This show begins with a man named Gojou who loves making hina dolls. He spends much of his time creating clothes for the dolls. The woman, Marin, has a desire to cosplay but she is not very skilled in sewing. She enlists the help of Gojou to create outfits for her to cosplay in.¹
Sexual Content
In this anime, immodesty and sexual content are found. There are cleavages and short skirts. On top of that, Crunchyroll says there is nudity and suggestive dialogue in the show.²
"Cleavage is shown and the main character gets partially naked"
"The main character is trying to make a girl a dress and needs her measurements so she takes off her clothes and has a bathing suit on"
"A young girl comes out of the shower in one scene and drops her towel. Mostly censored, but a lot of her buttocks is clearly shown."
"Occasionally over-the-top animation of sexual content."
"A ball gag is shown and inappropriate adult faces are made very early on in the anime."³
On top of this, the cosplay outfits are all very inappropriate. This anime is very heavy soft porn. Do you think this is pleasing to God? Of course it's not. The Lord tells women to be modest.
"In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;" (1 Timothy 2:9)
This verse reveals to us that modesty is not an option. Modesty is a requirement. Thus, a show, like this one, that contains a lot of immodesty is not okay or fine.
Profanity
There is also some profanity in this anime.³ This includes taking the Lord's name in vain. Such language is not alright. It is wrong, and thus the Christian should not fill their minds with it.
"(For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;)" (2 Peter 2:8)
If Lot vexed his soul by what he heard, don't we think we should take heed lest we fall (1 Corinthians 10:12)?
Conclusion
Such content is displeasing to God. It is wrong and sinful. May we remember the price Christ paid on the cross. Paul asks, "Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?" and he answered, "God forbid" (Romans 6:1-2)!
