Does anybody on Religion & Spirituality actually read manga?
If not, I'm curious why. There are SO MANY religious manga out there!
Infact, all of these are religious manga:
Fruits Basket - Chinese Paganism
Angel Sanctuary - Christian
Wish - Christian
Full Metal Alchemist - Pagan/Atheist/Agnostic
Full Moon Wo Sagashite - Shinto
Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne - Christian
Princess Mononoke - Shinto
Tarot Cafe - New Age
Love Witch - Pagan
DN Angel - Christian
Ah! My Goddess! - Pagan
Because I'm the Goddess - Pagan
Faerie's Landing - Pagan
Princess Ai - Christian
Shaman King - Pagan/Buddhist
Yu Yu Hakusho - Shinto/Pagan
Telepathic Wanderers - New Age/Pagan
Zodiac P.I. - New Age
Manga = Japanese Comics
In America, they're in English
Many of us who enjoy manga aren't as obsessed with religion as you seem to be. I have the feeling that most of us just read it or watch the anime, and don't pay that much attention to whatever religious stuff is in the background.
I also think labelling a lot of that stuff as paganistic is a little too judgemental, don't you?
