Fake Anime Fan
Jul. 29th, 2020 04:56 pmBackstory: Our local anime con (I say "our" because I help staff it) is going online only this year, free to anyone interested in "attending", etc. It's this weekend. I thought it might be fun to make a Twine game for folks to play as a little perk, to simulate the convention. Would anyone be interested in helping me come up with a bunch of fake anime titles and summaries? I'd love to have twelve (or even more!), though I can probably make do with as few as eight. If you contribute and I manage to put the game together, I'll be sure to include your name in the credits!
Here's some genre ideas to get us started:
School drama
School comedy
RomCom
Magical girl
Shounen fighting anime
High fantasy story (portal fantasy accepted)
Space opera story
Fanservice story (I am least excited about this one)
Sci-fi story
Supernatural story
Historical story
M/M story (can also be any genre above)
F/F story (can also be any genre above)
The latest Miyazaki film
Combining any of the above is also fine.
Edit: The demo version of the game is live! Thank you, everyone, for all of the ideas you've contributed! I'm still hoping to get enough for a second video room, though, so ideas are still very welcome. Hearts! ♥

Did they return to the same place and time, or did they end up somewhere different? The ending music strongly implies that they got to keep some of the skills they earned in the other realm, but is that true? Etc.)

Right now I'm planning to make a new panel about queer representation in anime for the convention, so it'll definitely come up there, but I'll try to also work it into the main panel. I'm thinking that Matthew may have looked considerably different before going through the whatever portal? Like, he was definitely somewhat less broad of shoulder before falling asleep at the mountain, and also now he has a very nice beard. And then Isabel's backstory can include romantic moments with folks of multiple genders. That sound good to you?
