The Church vs Satan Isekai when?
Honestly they got it pretty right. They could have easily given us one of these abortions.
>>272585115Don't know why they made her a pilgrim, catholics barely do that anymore, should've made her a cute nun, or just straight up hired that artist that makes the cute nuns with the ducks on twitter.
>>272585283catholics pilgrim a lot I have a friend that has visited europe because of that
>>272585115She looks cute and like she hates NTR
>>272585115Why did they name their anime icon after lucifer?
>tokidoki, which translates to “sometimes” in Japanese, is an internationally recognized and iconic lifestyle brand based on the vision of Italian artist Simone Legno
>>272585283Nuns are rarer than pilgrims especially you count in the ones traveling the St. Jacob's Path. Catholics pilgrim all the time churches in Italy are full of them. Not normal tourists, but people who actually kiss the grave of some saint or make sacrificial gifts.

>>272585522You don't know what Lucifer means
>>272585115CatholiCHADS rise upPURGE THE HEATHENS PURGE THE HEATHENS PURGE THE HEATHENS
Repent, anons!
>>272585690No you don't know what Lucifer means
>>272585522I assume Luce is an Italian or Latin word for Light.That's just a guess.Lucifer of course is the one who brings light; Lucifer is also known as the Morningstar.
Based as fuck. Everything should have an anime mascot.
>>272585115She's wearing a rosary like a necklace?My grandma always say not to do that, that rosaries are for praying, not for wearing.

>>272585830They are usually attached to the belt. In this case they probably chose the neck to make it more visible since it's a chibi.
I love LuceIt's a great day to be Catholic
>>272585934you should see doujins
Anime when? I want her to travel through time and meet Padre Pio
>>272585975its a great day to be a catholic who buys plushie idols. you idolator.what is the vatican charging
>>272585975this is literally idolatry
>>272585283>catholics barely do that anymorebruh
stupid catholic onahole with a dildo sounds rad
>>272585115Based
>>272586011>>272586020Why are protestants so obsessed with labelling everything as idolatry? Liking or respecting something or someone doesn't mean venerating them
>already being besmirched with AI artDebased.
>going to church and the food stand right at the entrance is playing Bleach music out loudThis is how you know you are in southamerica.
>>272586011>>272586020Here we go again.
>>272586089Now I want to visit south american church
>>272585283The Santiago de Compostela is massively popular walking pilgrimage. I know tons of people personally who've done it. And there are plenty of big pilgrimage sites visited regularly even if they don't involve as much walking (Rome, Jerusalem, Fatima, Lourdes, Mexico City, Turin, Medjugorje, etc)
>>272585813Luce - Lucia/Luz - Lucy
>>272586063the catholics have a long history of idolatry. it's why they have the best art.
theres already porn of her
>>272585526I wondered what you were referring to till I stumbled upon them
>>272586189what does the bear mean?
>>272585526>>272586189>marketable mascotJesus would literally kick you out of the temple

