| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- ...not bad, but i prefer to manga 3/5 |
 |
| Not bad. Though I didn't understand some parts since subs don't exist. |
| Where did u find it?? Torrent for RAW please. |
| I actually enjoyed this quite a bit. Budda sure is a real charmer. I'm glad it's not completely build on sterotypes, but then again, when creating a manga of this kind you alway have to tread carefully in order not to appear blasphemic. Now onto the movie. |
| Pretty damn funny XD I guess you need to have more of an open mind to enjoy this sort of series though. Hopefully more laughs in the next OVA and the movie. |
 "The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." -Friedrich Nietzsche |
| 4/5 It was enjoyable but nothing over the top |
 |
| Excellent. The animation worked perfectly. I loved every moment. |
Sadakiyo said: Excellent. The animation worked perfectly. I loved every moment. This was awesome! I can't wait to see the next episode. There were some seriously hilarious moments! It'd make a great TV anime too. |

| That landlady reminded me too much of my landlord... |
  |
| Well it's an interesting premise if nothing else. I get the feeling I'd enjoy the manga more, probably since the first half felt a bit too long. |
 |
TheAkakuro said: I have the same laptop as Jesus /quote] Never thought I'd hear someone say that. |
| Really digging it. Among all these Moe Slice of Life shows theres always a gem hiding around somewhere. I love the whole paranoid faces. |
| I really like this, the characters, art, setting, plot, they were all interesting. it would be great as a series. |

| I only read up to chapter 12 or so but ahhh, so happy with these OVAs. It seems only natural even a landlady could scare the deities out there. xD There were some seriously amazing lines and misunderstandings in this, lol. I was dying at the cat barbeque bit. But how terrible, to only have the ability of making rye bread, my least favorite kind of loaf! |
 |
| This was actually a lot funnier then I thought it would be when I heard of it. Hope the second ova will be out soon~ |
 |
| This is not what i expected, but this is funny and enjoyable. THAT CAT. |
| This was friggin' hilarious. I think I wanted to pick up the manga a few years back but never did. It was just brilliant. Can't wait for the second OVA. Now I think I'll check out the comic. |
 |
| I like this. I like this alot. In fact; I am in love with this. |
 |
| That was funny :) |
| So Buddha and Jesus are friend, huh? Mahoma and Moises must feel so alone... Anyway bad joke aside, it was good, not THAT funny but it still was. |
 "Can you feel that hybrid rainbow?" |
| Naw. The first half wasn't that much win and the second one, while better, lack the comedic timing the manga has. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| Great but I was expecting more. I was laughing my ass off when I read the manga, but this OVA is trying to be a "feel-good" anime. I wonder, if Shaft produced (and Shinbo directed) this instead of A-1, perhaps it would have the same effect as Arakawa Under the Bridge. |
| I was disappointed they didn't put the fairy floss part in it! That would have been great. Though I still prefer the manga atm. It's true i was also expecting more, but it didn't disappoint, so I'm happy. |
 |
| I definitely enjoyed this. :) but the manga is funnier imo. |
 |
| o_O I enjoyed the first part way more than the other. The second was a bit borring imo. Anyway I was expecting something better :/ I think I'll check out the manga while waiting for second episode (since so many people say that manga is actually funnier) |
| First half was better for me too. It was quite good, the references of Buddha's stories were hilarious! You pretty much need to know about them to enjoy this ;) 4/5 |
| Enjoyable, not that funny but ok. I hope the next one will be better. 4/5 |
 |
| enjoyable! I've never read the manga (I decided to watch this after I saw the manga ranked in weekly chart) so I decided to read it. awww those two are adorable! |
 |
jennybean said: there is only one episode, correct? why does mal say there is two? :s there are two episodes for the ova, the second one has been released along with the manga volume 9, and the subbed version also has been released recently |
|
| Pretty funny concept and nice execution, the only thing that bothers me a bit is the slow pace but it sure was hilarious! Lets see what the second episode has to offer! |
 |
| this is pretty nice so far! very laid back and cute comedy. the voice actors have nice voices and the art isnt that bad. |

| Not bad! Sometimes drags along but it does make me chuckle once in a while. |
| Can someone explain to me the cat thing? |
nehen said: Can you remind me what happened? If it's a cat trying to sacrifice himself to be food, it's a Buddhist reference to when Buddha was a hermit in the mountain, and not to die of starvation a rabbit jumped in his fire (well at least that's what I heard).Can someone explain to me the cat thing? |
 |
| This was a literal OMG! LOL nehen said: The white cat that jumped up the plate that Jesus was holding? I think it was offering itself up as food, since they (the cats) thought Buddha and Jesus are hungry, there was another cat that brought out a matchbox and Jesus said "We would never barbecue a cat!" This was also manifested earlier that day by the neighbor's peach tree when it blossomed and produced fruits while Buddha was passing. Buddha whispered to the tree, "Don't be so concerned. It's not as if I have nothing to eat it."Can someone explain to me the cat thing? |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| I figured Jesus and Buddha would be decidedly over the top but they actually felt real. There was some pretty funny stuff as well, perhaps the cat offering itself to eat on the plate being the funniest moment of the episode. |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| The miracle peach tree and grampa. But the scene that won me over... THAT CAT. <3 |
| Good jokes The miracles hit well |
| Thanks Tumblr. ^-^ |
 |
| OMIGAWD, THIS WAS HILARIOUSSSSSS XDDD |
| The part when the cat jumped on the plate and the other gave them matches was the best. |
 |
| That was a nice episode. A very nice blend of those 2 religions. I'm catholic and those jokes were nothing blasphemous, which is a good thing (since is kinda delicate theme in mu opinion... My little complains is about Jesus' behaivor but is not a big deal). I only had read few thing about buddhism, so was a good opportunity to learn more about it like white snake Naga (and more japan stuff like lol the kamis in each rice xD). Definitely wanna watch the movie when I get the chance. |
| That cat was doing a valiant offer of sacrifice. Will the miracles never cease? I kind of enjoyed the religion jokes :3 Anime always find a way to surprise me~ |
 |
| It's a miracle! Oh wait *miracles.. So many funny things happening, while many people are offended The voice acts made it even better xD |
"Signature removed"   |
| This was actually quite good! And that cat sacrificing himself xD |
