* ''[[Kaitou Saint Tail]]'' is a Catholic schoolgirl, her base of operations is a Catholic church, her informant is an "[[Nuns Are Mikos|apprentice nun]]", and all the victims that she helps are also Catholic. Given that they're in a predominantly ''Shinto'' country, it's odd that no one seems to notice.
** Her informant is also blatantly breaking the rules of confidentiality regarding the confessional, which is something real clergy could get a ''lot'' of trouble for.
*** And nuns have no access to confessional secrets! Only male priests do and they can't even share them amongst themselves.
* In ''[[Sailor Moon]],'' Hino Rei, a Shinto miko, attends an all-girls Catholic school. Named T*A, an [[Expy]] of the former
** T*A possibly stands for Thomas Aquainus.
* ''[[Chrono Crusade]]'' is another [[Church Militant]] series set in the United States, which...sorta fits under this trope. [[Anime Catholicism|It's complicated]].
Line 168 ⟶ 167:
** An exception is Stella of ''[[CSI: NY]]'', who is apparently Orthodox—she makes the Sign of the Cross top, down, right, left (Catholic is top, down, left, right).
*** However, this was depicted as happening in a Catholic church.
*
* Likewise, Booth, the token Christian on ''[[Bones]]'', is Catholic, and holds a deep-seated dread of nuns. Somewhat justified in that the actor, David Boreanaz, actually is Catholic, and was raised Catholic and went to Catholic schools. Also justified in [[Nuns Are Spooky]].
** Booth is also an Irish name.
