The film's central narrative focuses on a fantasy adventure involving the protection of knowledge and the fight against magical threats, rather than engaging with specific political ideologies. It balances themes of tradition, individual responsibility, and the value of learning without promoting a dominant political viewpoint.
The series features a visibly diverse ensemble cast, including an Asian male character in a main role, without explicitly recasting traditionally white characters. Its narrative centers on adventure and fantasy, maintaining a neutral to positive portrayal of traditional identities rather than offering explicit critiques.
The show includes Cassandra Cillian, a main character, who is canonically bisexual. Her bisexuality is mentioned in a casual conversation, indicating past relationships with both men and women. This aspect of her identity is presented factually and without judgment, serving as incidental representation rather than a central theme or source of conflict.
The show features Eve Baird, a highly trained former NATO agent, who consistently engages in and wins close-quarters physical fights against multiple male opponents, including cultists and various magical adversaries.
When Buddhist concepts or artifacts appear, such as those related to spiritual enlightenment or specific relics, they are presented as real and potent forces within the show's magical world. The narrative treats these elements as sources of wisdom or power, maintaining a respectful tone without any negative implications for the religion itself.
The series frequently incorporates Christian mythology, biblical artifacts, and angelic beings as real and powerful elements within its magical universe. While individual characters may misuse these, the narrative often aligns with virtues associated with the faith and portrays faith itself as a potent, often benevolent, force.
Hindu deities, myths, and concepts are occasionally featured as actual, powerful entities or magical principles. The show integrates these elements into its fantastical plots with a sense of wonder and respect for their power and significance, avoiding any negative or dismissive portrayals of the religion or its traditions.
Similar to Christianity, Jewish lore and artifacts, such as the Ark of the Covenant and Golems, are depicted as tangible, powerful magical realities. The narrative treats these elements with a sense of awe and respect for their origins, integrating them into the show's fantastical framework without any negative portrayal of the faith or its followers.
The show introduces new characters and continues existing ones from the movie franchise without altering their established genders. No canonical or historically male or female characters are portrayed as a different gender.
The show "The Librarians" is a spin-off from "The Librarian" TV movie series. All main and recurring characters either maintain their established race from the prior films or are new characters created for the series, thus not having a pre-existing race to swap.
