Hild isn't a carbon clone, as said below, and that's the great thing. 
Fujishima was able to create a character with "just enough" Urodo in her to 
show the family resemblance. Need to see more scans of profile, closeups, 
and body shots to get a better take on Hild. I'd have to say, however, that 
there's a stronger resemblence between Daughter Urd and Demon Mommie Dearest 
than Sam saw. At least, to me.

She's far more... I

To be honest, she looks like she comes from West Covina or Malibu. A surfer 
chick with a killer tan. Hmmm, why no demon slashes on the forehead. 
Fujishima gave her a Star of David, thus making her a yenta.

HILD: "Urd, you're not married YET? I should die of old age before you think 
of making your mother happy."

URD: "Oy gevalt! Mother, you know what I've always said about living in 
Japan! Too many goyim."

KEIICHI: "Is that the same as "gaijin"?"

URD: "Uh, well, hmmm. Why don't you go run along and make sure Belldandy 
isn't, like, burning the water or something?"

KEIICHI: "Yeah, sure."<Gets up and actually goes to check on Belldandy>

HILD: "Daughter of mine. Tell me exactly what your sister sees in him."

URD: "You know, Mother. I think he's got an in with the Almighty. Other than 
that, I think it's nothing more than infatuation on her part."

HILD: "Speaking of which, I ran into that nice fellow Troubadour yesterday. 
Such a nice boy...."

URD: "That will be all, mother....."

Be Seeing You,

Chris
