IMHO, being the Norn, she is immortal, and have exists since a very
long time ago.  Age has no meaning to any of them.

Since the clip can be found on the net everywhere, I suspect many have
already watched it.

Anyway, since I watch the OAD and the tankoubon in the same night, I
found the manga more interesting than the OAD.

In the OAD, it is the usual K1 found a way to work around a problem
story, which is nice.  My surprise is that Rind got injured fighting
the bugs, and that those newbie goddesses do not know who Belldandy or
any of the senior goddesses is.

In the tankoubon, the story is becoming significantly more interesting
than previous stories.

Urd and Skuld were tricked to drain nearly all goddess energy from
Belldandy.  Belldandy got drained, got Holybell severed and reverted
to angel egg, and was made to watch K1 lost all his hands and legs.
Nice cliffhanger.

My guess is that K1 will swallow Holybell's egg and attempt to fight
back, and eventually found his lost of limps was an illusion.
