Lmfao anyone see the movie Dogma, this is modern day Buddy Christ! 😂

BuddyChrist

[–] Kaput@lemmy.world 8 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Buddy Jesus would have been an a better choice. The internet fanfiction might have worked for them. I predict they won't be pleased by the fanfiction they're about to get from under age manga.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 7 points 1 hour ago

not...publicly pleased, at any rate...

but amongst themselves? probably swapping their favorites around.

Better than Bloody Christ, for sure.

The Buddy and Bloody of Christ, though… Now, you’ve got a sacrament going.

Missed the chance to call her Vati-chan.

Because an official anime boy mascot would be too apropos?

[–] chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world 15 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Are they running so low on young people to molest they've resulted to youthful dolls?

[–] athairmor@lemmy.world 1 points 34 minutes ago (1 children)

These are useful for luring new victims back to the rectory.

"Hey little girl, would you like to come to my office to read from the old testicles?"

Child Rape, Incorporated really shouldn't, they really really shouldn't, they really really really just should not

[–] xia@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 26 minutes ago

So is it blessed anime, or holy anime?

[–] xia@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 28 minutes ago

How is this NOT the onion...

[–] Jerb322@lemmy.world 1 points 11 minutes ago

All I hear is, the Vatican is after the young crowd. Imagine that....

[–] ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca 2 points 49 minutes ago (1 children)

Her name is Light? Like the guy from Death Note?

[–] athairmor@lemmy.world 1 points 40 minutes ago

What’s Luce for?

[–] metaStatic@kbin.earth 8 points 1 hour ago

Don't let this distract you from the fact that the Pope still doesn't have a moe moe

[–] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 1 points 33 minutes ago

Yuru-kyara but for the pope?

[–] TriflingToad@lemmy.world 11 points 2 hours ago

that's adorable. I like the frog looking one, as my name implies.

[–] Kaput@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

No way they're going to regret that decision....

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 7 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Thank god they didn't go furry with any of their characters.

2034: The Vatican unveils official furry mascot

[–] SomeGuy69@lemmy.world 1 points 28 minutes ago

That's when they finally get me.

[–] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 2 points 1 hour ago

Aslan from the Narnia series is basically a feral fan-made fursona for Jesus

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

Please no. I think I'd have no choice but to firebomb the Vatican.

Edit: Catholic furries are fine, I don't have anything against them so long as they're not trying to proselytize or something; but I don't want the Catholic church anywhere near me.

[–] 2kool4idkwhat@lemdro.id 2 points 1 hour ago

Yeah I feel the same, I was just joking

[–] Grimy@lemmy.world 8 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Target demographic: lolicons

[–] Twinklebreeze@lemmy.world 22 points 1 hour ago

I would say the target demographic is Catholics. That's an important distinction, because it includes shotacons too.

[–] GrymEdm@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 45 minutes ago)

"Ara Ara! Popu-Sensei is so kawaii!" /s Too bad there are so many cases where Catholic anime turns into the darkest type of hentai.

[–] sir_pronoun@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

For young people? What? That doggo there has me rediscovering my faith

[–] sir_pronoun@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

I mean, look, it's wearing a hat
