Huynh Ah! My Goddess = AMG Mercedes?

Ah! My Goddess: The Movie was another nostalgic film for me, due to the fact I kept up with the anime series back in the day. It was very easy for me to follow the storyline and actually had me go back and recall everything I knew from the series.

All of the Yggdrasil workers were woman, from the people on earth to the commander who only answered to the higher ups who were men. This showed a sense that woman made things go around in the world they lived in, but in the end the men were controlling them as superiors. The woman were very capable and  strong, with this there were good and evil. The good side was Belldandy and everyone else, the evil side was pretty much Celestin (a very powerful male) and his accomplice Morgan (the princess of the fairies).
The women mostly had the power in the movie. Celestin had a very strong program and powers of his own, but he still needed to use the powers of Belldandy and Morgan to do anything. This displayed that woman had the strength in the film, but the men had the cunning to manipulate them. The higher ups which all the Yggdrasil workers reported to also had the voices of men, so they don't seem to do much other than command the workers. 
Female spirits and demons of the sort also have the sense of strength, compared to their male counterparts. Morgan would be such a spirit, because she freed Celestian due to her rage of losing her loved one. She also made a large misunderstanding between Keiichi and Belldandy by trying to seduce him for herself. She is not just a pawn, but a co-antagonist with Celestin.
This movie was a decent example of the chapter in the book we needed to read. It had many points exemplified throughout the movie, and made it fairly easy to spot. If a goddess came and asked me what I wished for, I'd wish for a means to buy as many C63 AMG Mercedes as I wanted.
