Morning Two magazine has recently published a manga booklet portraying holy men Jesus Christ and the Buddha as sentai power rangers, fighting off evil demons in typical religious fashion.
The manga is entitled “Saisei Sentai Holy Men”, and is a side-story of 聖☆おにいさん / Sei☆Onii-san / Saint Young Men, itself a popular gag manga featuring Buddha and Jesus cohabiting in Japan.The booklet is an adjunct to online publication of the title, lest anyone not feel like buying the magazine anymore.
Success brings with it the intriguing possibility of a live action adaptation, though what at times pathetically timid Japanese publishers would do were anyone to object to the work on any grounds whatsoever is not hard to imagine.
There is of course one character who is likely to remain notable by his absence…

What kind of bad guys are they fighting? Who's the dude behind jesus and buddha on the cover?
Oh how I had a good laugh reading comments made by religious fundies here.
Did anyone else suddenly think of "Buddy Christ" ??
omg this is such a disgrace to Christianity...if holy roman empire and their fanatics still existed, they would go nuts over this lol

Having troubles hitting the Y,U,I keys on your keyboard..?
yep damn this god forsaken computer. buddha and jesus are power rangers now why wont they help me!!!!!!!!!
Will Mary Magdalene appear in this manga? If she does, will this be a sort of love triangle between Jesus-MM-Buddha?
reminded me of AVGN's Super Mecha Death Christ II...
in the interview the author was saying that the Prophet will never appear in this manga. it is considered too risky
To visualize god in manga character...
that sounds like our gods been discredited...
It's blasphemously funny. xD
Laugh all you want but you're making fun of the Creator of the Universe.
hi im catolic tooo.... well i aprove so much this , i can see the high grade of cooperation in this too religions , i can see buddism and cristianity are in great peace and cooperation , without the musli......s the grath evil pulpe rapin kids like aish...... a --
cut the comunicationss ... .s.. ..
This is plain blasphemy! How dare you treat the creator of the Universe, Jesus as if He never existed?
Don't mix religions with your hobby.
second for this... = =a
i just cannot laugh and felt.... sad on the same time.
Not FOR they'll just fight the sins!
I found from this series of story that how Jesus and Buddha are lovely and loving.
I think they enjoy this humorous charming story in heaven.
…By the way, did somebody mention where Mohammad is ? You know, what would happen if all the spiritual leaders take their holiday at a time!
THEY'RE GONNA FIGHT FOR OUR SINS!!!
i loled
JESUS CHRIST!!!!!
Go go Holy Rangers!
Go go Holy Rangers!
Go go Holy Rangers! You omnipresent Holy RANGEEEEERRRRSSS!
SUPAJEEBUZ!!!
the prophet is dead, duh.
but if you want to include Islamic influence, you can always have a mob of Talibans holding Godzilla at bay while waiting SUPER GOD REVELATRON to gattai. and that Godzilla is the embodiment of this world's decadence.
... wait, that *is* awesome.
Who's going to be the main villain, Richard Dawkins?
The main villains would be the Bible Humpers from the Bible Belt because Jesus wants Christianity to be more exciting than Fundamentalist.
David Blaine.
i can only imagine how the conservative american public will react to this... -__- gonna go for an all out ban like Rapelay?
looks like an interesting gag anime. wonder how its going to play out.
Curiously, I haven't really seen much protest about Sei Oniisan. Of course, it hasn't exactly been licensed elsewhere, either... and I doubt it will be.
Apparently they read Sinfest.
they look like rapists....
+1
Might the other iconic character in question be Beard-sama?
Soon the catholics will start whining. Really they're so tight assed about everything. (Well probs won't hear about this, doesn't look like best seller material [No offense to HC fans intended,] somebody has to read this...)
On the contrary, it tends to be the darn protestants that are extreme when it comes to Christians. Most of us Catholics are pretty indifferent when it comes to this sort of thing.
I'm Catholic and I think this is actually pretty cool...
:| I'm Catholic and I find this okay. Maybe super die hard Catholics or Christians but not all.
Bugger off. I'm Catholic, and I approve of this series.
Don't confuse the majority with those crazy fundamentalists, they're the otaku of Christianity.
Brother!
This series looks awesome btw. XD
Im with you!!!
COMRADE~!!
Go us the average, only obeying half the laws Catholics
Are you kidding? Even the Bible tells us not to follow stupid laws.
Fundies are the biggest sinners.
I'm not sure what exactly you were trying to convey with this post.
Maybe not? I'm a Catholic and I think this sounds pretty cool.
I'm Roman-Catholic and I find this manga to be okay. No, cool, to be exact.
