 What's up with CCP Ultraman Jesus?
 I've been eyeing this series for a while, but just don't get it. Is there a movie where the Ultraman family gets group crucified? Huh?

 Re: What's up with CCP Ultraman Jesus?
Look at the figure box directly under the window: Ultraman A (Ace) Episode 13
I haven't seen it myself, but there's a short write up of it on Wikipedia:
The Four Ultra Brothers are crucified on the planet Golgota by the Yapool. The Yapool send all five fake Ultra Signs to get them to gather at Golgota, where they find crosses with their names written on them. The temperature then drops precipitously, and they begin losing power. The Four give Ace their remaining power to go back to Earth, to defend it from CHOHJU Barabas. Ace protests, not wanting to abandon his brothers, but Ultraman slaps him to his senses, saying they will. After Ace leaves, the other four get sucked onto the crosses. However, Ace can't fight Barabas effectively, because the Yapools taunt him with images of his brothers stuck on the cross, threatening to finish them off. Meanwhile, Yapool then introduces Ace Killer, who sucks the Four Ultra Brothers of their Specium (Ultraman), Emerium (Ultra Seven), and M87 (Zoffy) energies, as well as the Ultra Bracelet (Ultraman "Jack"). Ace Killer uses these to destroy the Ace Robot for practice as the brothers look on helplessly. The upper brass at TAC send Hokuto to Golgota with a bomb to destroy the entire planet (and the Four Ultra Brothers with it), but Hokuto changes to Ace, destroys the bomb, gets energy from his Brothers to create the Space Q to defeat Ace Killer, frees his brothers, return to Earth, and destroy Barabas.

That wiki description reads like hieroglyphics. Amazing.

Eiji Tsuburaya, the creator of Ultraman (and director of much Toho madness) converted from Buddhism to Catholicism.
That may be partly responsible for the above weirdness...
