It looks like a "1" rather than a christian cross.
Besides, if it actually was a christian cross it would be put upside down, making her a satanist.

The plot thickens...

In Japan books are read upside-down, remember?

I still think it doesn't look anything like a cross.

If you really want to know, though, I guess you could shoot someone a PM and they'll make something up.

And the majority religion in Japan is Shinto followed by Buddhism, which makes it soooo unlikely to be a Bible at all anyway.
I don't really know, but I doubt anyone in Japan is a christian (no matter the branch) if none of their parents are foreign.

Actually "cross lover" religion was brought to Japan by a bunch of westerners (not sure if european or american) and so there ARE christians there and I mean true japanese christians, but since Shintoism and Buddhism are the main religions that means there aren't that many christians there.

It was probably Europeans. My guess would be the portugese as they seemed to be the ones to first get involved with Japan (albeit mostly selling them guns)

The Portuguese did indeed introduce Christianity to Japan during the 1500s. That said, the Edo period and the closing of Japan in general saw Christianity banned and harsh persecution of Christian Japanese (due to Tokugawa Ieyasu's judgement that the religion's focus on God as the highest authority harmed his attempts to consolidate power, and theatened the stability of Japanese society), which hampered the religion's growth in the country even long after Commodore Perry's arrival in Japan in 1850 and its subsequent reopening to foreign influence.

There are around 3 million current self-identifying Christians in Japan, coming to around 1-2% of the overall population.

An excellent documentary series covering this (and the Shogunate period in general) is Empires: Japan - Memoirs of a Secret Empire.

Can someone explain this to me? Seriously, was that kid in the classroom panoramic based off Lelouche from Code Geass? I swear to God, if it ain't I'm gonna flip out.

13- OC (inspired by Aura's avatar)

Even if she is an original character, #13 still looks a lot like Kitahara Aya from Onani Master Kurosawa.
