Ask an Otaku or a real anime expert about what other Christian-related series were ever made and the first that may come to mind is BABEL 2. But Babel 2 is not really "Christian". It may be "Christian related" but some could say that it kind of adds to scripture or takes scripture out of context. It's about a teen named Koichi who is an ordinary youth given extraordinary powers to fight a shadowy underworld of renegade demonic psychics. Hidden in a forgotten desert lies the remains of the Tower of Babel. As its successor, Koichi summons three guardians by telepathy and challenges Yomi, Leon and any other renegades brave enough to stand in his path. From what I recall the main differance between the history taught by scripture and what this anime says happened is that the Tower of Babel was actually being created for some alien that crashed on the Earth back then and he wanted to try to communicate with members of his race. Kind of sounds like what happened with the fallen angels getting thrown out of Heaven for their rebelion against God. They too crashed on the Earth after that. In the scriptures it teaches about how the tower was being built by some who wanted to try to find an easier way to get into Heaven which was impossible anyway. And some do think that the so called UFO sightings people used to claim to see years ago may of been nothing more than some stupid demons trying to confuse people. Anyway BABEL 2 aside from having past events that relate to events mentioned in the Bible, has little else in it that has anything to do with Christianity. The 1973 anime series lasted for only 39 chapters. And later in 1992 was remade as an OVA series that was much worse.
