This is the last post about obscure Japanese religions, I promise. And look! It’s an anime!
This is Thomas Edison. He used a spirit phone to call four Japanese teenagers to Heaven. This is all I’m going to say about this anime, because it is something you must see for yourself. Download it. You will thank me for it later.
The Japan Times printed an article about Happy Science, part of which unfairly compares it to Aum Shinrikyo (Ookawa is not the kind of person who would kill innocent civilians–watch The Laws of Eternity if you don’t believe me), but part of which is quite eye-opening.
A book released recently, “The Guardian Spirit of Kim Jong Il Speaks,” by party founder and President Ryuho Okawa, explains that the voice of Kim’s “guardian spirit” warned him of the North’s plans. Okawa also tunes into the thoughts of Japan’s wartime monarch, Emperor Hirohito, and his deceased predecessors.
Yup
