In a surprising twist, a former JP Morgan Chase employee is now venturing into the world of anime. Jason Moody, along with a team of experienced veterans, is working on creating a new Biblically-inspired anime show called “Gabriel And The Guardians.” Who would have thought that the Bible and Japanese animation would come together? This is certainly a unique combination!

Moody’s passion for anime and storytelling led him to create random anime characters and short stories for his kids. And guess what? They loved it! His daughter even said, “This is a show about the Bible that I would actually watch.” Well, it seems like Moody struck gold with his idea.
Now, three years later, Moody and his partner, David Cunningham, are pushing to turn their drawings and stories into a full-fledged anime show with the help of Angel Studios. You may remember Angel Studios for bringing “Sound of Freedom” to the big screen. They’re known for their exceptional work, so the “Gabriel And The Guardians” team is in good hands.
But don’t expect this show to be a Bible study session. Moody and Cunningham made it clear that while the show draws inspiration from the Bible, it’s not going to be a word-for-word retelling. They don’t want to beat viewers over the head with a message, unlike what Disney has been doing lately. Yes, that’s right, Disney has become a woke company that cares more about pushing an agenda than telling good stories. Kudos to Moody and Cunningham for recognizing that storytelling should come first.
Albert Moore, who spent 14 years at Disney, has seen firsthand how the company’s focus on messaging over storytelling has hurt their creativity. He knows that visuals may be important, but without a compelling story, it’s just propaganda. And that’s not what “Gabriel And The Guardians” aims to be. They want to tell captivating stories that resonate with audiences of all ages.
And their commitment to storytelling has paid off. The show has already passed Angel Studios’ rigorous focus group process and is one of only nine projects approved out of countless submissions. Can you believe it? That’s quite an achievement. Plus, they managed to snag some big names in the animation world, like Johnny Yong Bosch and James Arnold Taylor, to be part of the project. Impressive!
“Gabriel And The Guardians” is all about finding your identity and seizing your destiny. It explores the idea that who we become is shaped by the choices we make. It’s a powerful concept that will undoubtedly resonate with viewers. This show has the potential to be a game-changer in the world of animation.
If you want to support the creation of “Gabriel And The Guardians,” you can express your interest on their website. Let’s show Hollywood that we want more shows that prioritize storytelling over pushing an agenda. It’s time for a breath of fresh air in the world of entertainment, and “Gabriel And The Guardians” might just be the breeze we need.
