Manga Messiah

[ServantOfYeshua]

A friend bought my son Manga Messiah and he loved it. What else would you recommend in this genre that is Biblically-based? Thanks!

I haven't read Manga Messiah. Is it any good?

Well, there isn't a huge amount of Christian manga since manga orginates from Japan which Christians are in the minority.

However, I've heard that Serenity is a Christian manga, not sure if it's any good or not.

BTW, you can read reviews of anime and manga at christiananime.com

Yes it is really great actually. Another friend told me about the Manga Bible series and we picked up a couple of those. It's a great series, and it has my 11 year reading these Bible stories ravenously!

Sphinx777 please tell me your joking about Trinity Blood.

ServantOfYeshua 2 things while Trinity Blood does use some Christian imagery and references especialy related to the Catholic church it's not really a christian anime and secondly the show is probably way to violent for 11 year old unles your already letting him play alot of M-rated games and watch horror movies.

 

[Mankin]

Hehe, I find it funny that you recommended Trinity Blood as a Christian anime

Don't get me wrong, it's a good anime but it deals more with vampires than Christianity.

Heck you might as well say Trigun is Christian anime afterall there are 2 preachers in it Nicholas D. Wolfwood and Chapel the Evergreen heck they both even carry a large cross with them where ever they go like the size you execpt to find a church. For those no familar with the series there both assasians and Wolfwood's cross has a built in machine gun, rockect launcher and the sides hold several colt handguns while Evergreen cross has a pair of machine guns.

Also just to be clear I like both Trinity Blood and Trigun and own boths series.

Bingo! I was about to make a thread like this but nevertheless. I say this is one EPIC WIN manga for it's vividity. It is so colorful and so emphatic. I love this.

Serenity is a good one. I've yet to finish all the books. You have to order on some online store like Amazon or something-RealBuzz Studios is having financial problems.

Funny, being a non-religious Seeker, Flying House and Superbook are the SHIZ-NIZZLE. Especially when I was growing up.
