Jesus Christ on Anime

I haven't seen it, but I know a manga about Jesus and Buddha sharing a flat in Tokyo as young buddies, and I found it pretty fun It's called Saint Young Men, in case you're interested. Japan is mostly an atheist country, so when there's any kind of animation about a religious topic, isn't out of belief, but just as a way to choose an exotic topic.

Japan has done anime based on Bible stories, they were called Superbook and Flying House, so they have done it and have been respectful toward the source material. To them Christianity is just another religion, but they have been respectful toward it but they don't have to believe it to make an anime about it.

i have seen it in print form. i think its a great idea, what ever works to reach the unreached with the Gospel of Christ.

As long as it will be presented in a decent manner and nothing against the image of God, then that would be fine. We should respect the image of God in every way we can like we respect our self and other. Have a nice day!

that seems interesting, I will watch that too if that will be available here in the philippines. thats a great idea to make it anime it's easier to reach the kids viewer, good for them to learn about Jesus that way surely will not make them bored.

I am a really big fan of anime i have joined many forums and such stuffs sites like MAL but i haven't seen it

I haven't seen or heard about this anime. I saw a comic book before which is from the Philippines about Jesus. The drawing is very good, it is like a manga. I'm proud that Filipinos made this comic book.

I don't know how the Japanese producers will treat this anime, Jesus style since Japan isn't exactly a Christian country but adopts and do the popular Christian practices. I just hope they don't do something that will irate the Vatican becuase the Japanese will not apologize on what they will depict in this anime. I think this anime will somehow brush the wrong way with some conservative Roman Catholics. The Japanese are bound to change something becuase it won't be marketable if they sell it the same way the Bible depicts it. I am interested in seeing this anime but I hope that both sides and parties know what exactly they are doing.

I have never seen it and would be a bit interesting if it is televised internationally. I hope that it does not force religion too much. There are seemingly off tales that make wonderful animations. Liberty Kids was about the founding of the USA and was quite entertaining. Also there is a manga names Mein Kampf

If the purpose of this Jesus Christ anime is to propagate christianity for a cause, it is still wrong. I think the makers of this anime should respect the belief of one's religion. It is not just a question of games to increase sale but it is more on the awareness and sensitivity.
