Quiz Ah Megamisama

So, you’re Sega, and you have the license to one of the most attractive pieces of Japanese animation out there, Fujishima Kousuke’s Ah! My Goddess. The tale of how Keichi met and came to live with Belldandy and her team of Goddesses is loved by many due to its lavishly designed characters, its sweeter than sugar heroine, its story which slowly builds into a heart-wrenching romance, and its beautiful animation.
And what does Sega do with this license?

They make a trivia game.

That’s right, a trivia game. A game where those immortals, thrust into average Japanese loser (PS2 owner) Keichi Morisato’s life ask questions, and you, acting on Keichi’s behalf, select a response from a set of three or four possibilities.

Is this a joke? I mean, Magic Knight Rayearth got an awesome little Action-RPG with beautiful 2D graphics and tons of animation. Ah! My Goddess gets a quiz game? In the words of fictitious surgeon Minami Etsushi who accidentally operated on fictitious mother Masaki Teruko’s abdomen due to a mix-up with some X-rays, “Wow.”

Developed by Wow Entertainment, the group behind Sega GT, Giant Gram 2000, World Series Baseball 2K1 and The House of the Dead, Quiz: Ah! Megamisama first appeared in arcades in Naomi form. The game didn’t really set the arcade world on fire (gamers in Japan seem to have enough trouble as is going to the arcades for real games), but that didn’t stop Sega from bringing the game out for Dreamcast in both regular and limited edition forms.

Fans of the series needn’t hesitate in picking the limited edition version up – in fact, every fan MUST own it.
