Current Events > if you had to make a new a anime or manga

(+) Yeah! (+)

what idea would you use? Let's say you were trying to make the next big anime hit

Like maybe..... I had this idea once for Isekai (yes I know people are tired of Isekai) where a whole family is isekaied together but they each go to a different world. Mom, dad, brother and sister. One version of the idea I had was it would actually be 4 separate series, each devoted to a family member and then when each of those is concluded the family is reunited in a 5th show where they work together on a new quest

I see.......

That could run for 8 seasons maybe. And have 3 movies

A comedy / slice of life where everyone has a super power but there are no bad guys to fight so they just use them to make their ordinary life more convenient

Definitely something Monster Girl related... Don't know what genre it'd be though...

Mafia manga where da MC starts from da bottom and his goal is to be godfather

Dog Isekai. Dog dies saving someone on Earth and then does dog stuff as a human hero in a fantasy world. The dude would be chewing on skeletons on every episode.

That actually sounds cool

Star Trek: Digimon

When God created existence he had no idea what was going to happen. When he accidentally created suffering, he felt really bad. Now he employs a team of superheroes of all religions (and lack of) to end suffering and create utopia. He doesnt want to be worshipped anymore as he feels guilty. So instead of going by God, he goes by Guy. Cuz he just feels like a guy now.

This is the actual comic Im making

Isn't this essentially prophets plus a touch of Deism?

I had an idea for story (it could be an anime why not) where it is a fantasy world where every nation is kinda at war with each other, but their actions don't seem to make a lot of logical sense. Like wars are started and stopped seemingly at random, Kingdoms make odd decisions in terms of their laws and whatnot.

Our adventurers end up together because each one of them was tasked with "meeting heroes" by their respected kingdoms... at a specific place and time. They find out they are each from different Kingdoms, they were given this task with no other orders. From there the kingdom refuses to give them any orders and are stated that they would, "Know what to do"

The group decides to find out WTF is going on and they discover that each nation has been following guidelines from a secret like, National Tome, or whatever you wanna call it. These are insanely guarded secrets and it has led to all the prosperity that each nation has. You also find out the fallen nation from like, a thousand years ago, did not follow their own tome and disaster struck.

Ultimately the tomes have been a huge manipulation by Angels, more or less using the fantasy world you live in as a little... I dunno, kinda like a playset. The party discovers that within this Angel community is now a civil war and a faction who wants our fantasy world to have freedom and be welcomed into this larger civilization has been sneaking in and altering the tomes to unveil the truth, little by little.

You would also find out the Fallen Nation was basically nuked by the Angels when they chose to fall out of line as a means to ensure that their game would not stop.

I dunno, just a general outline of a narrative idea I had. Could work REALLY well for an anime/manga.

No idea what that is but maybe. Theres a lot more to my story but thats the basic premise. Its the opposite of deism tho. God never left, hes been constantly fighting with us since the beginning.

A girl is born with reality warping powers. As a child, her imaginations distorts the world and causes lots of chaos and destruction. In order to protect her and the world from each other, she is sealed into a pocket dimension where she can't affect the real world. As she grows older and stronger, she believes herself to be the damsel in distress locked away in a hidden realm, her powers eventually breach into the real world and causes others to believe she needs help and that they are the chosen warriors destined to free her and begin fighting to set her loose. They also gain superhuman abilities because she believes they have them, and that the people guarding her are evil so they have to act as villains in her story.

Three main characters, her as the unwitting victim not understanding the truth of the world. A guardian(villain) tasked with trying to keep her sealed away(to protect her and the world), and a "hero" cluelessly marching toward releasing her and threatening the entire world.

F-Rank Frank

Born to be the legendary hero, dreams to be your average jack-of-all-trades adventurer

He wants to be a normal adventurer because a grand hero really has no time to actually help people with smaller problems since he would be busy always dealing with huge stuff

I like your idea

Guy gets isekai'd into a fantasy world, but into the role and body of an average maid.

A manga creator frustrated his work he considers his magnum opus gets rejected by his publishers. If he cant come up with an idea people might want then hes out of the job. Feeling no matter what he does he just makes up the most asinine idea half baked idea ever, a slice of life where two morons criticize modern society. Somehow his publishers think its bold move and willing to give it a try. The creator half asses the project and somehow it becomes a culture phenomenon then later a global one. His fans are insane and take everything he writes in the story like its gods word. He tries to sabotage it every chance he gets.

Manga Title: Echo Rebirth
Genre:
Action Psychological Sci-Fi Mystery
Setting:
A near-future Japan rebuilt after a mysterious event called The Silence, which erased all sound for three years. Sound has returned but only to certain people called Resonants, who can manipulate frequencies to control matter, emotions, or even time perception.
Premise:
16-year-old Riku Hanabira wakes up after a coma and discovers he can "hear" echoes of people's memories through sound. He joins a covert group of Resonants, Echo Division, who investigate a rising wave of sonic crimes while trying to uncover what caused The Silence and why his memories of that time were erased.
Main Characters:
Riku Hanabira A quiet but sharp high-schooler with the rare ability of Memory Echo. Each sound carries fragments of the past that only he can interpret. Torn between uncovering the truth and preserving his sanity.
Yuna Saegusa A hotheaded Resonant who manipulates vibrations to create concussive blasts. Shes haunted by the memory of losing her brother during The Silence a brother Riku might unknowingly have met.
Dr. Ren Kujo The enigmatic leader of Echo Division. Calm, manipulative, and hiding the truth that The Silence might have been human-made and that he caused it.
Kai Itsuki Rikus childhood friend, now a member of a rival faction called Soundless Order, who believes the return of sound is a curse that must be reversed.
Themes:

• The fragility of memory and perception
• The cost of truth vs peace
• Sound as emotion and weapon
• Human identity in silence

Tone:
Think Tokyo Ghoul meets Erased with the style of Jujutsu Kaisen. Dark, psychological, and philosophical but with bursts of explosive, surreal action.
First Arc: Reverberation
Riku investigates a school explosion caused by a Resonant attack. Each clue he follows produces haunting auditory flashbacks whispering voices of people long dead. The deeper he listens, the more he realizes his own memories have been tampered with through sound.

A meta isekai about a dude dying and winding up in the Office Of MisPlaced Heroes (it OOMPH, like the sound that sends you there). It's a sort of office run by just a few people that sends people that died to new worlds to be heroes. They have actresses playing goddesses, costume and set designers that create the look of the afterlife for each newcomer, someone finding destinations for each person, crazy scientist that creates super powers for the person to be a hero. It's focused on the interworkings of the people at OOMPH, but with each episode having a new dead person. Kinda inspired by Death Parade but a lighter tone.

The story of a big fat dude who just goes around making people happy. Basically a mini series about kindness and positivity.

I started reading an Isekai that was a little unique, where the character wasn't ridiculously overpowered, but had to obtain scrolls to gain power. I can't remember the name of it, but it was 18+ so probably not best for me to mention its name even if I knew it. So I'd probably do something similar, as there are so many directions you can go with something like that.
