The Rebirth of Buddha (Buddha Saitan) is a new anime film sponsored by one of Japan's controversial religious organizations called Happy Science, and produced by Group TAC. It deals with Buddha's society-saving resurrection in a modern-day setting, with a story that follows a high school girl named Sayoko. She is in love with a reporter and wanted to become one herself, that is until said reporter kills himself by jumping in front of a train. Sayoko then sinks into a heavy depression and nearly kills herself too, only to be saved by a university student - Yuuki - who is on his way to meet someone who claimed to be Buddha on TV. Uh, yeah. The movie premieres in Japan on October 17, 2009.
