Flights of Fancy - Volume 1 (SE)

---

The series picks up right where the last left off, the clean up after the Lord of Terror incident. The flow is nice and shows none of lag found in the mangas and keeps Keiichi and Belldandy's relationship rolling. I for one am very happy to see that the director is moving things along much faster then the manga. Mean their relationship has come along as far in the number of episodes as it had manga.

Though this does mean a considerable trimming of the side stories and romances though given the opening not for long. Also they've reworked certain stories that I really don't know who they are going to fix the damage, the hand in hand story arc is completely wrecked unless they pull off some magic. Now on to something beside story line reorganization commentary. The music is just as wonderful as the first time around and the voice acting in both lanuages are spot on and every character sounds exactly as you imagine the would.

The art is even better then the last time, the elongated faces are gone allowing for the character designsto really shine, i. Though Keiichi still has elephant ears. Everything in the series is fluid and smooth. The series innocent, charming and warm feeling is back in full force with moments and scenes that you can't help but smile fondly at just remembering them. In the end if you're a fan of the franchise or the previous series be certain to pick this one up.

If not go back and pickup the rest of the series and then get back to this one, trust me you want to check out this franchise. It's as if they went back to OVA saw why we love it so much. The gentile love story is back in season 2 and I am happy to see it.

Flights of Fancy, Volume I: Somewhat English Country Dances, with CD

Before I start my review, my recommendation would be to watch the first season. That way you can have a better understanding of the relationships between the characters. I will break down my review by episodes that are on the disc. Episode 1 After the Lord of the Terror that ended season one, Yggdrasil Heavens Computer has lost information on the contracts or wishes that were made And for the first time ever, Keiichi decides to ask out Belldandy out on a date. During the course of the date, Keiichi and Belldandy reveal how much they care for one another.

Episode 2 Its that time of the year were you give presents to the ones you love Christmas and everybody is happy Sayoko starts to realize that while she has the power to make every man on the campus bend to her whim there is one guy that won't-Keiichi. So Sayoko in some twisted logic decides to try and win Keiichi away from Belldandy I won't go into detail, but the way Keiichi disrespects her is beyond funny.

My friend said it best: On the other side of the island Belldandy is knitting a special present for Keiichi. She explains to her sisters Skuld and Urd that the act of knitting symbolizes to her that you are weaving your love into every strand. After some events that lead to BellDandy's getting her gift stolen and Sayoko having a moment of clarity, Keiichi receives the gift. Episode 3 Keiichi is in a bit of a jam. See, since Belldandy gave him a gift and has spent nearly a year with him, he wants to return the favor. Unfortunately, like most guys, the gift he wants to give her costs a lot and he doesn't have enough cash sound familiar fellas?

So being the man that he is, he decides to get a job so he can have the cash to get her gift. What is unique about this episode is Keiichi tells Belldandy that for the next week he will be coming home later then usual and don't wait up.

Flights of Fancy - Volume 1 by Dawn Huffaker

Belldandy in typical fashion says okay. The reasoning behind this is Belldandy trusts him fully and isn't worried about him cheating she explains more , but more worried about him being hurt. Urd overhears about Keiichi plans and decides to pitch in. Surprisingly, she actually acts like a friend to Keiichi and gives some sisterly advice to Belldandy. Near the end, Sayoko makes an appearance and complicates matters for Keiichi.

Episode 4 Keiichi wonders if it is alright to keep the love of the Goddess to himself. While attending Sayoko's Christmas party, Belldandy takes her first sip of coke, and something unexpected happens. Keiichi finds himself in pursuit of a goddess who decides to spread the love of a goddess all about town. All in All, I would say that this series is off to a very good start. But again, if you haven't watched the first season, you might be a tad confused on why a Goddess would be with a human: See all 13 reviews. Most recent customer reviews.

Straight away it is apparent that Huffaker loves nature, her friends, and her family and of course the New Mexico Mountains, as all have inspired her creations. In the first flight entitled Magical Seasons, sixteen poems are offered marking the differences in weather and the emotional effects of the four seasons. Sixteen poems about college, growing up, and relationships with those kept close. Emotional Trips has a personal feel, as she visits basic emotions such joy, anger, and grief.

Huffaker gives thanks to God in the fifth Chapter, Universal Reveries. Huffaker has done a wonderful job formatting her book with intricate designs framing each page and beautiful black and white photography gracing chapter introductions. Her work is observational. She describes the world around her with no wasted words, and without using poetic devices that could suggest multiple interpretations.

No simile or metaphor to cloud her meaning. She delivers her message without irony or symbolism to alter the impact of her words. This is free verse in every sense with mild use of rhyme and even less rhythm. Many of the poems here are simple acronym poetry that took me back to my first exposure to writing poetry in early grade school. Joy Just a time when One person or thing takes You to heaven and back again. Dawn Huffaker has a definite passion for poetry.

One can easily see the joy and comfort that writing brings to her life. I recommend Flights of Fancy to those who enjoy their poetry down-to-earth and to the point. Feb 03, Karen Ingalls rated it it was amazing.

A wonderful book of selected poems that are about nature, life, and spirituality. Some of them caused me to do some thinking and meditating about various issues. Others brought happy memories from childhood to various experiences as an adult You have a definite gift to share deeply in such few words. Thank you for sharing your gift of writing with me.

A wonderful book of poetry on a variety of subjects from nature, friendships, and life in general. It is spiritual, realistic, and thought provoking. I had several poems that resonated with me: Crossroads, Strength, Anticipation, and Universal Reveries were some.
