Harlockaticism (noun): A religion inspired by the anime hero and space pirate, Captain Harlock. Harlockaticism has only one singular belief: To swear an oath to fight for only what you believe in and to do it for no one's sake, only something that is deep in your heart.

The religion was founded by Universal Life Church Minister, Rev. Joseph D. Smith, D.D. Though Captain Harlock is a fictional character, the Harlockatics (or Harlockaticists) swear their oath in the name of Captain Harlock, and hold him as a heroic figure, (but not as a god nor someone to worship). As Captain Harlock would say, you shouldn't model yourself or your life after him, but rather the person you most want to be.

Pronounced: Harlock-atic-izm

Derived from: Harlock (surname, particularly of space pirate, Captain Harlock) + atic (forming nouns and adjectives) + ism (a distinctive practice, system, or philosophy)
"Harlockaticism helped me be myself and reminded me to always fight for what I truly believe in, as did Captain Harlock!" ~Rev. Joseph D. Smith, D.D.
