Saint☆Young Men

A gentle, silly hangout comedy where sacred figures fuss over everyday chores, making the mundane feel quietly funny and oddly cozy.

The comedy often involves jokes about Christianity, Buddhism, and all things related, as well as the main characters' attempts to hide their identities and understand modern society in Japan. This is a 2 episode OVA preceding the movie of the same name.
