Jesus and Buddha decide to take a vacation together and pick Japan. They wind up sharing a place together in an apartment building run by a senior citizen that's so scary that both quiver in her presence. There's also a trio of bratty kids who want to poke Buddha's third eye and think he's an alien.
There's no plot really in the movie; it's just sketches of everything from a dead-on parody of Disneyland to Buddha trying to teach Jesus to swim(and discovering that Jesus is quite a fraidy cat of water) to being in a festival and Buddha trying to pick up a cake for Jesus on Christmas without letting on a clueless Jesus that it's his birthday.
I love the bromance too. Jesus is the more energetic one who's fine living in the current world, while Buddha, to his nature, always looks for the cheapest way to buy something like a grandma, whether it's tissues or daikon radish. The only complaint that I have, is that I felt that there's probably more to this that's in the manga and unless you've read the manga, you'd probably would get the joke.
Otherwise? This needs a series for real. Too bad that no one in the US/West will probably license this for fear that the religious nuts will cry for their heads. However, it's a nice portrayal of both Buddha and Jesus; for the religious, there's absolutely NOTHING offensive.
