Wondering, manga ideas


Im in the need for someones (anyones) personal opinion.
See I've been writing and drawing manga's for some time however I need others output (or is it input I forget) On a topic. I'm trying to narrow down which idea seems to flow the best and would be the easiest to go with. However each story is about at max 30 pages so keep dat in mind.

Frist is one called Shaman B.U.

The story revolves around a young man in a faimly of esteem shamans. He however doesn't have his own spiritual guardians. As the story unfolds he finally gets his own but they seem well how can I put this, They suck REALLY HARD!!

The frist is a river spirit that is just a blue bouncing ball with no face, no limbs, just an old fashion samurai hat. His name is Umigo. Second is a Forest spirit that is dumb as humanly (or spiritaully) possible. All that is seen of him is his legs. The rest of his boudy, assuming its there, is hidden beneath a big hat, His name is Feninr
The final spirit is Yamigo, a fairy of darkness which resemblys Navi from Legend of Zelda. However this spirit has a really bad attitude.
The man Character is named Benjamin Ureai (hince the title Shaman B.U.) He's 15 years old lazy and doesn't really care to much about anything, my kind of person.

Second Idea was In the grim of Hope


This one I got while watching Yu Yu Hakusho. Its about the new age grim reaper. Its a 6'4 16 year old that wears all black and a skull necklace. He encounters a spirit of another young man who refuses to accept the fact that he's dead. The story takes place over the incident of the spirit "haunting" his girlfriend who he had died protecting. Its up to the new and improved grim reaper to find the spirit and send him to the other side befor demons begin to hunt him and the women he loves.

Side note : I didn't do this one because it was too touchy feely for me.

The third one was Do as infinity

This is one is about a guardian of time and space. He has the appearance of a 12 year old and carries a pet weasel. The weasel however transforms into a beast covered into flames.
(It looks like the thing from Okami and the cat from inyuasaha mixed together). Each chapter was met to take place at a diffrent time , like 20 years apart or something. The story I chose was about a drug dealer trying to keep his life away from his girlfriend. Then for them to run into the kid and how he tries to help them out.

Side note: I didn't do this one because people said it was too sad because (gasp) the guy , drugdealer, dies in the end.

The final one Im putting down is called
"Stealing back December" which is my favorite

This story takes place in a world where everone known magic. Anyone who doesn't know magic is looked down upon and treat like crap. However the main character Christen has a thing called 0% magical probabilty. This means as the name suggest he can't and never will be able to use magic. However he has another abilty, Due to the )% magical prob. He is immune to most magic.

As such he has taken on his faimlies legacy as thieves. (Yes, like DNangel). However when his best friend falls ill christen must steal a rare artifact known as the lost december. A crystal which makes any wish come true. The story is mainly about him trying to steal the thing.

Side note: this was my favorite because it had everything, a love story, action ,and I liked the ending.

Well tell me what you think

Re: Wondering, manga ideas
Very nice ideas!

I completely agree with your choice. It sounds as that's the story with the most possibilities. It sounds very interesting and I'm eager to learn more about it.

The third idea (Do As Infinity) sounds appealing to me as well, but that's probably just because I've always loved stories that have something to do with time and space Noein, Terminator and the recently released movie Click, I like 'em all. The possibilities of being able to manipulate time and/or space are an almost endless. I haven't gotten around to thinking of something like a story or a short movie of my own yet, but I hope I will soon.

Spin is a very nice example of the idea of manipulating time and space. It's a real treat to watch it. At least, it was for me.

Re: Wondering, manga ideas
That was the most popular thing to when it came down to my story writing. Someone who has powers but they aren't really spectaular powers. The ablity to manipulate time in the mannerisum of the story is that the main character can just travel through time however he is unable to change something that has been destined to happen. If he should do so then well................................

Well in the story you find out in the final chapter of the writing but in the end it all seems to come together quite nicely in its writing. I chose these 4 storeies because they seem to have a nice flow to them and can continue on without any real heavy thought. The other Ideas I've had are just too vauge in thier choices and to wide in terms. The very idea of these 4 writings to everyone I told got them ready to hear more.
