Keiichi grants Peorth's wish for a date. Of course, the Fourth Goddess has some "extra fun" planned. Too bad the other three goddesses tag along for the ride. As Peorth continues to vie for Keiichi's affections he decides to confront her and ends up having to make a wish: for his desires to be fulfilled, but by who? Meanwhile, Otaki and Tamiya suddenly announce that they have to hide, it seems that someone that scares even them is coming for a visit. That someone is the founder of the Motor Club, Chihiro Fujimi, who challenges Keiichi to a race. Love triangles, the accidental birth of a new Goddess and a communal bath house trip! Just another average day in the life of mild-mannered student Keiichi Morisato and his harem of heavenly delights...

Ah! My Goddess: Flights of Fancy: Season 2 - Part 2 contains episodes 9-16 of the show's second season.

Episode 9, Ah! The Goddesses Go Head to Head on a Date!, sees Peorth attempting to get Keiichi to go on a date with her. However, knowing what she's up to, Keiichi gets Belldandy, Urd and Skuld to tag along. Peorth ends up challenging Belldandy to a level three duel. If Peorth loses she agrees to return to Heaven, and if Belldandy loses she must allow Peorth to take Keiichi out on a date.

Episode 10, Ah! I Just Can't Say It!, and Belldandy plans to organise a late welcome party for Peorth. Keiichi realises why Peorth is on earth... and he accidentally wishes for her to grant his deepest desires.

Episode 11, Ah! Grasp Your Dream With Your Own Hands!, and for some reason Tamiya and Otaki are in a hurry to leave the auto club and... er... hide. Keiichi has no idea what has gotten into his two friends. However when Chihiro Fujimi Tamiya, the founder of the auto club, arrives Keiichi realises why his friends have gone into hiding. Seeing Keiichi's mini bike, Chihiro decides to build her own and challenge him to a race.

Episode 12, Ah! A Goddess's Tears and His Dream!, sees an old boyfriend of Urd's show up on the scene. Troubador is a Plum Blossom spirit who Urd is still mad at for leaving without any explanation. Despite the fact Urd wants nothing more to do with him, Troubador gets it into his head that she is seeing Keiichi, a lowly human, and makes it his business to win back his sweetheart at any cost.

Extras on disc one include an audio commentary on Ah! A Goddess's Tears and His Dream! with Veronica Taylor (Chihro) and Dan Green (Troubador); textless opening and closing titles; and Production Artwork stills gallery.

Episode 13, Ah! Let Those Feelings Awaken!, sees Skuld desperate to learn to ride a bike. She has a bet with Urd as to whether she'll be able to learn in a few days, but after numerous attempts she's starting to give up on the whole idea. A chance meeting in a park with a young boy, Sentaro, spawns a friendship were she helps him tune his bike up for a race and he helps her learn to ride.

Episode 14, Ah! My Darling Cupid!, Skuld's feelings for Sentaro have awakened her powers. While practicing these, Skuld accidentally hatches her angel, Noble Scarlet. However, Skuld's angel appears to have hatched a little too early - she's too small and not very powerful.

Episode 15, Ah! I'm Half Goddess, Half Demon?!, sees Marller return. Her and Urd reminisce about old times, until Marller kidnaps her. Her plan? She has cloned Urd and wants to separate her demon side and place it in the new cloned body.

Episode 16, Ah! Shimmer Without Fear of the Darkness!, Urd escapes Marller and heads back to warn her friends, however, with two Urds on the planet how will they manage to stop the demon one and then reunite both halves back in her original body?

Extras on disc two include and audio commentary, on Ah! I'm Half Goddess, Half Demon?!, with Annice Moriarty (Skuld) and Vibe Jones (Urd); and textless opening and closing credits.

Overall, another good collection of episodes - although the two-part episode (15 & 16) was stretched a little thin.
