I recently came across this website in the search engines awhile back and found it to be quite interesting: http://www.christiananime.net/index.php It's a website who's sole purpose is doing reviews of anime from a Christian's perspective. I actually found this site to be rather interesting and unlike the infamous Christiananswers.net, the people that do the reviews here actually seem to watch the anime they review! Of course, I believe the reviews at this site are done by teenagers and not adults, but I actually found this to be a decent review site. In fact, the only thing I probably didn't like about it is that they need to review more anime. ^^;; I haven't been to their forums yet, so I can't say what I think about them, but I haven't noticed anything that anyone's said in the reviews that's bashed other people or anything like that or any inaccurate information from the reviews I've read. Anyway, check it out and post your opinion about this anime site. ^^

This is actually pretty decent, and were it not for the the little religious bit at the bottom of the reviews, I could take this as just a regular anime review site. I think they do a damn good job breaking down the anime, and most of it looks downright accurate.

Rachel: Huh...a...moo point?
Joey: Yeah. It''''s like a cow''s opinion. It doesn''t matter....It''s moo.

I agree. I think it's a great review site. It has a great purpose, and fulfills it well. That would be a good site for parents to check out these shows, and decide if they want their kids watching them. Though I did find a few things I didn't quite agree with on the site, that's understandable, as I don't share their faith.

i'm really impressed by this site. i was really expecting it to be one of those biased christian sites, but it was very well done. i was kind of put off by the way he didn't really think it necessary to give x anything resembling a review because he obviously didn't like it. other than that, yeah, it's a very impressive site.

Very nice! They gave honest reviews just like other online anime review sites as well as adding the religion category and a chart instead of the usual stars. Thanks for posting this here or I would never have known.

I'm very pleased to see a Christian site that gives an unbias view of the series they review. I like how they will say that a series is good and speak positively about it, even if it might offend Christians, which is a very nice thing to see. :)
