Volume Description[]
Ever since a cosmic phone call brought the literal young goddess Belldandy into college student Keiichi's residence, his personal life has been turned upside-down, sideways, and sometimes even into strange dimensions!
It's a-haunting we will go . . . with the N.I.T. Motor Club, as Urd and Belldandy join them on vacation to a mysterious hotel haunted by the g-g-g-ghost of a lovely young maid who wants to hold Keiichi to a promise his grandfather made long ago! And between Sora's crappy cooking and Skuld's funny feelings, the summer is bound to stay hot!
