Yep. There is a very pragmatic streak in some branches of Buddhism, and a great deal of wackiness in others.

How can this series be almost a year old? It seems only a little while ago I was seeing the first thing from it...

Oh, I love the contrast of this with the one with Caper and Beggar So! (Um. The Four Maras, that is.)

And the ending made me giggle. ^_^

Yay!
