Could Jesus Christ be censored/removed in Steel Ball Run anime adapatation? I asked because I noticed in Record of Ragnarok by Netflix they removed Jesus Christ's appearance from the manga.
Aside from the implied Mormonism, I'd watch whose offended by a depiction of Christ very carefully.
>>285261651Amen brother.
>>285261607yes
>>285261607Very unlikely. He's inextricably linked to the story.
>>285261607Where would the pressure to censor it even come from?
>>285262024Not from Christians, ironicallyMaybe from people pretending to speak for Christians."Someone out there might find this offensive"is the most common justification for censorship now. Advocating on behalf of people who may not even exist.
>>285262024Netflix agenda doesn’t need pressure.
>>285262068Well they're right, considering the amount of censorship modern puritans currently do and did in the past.
>>285262024Senjus
>>285261607There was that canceled series. Drifters, talks about how he wages war on humanity for what it did to him but calls himself the dark king where he healed the monsters and had holes in his hands.
>>285262582i thought that was hitler? i only saw the anime
>>285262024christians tried to censor the jerry springer opera because chirst is an adult baby in it, no one cared>>285262448this, they only tolerate him if he's being mocked
>>285262623Hitler founded the human kingdom where most of the story takes place
>>285261651I haven't read steel ball run yetWhat does this have to do with Mormons
>>285263339Steel Ball Run takes place in AmericaMormons believe the people of Jerusalem immigrated en masse to the new world in 600 BC and that Jesus visited America after resurrection
>>285262072Huh what they have no say in making this?
>>285264967>En masseIt was two wealthy families and their servants
>>285265709But this is definitely off topic now, so I won't elaborate on this
>>285265709oh okay I didn't know thatludicrous anyway
>>285261607It's been like 10 years since I read Steel Ball Run. Why was the holy corpse scattered around America in the first place? How did it get there
>>285267494Jesus raised from his death and travel East, then took a boat and sail to America where he lived for the rest of his life and died (for real this time) there. His corpse then was splitted by an earthquake and various things like animals, river, wind,... carry each part to their current location
>>285267494Jesus faked his death and chilled in north america. Then his corpse is mummified in the midwest, after which animals and natural forces move the pieces around the continent.
>>285261607It's honestly the most based depiction of Jesus in modern media
>>285261986When has that ever stopped them?
>>285261607Jesus is actually depicted as he should be, an incredibly powerful presence whose mere corpse can manipulate the spirit and fortune of a country. I haven't read that Ragnarok shit but skimming over the plot I find hilarious that whoever was the Jap who wrote it put some of the most important figures in the history of humanity and religion at the same level as some irrelevant old Jap samurai.
>>285261607>never see his face>they don't use his nameThey might get away with it by feigning ignorance.
>>285269704Johnny namedrops him. Also Valentine.
>>285261607If I'm not misremembering, i think it's never directly called as such, just heavily implied, but religious fanatics ruin everything, so it could be.
>>285262582Is it canceled? Hirano is just lazy fuck who pumps out 1-2 chapter a year. We got all those specials but can't get proper season 2 cuz there is too little to show. Anyway Jesus being evil here is a gimmick of the story, like every good and bad characters switched sides and evil people are evil just cause
>>285262068>Not from Christians, ironicallyDawg you do realize that christians have been the strongest advocate for censorship since back then right?
>>285262024You know who
>>285267494America is God's chosen land.Notice how not a single corpse part was in Canada or Mexico? Some get pretty close to the borders, but all of them are within the US.Coincidence? I think not!
>>285261607They made an anime where Jesus and Buddha share an apartment in Tokyo. Japan does not care.
>>285269704>>285270043Meme localize him as 「THE ANOINTED 」
>>285261986>corpse that gives supernatural abilitiescould be replaced with any corpse really
>>285261607JoJo referencing extremely popular things is just shit IMO.It's not a breath of fresh fair, everyone knows about Jesus, it just makes Araki looks lazy and unoriginal that never did research against niche stuff to put to his manga.
>>285270139hirano is just lazy i think, which is a pity
>>285268305>I hate fun
>>285274380what is it like to be retarded anon
>>285272220The only thing God would choose America is for the next flood. Your disgusting greed filled morally bankrupt country is the epitome of everything anti religious and pious in the world, and that says something considering other countries that aren't even Christian exist.
>>285275917Introducing stuff that people have never seen before is more interesting.
