The Hidden Dungeon Only I Can Enter

Noir Stalgia is a nobleman who is oppressed by others in nobility. He has a special ability, to communicate with the Great Sage, who tells him about anything he wants to know. Unable to become a librarian, Noir decides to join the Hero Academy. To do so, he must get stronger. The Great Sage tells him to go to a dungeon in the mountains.¹

Whilst there, Noir finds a chained-up woman, Olivia Servant. She gives Noir powerful abilities, making him strong. However, when he uses his abilities, he loses life points. To replenish his life points, he has to "give in to worldly pleasures such as kissing his childhood friend".¹

Sexual Content

This anime has a lot of sexual content. People kiss sensually, women's breasts are exposed, and undergarments are seen.² Women touch Noir inappropriately.² Crunchyroll says that this anime contains nakedness.³ Women wear shorts and short skirts. According to the Bible, this sort of content 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)

Women should act and dress modestly. Yet, we have Noir and his "harem" doing things that ought not be done. The next verse says: "But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works" (1 Timothy 2:10). Does it become women professing godliness when they are acting like harlots?

"[26] My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways. [27] For a whore is a deep ditch; and a strange woman is a narrow pit. [28] She also lieth in wait as for a prey, and increaseth the transgressors among men." (Proverbs 23:26-28) 

These women act are strange women. God says to observe His way, to keep your eyes on what is holy and good, and to keep them off the strange woman and whore. Therefore, because this anime has a lot of immodesty and sexual media, we must conclude the scriptures condemn it.

Violence

Another issue with The Hidden Dungeon Only I Can Enter is the violence found in the show.³ When there is violence, at least one side is in sin. As such, there will never be a time where violence is acceptable to watch. This anime is violent and has fights in it.² Surely no Christian would call violence godly?

"The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth." (Psalm 11:5)

Do you want to be hated by the Jehovah's soul? I sure don't! I want to be living in accordance with the scriptures. To do so, I must avoid consuming violent media. I implore you to consider what the Bible says above.

Magic

Even from the plot itself, one can already figure out that there are magical elements to this anime. Can we truly justify the consumption of witchcraft? No, we cannot. God is clear in His word that witchcraft/magic is demonic in nature and that we are to put those things away from us.

In fact, those things are called abominations (Deuteronomy 18:9-12). Now, consider what this next verse says:

"Neither shalt thou bring an abomination into thine house, lest thou be a cursed thing like it: but thou shalt utterly detest it, and thou shalt utterly abhor it; for it is a cursed thing." (Deuteronomy 7:26)

If abominations (e.g., magic) are not to be in your house, then we can conclude that there should not be magic in your house. That's abundantly clear from the scriptures.

Conclusion

To do what we're supposed to, we should not consume this anime. There are many aspects to this show that are evil and wicked. There is no reason for a Christian to watch it, and doing so would be contrary to the clear commands of the Bible.

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...
