A new prequel film related to the 2000 OVA Ah! My Goddess: The Movie has been revealed, expanding the supernatural romantic comedy franchise. The story centers on Celestin, a god imprisoned on the moon for betraying the kingdom of Yggdrasil, who is freed by the fairy Morgan Le Fey and travels to Earth to reunite with his former pupil, the goddess Belldandy.
This new entry delves into events preceding the movie, as Celestin's reunion with Belldandy goes awry. He erases her memories of her boyfriend Keiichi and uses her as a catalyst to unleash chaos upon Earth and Yggdrasil, setting the stage for the conflict seen in the original film. AIC handled animation for the previous movie.
The original Ah! My Goddess manga by Kosuke Fujishima launched in 1988 and has spawned multiple anime adaptations, including the original OVA series and a TV anime. This prequel offers fans a deeper look into the divine machinations that shaped the world of Belldandy and Keiichi.
