Yes I a hundred percent agree with that. That's also my struggle when it comes to things like K-dramas, books and music.

Ive never understood this logic.@@emilywaldner6453

Yes, I used to be so obsessed by animes that almost every single thought in my mind was about anime . That’s why I decided to quit watching them and I don’t know if I really want to go back again.

uhuh. most of the times too much of something is too much Attachment to anything. Much love, insight, joy, peace, wisdom

@@samuelanguala4826it’s ok to be obsessed with anime, just like it’s ok to be obsessed with any show. It’s not your fault that some of these stories are very well written, so don’t feel guilty for liking well made things, as long as they don’t physically harm you.

I guess everything said about anime can be applied to pretty much any media, that includes video games, books, movies, tv shows, movies, etc.

​@@Battlefield1918yep exactly 😂😂 outer bs video

Are there any anime's that you would recommend to watch as a Christian or is there any that you've watched that were good?

@@angelspen7410highly recommend Vinland saga season 2 was amazing :D

​@mjb50 A silent voice is a good Anime movie to watch. Let me know if you like it

I KNOW RIGHT?? 😆❤️

As a person who thinks All Might is the best character in MHA, I love it.

Bro you stole my comment. I wanted to say that😂😂

Pokémon First Movie Meowth: "We do have a lot in common. The same Earth, the same air, the same sky. Maybe if we started looking at what's the same instead of what's different... well, who knows." If anyone saw that movie as a kid and THAT didn't stick in your head, I dunno what went wrong.

And of course ALL the examples of people lusting in this video are men, never women… because you know, women NEVER lust, OR are triggered by provocative images. It’s always the man that is in the wrong. If you can show me a video that shows the sin of lust being talked to both sides equally, then we’ll talk.

And of course, all the examples of lusting are men. Because we all know, that ONLY men lust, and are the only ones provoked by images. It’s only a man problem. Hell, right off the bat, the VERY first illustration that depicts lust is a man ogling an anime girl. That seems 100% accurate, right? Because women are perfect, and never lust, and can never be tempted to sin. First portray the sin of lust as an issue that affects both men and women equally, then we’ll talk.

​@KevinZ45 The world wants to act as if only men do deal with this, yet it's them that tries to force the rot into our spirits in every way possible. Of course they attack the children first. Nows the time for prayer and fasting 🙏 will ALL supplication. Not a sacrifice for ME, but for God!

thank you so much :)

Demon slayer bro

Dude nice idea let's team up

Was thinking the same thing. Something like a shounen/action anime where Christians don't fight against people, but against powers and principalities and the stronger the walk with Christ, the stronger the spirit of tge Christian and ending with the book of revelations.

One Piece should have a crossover with The Pirates Who Don’t Do Anything from VeggieTales.

@@user-cd5fm3hh9k Well because some shows and songs a bunch of other things aren’t okay for Christian’s to watch/listen or just overall part take in.

W

​@@imcyruskwW indeed

Yes it is the same for me! We grow a sense of discernment as our relationship with Christ grows. The truth is even in non anime media you can’t escape the portrayal of sin. However it as Paul says ”Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable-if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such things.“ ‭‭(Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭8‬ ) It is better for us to surround our selves with things that are good for us. I find that certain genres do not appease me anymore like Harem, or Demons and such. And sometimes it’s the plot that promotes (instead of condemning) sinful things like murder and sexual immorality. Sometimes it’s even single moments in the show. At the end of the day we should listen to the convictions of the Holy Spirit. In our media and in our day to day. Stay away if we can, but most importantly constantly delve into the Word so that the Devil is not able to get a foothold on us through the things we watch

Fanservice has been in anime since the 80's

Heed this warning and not your flesh or this mans video, All anime that is realesed on t.v is wicked as I came to Christ I realized this,their does not seem to be one anime that does not have cursing,pornographic over sexualization,murder,fighting,withcraft,pedophila,false religions,false spiritual practice. The anime art style and manga style in itself is not evil it can be used to glorify God but as of this comment their is no anime out their that does this and does not have the wicked themes I mentioned. Closing point this isn't a conviction this is sin or not sin "David said I will set my eyes before no wicked thing" and the bible says" a little leaven leavens the whole lump" the bible also says "what fellowship does light have with darkness" and "to die to the desires of sin and the flesh" "abstain from the appearance of evil" and lastly "to not gave anything to do with unfruitful works of darkness but expose them. We have to be honest and give up anime the because you know they are all evil if something jn the future comes that leads you closer to God amen if not its evil sinful and a waste of time Godbless love you all.

