For the record, that trick actually does work.

In Ah! My Goddess, there is a running mythology theme. One mythos, specifically.

Match each of Belldandy, Skuld, and Urd with their respective domains. What the domains are is part of the question, too.

The mythos in question is the Norse cosmology, and the sisters are named (roughly) for the three Norns that control fate.

Belldandy, or Verdantha, is responsible for the present, Skuld oversees the future, and Urd (occasionally Erda or Erde) oversees the past.

Then there's Yggdrasil, and a few other things scattered around.

I knew someone would get that pretty fast. Take it!

Oh damn, now I have to come up with a question that involves anime other people have actually seen. Right.


QUESTION:
In Cromartie High, three especially outrageous badasses are introduced at the start of the series in ascending order of no-fucking-way-dude-ness. Name the three badasses (so far as they have names) and what makes them so distinctive, in the order that they're intoduced.

Okay, it's been more than two days with no new Q's or A's, so to get this thread going again, here comes a new question.

This is a relatively EASY one from Azumanga Daioh . . .

During the first summer break in the series, five classmates,

Chiyo Mihama (Chiyo-chan)
Tomo Takino (Tomo)
Koyomi Mizuhara (Yomi)
Ayumu Kasuga (Osaka)
Miss Sakaki (Sakaki-san) **

go to Chiyo-chan's summer house near the beach. Free transportation is provided by two of their instructors, Yukari Tanizaki (Miss Yukari) and Minamo Kurosawa (Nyamo), who are taking their students in their cars.

THE QUESTION: Which students ride w/ Miss Yukari, and what selection method was used?


** I have no idea what Sakaki-san's family name is . . .

Osaka and Chiyo lose at the Rock Scissor Paper game and have to ride in the Yukarimobile. The rest of them has a safe trip with Nyamo.

I really feel sorry for Chiyo-chan. You just KNOW that she's been traumatized for LIFE!!

CORRECT!! Your thread, Osaka!!

Ok: In the first episode of "Here is Greenwood" (Koko wa Greenwood) there's a big bet running, with almost everyone betting some money.
Question: What is this bet about and what was the end result (the winning answer)?

That's correct! Your turn.
