I am attempting to read D. Gray-Man but I have to stop every chapter or so to giggle. This is the silliest shit ever.

It is a manga series about a boy who is an exorcist of, not demons, but deliberately not-translated-from-Japanese akuma. His left arm/hand is a weapon against these akuma. There are crosses everywhere and a plethora of Roman-Catholic imagery, but the main character gleefully calls upon ‘the gods’ whenever he smacks down the bitches with his sinister (the left hand is considered impure, which is why it’s extra-funny) cross-hand, which, also, brings them salvation.

We’re at the end of the 19th century, which was a pretty sensible period to set the series, because there is a female police officer and a boy with roller blades. And nuns can marry pastors.

I can’t make this shit up. It’s actually really fun to read. Without the willfully ignorant interpretation of culture and religion it would be much, much less entertaining.

The art is pretty, too, which is why I picked it up in the first place. Very polished.
