Personally, (bordering on heresy) the OAV is the best thing that ever
happened to A!MS. I
am really entertained by the manga, but the Anime was on a much higher
plane in my
Not So Humble Oppinion.  All of the characters are interesting and have
their little
idiosycracies, but to me, Belldandy is the only woman in the seris worth
dreaming
about. The world is full of both Urds and Skulds, minus the goddess
status. I have
only met one woman almost exactly like Belldandy in all my years, and I
have to say
that of the multitudes of women that I have met in my life, she was the
one who most
enchanted me. I've known women like Urd, and girls like Skuld. I don't
have any experience
with Peorth, as I'm not much interrested in anything much beyond the
OAVs though I
read good deal of the manga. When I first encountered it in the 2nd
Manga series, I thought
to myself, I'm not going to buy any more of this, they're ruining OMG.
But, of course I
did, because even bad Belldandy is better than NO Belldandy.
	The point? I could take or leave Urd, Skuld, and anyone else I've met
in the series,
but it would just be nothing without Bell.
