Anime Souryo To Majiwaru Shikiyoku No Yoru Ni

Okay, let's talk about something potentially scandalous: anime romance. And specifically, that one anime. You know, the one with the monk?

I’m talking about Souryo to Majiwaru Shikiyoku no Yoru ni… (My Priest, My Love). Yes, that one.

Unpopular Opinion Incoming!

Here's the thing. I kind of…get it? Don't get me wrong, the premise is wild. A girl reuniting with her childhood friend who is now a monk. Then, things get spicy.

I know! It sounds crazy. But hear me out.

Forbidden Fruit, Anyone?

There's just something about the forbidden romance trope. It's like, "Oh no, we shouldn't! But...maybe we should?" It's classic storytelling. Even if it involves a priest.

The tension! The stolen glances! The sheer audacity of it all! It's undeniably entertaining.

Maybe I’m just a sucker for drama. Or maybe I’m just fascinated by characters going against the grain.

The "He's Hot" Factor

Let's be honest, anime characters are designed to be attractive. Even the monks. They draw them so pretty. And then the drama starts.

Suddenly, we're questioning our morals. Is it wrong to be attracted to a fictional religious figure? I say, it’s FICTIONAL!

Anime artists knows what they're doing. They're playing with our emotions. And, dare I say, succeeding.

Guilty Pleasure? Maybe.

I'm not saying I'm going to start frequenting temples looking for romance. But I can appreciate the escapism. A little bit of spice is good for the soul.

It's the same reason we watch reality TV. We love the drama. We love the messy relationships. We love to judge, just a little.

"Sometimes you just want to watch something ridiculous and enjoy the ride."

And Souryo to Majiwaru Shikiyoku no Yoru ni… definitely delivers on the ridiculous. And the ride.

So, Am I Alone?

Am I the only one who finds this anime strangely captivating? Probably not. There's a reason it exists. Someone out there greenlit this project.

There are probably thousands, if not millions, of people secretly watching. We just need to admit it to ourselves.

It's a guilty pleasure. Own it! Life is too short to pretend you only watch highbrow cinema.

The Takeaway

Look, I'm not advocating for anything illegal or unethical. It's just an anime. It's entertainment.

But if you've ever found yourself drawn to a character who’s "off-limits," you might understand the appeal of Souryo to Majiwaru Shikiyoku no Yoru ni…

So, grab some popcorn, suspend your disbelief, and enjoy the show. Just don't tell your mom I told you to.
