Contrary to scripture, a lot of Christian arguments conversations these days—including among believers—totally lack in humility. What’s the answer? Examples from the life of the Old Testament King Uzziah and everyone’s favorite demon slayer, Tanjirou, show us the way. Come listen in as Mike explains and also talks about his recent major live events involving Clue, cars, and college football on episode eight of The Power of God and Anime Podcast!
In the anime Eyeshield 21, what is the name of the Devil Bats’ tight end?

Do you sometimes feel discouraged, as if you’re not good enough to accomplish the big things you’d like to? Mike’s been there. So have some of the heroes of the Bible, including Moses and Gideon. And…maybe Sailor Moon’s Usagi Tsukino, too? Well, she at least serves as an example of someone who does incredible things despite her shortcomings—and God is able to do the same with us as well. Join Mike today as he chats about this topic, along with thoughts on Yakuza 4, on episode seven of The Power of God and Anime Podcast!
In Demon Slayer, the Hashira Tengen has three wives. What are their names?

We all struggle with temptation. But the rub isn’t simply in being tempted, but in how we react to temptation. Mike looks to Konosuba and Beast Tamer for very different reactions to sexual temptation, and then to the Bible to see how we should respond in any tempting situation. Plus, he gives his real anime origin story (it involves being a Soul Reaper…of sorts), talks about Cassandra Cain, and suggests that we should all eat fingers (wait) on episode six of the Power of God and Sukuna, er, Anime podcast!
In the series, Actually, I Am (also known as My Monster Secret), what is the name of the school’s demon principal?

Look, it’s not easy to ask others for help. Shame, pride, and all manner of obstacles get in the way. Deku and Vegeta know this intimately as major arcs for them and even their inmost character reveal a desire to go it on their own and not involve others. But what does scripture have to tell us about finding help in our struggles? Mike digs into this topic (while also explaining his real origin story, discussing his favorite series of the season, and more) on episode five of the Power of God and Anime podcast!
In Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid, what is the dish that Tohru is constantly trying to get Kobayashi to eat?

Do you feel influenced by the culture to act like those around you? Are you being persuaded to put away your faith and engage the world on its terms? You’re not alone—it’s a day and age where the culture around us speaks as strongly as ever. But Mike’s got you covered. He looks to Shirou Emiya and his stance during the Holy Grail War in Fate/stay night as an example of how to act when you’re being thrown about by something that contradicts your belief. Welcome to episode four of The Power of God and Anime Podcast!
In Spy x Family, what is the name of the first person we see Yor target as an assassin?

Welcome to episode three of The Power of God and Anime Podcast! Listen as Mike gives a third version of his story that sounds like Sailor Mo—no, it couldn’t be; discusses the cult episode of A Salad Bowl of Eccentrics; and shares his experience sharing the love of Christ with a co-worker rather than a false image of God that he had encountered. Come listen along!
In Azumanga Daioh, the students’ homeroom teacher is Yukari Tanizaki. What is the subject she teaches? (Since it’s different in the dub and sub versions, either answer is acceptable)

Statedogg is back! We’re happy to post the very first episode of a new podcast featuring Mike of Mike’s Geek World and formerly of the Tangle x Cast. When the team ended their run last year, they moved onto other projects—Kyuubikaze is taking a break from BtT as he endeavors onto new challenges in his life, Dennis continues to be our engineer for new podcasts, Paris and Eryn plan to launch a podcast this winter, and Mike is starting the “Power of God and Anime” podcast. In today’s introductory episode, he chats about Akira Toriyama’s passing, Evangelion and a holy fatherhood, and more. He also gives his first trivia question—feel free to drop your response after you listen to the episode!
In the Dragon Ball anime, how old is Bulma when the series begins?

Over the last year+, the Tangle x Cast team has shared their thoughts on life and faith while elegantly intertwining Christianity with anime in relatable and mindful ways. But this episode marks the end of this journey. We hope you enjoyed the episodes and that you’ll enjoy this final one, too, as Paris, Mike, Eryn, and Tyler (and Dennis a little, too!) share their memories from the previous 26 episodes. And stay tuned as well, because you haven’t heard the last of any of these wonderful folks here on Beneath the Tangles!
