Hello,

That's my first post here, but I already have a complain :

The laws of Eternity is a propaganda movie for a sectarism movement called Happy Science. You can have more information here, for instance :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C5%8Dfuku_no_Kagaku

It seems they try to get more members by reaching anime fandom. During the last european largest anime convention, Japan Expo in Paris, they leave a lot of flyers for their free japanese courses.

Is it OK for animesuki to be a window on the world for such a sectarism movement ?

Please, remove The laws of Eternity from your website.

Thank you.

Please don't. I deeply enjoyed the movie and look forward to getting my hands on their two previous movies if possible, despite being fully aware that they represent a competing religion.

I don't see why propagating religion should be inherently worse than anything else we see in anime. Most of us don't suddenly become homosexual by coming across a yaoi anime, nor do we try casting spells after watching one of the many magic anime. Shaman King did not make me a shamanist, nor did I become a Shinto adherent by watching Kannagi.

You may want to mark it as religious in some way though, since many young westerners have a strong revulsion for religion.

I don't think anyone who watches this movie would actually convert to Happy Science.

So it's pretty much modernized Buddhism.
Movie piqued my interest now.

"The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" has converted more people to a cult.

I don't get what the problem's supposed to be, unless maybe it turns to live-action halfway through?
