The title "Noble Maiden" is awarded to students of the Oushin Girls' Academy who "embody the ideal Japanese woman of culture and refinement."¹ When a rich real estate agent remarried, Lilisa Suzunomiya became his step-daughter. She is determined to prove that even commoners like herself can be noble. However, Lilisa is having a hard time letting go of her love for rock music, despite trying to appear dignified.¹
This all comes to an end when she meets a fellow student named Otoha Kurogane. Lilisa found her in an abandoned school building and learned that Otoha was a skilled drummer. The pair lives a double life as they embrace their musical desires.¹
Profanity
This anime uses terrible language.² There is nothing about a profane mouth that is godly or holy. In fact, it is quite the opposite. The Scriptures tell us that we are to let "no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth" (Ephesians 4:29).
With this in mind, we Christians should not take pleasure in watching shows or anime with this evil speech in them. We are told in 1 Corinthians 15:33 that evil communications will corrupt our good manners. Everything that you put into your mind will influence you, and the Lord tells us that perverse lifestyles will corrupt us. That is why it is so important that we guard ourselves from consuming sinful media.
Additionally, the Proverbs explicitly charge us to keep this sort of speech away from ourselves.
"Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee." (Proverbs 4:24)
In context, this verse comes right after a charge to keep our hearts pure. And later, the passage says that we are to move our foot from evil. Thus, when a show contains profanity, we are not to watch it. This is one reason why Rock is a Lady's Modesty is not an anime we are allowed to consume.
Immodesty
This anime has immodesty in it as well. According to IMDb, a female character's breasts are exposed.² Additionally, several characters wear clothing that reveals their cleavages and/or thighs. Scripturally, this is immodest.
"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)
Considering what the Bible says plainly in this passage, we cannot, at the same time, believe it is fine for these people to dress the way they do. And why would we want our entertainment to be filled with sinful dress? That doesn't make sense, and God tells us that we aren't.
"I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me." (Psalm 101:3)
It is so ironic that the show is called Rock is a Lady's Modesty but is full of immodesty!
Conclusion
With that said, I think it is clear what the Bible has to say about this anime's contents and why it is contrary to His Word. Please, heed the Lord and His commands. Obey Him and put your foot far away from this show!
