not sure Westerners are in a place to criticize given that we love to thoughtlessly appropriate Hindu/Buddhist imagery all over the place in our culture

personally I love this aspect of Evangelion because it makes me examine my own orientalist biases

The anime "Haunted Junction" is fun in this regard.

The main characters are the son of Buddhist monk, a Shinto shrine priestess, and the son of a Christian minister; they protect their school from spiritual dangers.

If an eastern monk can be a D&D class, then why not Christian minister?
