SERVEL: LET THERE BE ANARCHY – EPISODE 1 PILOT (VOLUNTEER)
ORIGINAL ANIMATED SERIES • FULLY SCRIPTED EPISODE 1 READY
SERVEL — Episode 1 (Pilot)
Servels are regular, everyday human beings living in modern society. They go to school, work jobs, walk the same streets as everyone else. What sets them apart is their unique concept of powers.. abilities that range from fire and gravity to nearly anything imaginable. These abilities have existed for centuries, almost as long as humanity itself, and Servels have quietly influenced countless historical events.
Over time, however, fear began to outweigh fascination. Governments and world leaders saw Servels not as people, but as potential threats. In the modern era, Servels are heavily regulated. The use of abilities requires licensing, and unregistered use can result in immediate consequences. Many Servels avoid using their powers at all, choosing to live cautiously to avoid drawing attention. Others are forced into hiding as the government actively hunts, captures, or eliminates those who refuse to comply.
The Security of Principal, or S.O.P., is a mobile task force founded in the 1900s with one clear mission: patrol the world, track down Servels, and bring them into custody — or wipe them out. They operate nationwide, with bases in every state, and can be deployed at a moment’s notice. Equipped with advanced counter-Servel technology, including paralysis devices and toxin-based weaponry designed to temporarily cancel abilities, the S.O.P. ensures that no Servel is ever truly safe. Once marked as WANTED, escape becomes nearly impossible.
Episode 1 (Pilot) sets the foundation for a long-term, story-driven series that will explore conflict, morality, rebellion, identity, and power in a controlled society. This is not a short project. it is intended to grow into a full-scale, ongoing series with deep world-building and character development.
I am currently looking to fill 9 serious roles to help bring this vision to life. This is volunteer work for the pilot episode, but I am fully committed to this project long-term, with the goal of building an audience and eventually transitioning into paid opportunities as the series grows. I am open to collaboration, ideas, creative input, and flexible workflows. As long as we maintain professionalism and commitment to quality. And of course have fun.
This is a serious project with long-term ambition. If you are passionate about storytelling, world-building, animation, voice acting, writing, editing, or production and want to be part of something from the ground up, this is your opportunity to help shape Servel from Episode 1 onward. Again. We'll have fun people. I'm extremely serious about this project.
Hey! I'm so glad so many people are submitting voices for the many different characters we have on the show! Seriously! 46?! That's amazing! There will be more voice acting roles coming to the role side.. so be on a look out for that! And sorry for going silent.. Life is busy.. phew! Anyway! I'd be happy to start looking at some more roles!
Forgot to Mention. Deadline might also.. shorten. It was that long because I wanted to see how to do this. But now that I got it down? It's gonna be shorten soon!
Hey! Sora here! I've been looking at the submissions and I'm so happy that so many people are willing to join us on the Journey of Servel. Seriously! It's amazing how many amazing talents there are, Keep em coming! Animators are mostly needed!

“To save something… you must first decide what deserves to remain.”
“Oh no… please don’t glare at me like that.” (soft chuckle under the breath) “I might mistake it for intimidation.”
Calm, intelligent, and emotionally restrained, Zack rarely raises his voice. He speaks with a quiet confidence and a heavy sense of conviction behind his words. Even in battle, he maintains composure, almost as if he has already accepted the consequences of the path he’s chosen.
Zack’s voice should sound calm, mature for his age, deeper, and emotionally layered.
"Live by your choices until the end. If you falter, everyone who believes in you will too."
"I'm not one to interrupt sentimental moments... but the S.O.P. are heading this way. If we want this mission to stay quiet, you need to start laying out the plan, Takano."
"You think power is something you show people? No. Power is something you use."
