that is Fushigi Yugi
there is a 18-volume manga
it's completely translated: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/fushigi_yuugi/
It wasn't Fushigi Yugi. The art was more, how do I say, "beautiful" for it being an old anime.
I guess the art was kinda like Magic Knight Rayearth
how about these (not sure about the art though):
Harukanaru Toki no Naka de: Hachiyou Shou
Angelique series
Shin Shirayuki-hime Densetsu Prétear
OMG!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH! It was koisuru tenshi angelique kagayaki no ashita, but the one you gave me helped me find it.
I don't remember if there was a manga, but I know it was an anime, but it was about girls who were chosen to become the celestial/goddess/savior of the world, they arrived by either ship or an sky transportation of some-sort. In the end it was left to two girls. There were also either 7 or 10 handsome gods who were to help the chosen one. I think the first season was the choosing of the current goddess with also two girls but one of them turned to be the aid of the chosen girl.
