Also just how jarring it is to see how stupid the church was, when even a fairly cursory investigation into the history of the church in the real world reveals they were actually fairly accommodating of scientific and medical pursuits. Often even the chief facilitators of them.

did they finish Castlevania series?

Though my favorite classic vampire is Carmilla =P

@Nevis and made blood wine

What

Blood wine

@Edelgard von Hresvelg no, there should be a new season

what are we, klingons now?

emo twats

Carmilla is kinda meh (except her Castlevania Judgment incarnation)

I’ve really come around to weebs. I used to despise them like furries and bronies, but now I realize they’re just cultured.

I'm quoting that

holy shit

It's more of a local legend around Vlad's castle used to sell merch @Nevis

you still call them fucking weebs

See there, that is how you become a man of culture

indiscriminate weebiness is a cancer, but selective weebiness is bretty gud

you need to have standards

I mean
Again
I personally considered it to be partly the result of a particularly bad regional church, rather than necessarily the entirety of Catholicism being that bad

Well yes

you can't just like stuff just because it's japanese, or you look like an idiot

That's goin' places

Anyone here familiar with Shoukoku no Altair

nah fam, Castlevania church is pretty wack

I wonder if Ubel Blatt finished, I have not checked up on it in months

But yeah really that's it, japanophilia where everything japan is better? Hell no.

LOL grats on your pin, Hurt.

Megumin, 15?
_Lies_

@Nevis Doesn't really seem to be any evidence of a "non-bad" aspect of the church. The only saving grace they have is that apparently their blessings really do repel demons and undead, not they that really employ them very effectively. But yeah, I'm just going on the altnerate history where the church (and most people) are stupid evil rationalization.

But recognition that Japanese media actually still writes stories instead of woke shit?

We have really only seen the local church
So I am withholding judgment on the rest of it

Until such time as we see more

Castlevania's church is based off the Romanian Orthodox Church during the 13th century which was very Deus Vult/burn the heretic

Japan is tolerable
They farm melons using concentrated autism, have serious problems with social structure, and have absolutely no taste in leadership
But they're the logitech mouse of animation and have a neat spirituality to them

Weren't they mostly dealing with muslims at the time, though?
