Saint☆Young Men
Directed by Noriko Takao
Produced by A-1 Pictures, TOHO
A lighthearted, irreverent comedy about two religious founders navigating modern Tokyo as roommates, built entirely on warmth, playfulness, and affectionate spiritual parody.
Jesus Christ and Gautama Buddha, the founders of Christianity and Buddhism, are living together as roommates in a Tokyo apartment while taking a vacation on Earth. The comedy often involves jokes about Christianity, Buddhism, and all things related, as well as the main characters' attempts to hide their identities and understand modern society in Japan.
