    - Gabby is Jonah's guardian-angel, and Gabriel, the messenger of God. Jonah is the one who was swallowed by a whale, a creature much larger than himself, much like a child could be "consumed" by an adult, as punishment for not proselytizing.
    - 18:30 - The skull represents death and the "peculiar hat" is a halo, so it's representative of Azrael, the angel of death, and snakes are representative of the loss of innocence and being evicted from paradise.

      Jonah preached. He was so terrified of the evil reputation of the people he was supposed to preach to that he _tried_ to run away, but the whale brought him to the city anyway, so he decided to just get it done.
      The prophet Jonah's _real_ problem was that _after_ he preached, the people actually _listened_ to him and _renounced_ their evil ways, and he ended up getting all bent out of shape when God called off the destruction of the city.

    I see Angel Hare very differently apparently. I dont see this as horror, definitely has dark moments but not horror. I see someone who had a extremely rough childhood finding comfort in a character that is trying to help him find his way. It's kind of cute in the end. Now if we get more to this series that might change but as it stands now it's not horror to me.

    I'd like to think the last thing Worst Dad saw was this effing adult sized cartoon rabbit glaring at him when he rounded a corner. At least in my mind it's a lot funnier if she didn't use her human form when she took out the trash. It was very important for Jonah to have an alibi first of course since 'A cartoon bunny just ended daddy' wouldn't really be a claim that would hold water.
    It reminds me of that old show 'Tales From the Darkside'

    This is my favorite Analog Horror because of how oddly wholesome it feels. I also like the more subtle take on horror - the real evil is a sadly all-too uncommon issue, while the mysterious force is actually a benevolent one seeking to protect an abused child by any means necessary.

  • @HardCodedGaming
    @HardCodedGaming 8 месяцев назад +153

    Great analysis, but I will gently counter the notion that it was bad for Jonah to focus on Gabby herself over his past. If we were more led to believe that "his version" of Gabby was just in his head, I'd more agreeable to the idea that he was choosing comfort over truth, but the whole crux of the series is that she is a real entity, and she needed help.

    • @sabresister
      @sabresister 8 месяцев назад +30

      I’d also say that, given the pretty obvious hints from the first season, Jonah probably has a fairly good idea of what happened, and at this point what’s done is done and it would be more worthwhile to just, move on from it. And it’s not to say that he won’t ever come back to it now that Gabby is safe and he has more freedom to process it.

    • @MmeCShadow
      @MmeCShadow 8 месяцев назад +23

      I think it might also loop back to 'somebody gave their life to save yours' from the Easter episode. He was basically confronted with the choice of sacrificing his past in order to save Gabby in the present and was willing to not only give up the search, but give up his memories of her (and thus his motivation to learn about his past at all) in order to save her.

    • @andyreacts

      THIS. She's a friend. She helped him. So why is it a bad thing he focussed on helping her? Makes no sense declaring that "emotionally dependent" as if that is a bad thing. So if I have to choose between helping a friend who is in danger or gaining some knowledge its better to choose the latter?? Not in my reality. I would always choose helping my friend.

I can't imagine how much more it would've meant to me if Gabby or any protective force was able to speak to me. The closest to that for me was Mr. Rogers. The only gentle man I've ever known. I would hug my TV watching him, wishing more than anything I could be in the TV with him...fuck, tearing up again. 😥

      @randomjunkohyeah1 9 месяцев назад +36

      Even then, honestly only about 10% of that first season seems to really be going for an outright “horror” tone, which is honestly really refreshing. We have _plenty_ of series in this medium where the creator(s) attempt to cram every single second with spoopy stuff, or at least building up to it. For the core of it to be just genuinely heartwarming, albeit with an undercurrent of mature complexity? That’s something I’ve hardly seen at all.

      @@thatkingdomheartsguy9615 it’s more that Jonah was freaking out at him, than anything about Zaggy himself. It was the atmosphere, more than anything else. Gabby was somewhat ominous, but that was largely due to genre conventions, while Jonah’s impressions of Zaggy naturally colored our perception of him.
      Jonah himself never thought to frame Gabby as anything other than benevolent, but not only narrative conventions, but Jonah *himself* put Zaggy into question, and, based on him being correct about Gabby, we are encouraged to trust his own perception of events.

