* AlternateCharacterInterpretation - Minor one that's PlayedForLaughs. All of Jesus water based miracles? They happened because he's afraid of water.
* HoYay: On one occasion, the pair are walking through the city when a girl, giving out pamphlets in the street, asks Buddha if he's a ''Christian''. He then remarks to Jesus (at least in the French translation), "I believe in you/I have faith in you, does that count?" This makes Jesus blush. A lot. He replies something along the lines of "Don't say that in public, what will people think?" Possibly a CallBack to the time Jesus prays to Buddha at the shrine for New Year's (and Buddha prays to ''himself'', which basically works like a cosmic fridge note), but as per RuleOfFunny it's basically treated like an excessive public display of affection.
* FridgeBrilliance: Although the series' depiction of Jesus may be considered by Fundamentalist Christians as blasphemous, most Christians find it hilariously accurate, as the core concept of Christian faith states that Jesus incarnated himself as a human in order to feel human pain and weakness, as a preparation for his great sacrifice.
** The series's use of JesusWasWayCool tropes tends to underscore this; he's a laid-back, OccidentalOtaku, Johnny Depp lookalike while the rare Christians who appear in the series tend to be TheFundamentalist. Overall it's really more of an AffectionateParody than a TakeThat towards anyone, and besides Christians are ''one'' half of the series.
