If so, or are interested in the like, I think it would be super spiffy to be friends. ^_^ Anybody at all?

I am a Christian and an anime fan.

If you look carefully, I suppose you could see that in Pocky Club...

Heh heh, I don't know what would be worse for the club. People seeing us as a thinly veiled attempt to take over the convention or a thinly veiled missionary outreach group. :roll:

XD haha, I guess that is true. It is fortunate that the Pocky Club is as well received as it is. It's genius!

*fangirl shout* I heart Pocky Club. Thank you for posting, Tom! I had no idea you were a Christian anime fan! Rock on!

My family was raised Mormon and while half of us don't goto church anymore, the other half still does. My brother was sitting in line and he noticed another con-goer was wearing a ring on his finger.. a CHOOSE THE RIGHT ring. Except it was in Japanese or something. So then they used their rings to combine their righteous powers and uh.. well, no, that didn't happen. But it was pretty cool, I thought.

I've seen plenty of those at church.

anime_lover · « **Reply #23 on:** September 15, 2006, 12:12:51 am »

It honestly makes me sad to know that there are people out there who arent christian. I'm a true devoted christian. Its hard for me to grasp the fact that people I love may one day go to hell. Like my bestfriend and a man i loved who died this last january. I never had the chance to teach him but he said he was sorta into it. I'm disappointed in myself.

reppy · « **Reply #24 on:** September 15, 2006, 02:03:01 am »

It's not my intention to get into a religious debate, but I think there's a misconception that anyone that isn't Christian is doing it just because they want to be bad or something. Or that they "choose" not to believe.

Personally, I believe there's something out there. Something that created us, perhaps. But I've looked at all the major religions and instead of enlightenment, I find disappointment. No religion fits what I view is "right" and "just". If I take a religion and change it to fit my views, do I really even believe in that religion anymore?

That's why I don't follow any religion, per se. I try to be kind and respectful to others. If God exists and he condemns me to Hell because I was kind to people but had a hard time "accepting" Jesus as my "savior".. well.. what kind of God is that?

(I happen to think Jesus was a pretty awesome guy. Whether or not he existed or whether or not he's the Savior is up for debate. I just happen to think he was a nice guy. Always helping out the poor. Who'd he hang out with? The self-righteous? The hypocrites? No, he hung out with probably the kinds of people that most Christians would lock up in a minute. And instead of stoning them, he tried to teach them.)

Waffles · « **Reply #25 on:** September 15, 2006, 04:13:48 am »

I don't know If I should bring it up but the waffles is an athiest, now though I am not one the a$$hole athiest that thinks its our duty to tell everyone what we think (if I was, would one of my best friends be doom bunny) I love that people have a system of beliefs.

Delphi · « **Reply #26 on:** September 15, 2006, 12:41:27 pm »

I'm a practicing Mormon, but those who actually hung out with me at the con know I certainly don't have a stick up my bum or the usual misconceptions. I am Mormon, but I'm also myself. And myself likes to play with fire and airsoft guns and occassionally be obnoxious and make silly (read: sometimes obscene) remarks. :mrgreen: A

nd I believe that as long as the person is a good person, they should believe what they want.

I love anime too. Just some (basically all) of the nude scenes I could do without because...well besides religious beliefs, the male anatomy isn't very pretty and I don't want to oggle other women. XD I'm a VERY straight woman, thank you very much!

I'm Jewish, with a history as an eclectic intuitive ritualist. I was, however, honored by Guy to participate in his panel on Christian fans, and am very interested in continuing the dialogues begun so well in his panel.

corpsic beauty · « **Reply #28 on:** September 16, 2006, 11:19:43 pm »

yes, i am christian!!!! and i have had this great idea forever: to make a christian anime. i told a few of my friends this and they absolutly loved it. they told more friends and they are interested too. so, i have a team already! *hehe* but if any of you are interested in that, just let me know!

you see, some of the things that japaneese people put in anime..........well..........i don't quite think is cool.......if ya know what i mean. ok, lets take cutie-honey for example. how come everytime she fights, she SOMEHOW manages to loose her clothes in the prosses?!?! so that's why i'm creating this group!............though we don't have a name yet *sweatdrop* but we're working on it!

Anime physics are completely different than real-world physics. The same world that allows hair to stand on end without any hair product is the same world where fabric tears extremely easily.

I have a friend who thinks all anime is for perverts because it all men watching sailor girls (she also thinks watching sailor moon turned her nephew gay) One day we were supposed to meet at the U of O library after she has a study session and I have anime club in the basement of the library. Later that night she tells me she snuck up to the anime club viewing room and was watching through the window for like 40 minutes thorough two eps of something with fighting sailor girls (Angelic Layer) and ASSUMED we were watching sailor moon.

On a side note a friend was showing me a bunch of Anime he had downloaded and was putting on cd’s. About 3 seconds of La Blue girl was enough for me to say no thanks to that one.

I just realized, although EVERY story I write is action with chicks saving the world there is never any sex. I can’t write for anime!

Geirr · « **Reply #38 on:** June 03, 2007, 12:57:35 pm »

Andie & I are both Roman Catholic Christians.

There is a forum for Christian anime fans at: www.christiananime.net

It's been around for about 6 years. Besides the standard discussions like 'what are you watching now / listening to now,' there are also non-anime topics, such as Bible discussions, prayer/devotional topics, and many threads about 'What did you think of [show X] or [Manga Y]' from a Christian perspective. I think the site is open to anyone regardless of personal faith as long as the participants don't act like flaming trolls.

Check it out & have fun!

Actually you guys are pretty much right on the money except I was born a Roman catholic and baptised as one but I have jewish tendencies (my mom is jewish so technically it would make me aswell since jewish is passed down maternally)

such as I do not like eating pork or some shellfish and I never drink on sabbath

but yeah I was very curious as a teenager and bounced around like... for a while I was buddhist, Sikh, Run of the mill christian, Shintoist and even muslim

now I just go with roman catholic jew
