Ah! My Goddess/Headscratchers: Difference between revisions

** Case in point, Lind's battleaxe is actually a power limiter.

* In the city where the series takes place there has been a gigantic dark wolf (Fenrir), meteors systematically destroying buildings, a giant flying coil of white snakes (Midgard), and a huge red, glowing symbol in the sky during the Lord of Terror incident alone. The city was also wrecked during the incident and Belldandy used her magic to repair it ''right in front of everyone''! Magic regularly flies out from the goddess' temple. Explosions there are also quite common. How can the goddess' possibly be keeping what is going on a secret?

*** Note the original version of this story also involves some [[Techno Babble]] about multidimensional strings, including how the goddesses exist in more than 4.

** According to the manga, after years of student pranks the residents of Nekomi are simply used to everything.

*** That would just be counteracted by the demons who make misery on earth. After all, they can't all be as incompetent as Mara, so there should still be at least a few million people with worse lives than Morisato "Balls of Glass" Keiichi. As for there being no genocides, it's worth noting Keiichi's mental images in the first chapter show he has a very good idea of how would a nuclear genocide look like.

**** Well, we're talking about the balance of Good and Evil/Happyness and Misery here, right? Perhaps the amount of misery on Morisato Keiichi's Earth is as high as the amount of misery on our Earth? Although, we're talking about a Universe where there's a gate which completely separates a couple if they have any doubt in themselves at all, so maybe the amount of misery in AMG's universe is just concentrated elsewhere.

*** The anime at least attempted the explanation that wishes are granted as a means of Karmic correction: Keichii was a good person with a disproportionately sucky life, and therefore was granted a wish to rectify that. That however would have equally [[Unfortunate Implications]] implying that decent people who suffer horrible war crimes, etc, deserve it to a point.

*** Maybe The Almighty got sick of Keiichi not making a move on Belldandy and decided that throwing Peorth at him would help him man up a bit, not that it worked mind you. Keiichi got the wish form Belldandy in the first place for being so damn nice and honest in the first place. He knew Belldandy was in good hands, those hands just won't wander lower than her shoulders unless someone forces them to.
