Story
Belldandy is a Goddess sent by heaven to help those on earth who are deemed "worthy" of having their wishies fulfilled. She is a first class goddess, her sister Urd being a second class goddess, with an unlimited license. She comes to Morisato Keiichi for a reason only deemed as "fate". Although she does tell him that he did pass the assesment and meet the qualifications.
As a child she decended to earth once to be seen and met by Keiichi. He made Belldandy promise to meet him there the next day which, due to her being unlicensed and not allowed to make contracts at the time, caused her to be punished. She was charged to erase Keiichi's memory of the entire encounter. Keiichi willingly volunteers for her to do it realizing how upset she is about the whole ordeal, but promises her that if they meet again he will remember her.
The movie shows that Belldandy was mentored by a God named Celestin. He was very respected in heaven and charged to teach Belldandy as she grew. She is a very naive person, and has a great love for all living things. Celestin teaches her that she can use her love in song to help nature around her. He also finds that Belldandy is very quick to cry. The first time the two of them meet she is crying under a bush because she found a dead bird. She does seem to cry a lot in the movie, mostly due to her childish demeanor and naive ways. She has total trust for everyone around her. This trait lead her to be taken advantage of by Celestin, who used her trust and love for him to attempt to destroy Yggdrasil.
Later, she meets Keiichi who wishes her to stay with him forever. His wish is approved and by a contract with Heaven they are bound together forever. They move into a temple located in the city of Neokmi. As Keiichi is a college student at Nekomi Tech, Belldandy also enrolls there.
After she meets Keiichi her whole outlook changes. She is willing to give anything and everything up just to be with him. Before, she wanted to do whatever she could to make people happy, now her main focus is to make Keiichi happy. Even in the manga when a man attempted to seduce her she said "If I had a choice between saving the world and Keiichi, I'd save Keiichi." She loves him whole heartedly and they were the first people to ever successfully pass through the "Gate of Judgement". She also happens to be very possesive and jealous of Keiichi. This is shown twice in the movie. Once when she was singing Karaoke and Hasegawa was rubbing against Keiichi while she was drunk Belldandy became very upset. She used her powers and broke several glass containers in the Auto Club house. The second time is when she saw Morgan Le Fey kissing Keiichi in the clinic. She became very angry and confronted Keiichi on the whole ordeal, after realizing that it wasn't what she thought she openly admitted that she seems to have a dark side of jealousy within her.
Throughout both the movie and the OVA Belldandy and Keiichi's relationship have come under attack. In the OVA Belldandy was pursued by Aoshima, Belldandy was too naive at the time to realize it at first. Later in the episode Burning Hearts on the Road she agrees to the contract of her joining the Racing Club should Keiichi lose, but assures Aoshima that he won't win because he is not worthy. In the TV series Keiichi is pursued by Sayoko as well, but he does not respond. Although in the OVA in Midsummer Night's Dream Urd gives him a potion to make him fall in love with the first person he sees, unfortunately this is Sayoko. It was Keiichi and Belldandy's love that broke the spell, even though Urd says that there was no cure. In the movie, it seemed as though at first Celestin had romatic feelings towards Belldandy, and Keiichi still stuck by her, even when her memory was erased of the two years they had spent together.