The sunflower scene makes me weep every single time I watch it or even listen to the soundtrack. It’s in my top 5 anime for sure

The second he started explaining I just knew what anime he was talking about lol

I think he’s actualy talking about the movie as well the movie dives deeper into the depression the ML goes through. It’s more heart wrenching because she doesn’t come back in the movie. In the show they make a miracle. And she lives in the end. Hope that helps but I love all of Clannad (yes I learned I can cry too haha)

Umm I watched it last year and I think I am on the same page with you

Oof. That anime made me cry hard multiple times per episode.

When he was describing the storyline I was like woah is that Clannad?! I say it's impossible not to cry by watching all of Clannad and After Story.

I loved Clannad too.. I was like dang.. it sounds like he's talking about Clannad but I wasn't entirely sure since he didn't mention the other part.

I also teared up while watching him describe it. Another great life changing anime movie is "A Silent Voice". It's about a boy that bullies a deaf girl and then is convicted of cruelty. If you haven't watched it yet, I highly recommend it.

@@commenter5901I've watched a silent voice and honestly didn't cry at it. It's a great movie and leaves a melancholic feeling for me just not something to absolutely bawl to like Clannad

Is Clannad the anime about the father with the daughter..??

Yeah, that's one of my biggest struggles for sure.

Yup when honestly I think if someone isn’t as spiritually guarded and knowledgeable in area or solid in the faith (because a lot of us are still babes in the faith and can be swayed by the slightest influence) should stay away from anime that includes those elements blatantly. I know kids who watched anime and started doing yoga poses and had to nip it in the bud because they didn’t know any better and one of the popular anime which is jjk is not for everybody because of how heavy it deals with bhuddism and the occult. I myself am having a battle of whether or not I want to continue watching it because while the content isn’t having an influence on me I know the Bible also speaks on staying away from all appearance of evil which I’m okay if I have to cut it off. And I do take breaks because I always love stories of obvious good vs evil but the good characters also displaying mercy to those even their enemies like MHA. But this video was on point especially with the idolatry. Social media and anime are a big problem for people because it can easily become an idol and people not realize it

Naruto can fit into many of those categories, there’s clear Hindu inspiration from the whole reincarnation thing and a few elements from Bible stories aswell

Buddhist folkores, philosophy and mystics are driving concepts in famous shonen and seinen anime. Shonen like Dragon ball, Naruto,one piece and bleach are majorly based on buddhism. Aizen myoo is actually a god of wisdom in buddhism (and Hinduism). Berserk and vagabond are also based on Buddhism

Exactly. As I've grown in my faith, there are certain anime I no longer watch. Mainly shows that romanticize demons. I watched Inuyasha when I was younger but it's something I no longer watch now. If I see a show is introducing a demon character and portraying them in a positive light, I stop watching.

Right?? That one was good! 😭❤️

That sounds awesome & kinda like my life. Thanks for the suggestion!

Love that show! Watched it twice cried both times. 😂 I love cats

Oh wow that sounds really cute. Might have to look into it!

I recommend Mob Psycho 100 personally. Everybody has their convictions so so please don't take this as me forcing. I just really recommend it.

🧚🏾‍♀️🧝🏾‍♂️Any recommendations for Bible Story, 'slice of life' & fantasy anime? I'm not really into 'fighting' unless it's a small part of the plot like in Sailor Moon. Definitely no violence. I also love cats. 🐈‍⬛

I would keep in mind that Jesus talked about how coveting another man's wife is already crossing the line. So I would recommend that you focus less on your actions and more on your thoughts. And of course, don't forget to ask if this would be pleasing to God. You might not blaspheme because you watched a show, but how would God feel about you saying you enjoyed a show that blasphemes Him? Being a Christian isn't just following a set of rules like some boring religion. It's a relationship with the creator of the universe. If a show was mocking your best friend, would you still watch it? I don't mean to accuse you of anything. I just think these are good additions to your point. But if you disagree, I would love to who your reasoning encase there is something I have overlooked.

@@viperstriker4728 you are right that it is better for us to avoid thoughts but I’m of the opinion one should feel whatever they’re thinking even if it’s against what the Lord teaches. He understands we are human and that we experience these thoughts and emotions but to me what’s important is acting upon them and not being a master of one’s actions.

@@morsmordre3 From an intellectual stand point I have no problem with contradictory or unbiblical info, let the truth win out. But emotions introduce bias that make it harder to find the truth. So I would say feeling and giving things access to your emotions is the worst thing you could do. "An open mind is like a fortress with its gates unbarred and unguarded."

