After sitting through Hermes - Winds of Love (sober, even!) I don't have any desire to watch any more crazy religious anime. Some things are just too weird, even for me.

/Although, to it's credit, Hermes did get closer to actual Greek mythology than Hollywood did with it's Clash of the Titans remake. It wasn't that bad, right up to the LSD trip two-thirds of the way in.

//Oh, and take a lesson from Harold Camping. Don't predict the end of the world with a timespan that you'll still be alive for. Year 201X my ass.

Take a page from Isaac Newton (1642-1727), who predicted that the world wouldn't ends before 2060.

As a religious studies major, I admit I want to see these. Where do people watch them? Is there some obscure fansub group that specializes in anime made by NRMs?

I am sad to say I am not surprised that the writer for kindaichi case files and detective academy Q is associated with them...... and I am the one who runs the group that translates their mystery works.
