As a side note, if this is a terrible, cliched morass of love freak insanity that would make Flonne stare at the singer in and wonder aloud if they're off thier Depakote, then I'm doing my job with this one. 0_o;
Canonically, the creator of this series was very dissatisfied with it creatively until he started shoving plots around the lovely Victora Dult... Venus Warriors being an extended homage/reference to the Pygmalion visual novel.

Long ago I dreamed of
A lost land of ancient beauty -
I dreamed of the palace
Olympus from antiquity -
And there I was told that I
Was to take the role of a goddess pure -
An there I was further told
If not for her no love could long endure -
----
So I will always be,
A goddess of love and beauty,
Fighting to keep our love alive!
For I am the Venus Warrior -
Defender of all innocent and pure!
The Venus Warrior!
Protector of the worlds love, evermore-
For I will always (always) be,
A goddess of love and beauty,
Fighting to keep our love alive!
----
I fight the demons
Brought to life by a broken heart -
Protecting from them
All the romance they'd end 'fore the start,
That the road is long has been shown,
And the path is hard, and my missteps bring me pain -
But I know I'm not alone,
And should I fall, my friends will make sure it's not in vain.
----
So we shall always be,
Goddesses of love and beauty,
Fighting to keep our love alive!
For I am the Venus Warrior! (Ishtar Warrior~)
Defender of all innocent and pure!
The Venus Warrior! (Ishtar Warrior~)
Protector of the worlds love, evermore-
For we will always (always) be,
Goddesses of love and beauty,
Fighting to keep our love alive!
----
I look out at the world and see so many things worth fighting for...
I look out at the world and see the loves that we have saved...
We look out at the world
And we can both see many more
Of the things that make the world
A truly beau-ti-ful place...
----
For we will always (always) be,
Goddesses of love and beauty,
Fighting to keep our love alive!
For it's our destiny...
Making sure heartbreak ceases to be...
Fighting to keep our love alive...
Fighting to keep my heart alive!
The terrible thing about this, really, is that it's got the same melody as the theme song to my never-got-anywhere magical girl show, Nightmare Rouser Faye.
Which, due to TOTAL boredom, I'm going to make my next post.
