Why does Japan like the battle priest cliche so much?

Why does Japan like the battle priest cliche so much?

Chrono Trigger did it.

Because Japan is completely off the radar of muslims and it's best for everyone if it stays that way.

>evil

If anything, they're one of the good guys of the setting, they kill vampires and mages who go too far.

Yeah, but they are one of those guy that think that the end justices the mean, which mean that the majority of people would think them evil.

Because it's cool

are there a lot of catholics in japan?

Buddhist warrior priests were cool as hell.

You're thinking of gookland. Most Koreans are Catholic. Japan is mostly Shinto/Buddhism. They're knowledge of Christianity is fucked because >muh repressions >my glorious Nippon steel

Which is why you have that weird half assed Christian themes and shit that aren't quite right in anime all the time.

Nothing compared to the warrior priests of the crusades. Killing infidel scum, Deus Volt.

>Most Koreans are Catholic
????
the only brand of Christianity with a strong presence in Korea is Protestantism, which is itself as varied as religion in Korea is

Abrahamic religious practices and those of East and South Asia are nothing alike so you can't even view them with the same lens

>volt

wrong post lol

anyway Christianity is viewed in Japan pretty much the same way Shintoism and other animistic and poly/heno-theistic ones are in the West, which is more or less to be expected

I would let Kirei fuck me, no homo.

I don't give a shit if they like to dry hump crosses while shoving virgin marys up their ass, as long as they are seeing any religion besides islam as "cool" than I'm happy as a clam.

Lest they follow the path of Europe.

>find out said religion still exists and is disgustingly rich
It's like the loud gaijin thing

Corrupted purity is the best, don't you know?

most Japanese aren't really religious at all, but they have a cultural Shinto and Buddhist background. Though if they are, they're Buddhist.

However, the few Christians there are, are almost all Catholic.
