sethfossils's review against another edition

Very funny and entertaining, especially for someone with some knowledge of Christianity and Buddhism. I rarely see accurate and entertaining takes on Buddhism, in particular, so, as a Buddhist myself, this was a delight. The author's takes on Jesus and the Buddha were clever without deprecating either of these religions. I also appreciated the footnotes at the end of each chapter for those of us reading this in translation to understand the references--especially those specific to Japanese culture. Highly recommend.

Did not finish...I tried SO hard to get into this...still searching for that perfect manga that will get me as hooked as my students are...
ladyfives's review against another edition
What a silly idea for a manga. I revisited this after being hit with nostalgia for the anime/OVA, and it was as light-hearted and strange as I remembered. It's really a manga that doesn't exactly...hit right if you don't know a fair bit about these religions & Japanese culture (dang, did the localisation team have a challenge ahead of them with this one), but I still got enough to get some smiles out of it.

I think I actually liked the anime better for this one, but I am gonna continue on with the series. I still liked it but not as much as I remember loving the anime series.