>>272586011>>272586020>the church hired da vinci, michael angelo, raphael, etc to make artno one bats an eye>the church hires an artist to do some anime artbut these anons right here are losing their minds. lol
>>272586211It's just a cute bag
>>272586089>>going to church and the food stand right at the entrance is playing Bleach music out loud
>>272586268no, the catholics are idolators. and probably the orthodox too, do they have graven images of Christ the Lord or God in their churches? The Catholics love that shit. it's not a Catholic church without the Crucified Christ on his Cross.
>>272586274WHAT DOES IT MEAN?! >>272574356
>>272586189I assume Luce and the green one are girls, while the other two are boys? Basing purely on the fact that Luce and green have bare legs.
>>272586107>making this image when Iconoclasts existed
>>272586325>do they have graven images of Christ the Lord or God in their churches?I know YHWH forbade the hebrews from putting his shit with other gods' shit but come on nowit's the same God in this case
>>272586189Why does that Cherub have a Saint Clement Cross on his hat?
>>272586242Saints are also marketable, amerifat. Every Italian city is selling tons of religious figurines and they look better than capeshit merch.
>>272586456that's honestly a dope fig
Let's go, LuceLet's stop the llama Demiurge
>>272586325
>>272586348I just realised how Pink has eye lashes but not Luce which is a nice detail considering that they're both grills. Think the two others are boys as well, but considering the differences between Luce and Pink we cannot be sure. The one with the red cape could be a girl. Wonder if they have names. Luce is feminine in Italian so maybe we could tell by the names.
>>272586532>red capeHold on, those are capes? I thought they were raincoats.
>>272586568They are raincoats. That anon is retarded.
>>272585283I do live near Santiago de Compostela/Sant-Yago Campus Stellae. There're millions of pilgrims each year and lots do it for religious reasons
Groups of cute children making a religious journey always reminds me of the Innocents Boys' Crusade manga. One of the saddest series I read, but I also enjoyed it.
So when's the bible gonna update with the Book of LO
>>272586521hey i think those buildings are truly amazing, i will probably never step inside them, but i appreciate good art and architecture. i like cathedrals and museums with religious art. the bible is pretty clear on what idolatry is. the catholics realized sympathetic art would boost the cause. beautiful art galvanizes the human soul into great action. imagine how counterproductive trying to suppress or ban religious art would have been. it was for a while the only subject to the medieval crowd, and remained a favorite into the renaissance. instead, the church spent money on it, and made sure it fit the bill, that it wasn't too scandalous. a little scandal is ok.
>>272586532They are also represent the four recognizes races similar to the non-canon three biblical magi; Casper, Melchior and Balthasar.Luce is European, The pink green girl is most likely Asian, so she also gets a "kawaii" bear bag.The two darker skinned once are like mentioned most likely boys. The red one being a Latino and the blue one being African.Also I found this image here on a booru posted by someone, don't know if the character design explanation are the actual intended ones.
>>272586495It's the saint from Bari, I bought a similar one when I was there. The church is fantastic. Funny enough, the huge St. Nicula statue in front of it was donated by Putin.
>>272585115>Church vs SatanEmperor Palpatine VS Sidious
>>272586326just like me fr
>>272586020Kind of fucked up how 99% of people are too retarded to even understand why idolatry was considered bad in the first place.By visualizing your worship through the lens of an idol, you pollute the real thing. For example, if enough people pray to a wicker statue of God for long enough, they start to associate God's presence with that wicker statue's presence. The wicker statue, being made by man, has artistic implications that will actively guide you away from a more legitimate understanding of God's nature, thus praying to an idol is a bad thing.Here's some actual consequences of idolatry: Paradise Loss and Dante's Inferno have irrevocably changed how the average Christian and even the average human perceive of Christian cosmology. Hell didn't exist like that into an Italian incel invented it. Lucifer was just some vague bad guy with no real motive until some British incel gave him a backstory. And now that shit has permanently warped how people perceive the religion. That's the danger here. Now, I'm not even going to say that idolatry is always bad, because it is a remarkably autistic concept. But the hypocrisy of retards like you rubs me the wrong way because you pearl clutch and cast judgement while not even being able to comprehend why, or see how you commit the same sins--but worse--every day.Nobody is without sin, but God is the judge, not you, faggot. Shut the fuck up and stop throwing stones in a glass house.
>>272586763>Luce is European, The pink green girl is most likely Asian, so she also gets a "kawaii" bear bag.>The two darker skinned once are like mentioned most likely boys. The red one being a Latino and the blue one being African.Oh fuck you're right.

