Chinese New Year, Year of the MON(K)EY!
May good fortune, peace, and properity to bless upon you all!
I'll start off with the story I'll be re-working.
There's this OLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLD story that was very heavily inspired by Neon Genesis Eva, that I've decided to tear down and rebuild with the main inspriation being Bubblegum Crisis. I'm not interest in drawing gaint robots, which is a big reason why I was putting it off so hard. I don't know why I love the idea of robot armor suits so much more, but I do! The characters will be the same, for the most part, but I'm going to be less pychological and tormenting. The change in insprirsation and theme means a heavy change in characters and story. That means a whole new development process, now.
I'm also only going to do 2 stories instead of 3. The second story using the same character bases is still heavily insprided by NGE: AC, but that is subject to change. I've come to the point where I want to get away from NGE being a leading inspriation for anything I produce. There are many other productions that I enjoy more (like BGC), and I will them the recongition they deserve!
This story has been sitting for since 2013, and I still want something to come of it. I'm glad that I'm allowing more ideas to come into play. For as old as this concept is I want to be happy with it and produce something I'm proud of.

Now, for the new!
I've recently come across a show, that I very much dislike and has insprised me to make a better story with it as the leading inspriation. I hate the plot, dailog, and character design. Uniform stereotypical white kids - skinny, heterosexual, cisgender, middle to upper class, no real problems outside of their own bubble of irresponiblity. Every villain is easy, and there's little to no character development. Shit just happens.
I'm taking the base of the story and turning it into something dynamic and challenging, and calling forth all creativity to make something mind-blowing happen! If that's not over rated enough, I'm also going to throw in some sexuality, because this is teenagers, and it's stupid to not have that at the point of sexually discovery in a person's life!
I have 3 completely different stories branching for this one idea, so far. The first more closely based off the original content, with much darker themes (among other major changes). The second seemling reaching into NGE: AC AND BGC concepts, and then just turning into a cyberpunk anarchy nightmare. The third starts off normal like the second and stays normal longer, but shit gets real or unreal. I've already planned out character deaths for the 1st and 2nd. The 2nd set is going to be the shortest. So far, I don't want anyone to die in the 3rd set, but knowing me someone probably will.
More details to come! Let's go, 2016!
