About Ema, from Shinto tradition to Anime
An extensive photo presentation of this amazing mixture of popular culture and tradition. I admit, it is strange, but I also find it beautiful…
I am interested in other opinions on this matter…

If it makes people happy then why not.
I'm curious, do they buy those pre-drawn and then write on the back? So many are well done!

Superbe fotografii, e asa multa culoare ca pana si in ziua asta mohorata din Bucuresti ma simt mai voioasa. Si eu care credeam ca am vazut cam tot ce au templele de oferit...I'll think again ^_^ Muza-chan, site-ul tau este o bucurie pentru mine, as vrea sa-l adaug la blogroll-ul meu, ar fi ok? Mersi.

World would probably be a better place if all religions would be so tolerant

I imagine that older people are quite shocked. I guess the best way to think about them would be as stationery — just a medium to write the prayers. Then even anime characters would be perfectly acceptable.

Thanks for all the fantastic images. I feel like I'm right there!
It is strange to see, but it's also lovely. An interesting mix of modern and traditional.

This is very interesting! Art is art as they say and having expanded consciousness to accept the anime art is a good example of how we can be more accepting, and tolerant, of change!

Like every one else is saying a nice mix if the old and the new. Anime and religion, why not. Like before another great set of photos. :thumb::photo:

It's cool that they accept these non-traditional emas, it's good that they tolerate change like this. I wonder what otakus write on their Lucky Star emas though, maybe they wish for another season^^

Amazing combination of old and new. I definetly like the cross of Shinto and manga. It seems to me to be an imaginative way of showing your faith.

Very interesting mixing the traditional with the new! Change is always good! Great presentation & photos!