    I don't think Jonah rejected all that Gabby taught him. What she was first and foremost doing was trying to help him. Now what he is first and foremost doing is trying to help her.
    If that means he's become "emotionally dependent" on her, then a friend helping another friend or a mother helping her child means the same and I have no problem with it.
    In psychology there are many professionals who don't think endlessly looking into the past is not necessarily helpful to solve the present feelings and traumas. Rather dropping the focus on thought and facing the actual present feelings without any story can allow them to let go.
    I would always choose rescuing a friend over gaining some knowledge.

    Have to admit I was skeptical of the series at first when it turned out to just be another "creepy haunted tape exposes severe child abuse" thing but... I see why it needed to be like that. The story needed to be basic and familiar so people would understand the tropes quickly and realise the actual subversion later on.

  • @antifagoat6591
    @antifagoat6591 5 месяцев назад +6

    I'm not saying you're "wrong" about any of your character interpretations. Art is meant to be interpreted and this is clearly art. However, I had a couple different takes on Zag and Jonah that may have to do with my biblical knowledge. I'm not a Christian, but I was raised that way and I'm pretty deep into Abrahamic esotericism as a neopagan these days:
    The reason Zag is a pragmatist isn't because he's of a more "modern" mindset. It's because he's an angel that was involved in the Old Testament story of Moses and the burning bush (I had to look that up, but the significance is still there). Since he's much less known than Gabriel (who Gabby is named for), he would need to be uncovered "behind the books." This would also explain why "Fran" was not aware of Wreath of Life. It's a group that's focused on the New Testament rather than the Old Testament. Gabriel is a more prominent angel in New Testament lore, most notably where he is the messenger that Jesus has been born, and is a guardian angel for mothers and children. Zagzagel is not only more cryptic than Gabriel, but his role is to give Moses hidden knowledge to help liberate his people. Sounding familiar? Zag represents the older aspects of the religion where compassion and love was less emphasized than simply doing the right thing under God's orders. His job was to give knowledge, not comfort, and the image of a burning bush is both familiar and frightening, like his angel hare form.
    As for Jonah's "regression," it all ties into the theme of sacrifice. The Old Testament is a collection of stories about the Hebrews' survival. The New Testament is about the final painful sacrifice of Jesus so that the old ways of animal sacrifice and sacrament were no longer necessary -at least that's how most Christians see it. Jonah is tempted to uncover more about his past by his inner demons and maybe he would gain more as an individual through that discovery (this is what Francis was talking about), but to do so would be missing the forest for the trees. "Angel Gabby" can now be used to help children all around the world at any time through the internet, but instead she's trapped by all the childhood memories that Jonah's tapes have preserved forever, unaware of the hidden knowledge (to her) of the internet. Instead of holding onto his past, Jonah sacrifices that wish to know what happened to him, and in doing so he becomes a true ally to the guardian angels' cause. It's more important for Gabriel to be able to help other kids in need and for Zagzagel to get back to revealing hidden knowledge through the internet than it is for our protagonist to delve deeper into his past. He's "spreading the good word" by sharing "Angel Gabby" and "Wylde Hare" with the world.
    If you were wondering what the deal is with Francis, this is probably because the Saints are believed by many to have direct communication with the divine. Saint Francis would have spoken to angels, and he is the patron Saint of the animals. I'm not sure what Fran is supposed to represent if she is an older entity (the Old Testament is a sausage fest that constantly reminds us of how women were property in ancient Israel) but she certainly seems to remember Francis in "Wylde Hare," implying that she is also an angel. The emphasis on female angels is ironic, because angels are specifically "sons of God" in the original mythos. I guess they could be genderfluid beings? (lol)

    @DrizzyDoggo 8 месяцев назад +10

    I can't say how much I love Angel Hare for whatever reason. I do like that it doesn't feel like a horror even though it's categorized as an Analog Horror. It feels peaceful and like a whole different thing. It reminds me almost of the feeling I got when I first listened to Tales From The Gas Station when it was narrated by MrCreepypasta. The transition between in the Gas station, creepy, confusing and hilarious, to the detective route they went to after a while and branched off into a whole different story but included many characters from the original. Even though they are nothing alike, they just give me the same feeling and I really, REALLY, love it.
    I also understand that the detective story was a side thing and not really apart of the main story from what MrCreepyPasta has narrated it, but they felt similar, and I could tell they were the same universe.

