How about "The One Truth"?

I'm planning on giving the main character the ability of Clairvoyance, look into the future and whatnot. But his clairvoyance isn't a normal one, but a rare one called "One Truth". Apparently it not only looks into the future, but he can also change that future. Seeing what the opponent does is strong enough, but changing it into your favor is pretty powerful, wouldn't you think?

The meaning to the ability is seeing into the future, means you know the "truth" of what's to happen, but with his ability, he can change that truth.

Also, the main character's name is Shinichi, which also means "One Truth".

So far it's just a disposable idea, as I haven't gone into it seriously. However I have a draft of the re-design for Alt's main character, couple up with Fuku, and a new character.

  Spoiler: drafts

Though you forget, manga isn't just the words, it's the artwork too, if you pick up a manga any time today, and then compare it's story with a novel, there's much less limit to what a manga can have. Am I right? There are some things that cannot be described by story alone, or are simply just too hard. There are two different types of stories that exist. Ones that are suited for the novels, and ones suited for manga.

Manga has as least words as possible, but at the same time explain the story well and presents itself well.

Novels however are nothing but a giant mound of words, word after word, just words.

My point is, manga stories are something totally different to normal stories. And since manga is something that not anyone can draw, it being here is fitting,

that is of course, can you tell me of a section that fulfills the requirements of validly containing both story AND appropriate artwork?

Well, true there aint a manga section, but their is an anime section, maybe suggest to Mastaz, that their could be a manga section as well? But somehow this idea doesn't seem very fitting for this clan. In my mind it just doesnt add up....
Well, you can have it open here, but in my opinion there should be a diffrent section for this.

[ichijin]

Even I know it doesn't quite fit here, but this is the place where I think it fits best...

I'm not saying it does truly fit here, but from what we have here on the forum, this clan here is where it fits best, from what I see. There could be the creation of a manga-making clan, but we don't have enough people who are seriously pursuing this path, thus we cannot make the clan.

Though opinions on my story at the least?

*blushes* thanks I think making sickminded, mass murdering characters, isn't a problem for me. That's what I like, giving him personalities that are weird or disgusting. But the hard thing is to keep it at that and let those attitudes appear sometimes. Like Death The Kid in Soul Eater. He and his symmetry. The writer needs to keep that as background to make a story with him. If you know what I mean

You can always pick up inspiration in your social world. Analyse the attitude of people you don't like. Search for what's so hately about him and work it out, or something.


Well, Ichi. I think it could be interesting. To be honest, it ain't so much, so I don't know what to think of it proeply. But it could be cool. Like an intro with all his money and being rich and then *poof* everything's gone. Then he's rebelling in his new school, cuz he's spoiled or something. I dunno...

Then...The school is a bit ordinary. There are alot of mangas with schools that teach people to do special things. Like Yakuza Girl and Soul Eater and... other mangas and can't come up with
But that shouldn't be a problem, I think.

That's all I can tell.

[ichijin]

Well, psychic powers aren't going to be limited to moving objects and looking into this and that, it'll include use with weapons, and other stuff.

But that theme alone seems to be done to death... Yet it's still popular. Though, Yakuza Girl would be the theme that's much more like my idea, except it's something else. Soul Eater however is an entirely different world, so that wouldn't match very much.

I do however have another story, but I'll put it up later, it's relatively easy to solidify, but I just don't feel like posting it at the moment.

[Yamato Senpai]

The idea is solid ichijin... you always come up with pretty unique stuff and thats always good.

Im just wondering how itll be executed? Especially in fights... a guy that has the power to change the future could, in fights, be god-like. Thats the only real problem I see though..

I have another vague idea myself. No name for this one either.

  Spoiler: no name #2 

Making this short since I have to go to school >_> I wanted to use my character from WHFO some how, so this is what came to mind..

Icarus wasnt any normal kid. In fact, he was probably one of the most powerful shinigamis among the small number in the world. His problem.. he was still too human. When a mission given out by the big guy asks him to kill a family, Icarus cant bring himself to murder the child. So, the story starts when Icarus takes this child in and starts to learn what it is to be a normal kid again.

Yeah, expect some edits later. I realize this sounds sort of shoujo too lmao but trust me it wont be.

[ichijin]

Shoujo? It depends on the characters in this case

It sounds like a pretty solemn story... Not too much room for fun, but that also depends on the characters D:

New one, made an RP for it, but here's the manga version.

  Spoiler: When Hell Freezes Over 

Hell. It froze. Thrown into an eternal winter, it's inhabitants accustomed to the searing heat of hell were slowly wiped out over the centuries of it's freezing Ice Age. Then soon, Satan himself died, and his remains, became the one man who stood in the way of Hell's annihilation, and it's restoration. This is the story of the legendary Dark Bringer, Lucifear Sata. A man with immense power, and an uncannily insane attitude. Now he must face the one thing that stops him from restoring Hell. The army of super-human angel-powered force, known as the Apostles.

Now theres an ass kick idea.. I like that one a lot ichi. x) Cant really offer anything since its still vague but its got me interested and thats probably one of the biggest elements in a manga...actually catching a readers attention.


but

It sounds like a pretty solemn story... Not too much room for fun, but that also depends on the characters D:

^ yeah.. Its still in the process thats all.. Ive got a lot more for my other one to work out before I can actually go in depth with this one. Basically I wanted it to focus on humor/drama/action...ehhh

Anyways Ill prolly post some sketches of character designs for the first later. Theyre rough but yeah >_>

[ichijin]

For Lucifear I can use this as the base

Sturm Kendra by ~Zanjitsu on deviantART

I drew the guy for an RP, but he's also the base for the character.

You shouldn't eliminate satan before the story even starts. But this main character is the bad guy right? How do you put all those items in a bad guy like courage, love, nobelness, etc. everything all main characters of manga's have in common: they're on the good side. If you can make the bad guy the main character, you will have to make one hell of a story. Don't get me wrong, I'm behind the idea of turning the badguy into the main character.
Try not to exagerate (no clue how to write this word :S) the story to much with "uncuunningly insane" and "super-human-angel-powererd" try to keep it angels, that way, you can improve them as your story continues.
What I'm trying to say here, using a ridiculous amount of words, don't start with ultimatums, try to build up to a climax, then throw up all the ultimatums.

Good setup Ichi-senpai!