>>272586825Yeah, but cute loli makes worshipers go UUUOOOH
>>272586825>hell didn't exist in its conventional understanding until italian incels>british incels created literally the devil>idolatry is bad because it's autisticomg the antichrist is some autistic incel isn't he
>>272586870Only if they're already fapping to little girls. I just think it's nice and cute.
>>272586957british also made up the whole rapture thing
>>272586249Japan going for that cultural victory.
>visiting the cathedrals in your country during holy weekIs there anything more comfy?
>>272587059sitting on my ass at home?
Good. Everything should be anime/manga. It's prettier, hotter, cuter, gap moe whatever you call it it looks better than any other form of modern art. Nobody needs live action or pixar shit. Make it anime.
>>272586991Wth, really? When? How?
>>272585115cringe
>>272587072i like pixarshit too. and disney. i like frozen. them scandinavian bitches do it for me.
>>272587059The cathedrals in my state are all gothic they aren't nearly as comfy as the cool shit Italians and Bavarians have, at least not from the inside. Also everything was bombed so there is barely anything from the original buildings left.
>>272587026LOL
>>272585115Based>>272587088Not based, seek God
Surprised this didn't happen earlier desuCatholics were usually the ones who were quicker on the uptake
>>272587217With how quickly the various protestant churches became warped, grotesque, and heretical, I think there was a lot of trepidation on adopting any modern outreach efforts.
>>272587086idk where you grew up, but here (Texas) it was always understood as protestant nonsense.
Who thought it was a good idea to make this?Anime and Christianity aren't two things that mesh well together.
>>272586998Kinda makes me smile the duck nun artist is on board for this too.
>>272587260It's a shame, but honestly, very fair. As much as I think Luce here is cute, I forsee the same thing happening here unless it meets the more graceful end of simply fading away without controversy / cultural significance.
>>272587281Wrong
>>272587260Protestants seem to be filled with more older peopleCatholicism has always been the one hip with the kids so they know how to jive better and adapt as ironic as it might be
>>272586189>white girls>brown/black boysEvery, fucking, time.
>>272585115These retards forgot what happens to mascots on the internet, they even made her a little girl. If this drawing could feel she would curse her creators for all eternity lmao
>>272587316There was absolutely someone in the room during her creation that made it abundantly clear that once it hit the internet, it would be defiled.
>>272586063Lack of good art. Look at all of the art the Catholic church has and look at how little protestants have.
>>272587316See>>272586849
>>272587314Amazing bait anon
>>272587295This.There's a lot of examples of weird, niche christian outreach shit that is kind of weird and doesn't really stand the test of time. I don't think it's a bad thing, just a fact. I don't think we should be pissed off or angry that most ideas fail, because, hey, most ideas fail. That's why you try a bunch of ideas until you happen upon one that works.I don't think Luce is going to be a thing, but whatever. The impulse to try and reach people isn't bad even if the results are often cringe and fade away.

>>272587304>Protestants seem to be filled with more older peopleIt's actually a problem in my area because all the older congregations are dying off and without new members most of the protestant churches are now having to sell off their property mostly to the catholics lol
>>272587542okay this is pretty cool
>>272587490There's like 10,000+ saints, Joan ain't special. Why not Michael, George, or John?
>>272587490Japan already has a million different variations of animu Jannu so just diluting it further wouldn't have any impact.
>>272586991I thought that it was American folklore Christinism and that it had nothing to do with the UK
>>272587542>ninjew
>>272585115I'm still hoping this isn't actually a thing the church is doing. It's one thing if somebody makes Veggie Tales, it's another thing entirely if the church makes something like Veggie Tales. It comes across as highly disingenuous and risks being idoltry or propaganda with no actual faith in the faith itself.

The fanart of Luce has been lit and cute so far.
>>272587375the dutch have some of the best humanistic paintings and plenty of non Catholics have made beautiful works of art. The neo iconoclast movement is just a bunch of weirdo Americans that don't know how to debate so just name call.

>>272588346I never even met more than three or so christians in my country we stopped being religious ages ago (save for one or two states maybe), but it doesn't seem weird to me I mostly see it as art related and cultural thing.
>>272588776Hell yeah!
>>272588374/hotglue/bros, you wouldn't... right?
>>272588205Casual sex that isn't aiming for procreation even between a man and a woman is a sin in Catholicism, although it's the kind of thing everyone basically disregards when it doesn't involve homosexuality.
>>272585283>catholics barely do that anymoreNot really, at least in LATAM there is still a lot of interest in making travels to sanctuaries and feasts:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kgl8Fav44HUMany people don't even do it because they are particularly faithful (although most say "Well, why not? Let's make a wish") but as a way to break away with Spengler's "world city" and the grind of digital and industrial life, and it's only natural in times of strife and uncertainty people turn to old traditions to feel a sense of transcendence and continuity.
