Internet responds to Luce, the Vatican’s new anime girl mascot

Luce has taken the internet by storm despite only being around for two days, with tons of fan art and memes spreading across social media.

Luce has clearly achieved her goal of reaching the global youth, as Catholics and even some nonbelievers resonate with the hopeful message Luce wanted to spread.

Particularly healthy artists like Diva, who posts the daily webcomic Little nuns posted their own drawing of Luce leading a parade of ducks.

There is also Ironlily, who regularly posts art for their OC Christian order Ordo Mediare.

Of course, Japanese artists also took notice of the anime-inspired mascot designed by Simone Legno, co-founder of tokidoki.

Of course, the memes write themselves when she literally has the power of “God and Anime” on her side.

Of course, all is not well in Luce’s world; people angry at the Catholic Church is a story that spans several millennia. Many self-proclaimed “tradcaths” consider Luce to be some sort of demonic dog whistle for “Lucifer.” While it is true that both names have the Italian root for ‘Light’ (Lucifer means ‘Light Bringer’ in Latin), that is where the similarity ends. Other critics are just angry that Luce is a cute anime girl rather than an imitation of a Renaissance painting.

As for the upcoming Catholic anniversary, the church is also trying to reach the youth by canonizing the first “Gamer” saint. Earlier this year, the Vatican announced plans to canonize Carlo Acutis, a young man credited with several miracles after his death. During his lifetime, Acutis donated games to children through the Order of Friars Minor Capuchins
