This month's Manga is a Double Issue. Meaning it has twice the number of pages (48) and so is 2 times the
cost! At the end of the story we have some nice little "Adventures of Mini-Urd"(i love these).
Mara returns after re-cooperating and rebuilding her strength after being manhandled
at the hands of the Lord of Terror. She returns with a vengeance to pay back
Belldandy, Urd and Skuld. She then poses poor Megumi and traps the Earth Spirit
living in Megumi's apartment into a cute little (hedgehog?) Doll.
Mara calls forth Senbei, the God of Poverty and Disaster to wreak havoc upon the 3 Goddesses and Keiichi.
The Posessed Megumi and Senbei try many times to cause some grief in Belldandy and Keiichi's
lives but it always seems to come out with a happy ending. Mara very confused as too how her plots of
disaster end up in happiness figures out that it is because of Belldandy. Whenever she is
around, Good Fortune surrounds them. While Keiichi is test driving a Truck, Megumi(Mara) suppresses
Belldandy's power while Senbei causes the front of the Truck to burst in flames. Belldandy
calls on the water spirits to put out the fire but since Mara is suppressing her power she can do nothing.
Belldandy is lost in confusion as to why her magic does nothing until the Earth Spirit tells Belldandy of
Mara's Possesion of Megumi. Belldandy forces Mara out by trying to get her to drink tea made of Lucky Tea Stalks.
The fire is put out and Mara retreats. Mara insults Senbei and Senbei taking it that she doubt his power, decides
to prove his power....on Mara herself....^_^