Right. Anime has caused me to sin but now I avoid those types of animes. I really do love anime, but I cannot wait to be with the Father in heaven :) 3 things i love. God- The Father son and holy spirit. My cats- Anime- Take my cat away and anime and I will still love the lord :)

that anime was critized by lgbt-otakus, to see how good and familty centred the anime is.

Spy x Family is delightful. My husband and I love it because it's just sweet and fun. The only objections I can think of are that the father and mother are a spy and an assassin so there is some violence although nothing too over the top and that the mother's outfit when doing assassinations is a tad more revealing than some people might be comfortable with if there are young children watching. I would recommend it to anyone though to at least give it a try.

My favourite anime❤

It’s literally has ppl getting drunk in it and also some swearing and alot of action and also some lying

Agree 100%. Spy × Family is diamond in the ruff of anime.

I always wanted to create a fantasy story too but now I’m worried I can’t. If I can’t then so be it. But I’d be so happy if I could fulfill this dream of mine. I’m just worried about provoking others to sin through my story. Idk what to do

This is what Paul talks about with unclear issues where something may not be a problem for me but may cause you to stumble. Good on you for recognizing a stumbling block and working past it. Keep doing good things!

I threw out all anime from my life. Because it was all I ever wanted to do. And after I threw it out I realized I had so many hobbies I was neglecting along with my relationship with God. Maybe someday when I'm more mature I could try watching an anime again but for now I'm learning to exercise moderation in everything else I do. Video games with anime art styles don't count to me like Smash bros, or Genshin impact because they don't give me that same idolatry feeling but I've stayed away from Anime. I'm so glad your relationship with God has Strengthened❤️🙂

@@RelicQuadrangle keep up the good work!

Overconsumption of anything isn't healthy. You must've been over consuming so like anything, you need to take a break to clear your mind yes, but to give it all up and blame it on anime, it probably wasn't the best way to go. Give it up for a few days or a week, read the bible, or do something that will relax you. Then come back to it and enjoy anime. Anime isn't a way of life like many would have you believe, it's just a form of entertainment. It's all it is, to entertain.

​@@MyLife-og2krthank you. I needed this. For years I believed "God will tell you to give something up forever and if you slip you're an idolater." Recently I realize this is a rule or law I put on myself when in reality God wants us to enjoy ourselves but just be careful how things affect us. And take breaks if needed. I have OCD so it's always all or nothing!! Always nagging me to prove myself to God. When in reality moderation is an option.

Hitler picked that hard option too 😂😂😂 You can do this with anything ffs so stop with pathetic exscues to justify perverted and pedophilia TV shows 👍🏻

This is true, although it seems to be part of the larger trend of there being more weird sexual stuff being included in all forms of media as time goes on. I've watched a lot of older anime and old media and there seems to be less weird sexuality in old anime/media than in recent anime/media.

While Vinland Saga certainly has a lot of period appropriate violence as it's set in the age of the Vikings, it does not glorify violence and the main character has to go on a journey of letting go of the desire for revenge and learning that violence should only be a last resort for defense. Very Christian in theme and when Christianity shows up in the story, it's generally shown pretty favorably which was a nice surprise.

Yeah vinland saga is incredible and the second season quotes scripture multiple times. I mean it shows in the first season even the religious persecutions Christians faced in the age of the vikings.

Oh really? I might actually decide to watch this show after putting it of.

I feel identified with what you wrote since the confidence that many characters portray is the confidence we need in life, especially during the teen years and early adulthood. Today I like to think that Jesus is waiting for some Christians to take action and do things greater than he did. That is quite a huge task by the way but I believe it possible. Sometimes I think that a second coming won't happen until we realize how powerful we truly are if we transform our animal nature to a more spiritual one. This is what some animes and other great philosophy books teach. I feel you are in the right path, obey when it's appropriate but be a rebel when anyone with "supposedly" divine authority tells you that you are not capable or enough. The real message Jesus wants to give us is that we are capable and enough if we follow a path like his. :)

