Stained glass/art glass doesn't necessarily mean that the institution is Christian-based as the religion is worshipping someone else. Even mosques have stained glass windows.

I mean yeah some mosques do have stained glass but they don't depict figures. That's a distinctly Christian thing. The art of the stained glass featured in the anime is clearly Christian based. I don't know why we're splitting hairs about this.

The imagery's pretty christian. The doctrine isn't.

My point was more that nuns are a perfectly normal thing in Japanese religion, so it’s not as if Japanese people equate them with some sort of shaman or even a miko. They know all about nuns and what they do.

I wonder if Iris' prayers have some power or if she's just there to basically give the Incarnates their last rites.

Oh and it's a very minor thing but I found it a bit odd that the factory manager was referred to as "factory manager" rather than his name and his wife was "the factory manager's wife". I wonder if the author simply couldn't be bothered to come up with names or if the firefighters intentionally don't use names to detach themselves from the victims, since they basically have to kill them.

Since the ED song is of Iris, she should be the main heroine?

Oh btw, I found a more appropriate title for this anime
Aka no Exorcist

Reminds me of Ao no Exorcist. Might give it a few more episodes before I decide whether to continue watching or not. MC branded a demon even though he wasn't the one who committed the arson.

The nun is the hottest girl in the cast. Amazing her appeal is inversely proportional to her skin exposure. I attribute it to the slight plumpness of her face in the op.

For some reason I feel the nun is into the captain.

Are you sure about that? I'm pretty sure they showed just as much of her skin this episode as they did with the other girl. At least if you include the ED.

Please, she clearly doesn't even lift. No way she's hot.

Just from her regular nun outfit.

You don't need fat or nudity to be hot. She's really cashing in on the appeal of the nun.

I don't need fat either (not that I mind), but what is "nun appeal" you speak of? Only think that come to mind is "corrupt the pure" fetish, but I think that kind appeal is better for ehm... different kind of show.

Maki doesn't have any fat either (she probably has even less all considered), but did you see that body?

I think its the innocence appeal, the "too sacred for this world" part that makes you want to pat and protect them. Like Priestess from Goblin Slayer. The "defile the pure" thing is better suited for, as some would put it, "off-brand anime".

I don't particularly care for romance either way, so it doesn't matter to me. More so when you consider only two of the girls have been introduced when the opening makes it clear more will arrive, igniting the flames of the shipping wars.

I am pretty sure even if you put that into spoiler tag it still against rules. I personally don't care but you might get warning or ban if you don't edit that out.

Honestly I don't understand that concept. Naivety is something that needs to be grow out of, not to be protected. And "purity" is just brand of naivety in most cases as far as I am concerned.

I will be probably unable understand anyway, but why is that popular trait? I genuinely wonder.


PS: GS priestess is especially in need to stop be pandered by gods and grow some balls instead. Leave the GS party and get lead her own (for longer then week anyway). Learn about world, about real adventuring instead just sticking with her saviour.

Purity starts from naivete, but it doesn't always die with it. Maintaining one's purity of heart in spite of the cold, dark world is a kind of strength. For Iris, its a level-headed girl that doesn't get flustered at the mere mention of sexual matters like 90% of heroines.

The gods of GS don't pander anyone and her decision to stay with GS is roof of her inner strength, which has only grown under his tutelage.
