They decide to share an apartment on Earth in Tokyo, but living among mortals in the 21st century is no cakewalk for the saintly duo... They may find it difficult to navigate modern Japanese living, but Jesus'' carefree attitude along with Buddha''s domestic qualities and maybe a few divine interventions will surely allow them to enjoy their new lives with peace and love.

"The seasons change, but the wise-guys of Tachikawa are still stumbling and punning their way through Japan! Traversing the earthly plains, digital and IRL, Buddha and Jesus learn about ramen, used clothing, and garbage collection--and in their infinite compassion, try in vain to protect the innocent bystanders of the Tokyo suburbs from the metaphysical shenanigans of their saintly entourage."--Back cover.
