Saint Young Men (Seinto Oniisan) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Hikaru Nakamura. Its plot involves Jesus Christ and Gautama Buddha, who are living as roommates in an apartment in Tokyo. It has been serialized by Kodansha in the monthly seinen manga magazine Morning 2 since September 2006, with chapters collected in ten tankōbon volumes as of May 2014. A-1 Pictures adapted the manga series into two original video animations (OVAs) and an anime film which was released on May 10, 2013.

Jesus Christ and Gautama Buddha, the founders of Christianity and Buddhism respectively, are living together as roommates in an apartment in Tachikawa, Tokyo, while taking a vacation on Earth. The comedy often involves jokes about Christianity, Buddhism, and the main characters' attempts to hide their identities and understand modern Japanese society. Each chapter shows their lives during an average day, and when they go sightseeing or visit amusement parks.

Boku Hetalia

Hetalia: Axis Powers is a Japanese webcomic, later adapted as a manga and an anime series, by Hidekaz Himaruya. The series' main presentation is as an often over-the-top allegory of political and historic events as well as more general cultural comparisons. Characters are personifications of countries, regions such as Hong Kong, and micronations such as thePrincipality of Sealand, with little reference to other national personifications such as Uncle Sam or John Bull. Both positive and negative cultural stereotypes form part of each character's personality.

The character roster is large and far from complete, but the main cast could be said to be the countries which made up the Axis powers and Allies of World War II - namely Italy (North Italy in particular), Germany, Japan,United States, England, France, Russia, and China. Hetalia  is a portmanteau combining hetare (ヘタレ^?, Japanese for "useless" or "pathetic" in a cute or endearing way) and the Italian word for Italy.^[1] The main storyline's events occur during World War II, but the vast majority of the comics take place during other historical events, modern holidays, or at no specific time whatsoever. The series often uses satire and light-hearted comedy to reinterpret well-known events as well as less common historical and cultural trivia. Historical, political, economic, and military interaction between countries is generally represented in Hetalia as social and romantic interactions and misunderstandings between the characters.

Seven Social Sins

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Seven Social Sins, sometimes called the Seven Blunders of the World, is a list that Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi published in his weekly newspaper Young India on October 22, 1925. Later he gave this same list to his grandson, Arun Gandhi, written on a piece of paper on their final day together shortly before his assassination. 

The Seven Sins are:

• Wealth without work.
• Pleasure without conscience.
• Knowledge without character.
• Commerce without morality.
• Science without humanity.
• Worship without sacrifice.
• Politics without principle.

Seven 

(stylized as Se7en) is a 1995 American neo-noir thriller film written by Andrew Kevin Walker and directed by David Fincher. The film stars Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman, with Gwyneth Paltrow, R. Lee Ermey, John C. McGinley, and Kevin Spacey in supporting roles.

The newly transferred David Mills (Pitt) and the soon-to-retire William Somerset (Freeman) are homicide detectives who become deeply involved in the case of a sadistic serial killer (Spacey) whose meticulously planned murders correspond to the seven deadly sins: gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, pride, lust and envy.

How sins portrayed in film?

1. Gluttony was the very large man tied to a chair in his apartment and he had been force fed to death. 

2. Greed was the lawyer who lost a pound of flesh 

3. Sloth was the man tied to his bed for over a year and there were pictures all over documenting the year. He wasn't dead when they found him, but his brain was mush. 

4. Lust was the guy at the porno place who "John Doe" made put a device on his penis and have sex with a woman killing her. 

5. Pride was the model who had her nose cut off to spite her face. He gave her the option of suicide or living disfigured and he glued the sleeping pills to one hand and a phone to the other one. She chose suicide which represented pride. 

6. Envy was John Doe himself, he wanted what Mills had...Wife family etc. Doe told Mills that he had been to Mills' home and visited his wife and she had begged for her life and the life of the unborn child...Mills didn't know she was pregnant and Doe told Mills to become... 

7. Wrath. Which he did when he killed Doe.