These materials are rare; for if you portray things such as this, "what you just said" would be the current situation now.
Yep. This is good. Actually, it really got my attention. :D
An Andrew Lloyd Webber reference in the title, I see.
NIPPON JESUS IS FTW!
Jesus Christ Almighty with a Cross staff. This is WOW-SOME~~!!!!!
imba hahaha
Good to see the religious extremists aren't that well-spread around the world as I'm pretty sure that it wouldn't last very long here despite being a free country.
Look again, dear CC.
Would read. Would definitely read.
when will Chuck Norris or Oprah appear in this series?
set to appear in the manga are the following
1. chuck norris
2. mr t
3.oprah
4.satan
5.goku
6.simon from gurren lagann
7.cloud
8.sun wukong
9. sam jackson as l from death note
10. some random chick with a lot of breast
11.obama
12.morgan freeman as light yagami
and 4 chan will help make the anime
this list of supporting characters is fuckin' win
Chuck Norris needs to be in this. As the story goes he was born with a third testicle, but baby Chuck Norris ripped it out and threw it into outer space. His third testicle latter became the celestial body we known as the Jupiter.
Where does Bill Gates come in? it's gotta be somewhere near satan and oprah
And you forget No.13,Samuel L Jackson as "L" :)
wow ppl actualy commented on my nutty ass comment lol
That was total what he had as #9...
I like how ~ 3.oprah (and) 4.satan ~ are soo close together... :)
Ndeed, they are one in the same.. because Oprah is Satan!
Peace! Justice! Love! Friendship! With our powers combined, we form SUPER GOD REVELATRON!
I know I know...
they also the ride the Je-Bus...
oh wait.. Jeebuz looks like an Indian Vampire...
Now that you mention vampire, i can't help but think about Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter, a canadian b-movie about jesus killing vampires..
I watched that. I was expecting win and awesome, but it was fail and awful. And not "so bad it's good" like the fast and the furious etc, it was just fucking shithouse in every way shape and form.
it was awful, but hey, they had a couple of sentences where i seriously started rolling on the floor laughing.
all in all it's a poor movie; excellent idea, too bad it was too poorly made.
This is an absolutely brilliant manga and I cannot wait for scans of this side story to come out. It should be amazing.
Man i bet this manga will make religion look AWESOME. What the hell am i saying? Buddha and Jesus are AWSOME, UBER COOL!!!! :)
It should be perfect.
It will.
GO GO CHRISTIAN RANGERS! MIGHTY RELIGIOUS CHRISTIAN RANGERS!!
Not enough mana? How about some Jesus juice?
*ding*
[9000 mana restored]
It's over 9000?
Eat THAT you stupid blue mage, telling me i need more mana
Heh...
"Do you know the method of mana transfer?"
~ Oh YOU! :)
This is exactly what we need, like the episode of South Park :)
SUPER BEST FRIENDS!
"SUPER FRIENDS"
But does he have a giant robot?
Super Mega Death Christ 2000!
Then they can fuse together to form an even bigger one xD
Buddha:"Jesus, lets combine!"
Jesus :"Roger that comrade lets do it!"
Both :"For Peace, Justice, Love and Friendship, GATTAI!" *Gurren Lagann sytle*
C'mon Jesus ! Now is the time to make them taste the power of your Christian Hyper Kick !! XD
Holy Moe Moe Kyun
You win sir!
"To heaven, and beyond!"
Is this some sort of Christian Magic?
If by "gattai" you mean "fastening yourself to something by means of sharp objects", Jesus can always use his carpenter skills with a crucifix and a couple of nails.
From South Park episode "Super Best Friend" i presumed? :)
Nice! now im interested about this manga...
"HOLY SUPREME ULTIMATE PURIFYING GIGA DRILL BREAKER!" Yes they do(^-^).
JESUS!
BUUDHA!
BY OUR POWERS COMBINED, WE FORM SUPER GOD REVELATRON! EVIL WILL BE PUNISHED!
So, do they pierce the Heavens or Hell?
Imagine them transforming into "Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann" man this gonna be AWESOME!
SHINING FINGER!
Jesus can always use his carpenter skills with a crucifix and a couple of nails.
HAMMER HELL! HAMMER HEAVEN!
Heh, they can call it the Super-God Revelatron.
lOOOL. Its not sentai with without a gaint robot.
Hell, we always knew Jesus and Buddah were GAR.
LOLz! Another creative work from Nippon xD
Creative yes, but not original, South Park did this first and they had the guts to do Muhammad
Let me present to you Saint Seiya.
