When Belldandy's goddess sisters, Urd and Skuld, are called away to investigate a problem with the universe's time management, young hero Keiichi is left alone with Belldandy at last!

School Library Journal

Adult/High School-Keiichi's life is complicated once again as two of the goddesses sharing his house are called away on divine business, and the third, his girlfriend Belldandy, is targeted by the titular character, a strange boy who is the cause of a disturbance in time. If allowed to continue, time will stop. This is the 16th volume of the series, and it just gets better with age. The storytelling and the characterization are subtle, with detail building upon detail. Fujishima also has excellent comic timing, especially as the essentially powerless Keiichi does what he can to help the goddess he loves. The art is delicate and beautiful, with imaginative designs and attractive characters.-Susan Salpini, Fairfax County Public Schools, VA Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.
