Ryōhō-ji (了法寺) is a Buddhist temple in Hachioji, Tokyo that was established in 1489 by Keiun Nicchō (啓運日澄) for his retirement. Although it's operations and architecture are what you would expect of a traditional Japanese temple, in 2009 a non-traditional signboard was installed with anime illustrations of Shinto and Buddhist deities, and the enshrined Shingo Benzaiten (新護弁財天) was given a modern anime look, in an attempt to create a more exciting atmosphere. In 2010 a theme song was released for Ryōhō-ji titled 'Tera zukkyun! Ai no Ryōhō-ji!' (寺ズッキュン!愛の了法寺!).
