Not only Bell, but Urd. Very odd.

Not only that, but Mara uses magical headphones which Urd can't
remove in time before the music knocks her out. It isn't like she
hears a few notes and keels over. Urd always has time to try
countermeasures before succumbing. That whole plotline was
unbelievable for someone familiar with the manga.

I noticed this right off, as well. Since when do any of the goddesses
wear the same mortal-looking outfit for more than a day? Easy to do,
and a hallmark of the series. As you say, inexcusable.

Some of the anime episodes have improved upon the manga, but overall
I have more reasons to jeer than to cheer.