    One person said and I’m conflicted on either wanting it or not to happen is this.
    “If the series does continue then the final act should be about the company who made Angel hare go after Jonah.”
    This would be really interesting and Dark, but not too dark to betray the overall tone of the series. It would also be a nice subversion that Gabby and the others try to save Jonah from them considering he and his mother are witnesses to their creation and also probably know about the missing father and use it against them.
    That being said I think the series ended fine and if there is no more then I’m fine with it, I just wanted to post that quote there cause it interested me.

    I think what brought the series unto perspective was the mechanic of live broadcast essentially bringing the characters to life or connecting them to the lives if the children watching. It was a great inversion of the episode kf Angel (the Buffy spinoff) with demon mullets sucking life force from children (that cold open spooked me as a kid).
    From what Gabby said about hearing the calls for help suggests that the stream viewrs, the "chat," are having individual one on ones with Gabby as well. Jonah maybe wasnt the only child watching the brosdcasts who had a tailored experience, but his situation meant platitudes wouldn't be enough and Gabby had to get very involved.

I actually got emotional in the end. Although it went in a direction I was not expecting and I feel they could have done so much more, I feel it told a good story and wrapped itself up neatly. I did feel like the turn away from Jonah finding the truth to just finding Gabby was kind of abrupt but I like how you related that to how easy it can be to kind of wander away from confronting trauma when facing it head on.

Its specifically noted that angels dont HAVE forms. Humans and animals are material, angels arent. Theres no "true form" or "biblically accurate" form. A cartoon rabbit with wings is as "biblically accurate" as a bunch of wheels with eyes.

    i personally don’t see jonah choosing gabby over remembering his own past as a regression in his character - i see it as a maturation. oftentimes in people with severe childhood trauma, especially those who have developed dissociative amnesia to cope with it, it’s strongly recommended to not go opening up unlabeled boxes in the mind, so to speak. the choice between knowing and getting gabby back is a difficult one on its face. wouldn’t knowing obviously be better? but sometimes accepting trauma means accepting that you won’t know everything, that you’ll never truly understand the depth of what happened. in this way, choosing to get gabby back is jonah choosing to keep the lessons he was taught that kept him safe, and eventually using his experiences as a way to help other people in need

    I think the easter episode also mirrors the story of the easter celebration in the bible. Gabby being absent after talking about the preparations for easter could represent her going through the same cycle as Jesus does, dying and being resurrected after three days.
    Granted, she is gone for about six days, not three, and she doesn't seem to return, but rather ascend? Maybe I am just spitballing, but still.
    Also Francis offers her three eggs, all which are not what she wanted / the way she wanted them to be.
    Might be a bit hamfisted but it could be about the denial of Peter. Peter, arguably Jesus' most devout followers denies that he knows him three times to authorities.
    Additionally: Francis always wears a black gown and in European fables, the Badger often represents a man of faith. The cassock being black and white and Badgers having black and white fur has been connected in stories and fables, to the point where Brother Took in the Disney Robin Hood story is a Badger (just not that well represented). Just thought that was neat :D

    I would agree with the case 5 analysis if it wasn't one little thing. GABBY IS A REAL PERSON. Imagine he said that the truth was more important than a person being potentially in danger. It would make him seem saelfish and that he only cares about himself. Jonah sacrifices his disire for the truth to help someone.

    I feel like the first 1-5 eps was very interesting but everything else after that fell flat. The music, the silly dialog text explaining Jonah's feelings and what he's going to do, the weird addition of the stream situation near the end....it was to much. They really had something with the premise of it but all this extra stuff ruined it for me. Felt all over the place.

  • @bugjams

    I was very invested in this series for the first 5 or 6 episodes. Cant say I'd recommend the whole thing, though, unless you're into somewhat-cheesy mascot horror or fanfic-style writing.
    My main critique of it (which may be entirely misplaced, more on that in a bit) is that the videos themselves don't feel like what someone would make about found footage. Between the thumbnails, cartoon-y editing, and silly music, I can't suspend my disbelief to trust that Noah is making these videos _himself_ regarding what he found. If he is, he's very... erm, artsy about it, and if he isn't, then I think I'm misunderstanding the premise of the series entirely (this is the "more on that").
    Rather than an actual found-footage series like Marble Hornets or Candle Cove, it seems to be doing more of a theatrical play/drama thing, where the plot device for introducing the charafters just happens to be found-footage. But after a few episodes, the mystery of how the footage was found, or how it's alive, seems to not be of importance to the narrative. Rather, you're simply supposed to enjoy the characters and the adventure they're on.
    I suppose my real gripe, then, is that it didn't establish very well how serious it's supposed to be. Is it theatrical and silly? Or is Jonah's childhood abuse supposed to be genuinely disturbing? Once Zagg arrives and Gabby disappears, it feels like the whole theme of childhood neglect/trauma is tossed to the back - not as important as finding Gabby, or using some nonsense tape-editing, livestreaming magic (i still don't know exaclty what happened there?) to put Zagg in another series. The [spoilers] reason Gabby was missing being that she's fragmented over the modern internet also felt, I dunno, a bit cliché.
    It feels like this series wants to be too much, and can't pin itself down to any one theme. Is it a slow-burn found-footage horror, or a silly theatrical romp with whimsical problems that get solved within 2-3 episodes? It seems to have a foot in both doors, and as such, kinda falls flat on both ends for me.