>>285264967>Mormons believe>Joseph Smith, known thief, liar, con artist, and rapist, convinced gullible people*Fixed your typo.
>>285276051How was Smith able to build a fuck huge religion so fast? Why were people so desperate to believe in supernatural shit?
>>285261607Likely not to be directly named Jesus if they feel the need to, can't erase his appearance outright as it is integral to the story.
>>285268305You aren't all wrong, Record of Ragnarok depicted Jesus as just an enlightened wise human, placed on the same level as other wise historical figures like Confucius.The anime committee likely feared Jesus being depicted as not all holy could be seen as an insult in the west, especially due the fact Buddha is still depicted with his usual portrayal of becoming a god through enlightenment, that can be seen as favoring one deity over the other.>>285275856Jesus has no significance whatsoever in the series beyond this, the removal is easier to accommodate.
>>285276074That means do not carve idols and worship them in place of God you dipshit.
>>285262024ユダヤ人
>>285262024Nonwhites. And brainwashed lefties.
>>285270294Only for blockbuster movies Christian boomers don't watch anime
>>285261728>AmenIt's christ fags who get offended by depictions of jesus the most.
>>285261607If Netflix is giving them any money, 100%.
>>285273989That was before current timesand even then some online "journalist" were outraged
>>285278451Because cringelords like him are too young to remember that, they only know censorship when it's done by sjw leftists and since christians are associated with right wing that means they're all "based". That's where this embarrassing christian larping came from as well as also being inspired by the islamification agitprop that jews put out during the 2010's.
JOshua, son of JOseph; But his friends call him JOJO!
>>285276104They did missions in the UK, promising people they'd have better lives in the USA if they followed their weird religion, and then payed for them to be shipped over. There's no more to it than that lol, they just targeted desperate disenfranchised people suffering extreme poverty during the industrial revolution and offered them better lives. That's how mormonism was built.
>>285268004Always
>>285276104If it was just about the supernatural, America already had every branch of Christianity possible to choose from.Mormonism is a thing because there's a sucker born every minute.
I could see them calling him the saint all the way through and maybe removing the crown of thorns
>>285279478It wasn't, read the post above. There was nothing natural about its sudden popularity.
>>285276050I've never seen Jesus.
>>285262024>>285262068>>285271086>>285276966>>285277146is the three letter word banned here? never saw this grade of tiptoeing on any board before
>>285270294HELLO SAAAR
>>285261607huh? there are Christian references in almost every fantasy anime, why are they starting to censor it now?
>>285279305>islamFuck, that's right, they claim Jesus as a prophet, too. Anybody with enough spite could say it's blasphemy to depict him as ever even having died.
>>285279576Jew, for fucks sake. Just say Jew you cowards.
>>285262024kikes
>>285282219Surprised they haven't done that, that would be such a jewish thing to do. Fund muslims trying to ban public depictions of crucified Jesus, and then fund the shabbos goy right with the whole "islam is taking ovah da west!!111" angle.
https://tiermaker.com/create/jojo-original-universe-parts-1-6-708968?downloadedImage=trueAnyone care for a jojo character tierlist based on their anime themes??
>>285273989That was years ago
Jesusbros... why are women like this?
>>285282275*jew
>>285276862>"Cursed be the man who makes a carved image or any likeness of anything, for he has turned the Lord’s work into a falsehood." --Deuteronomy 27:15 not necessarilycarving images is a mockery to God's creation
>>285282275Jews wouldn't censor jesus in Jojo, they'd love the idea of christ getting dismembered and used for people killing each other.
>>285285209>says that after ordering the hebrews to make carved images of cherubimsWhy is God such a schizophrenic guy?
>>285262024商人
>>285261607Hope it will so it can piss off christianfags.
>>285261607He's too important to the plot to be outright removed, but I can see the anime removing any allusion to him being Jesus and reduce him to just "a saint".Like, imagine if when he appears in the Civil War, instead of appearing from behind to Johnny he's just a dark sillhoutte with a glowing aura around him.
Isnt there a scene anyway of him on the cross? Youd have to be a genuine retard to not think of jesus, so they should probably namedrop him
>>285286064That's definitely getting cut
>>285262024tengus
>>285276104The earliest Mormons were essentially a cult of murderers/thieves who travelled around, despised by everyone they encountered.Times were tough and they wanted a piece.
Speaking of Mormons, I miss when South Park was good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaRsv1xNT3A
