聖おにいさん – sei onii san
As we are still in the holiday season, the manga by 中村光 (Nakamura Hikaru) that amused me greatly and that fits the season's spirit oh so well.
Sei Oniisan - Saint Brothers.
聖 --せい-- (n,n-pref) (1) Saint; St.; S.; (n,adj-na) (2) sacred; holy; pure
This manga follows Jesus and Buddha living in an apartment in the modern Japan. Riiiight! That just so fun on so many levels. Buddha makes a third of the t-shirts the both wear with the tale-telling slogans. I have so much fun trying to figure out the references on Jesus's t-shirts (I totally fail to understand what's on Buddha's ))))))
in ch.1 Jesus had "アーメン" -- amen-- t-shirt
in ch.2 Jesus had " ミレニアム" -- millennium -- t-shirt
in ch.3 Jesus had an English t-shirt "Like is not ambitious".
in ch.4 Jesus had t-shirt "13" - is it about what I think it is about?
in ch.5 Jesus had "父と私と精霊" - Father, Me and Holy Spirit ))) t-shirt. ))))
