章 99: Japanese Jesus

Apparently Jesus didn't get crucified and it was his brother who took his place. Thanks to his brother's sacrifice, he was able to escape to Japan and married a lady named Miyu. He even had children and died a death of old age (~110 years old). Two crosses were built in the village of Shingo where he died, one for him and one for his brother. The villagers celebrate "Christ Matsuri", something similar to our Christmas. During "Christ Matsuri", they also sing some songs that have an unknown meaning but sound similar to Hebrew. Jesus' descendants, the Sawaguchis are actually Buddhists and have a star as their family symbol.
