I know you hate Evangelion for mocking Christianity but what are your thoughts on Houseki no Kuni/Land of the Lustrous for using Buddhism as an aesthetic?
Listen, and I know I'm probably gonna get trouble for this (again) but 99% of anime has to be thrown to the trash (the 1% left being educational shows or stuff like that). I stopped watching it around 2016 and my spiritual life improved a lot. You have no idea how this whole culture of escapism (異世界 - isekai) and shoving yourself into material distancing yourself from reality adjust your brain into never feeling satisfied with reality and obsessively seeking more of that material to feel fulfilled. That's why many anime fans (especially the adult ones) are socially inept and barely have any interest beside entertainment.
Second argument: anime culture is filled with paganism and values conflicting to Christian ones (sexual immorality, rivalry, violence, etc ). I googled the anime you quoted and it's all over the place (textbook nephilism agenda).
The Bible tells us to not mingle with darkness. Using it as an "aesthetic" does make any of this different. You won't catch me wearing a hand of Fatima because I think it's pretty. I don't understand why Christians who usually are very vocal against Islam somehow let the Buddhism aesthetic fly like it was any different ; both are false religion and entertaining them represent spiritual adultery. I personally think anti arab racism plays a role since many Americans will have no isssue stanning satanic east Asian cultures while antagonizing Arabs for simply existing (you'll notice many (Christian) rightoid scrotes are huge anime weebs).
The other day I stumbled upon a Christian post stating "beware of culturally accepted sins" and someone was like "especially Christians defending piracy uwu" and I got like "DUDE, REALLY?? of all the sins Christians are routinely engaging into you're chosing......PIRACY??" Mind you, their blog was filled with stupid anime shows and Marvel/super hero satanic trash, so if that wasn't the pot calling the kettle black, I don't know what that was 🥴 When talking about sins, many Christians tend to look outside FIRST, instead of within their own heart. The most dangerous sins, those that will send you to hell, are those you don't think are bad enough for God to notice, and yet He does - because He is God 😭"
A very simple example that happened to me a few weeks ago:
I stopped secular music and have been eagerly trying to seek for Christian music to cheer me up when feeling down. Buuut I back slided and happened to listen to Kyary Pamyu Pamyu newest album. Totally harmless cute poppy music, right? I mean, look at her
Tumblr media
At least that's what I was telling to myself ("dOnt lIsTen tO sEcUlaR mUsic wItH Bad EnErgY/sINfUl LyrIcs but if it's cute and positive it should be okay🤡") .....well, I KID YOU NOT, GOD STRAIGHT UP SENT ME A WARNING IN A DREAM I DID THE VERY SAME DAY.
To put it shortly, I was on my way to work and my workplace was on the top floor of a huge building. So I took the elevator and, first clue, the inscriptions inside the building/elevator were in kana (= letter system used in Japan along kanji). But the shocker is when I entered the elevator, instead of going up....IT WENT DOWN....AND DOWN AND DOWN. And at such fast pace and for so long it's gotten scary because buildings usually don't have more than a few underground floors. ... and it got SO FAST, it reminded me of Disneyland's "Tower of Terrord"jsidjbskskz I LITERALLY FELT LIKE I WAS DESCENDING DOWN TO HELL .
Then the elevator suddenly stopped. The doors opened and we were into a dark, kinda gloomy underground. Totally different from the ground floor above that look like regular building lobby. Suddenly out of the dark, someone started talking to us (I say 'us' because I think there another person with me in the elevator). And the craziest thing is that...while the voice was totally normal and almost cute, I couldn't help but feel a deep, VISCERAL fear grip my bones like I never did before. You know, when your survival instincts are kicking in and override any sense of rationality (because that voice was totally normal and I had objectively no reason to be scared). Something was wrong with whatever was talking to us and was trying to lure us out of the elevator. And this is were I woke up. I obviously didn't need much time to make the correlation between Kyary (sweet harmless voice, kana inscription in the elevator/lobby) AND the feeling of dreadfulness that I felt during the dream. The FALLING inside the elevator is very symbolic of unrepentant souls, refusing to give up their sins, ending up in hell. It was a warning from God of what was going to happen to me if I kept entertaining secular music. Just because it appears cute and alluring doesn't mean it's any less dangerous or deadly for my soul.
So yeah, maybe to some you might think that I'm reaching, but I'm not. That's what happen when you have a close relationship with God and that despite your flaws and wrongdoings your heart is still seeking for truth and repentance. I'm far from being a good Christian but if God loves me enough to warn me off to stop entertaining demonic secular music, that's because He loves us despite our flaws.....but we HAVE to repent and make up. If we don't, and that He doesn't see in our heart the willingness to CHANGE our ways, and will surely not bother trying any longer and let us walk down into the path of eternal damnation, like he did for king Saul.
Sorry for the huge digression and I didn't even plan to talk about this dream, but I felt it was necessary in this times of incredulousness. Most Christians will think I'm crazy for stating this woman's music
Tumblr media
is demonic. But here it is. I know what I've seen, and I know what I felt. I would rather listen to God than any naysayer. That's why I won't shut up about demonic Marvel shows or anime. GOD HAS SHOWN ME what's all about and I can't keep it for myself because I have the spiritual duty of doing so (Ezekiel 3:18).
He who has ears, let him hear.

I havent seen you post that matchups are over but forgive me if they are! I am white and Asian, 21, 5'6" and I still wish to grow, pale with dark wavy hair. I love memes and I am one too. My favorite movie is Spirited Away but I Really love animated movies! I love art and music, I am so soft. I can crank out the tears at any animal movie no hesitation. I tease my family, my friends, my dogs, no one is safe. I love laughing and making jokes. If I have the chance I will nap. I love your blog man💗
*cries in tiny* omg ,, “I love memes and I am one too.” Such wise words I can’t even ,, THIS IS SO BIG BRAIN. Oh man, Spirited Away, definitely such a great music. Thank you so much for your kind words! I hope you enjoy this matchup!  
Tumblr media
Part 1: Jonathan. THE SOFTEST COUPLE. Loves taking naps with you, you lie curled up against him and he has his arm around you. You guys are so cute and sweet it gives Dio cavities. I CAN SEE YOU MAKING FLOWER CROWNS FOR JONATHAN. Since he has been bullied viciously by Dio, your company is his solace.  
Part 2: I see you and Joseph being really silly together, your lives together is always filled with smiles and laughter. You guys do the most stupid things like running around pranking random people. He likes having his arm around you while you guys are watching an animal movie and though he wants to cry too HE KEEPS HIMSELF FROM DOING SO BECAUSE BABE IS CRYING AND I HAVE TO BE STRONG FOR BABE. 
Part 3: Polnareff I think, is a big baby at heart. He loves being spoiled by your softness and brags to the other Stardust Crusaders about the light of his life. When he feels down because of what happened to his sister, you are always there to affirm his feelings. You are his reason to keep on smiling. 
Part 4: Okuyasu also had a lot of sad things happen to him. I see you as someone who perks him up and giving him all the love he needs uwu You guys cry together at sad movies, and you are definitely ride or die with this man.  
Part 5: Doppio, my poor sweet angel racoon baby. Please give him all the love and tenderness in the world, he definitely deserves it! You drag him along to watch animated movies, art galleries. You bring him so much joy in his life. One night while you lie in his lap as you listen to music together and he just ( idk maybe its Diavolo) gets this moment of courage where he leans forward to plant a soft little kiss on your nose and he says he loves you.
