Mari Amachi is a very devout Christian who transfers to Perfect Religion Academy. A school devoted to all religions of the world in effort to make it's students the next world leaders in religion. Her friend Saori is kidnapped by the Black Buddha cult; a group who wishes to take away religious freedom though force and brainwashing. Mari prays to God for help but Buddha answers the call, instead! Mari aspires only to help her friend and she is transformed into Butt Attack Punisher Girl Gotaman. Between fighting bad guys, making a deal with Buddha, and wearing scandalous costumes, is it more than Mari can take?
Writing
The premise commits harder than it has any right to.
Costume
Mari's 'battle armor' is a deliberate middle finger to modesty.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Released during Japan's 'OVA boom' when direct-to-video anime could get wildly experimental with religious imagery that TV networks would never touch.
Director Iku Suzuki mostly worked in comedy series like 'Kyattou Ninden Teyandee'—this explains the tone whiplash between genuine religious commentary and butt puns.
