| a comedy anime movie that is rare to see lol |
| F*ck yeah, been waiting for an adaption. |
| I'm happy for this one, I wanted to read manga soon ;) It's a shame it didn't get a TV series though. |
  |
| Wait.. too many great news for just one day! I might die from overdose of happiness. |
  |
| This should be interesting. I know my one friend will be very excited about it. |
| I wonder who will do it? If it was a TV series I'd expect SHAFT to do it, but who knows about a movie. SHAFT is pretty busy so I guess they're out of the picture. |
| Ok™ |
McRib said: I wonder who will do it? If it was a TV series I'd expect SHAFT to do it, but who knows about a movie. SHAFT is pretty busy so I guess they're out of the picture. i hope that it'll be shaft, but don't think so, or it'll come out like in 4 years from now. |

| Comedy + Seinen = I'm in. |
| Great news! I've been wanting to read the manga. |
| I could picture it as an OVA/OAD series like DMC, but a full length movie of pure randomness? Makes me wonder... Also, Catholic countries are so gonna ban this movie; not that it has what it takes to become an international hit, imo. XD |
| HAPPY SCANS! Bringing the COOL in old school! |
| LIFE = COMPLETE |
| Awesome, had this one on my ptr for ages. |
| 4/21 That guy/gal may have been on to something :O |
| Huh. It finally happened. I'm immediately sold for this. |
| Waaht? I didn't expect that to happen. I was thinking this series will get a 5 minute per ep series at most like all other comedy of this type. I really wish Thermae Romae would've gotten a better anime, not just cardboard cutouts talking also shocked, what is that in your signature? |

| I read the manga it was hilarious can't wait for the movie. xD |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Seems really interesting and funny, really looking forward :D |
 "Can you feel that hybrid rainbow?" |
| lol~ sounds interesting and different!! |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| sounds great. have to read the manga ASAP |
| Now I'm curious. |
| This manga is amazing, I am so excited it hurts |
 |
| heard this manga was really funny so we will see |
| Awesome! Will definitely watch this! |
 |
| I still cannot believe this. It's fantastic <3 Wonder how a movie will work, though. Sounds rather odd. And also, A-1 Pictures. Dammit. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| Super excited about this one |
 Waratte Oemashou Sore ha Chiisana Inori |
| By the author of Arakawa Under the Bridge. Applause, please. |
 |
| YES! Can't wait! Hopefully it does the manga justice. :D |
| I hope you have a lovely day ♥ヾ(๑❛ ▿ ◠๑ ) |
| Director worked on KyoAni titles and Idolm@ster? I'm in. |
 |
| Not SHAFT/MADHOUSE I'm a little bit disappointed |
| "In 2009, in a survey asking its respondents "which manga do you think is the most interesting?" in a pool of 6000, Kuso Miso Technique came at 11th, beating popular manga such as Gintama and Detective Conan." Wiki |
| I personally like the manga, but I didn't expect it to be animated since it could offend a lot of people. Either way, I'm looking forward to this |
 |
| I wanted to a TV adaption :( anyway so happy for this, looking forward to it than the garbage out these days |
| I've never read the manga so I went to the description for it and the first thing I see is a picture of Jesus and buddah chillin at a table xD Defiently watching |
| Finally, it was about time! Now we only need another season of Arakawa.... |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| Jesus Christ!!!! 0.0 I love the manga, it's incredible :D |

| Wow, didn't see it getting a movie. That's pretty awesome. Congrats to Nakamura Hikaru. |
| OMG YES |
 What "Adolescence" do you have? Do you remember "Childhood"? The irreplaceable one existed there. |
What if Jesus and Buddha were living on Earth in modern times? What if they shared an apartment in Japan? Saint Young Men is a humorous manga about the daily lives of Jesus and Buddha WUT.I might watch it... not. |

| According to Sankaku Complex, there should be a OAD episode bundled with volume 8 of the manga as well. |
| Awesome! |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| Not my type of anime...but might try :D |
| Oh this manga! I saw it somewhere once but never got the time to read it. Nice, i'm going to watch the movie instead now :) |
| Interesting. |
 |
| LOL. I want to read the manga! Damn that synopsis. XD |
| "What if Jesus and Buddha were living on Earth in modern times? " That's it. I'm hooked. Totally reading/watching this. |
