just so sweet...

Unlike some of the other volumes, this one is basically one long story. While attempting to make a phone call, Keiichi accidentally calls yet another goddess hotline, adding a fourth goddess to the mix. Peorth, the fourth goddess, is from a rival agency and therefore considers herself in competition with Belldandy and the others. She is determined to give Keiichi his heart's desire, while Keiichi is just as determined to make sure that she won't mess things up. Peorth has decided that the best way to help Keiichi out is to try to get him to have sex with her (it's not as raunchy as it sounds, since she never gets anywhere with him - she just spends a lot of time in skimpy clothes). This volume has to be one of the sweetest Oh My Goddess volumes I have read so far. I love the end of it, it's just excellent. If you've read this series before, and you really like the whole Keiichi/Belldandy almost relationship, you'll love this volume. If you haven't read this series before, it probably helps if you like comedy with a nice dose of romance. There are no character or story explanations, so you may be a bit in the dark, but it seems like it's usually not that hard to figure out what's going on in the Oh My Goddess volumes.

Peorth rocks!

Peorth is my favorite character out of AMG/OMG, and this is the book where she appears! She is sexy, funny, dedicated, and clever. She gets under Keiichi's skin without meaning too, which is even funnier! And to find out what her grudge is really about...Anyway, read this book! In fact, read the whole Oh! My Goddess! series if you haven't already! You won't regret it!

Goddessess up the Yin/Yang!

Keiichi Morisato was trying to dial out for food one night, when he got the wrong number, and instead contacted the Goddess Relief Hotline. He jokingly wished that beautiful goddess Belldandy would be with him always. As a consequence of that wish, he now lives with Belldandy, her half-demon older sister Urd, and her mechanically inclined and overprotective younger sister Skuld. He's coping. Sort of.So what are the odds of someone making the same mistake twice? Whatever they are, Keiichi beats them when he manages to dial up Peorth, a beautiful goddess who happens to know what Keiichi's secret desires are, and wants to grant him his fantasy. Peorth will stop at nothing to get Keiichi to admit his desire for intimacy. Showing up nude in the bath to scrub his back? Getting into his bed in black lingerie? Wrapping herself over him as a wake up call? Trying to get him to drown so she can perform mouth-to-mouth? She'll do it. Things only get worse when Peorth meddles with Urd's love potions, accidentally creating one that makes ANY woman Keiichi looks at fall in love with him. And wouldn't you know it, his sister Megumi is visiting for the day!Keiichi and Belldandy's love for each other is put through trial after trial, as Peorth attempts not only to seduce Keiichi, but to make Belldandy remember an insult she gave Peorth long ago. This is romantic comedy at its best, with some of the most gorgeous art I've seen in a long time to help tell the story.

ANOTHER????!?! Oh, jeez!

It is said that "every rose has its thorn," (source of quote uncertain), and Peorth is probably the best exemplar of that adage. She becomes a thorn in both Keiichi's and Belldandy's sides.A mix of hilarity and romance, "The Fourth Goddess," is well worth the money.

This is an AWESOME manga! Kosuke Fujishima does it again.

A forth goddess, Peorth, has come to grant Keichii his hearts desire. Keichii doesn't want her there, because she keeps making moves on him, and tries thinking up a wish to get rid of her. "But why are my wishes so lame????" With Peorth's and Belldandy's overlapping contracts, things start to get a little crazy. Peorth tries to give Keichii a love potion, made by Urd, but ultered by Peorth. That goes wrong of course, and what follows is a little weird. Also, is Keichii a lover with Tamiya? Peorth seems to think so and must end this right away. It's beauty and the beast. What has Belldandy done in the past to Peorth that could make Peorth distest her so? Read this book; it's great!
