The Otaku HQ released a terrific post today (and not just because I was interviewed for it, hehe). Entitled “Religion in the Anime Community,” blog editor Jordan put together excerpts from three interviews, with Naru (Muslim), Canne (Buddhist and ghost worshipper), and myself (Christian). Jordan does a wonderful job of investigating how our faith affects our viewing of anime (or how it doesn’t), and finishes with a nice conclusion. The post reminded me of the aniblogger testimony series we did here a year ago, in which anibloggers (including Cannes) opened up about their faith. This post approached some of the same topics in a different way.

Did you know of Naru before reading the post?
I follow her blog, but no, I didn’t know she was Muslim.
That was a nice read – Thank you for sharing it!
I’m glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
