The Vatican in Rome has announced its official anime mascot for the 2025 Jubilee. I looked it up to make sure it was real. Her name is "Luce"—has she not the beauteous semblance?

quote:

Archbishop Rino Fisichella, the Vatican's chief organizer for the jubilee, described the mascot as part of the Vatican's goal to engage with "the pop culture so beloved by our young people."

The mascot will debut this week at the Lucca Comics and Games, Italy's celebrated convention for all things comics, video games, and fantasy, where the Vatican's Dicastery for Evangelization will host a space dedicated to "Luce and Friends."

It will be the first time that a Vatican dicastery participates in a comics convention. Fisichella, who serves as the the pro-prefect of the Dicastery for Evangelization's section for the new evangelization, said he hopes taking part in the convention "will allow us to speak to younger generations about the theme of hope, which is more central than ever in the evangelical message."

I’m lifelong RC.

SMALL GIRL? It’s a change from the norm, but still fits the pedophile motif.

There are a millions names and they pick one that’s sort of short for the devil. Outstanding work.

Portal is a tough place these days - mega churches got the cash but Islam got the virgins.

I get the idea, but this is a weird thing for the Vatican to be promoting. Can't they let Catholics around the world be the marketing arm of the church, which is kind of what Jesus intended in the first place?

Their heavenly rewarded bottles of wine have holes in them and their virgins don’t. Tread carefully in the portal.
