* Kanzaki Kaori and Stiyl Magnus in ''[[A Certain Magical Index]]'', due to all of the [[Artistic License: Biology|biological liberties taken]] combined with the ensuing [[Your Mind Makes It Real]]. Granted, the science side in this series isn't any better...
* In all versions of ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]'', Ed and Al travels to a town where everyone except for the leader of the [[Corrupt Church]] runs on this trope - for example, blindly following a manipulative con artist, and when he disappears, going violent and destroying everything.
** The manga and Brotherhood series as a whole subverts the trope, however, as it takes Ed the entirety of the series to figure out the truth behind... erm... Truth.
* ''[[Simoun]]'' [[Deconstruction|takes this trope, puts it over its knee, gives it a paddling, whips it with chains, and throws its lacerated corpse in a ditch]]. The series' depiction of its one 'strong atheist' character's bitter, unhelpful, avaricious stupidity and almost palpable, reptilian sleaziness is... quite something. There ''are'' sympathetic non-religious characters, including one of the main romantic leads, but overall this is pretty much the anti-''[[Agora]]'' in its portrayal of religion.
