Need help with manga
 
My friend (firefly) and I are making a manga and need some good ideas of what it should be about. Any ideas, so we know what people would like to read about. PLEASE WE'RE DUMB! thanx :D

I think that this would go in the Other Anime and Manga section. ^_^ I'll move it for you.

*moved*

Missingno Baby July 31st, 2004 8:15 PM

Well, depends, what do YOU want it to be about? What age appeal?
My manga will be on the net soon, as soon as i can buy a stupid scanner...

puni puni~

chunckymonkey July 31st, 2004 8:34 PM

I want it to be about anything, I'm just looking for ideas right now.

Kayleigh July 31st, 2004 8:41 PM

Hmm, anything? Well, it's best to make a decision on that before you start planning on anything else. ^_^; Maybe you could tell us what you plan on the target age group being. That would level out a lot of things, and make deciding on the plot much easier. Any kind of adult/older stuff, like cursing, etc...?

chunckymonkey August 1st, 2004 11:28 AM

14-19yrs old targeting age, some cursing, some "love" stuff (not bad) lol, and as far as the location goes we have a few options:1) Hollywood,2)New York,3)Japan,4)Omish place(firefly's idea), 5)Germany.And if there are any other suggestions, please let us know. And for the location you can tell us a plot idea you have and well share some of ours.And we don't care if sounds stupid. Stupid ideas have funny results.

What I normaly do look at some items, then pick a couple, and then that's how I find how to make my manga. Or I read a couple stories and just put little details from the story and mix them together.

I hope I made sense.

chunckymonkey August 1st, 2004 7:59 PM

thanks for the good idea we'll try it out. Any other suggestions from anyone?

Ryoutarou August 2nd, 2004 8:05 AM

Well, what genre do you want it to have? Action? romace? sci-fi? it all depends on the genre...and what measurements are you going to be useing for it? Depends are you doing it at 30.dpi or 40?

Firefly August 2nd, 2004 10:16 AM

Monkey wants it to have a little bit of everything but mainly comedy.

Ryoutarou August 2nd, 2004 10:30 AM

Then i'd say maybe something like lupin or monkey punch or gto t***se are funny

Firefly August 2nd, 2004 2:27 PM

What is monkey punch? and do you have any ideas now?

Ryoutarou August 3rd, 2004 5:57 AM

Well this is monkey punch...commonly refered to as Lupin the third series 2

As for story you say you want comedy, but not what type there are hundreds of types of it...and since I dont know wqhat dpi your working at it's kinda hard to give any ideas.

chunckymonkey August 3rd, 2004 10:59 AM

whats dpi? We want haha comedy.

Firefly August 3rd, 2004 1:54 PM

Monkey i think dpi is dots per inch but i could be wrong and i think you need to be more specific on what you mean by haha comedy ok?

chunckymonkey August 3rd, 2004 2:02 PM

I don't know what kind of comedy we want... and isn't most comedy haha :laugh: what kind do we want...you should know the kind

Rose Flame August 3rd, 2004 3:34 PM

Are you basing it on an original idea, or a previously existing one...that is, is it basically a fan work?

Firefly August 3rd, 2004 3:41 PM

It is going to be original but basicly what we are looking for right now are random thoughts or what is something you think would be funny or what would you like to see in it don't worry if it is totally out there because most of what we have right now is too.

Rose Flame August 3rd, 2004 3:47 PM

So you need a plot...okay, here's something off the top of my head;
Someone has amnesia,(male or female) and their memory is slowly coming back to them. While they try to live a normal life, after giving up on finding out how their life used to be, a whole...thing is playing out around them, with the people that they were very close to or closely associated with (think criminal activities), and their totally oblivious to it. The people they used to know are trying frantically to find them for some reason very important to those people but not to this person with amnesia...just fill in the blanks and there you go!
I'm writing a fanfic with a similiar story line.

chunckymonkey August 3rd, 2004 4:00 PM

thanks rose we'll think about it. Anyone else have any other ideas.

Ryoutarou August 4th, 2004 7:43 AM

What type of comady do you want? Satire? Basic? Blatent?

chunckymonkey August 4th, 2004 11:14 AM

well i guess basic. and some other stuff thrown in

Ryoutarou August 4th, 2004 11:21 AM

Then try something like animal funhouse except take out all the satire and higer funny jokes in it

chunckymonkey August 4th, 2004 12:01 PM

Ok, but what about the plot?

Ryoutarou August 4th, 2004 12:06 PM

Well if the plots comedy it dosent have to be that strong maybe something like...A person who hates strange things and wants a normal life but everything around him is the exact opposite
