely inspired by the nordic mithology, but mixed with a nice touch of engineering. It is clear that the author has made his homework for what concerns the mythology and has a passion for mechanical engineering.
By chance a common human gets the opportunity to live with three goddesses, falling in love with one of them and being loved by her as well.
The characters have all a very specific personality and they do show a lot of strength and development during all the story, also for what concerns how they are drawn.
For being a seinen manga (and hence there are a lot of sexual subtle references there and then) it is full of deep, positive messages that I would expect more in some girl manga.
Drawings also have at times some shojo reminiscence, being very detailed and generally beautiful.
I think this is a perfect manga that can be very much appreciated by both females and males and have a lot of intelligent teachings spread during the whole story.
Who wouldn't want to be as determinated and honest as Keiichi? And who wouldn't want to be as pure and perfect as Belldandy?
Oh, My Goddess! is definitely a cult that everyone who is interested in manga should have in his bookshelf!

This franchise took me ten whole years to complete. Ten years since I first watched the 2005 anime series Ah! My Goddess, I finally complete the original manga. It's amazing how long the series lasted for (from 1988 to 2014!), and the art style definitely improved over time. Although those earlier volumes took me much longer to get through, once I made it into the 10's, I quickly devoured the rest over the last few months.

Keichii and Belldandy are one of the sweetest anime/manga couples of all time, though in some ways I prefer their anime counterparts, if only for nostalgic reasons. Urd remains my favorite girl, er, goddess, and Skuld is definitely more tolerable on page vs on screen lol.

I think the series' greatest strength was in the slice-of-life shenanigans, but some of the longer arcs added a little extra "umph" to what is mostly a very silly, albeit cute story. I'm glad Keichii and Belldandy finally solidified their relationship after literally YEARS of "together but not really" bullshit.

Overall, even though it dragged in some places, the manga satisfied me very much indeed. The ending was beautiful and its definitely a series I need to own (someday....)

Well, it's done. I've officially completely finished my favorite childhood manga series. While the ending sort of leaves it up in the air as to what the future holds for the happy newly weds, this was always a manga that was destined to end with a happy ending. I wish they had done more to expand what happens after their wedding, but all in all, it was a fun run and I have no regrets loving this series. Kosuke Fujishima will always be one of my favorite artists, no matter what. Seeing his art and story telling skills bloom over the course of the series was an absolute pleasure.

All good things must come to an end. After following this series for so nmqny years I have to say its a NEAR perfect ending. I say near perfect because I could have stood for a bit of epilogue to my story. There is none. Still, what does take place is a very satisfying ending to the series and will delight those who went the distance with this series. If you haven't read "Oh My Goddess!" and are a fan of Manga you owe it to yourself to check it out at least once.

A little glib and a little short on emotional closure.

I’m just reading all of these out of order for some reason, but I do like the simple ending. I wouldn’t have minded a few bonus stories, though, for the other goddesses and their futures.

[Kurtis Burkhardt · Rating 3 out of 5]

Pretty great manga, really great art/Character development and pretty good story 😁❤️

[Jon · Rating 3 out of 5]

Ending with a major plot arc just reinforces that I like Goddess better without a plot. At least it addressed something that people have been wondering for decades. All in all, the characters are endearing but not enough to carry it when the plots are almost laughable. It's sweet and a bit charming, and I'm glad I read it as a bit of cultural history, but I'm finished now.

Edición española, último tomo. Creo que todavía me faltan como seis tomos para tenerla entera y poder marcarla como "completa".