That was an interesting read. God bless❤

@@Daniel-wj4pd I'm just speaking biblically. It sounds like you have a different view in that we can all come together and fix the world, or that a savior won't come until we all reach a certain level of enlightenment and such. I don't remember what religions or christian sects believe that, probably mormonism. There's certainly a lot of new beliefs that I only dug into this year. I learned bout other big religions, philosophy, and evolution in school...but only found out bout new age, satanism, wiccan this year...and also had a friend who was interested in Buddism which he said has Christ Consciousness, and he wanted to become a god....I didn't think people were actually pursuing Satan's temptation that we can become gods 😅 Also didn't know there's gnosticism or whichever religion that says the God of the bible is a lower god who has trapped us and we can become bigger than him and be freed from him. It really breaks my heart to know that some acknowledge Jesus and biblical stories, but see YHWY as the bad guy and twist his word 😞 Seeing the world through a biblical spiritual lens with the Holy Spirit's guidance, everything just seems demonic at this point. Everyone's been lying to us. All these man-made religions all believe the same thing (do good, reach enlightenment, your salvation depends on you. Complete opposite of what the bible teaches). It all just makes me cling tighter to my bible and my faith cause otherwise, you'll fall into this whole deconstruction movement, or like progressives who say some rules don't apply now etc. As much of a strong, independent female I was growing up, (thankfully I was never a feminist), I thought women could be anything. But now, I agree that women shouldn't even be preachers and such. I've been shedding my tomboyness and embracing my femininity over the years once I saw that men were being better girls than me. What a shame honestly. The world has ignored and warped all of God's design with its agendas. It's doing all it can to erase anything biblical. If you don't believe in it, that's fine. It's good to figure out where your beliefs align. Just before I was saved, I was talking with my best friend who called herself spiritual. She thought she was unique in her beliefs and felt misunderstood. I didn't know demons were real until I started discussing things with her, as she was into tarot readings and interested in psychic readings, but I knew the bible was against that and wanted to warn her. Through research, I realize people actually had those powers but demons were behind it. As I dug more into it all, I realized she was more new age, and all her personal conclusions pretty much aligned with them. She also had a little bit of eastern mysthecism as well as she believed in reincarnation til we learn, and thought everything was god, including herself. It's cause I realized demons and magic were very real that I felt a real need to run back to God. Sin wasn't just against God, but can become a portal for demons. I also started using YHWY when referring to my God, cause when you just say 'God', people assume we're all talking about the same person, even though we don't see him the same nor worship him the same. People like the Buddist friend be trying to correct me about who Jesus is when I'm directly quoting the bible that says he's God, not a man that elevated to god status. I had to tell him we don't believe the same thing so don't try to mix them up. YHWY is very specific about who he is, how he wants to be worshipped, what he desires from us, and how to be saved. If you don't align with that, then you don't really believe in the bible or it's God. I choose to believe in Him and His Word wholeheartedly. I won't deviate thinking I know better. Anime essentially teaches we are gods who know best and we should follow our own hearts, but the bible says 'the heart is deceitful beyond all things and desperately wicked' (Jeremiah 17:9) and that the fear of God is the beginning of all knowledge (Proverbs 9:10) ❤️ I know I'm not God. I'm made his image, but I don't know anything before I was born, and I have no real control in this world. I have free choice, but that's about it. Don't even have free will cause other people can always get in your way. So many things are predestined from birth as our families and countries determine a lot for us. We're so fragile and so limited in power. We don't have any control when it comes to our deaths (unless of course...). We all need God. I'm just saying all this cause I know the whole 'your on the right track' usually implies people think I have yet to be enlightened or come to the knowledge of the truth, but I understand what the bible says and I'm aligning as much as I can to it. I'm not lost or confused at all. I know how this story will end. Other born again believers would feel the same as well. If you think you know more than YHWY or that there's more to life than a future living with him, then you're on some different path, and I'm not interested in exploring that haha. I have peace, hope and joy just waiting for Jesus and the idea of reigning with him one day when he finally takes over the earth and brings peace on his own terms 😄

@@kamekomiyamora I can see you are aware of one of the big themes in anime and jrpgs which is the potential of becoming divine. Evangelion, ergo proxy, Breath of Fire, etc.. I come from a christian upbringing where there are a lot of precious values that do give a sense of control and sound judgement in a world full of mixed messages and ideas of satisfying the flesh completely. Just think of the american lifestyle where every need you have can be satisfied if you pay for it. To some extent, this has corrupted the whole world. We really need to set apart from that if we wish to lead a better lifestyle, no matter your creed. Anyways, after studying psychology and just living life, under a holy spirit driven consciousness ,I discovered that the traditional interpretation of the bible is too narrow if taken 100% as a historical book. We've westernized spiritual truths and live our faiths as if they were the only real connection to God. I think these kind of thoughts are selfish since other religions have deep connections to God as well. Evangelion is a great example of how growing out of a self-imposed shell can help someone become a better version of themselves and relate better to the world around them from the perspective of jewish mysticism. I remember being told as a kid to give Jesus all my hardships and just have faith in the future. Now I understand that I can pray to him however I'm also accountable for my life. A positive change comes if I have the strength of the Spirit within me and can actually make it happen in reality. While having good intentions and faith sounds christian enough, this misses the power we need to develop and apply to our daily lives. This is usually a process and it can take time. Although miracles happen. This is where some S-tier animes expose wonderful lessons of inner growth and how this inner strength is perfect for changing the world outside for the best.

