Series Recommendation, 'Ah! My Buddha!'

[mdehners]

I'd ignored this classic Anime for yrs because of it's title but being stuck in the house with my leg up(Cellulitis, getting better though)makes me bored and;>....
'AMB' is a series of the "Only in Japan" type show. A young man follows his family's Wish and he begins his Path of becoming a monk at the Buddhist temple his grandmother runs. At the time she has a number of Novice Nuns, all also Teens. This particular temple specializes in Blessings and Exorcisms. The "quirk" is that the young man is completely useless Spiritually UNLESS he's Aroused. Yes, I said AROUSED. So, when an Exorcism goes bad, one or another Novice Nun has to flash her Breasts or panties(or none in one episode dealing with an underwear stealing ghost at a Middle school..only those with cups sizes lC and larger;>).
Silly but fun....
Cheers,
Pat

Underwear stealing ghost! That's the scariest kind! I'm hiding under the magic pillow, man! :D

It's a neat twist on a "Ghostbusters" type series;>! Growing up in a family where my Mom raised my two older brother in Japan meant I was exposed(mostly through books and some weirdness like my Mom "swearing" in japanese)to a lot of Japanese culture so sometimes I forget how odd some of them seem to Western eyes....like bisexuality in female characters and the acceptance of Queens(though as clown characters, accepted as part of culture but not as equal members).
Can you imagine an American cartoon where the main character drives away monsters by a Power that only manifests when he gets turned on my a pair of big boobs or panties;>?