    • @bc1284
      @bc1284 8 месяцев назад +9

      Gabby explicitly introduces herself as Angel Gabriel to Jonah in the home vcr recording of the first episode. So at minimum Gabby is either an aspect of the Angel Gabriel. The archangel associated with being the announcer of god’s will. (Announced the birth of Christ to the shepherds, announced to Joseph and that Mary was beating gods child, and announcing to Mary she would be carrying Christ. Gabriel is the angel with the trumpets that announce the unsealing of gods wrath on the book of revelation.
      Either Gabby is Gabriel, an aspect of Gabriel acting as a guardian Angel to children through this medium, or an entity that is not an Angel but who understands the symbolic usefulness of posing as Gabriel to act as a protector of children.
      If gabby isn’t an actual angel then gabby is a paranormal entity who’s clear intent is the protection of children. Even if that form of protection is helping them commit violent acts to protect themselves, helping them learn how to craft slaves and enacting supernatural events in reality to cover up for the children so their actions will not haunt them into adulthood.
      If gabby isn’t Gabriel then but instead just a being posing as Gabriel then I think at the very least her intentions while not nonviolent are in the interests of protecting children. And if she is Gabriel she is using her position as the announcer of gods will to act as through abused children in a way to evoke gods wrath on abusers.

    I strongly disagree with your judgment of Jonah's regression of character development. Rejecting what she's taught him? Dependence? You've completely missed the core of her teachings. Faith, loyalty, friendship, dedication. She's his friend, she was there in his darkest hour, and now she needs his help. He has plenty enough of evidence she's not a figment of his imagination, but a living, feeling being and something's most definitely wrong. Are you a LaVeyan Satanist to boil down his motives for finding her to his personal desire for comfort? To claim no act ever is selfless and noble, that they all are done for selfish desire of feeling good about oneself? No, he develops and grows, giving up on the pointless quest to satisfy his own curiosity and dig up memories that no longer impact his life, and sacrificing himself to aid his best friend. You've also seen the first echo of this back when he visited his mother and chose not to confront her about his findings to spare her the pain of reliving these events. He grows up, shifting from egocentric desire to find out for own benefit to altruistic wish to help his friend.

    I regret that I can't stretch my suspension of disbelief for this one. The tweening on Angel's ears was *literally* the first thing I noticed, dating it to the 00s at the earliest. It could pass for a Weebl Stuff or Happy Tree Friends-era Flash animation. The VHS and Flash era overlapped, but it really seems to insist this was a 80s or 90s era analogue cartoon.
    The problem is that the sort of cheap animation styles used by these old cartoons would downplay the genuine skill of the animators - their skills are basically at a professional level. Limiting the number of individual cels, repeated animation loops, using still shots or hiding mouths and hands to avoid animating them, or even moving cels by hand during monologues were all common. Backgrounds were often recycled or completely blank. All of these are pretty much unnecessary these days, since composition doesn't require physical composition any more. Besides that, the consistency of colour and fine lineart are definitely the biggest issues; sampling areas of paint from old cartoons for flats might help, and setting the line width dynamics to have a minimum size of 20-50% would reduce the level of detail to a more realistic degree.
    They made an effort beyond the VHS filters - attempting inconsistent line width, slight shadows from the cel, sometimes letting animations look jerky by avoiding tweening (on the wings), and the colour palettes are all pretty great. They also definitely improved over time at imitating old styles with Detective Zag.
    I really hope they *do* work on a 2000s or 2010s-style series. AH as a design could have come *directly* from one of those gory Newgrounds animation which traumatised a generation of Zoomlennials. Hoping to see more from these creators either way.