@@Daniel-wj4pd Thanks for proving my point! ☺️ Your comment will be very useful for other Christians who want to follow YHWY seriously but don't think anime (or other worldly mediums) can lead them astray with the subtle message of "you can do what you want and you're full capable on your own...but feel free to call on other gods, spirits, or forces when you need help in fulfilling your own selfish dreams and wishes". That's the mindset I had to flee from. I'm all about God's will now, and I'm doing my best to detach from this world and any lessons it has conditioned me to believe in which goes against what YHWY teaches in his word 🙏 I still love some characters who displayed loving, selfless, and sacrificial traits as they reminded me of Jesus, but I'm very wary of the medium since I know Japan's Christian population is like 1%. As I said, you're free to believe what you want, but I'd rather rest in the promises and future my creator wants for me ❤️ Yall can take your own paths and be confused and lost if you want to, but I believe the bible when it says everything here is futile.

Vinland Saga is beautiful. I really loved the part in the most recent season where Thorfinn heard the Sermon on the Mount being read and was really taking it in.

Trigun also has some pretty powerful but subtle Christ imagery.

Vinland Saga was so inspiring. I was in a bad state emotionally and I was wondering the why's of my life and then I understood the chaos of ife without Christ, life without faith and how people raised with similar beliefs and culture still decimate and destroy one another for fun just floored me. My problems seemed so insignificant and my faith was just growing so much. I don't understand the Devil's advocate stance or what it is to live amongst non-Christians or non-religious people. I have grown up in a bubble and to see the world outside of the bubble really opened up my eyes to the folly the bible talks about. I also became a bit of a history nerd and consumed all historical media on vikings; their rise, fall and conversion to Christianity.

Ooh, I need check this one out!

I've heard it's one of the best mangas ever made, up there with Vagabond and Berserk.

Which anime was that?

@@aliciasam5239 Demon Slayer. I will caution, there is gore and a lot of beheadings.

​@@VoltBolt1984been hesitant to watch this one. Thanks for the info.

I got a 4 Christian mangas and I have red it already it was so beautiful ❤ 😊 but unfortunately after I return to my place I never bring it with me but my dad is taking care of those precious books I really like them

doubt

I tell you..... One thing.. That. anime mocked Jesus.. More then a NC do. 🥲

@@M.NSERVANT what’s an NC? 🤔

@@etherealbladerx8153 Non Christ. Non Christians.

@@M.NSERVANT oh I don’t worry about them 😊

I want to encourage you to definitely pray about it. I know I have been in hard seasons in my life and have started to struggle in my belief, and the best way to combat that is prayer and a good Christian community to be involved in. I will definitely be praying for you and your faith! 😃

I will be praying for you! I had a hard time being motivated to read the Bible for a while there and I found if I kept reading and venturing into the books that caught my eye I was able to learn and feel motivation to keep reading!!! Keep the faith and pray, God is with you and wants you to bring every struggle you face to Him 🙏 ❤

Thanks! I just prayed a few minutes ago, it was just a little chat with God about my concerns. God bless you!

Thanks so much! I appreciate that :)! I have the Bible app and a Bible and this new community I just joined, so I'll try hard for my faith. I'm one of those ppl who's mindset changes every morning, so yeah. But I will discipline my flesh and continue the journey. God bless you!!

@@EEY7512 God bless you! Keep going! It is not your own strength that holds you and I hope that brings you comfort! It's in God the Father's hands and His plan is always good!!!! 🙏❤️

Thou shalt cry thy eyeballs out when watching CLANNAD Just kidding😂I was crying like insane when watching it the first time and actually scared my friend 😂

Yes! I recognized it was Clannad too! Very touching and moving. It's been a while, maybe I should watch it again... 🤔

Many Muslims are good people trying to be righteous. Islam however is a false doctrine. Jesus calls for you.

Accurate? The scriptures given as examples are not believed by Muslims for they are thought the New Testament is corrupt 😊

Me to

Why are you watching this if you're a muslim?

haram

Teah

I loved hxh and haikyuu

I've got 6 words for you: Attack On Titan *and* Death Note.

After thought: Maybe we Christians should gather collectively as creatives and start doing Christian themed anime. The Bible is filled with much to tell.

For example I love watching demons get recked by Light as long as demons are represented as Darkness which they are

There’s actually a Manga of the Bible about Jesus. It’s a great read!

not fully bible themed nor am i christian but i try vinland saga its really good even if you are christian or not

@@sweetsisfat do u also play pokemon? xd
