I hope this is the right thread for this. I need everyone to read this!
I'm writing out our adventures we've had over the years in the RP section and hopefully make them into a manga, then into an anime.
What I need from all of you is some ideas to throw at me for some scenarios to make this series popular and demanding for audiences.
I want this series to be as popular as Bleach, Naruto, Kingdom Hearts, One Piece and others that have continued in the main stream of anime and manga for 10 years.
This can only be done with prayer, faith and hope, as well as all of us coming together with ideas and inspirations to keep this going and to have us captivate those who read our work.
This series has to be Christian orientated, as well as realistic, fantasy and dark. I don't want this to be a sugar coated, "feel good" series. Sure there will be comedic, fun and heart-warming moments, but there must be moments of dramatic heart-break, thrills, tension and suspense as well as some sad moments. The realism of the "slice-of-life" aspect to a manga/anime gives the reader/audience the feel of relativity.
This is the time guys and girls. We must start right away. I myself have had some fantastic dreams and I am willing to share them with you.
I have had dreams of magnificent fortresses and cities, dreams of characters I've never seen before, and some I've seen from other mangas and animes (possible crossovers), and even a dream about the end of time.
I am beginning to have a passion for this, the want to write out ideas and stories involving our characters with breathtaking art and scenery, along with characters from other mangas/animes like Bleach, Dragon Ball Z, Azumanga Daioh, Trigun, Full Metal Alchemist etc.
It would be like another version of Kingdom Hearts, only with Manga/Anime characters instead of Disney being involved.
I have found out over the years, from cartoons, dramas and movies, the involvement of crossovers is a marvelous genius today.
Four examples:
- The three CSI shows taking on one case was epic, and couldn't have been thought out any better.
- "Cartoon Heroes to the Rescue" back in the 1980's was an anti-drug cartoon movie involving Huey, Duey and Louie, Garfield, The Muppets, Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Winnie the Pooh, Slimer, Michelangelo the Ninja Turtle, and even Alf.
- Super Smash Brothers is a good example because of all the familiar game characters we all know and love in one giant battle. Having Solid Snake in Brawl was absolutely jaw-dropping. Loved it so much.
- The Kingdom Hearts franchise is something I don't even need to explain. Involving Final Fantasy with Disney is a stroke of Genius.
With all of this said, I believe you all can understand what I'm trying to push here. This is the perfect opportunity to make a difference in Manga/Anime and show that we as a Christian nation can make something like Bleach, Kingdom Hearts or Full Metal Alchemist etc. and make it into a super, main stream series.
I need everyone's help in this! Please take this to heart and find a way to help me make this dream into a reality!
Thank you so much in advance!
