Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro

This anime is about a lady, Nagatoro, and her "senpai" (a term referring to an "earlier colleague," i.e., one of a higher grade, or "year", in Japan), Naoto. I know a guy who, after watching this anime, became rather degenerate and ended up compromising heavily on doctrine and standards. This show is harmful to Christians.

Overtly Explicit

This show is on the border between "soft porn" and straight up pornography. Common Sense Media states that in this show there are "Constant sexual references and innuendos."¹ Additionally, the women wear short skirts and "revealing clothing."¹ The "outline" of a woman's genitals are shown.²

"In the beach episode, Nagatoro and her friends change into swimsuits...Cleavage is visible."²

"There are scenes of Nagatoro showing her underwear, fondling her breasts, unbuttoning her shirt, and a scene where she is completely nude while her private parts are only covered by her hands."¹

The IMDb page lists many of the actual "Constant sexual references", but I don't feel they need to be spoken of in-depth. I don't believe any saved person living in accordance with God Word will need any other reasons to not watch this show. The Bible says to think on things pure and of good report. This anime is the opposite of that.

"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." (Philippians 4:8)

Nagatoro (the main female in the anime) is a Proverbs 5-7 woman. Her lips "drop as an honeycomb" (Proverbs 5:3), she is a "evil woman" (Proverbs 6:24), and a "woman with the attire of an harlot...She is loud and stubborn" (Proverbs 7:10-11). There are many other things in those passages that could be used to describe her, but that should suffice.

Conclusion

This is a shorter article, yes. But that's because the anime is mostly just Nagatoro "toying" with Naoto with sexual things. That's the whole theme of the anime and it is wickedness.

Against Anime

180AD "Against Heresies" - Irenaeus 2025AD "Against Anime" - Me I believe watching most, if not all anime, to be sinful. One may ask how I can make such a brazen statement. That's what this essay is for; I'd like to explain my case against anime. What is Anime? We must first define "anime." Anime, as I have gathered, refers to animation originating from Japan. This means that American cartoons (even if they look like anime) are not considered proper anime. Now, there's a little nuance as some consider donghua (Chinese animations) and Korean animations to be anime, while others make distinctions. For the purpose of this blog, we go with the latter definition which excludes donghua and Korean animation (though there is sometimes overlap). Thus, the running definition for anime I've come up with is: Anime , noun : Animation originating from Japan.  Why is Anime Bad? Now that we have a definition for anime, let's look at what makes me ...

Reflection One Hundred

The Holy Anime Wars  is a blog I started several months ago to help combat the ever-growing so-called "Christian anime" community, particularly their teachings. I praise the Lord for revealing the evils of anime to me and for pulling me out of that world. Reflecting on the Blog When I created this blog, I had no idea what it would become. As of the writing of this post, the blog has received over 6,800 views. The blog continues to gain hundreds of visitors per month, which seems insane to me. This success wasn't my own doing, as my writing is not that great. God is the one who saw fit to bless this blog, and I praise the Lord for His blessings. " Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. " (James 1:17) My desire, through this blog, is not merely to reveal the nature of many anime, but to direct people back to the Bible—"What d...

Saint Cecilia and Pastor Lawrence

For this anime, it was hard to pin anything down. Not because there aren't things in it, but because neither IMDb nor Common Sense Media have anything written about its contents. I had watched this show soon after it was released (yes, I used to watch anime) so most of what I say is based upon my memory, but I tried to find sources for accuracy. Ecumenical Christianity This show has many crosses throughout. Lawrence (the pastor) and Cecilia (the saint) run the church right outside their town. Due to the usage of "pastor" and "saint," the crosses, and the church looking like the average old-time Baptist church, many have claimed the anime as a "Christian anime." The term "pastor" is mostly associated with non-denominational and Baptist groups while calling someone a "saint" (in an unbiblical sense) tends to be Catholic and Orthodox. Additionally, the way the "church" in this world is, it is somewhat of an ecclesiastical hi...
