What are your thoughts on #Luce?

This is a little thing I created for my own amusement.

Why not instead make a manga about the life of Takashi Nagai as a boy? He actually didn’t experience a conversion until adulthood, but it could be loosely based on his life (a slice of life ; ) It could also star Satoko Kitahara as a girl. She also experienced a conversion in adulthood. I say replace Luce with these Catholic saints.

Saint Maximilian Kolbe spent a year in Japan and there is Japanese fan-fiction written about him. They could even play off of these stories. Two of these historical fiction books have been translated into English. I own one written in Japanese, but it is more of a conversation peace, since I can’t read the language. I also own a Bible in Japanese.

My daughter loves anime and she is learning Japanese for our trip there after she graduates.

But, I wanted to get everyone opinion on this plan to make Luce the official mascot of the Holy Year 2025.

Sounds wonderful to me! We have no end of amazing saints and holy figures in our rich history—and that’s the best they could come up with??? Bizarre.

I find it effeminate and therefore a perfect symbol for the type of men running the church. Then again, I don’t get the whole anime thing to begin with so I am probably biased.

I did enjoy this post by Eric Sammons.
