Re: What's Your Current Anime? Mk II

Just finished Eureka Seven, and I must say it's one of the best series I've watched in a long time. The romance portrayed between Renton and Eureka feels real and is worth the length of the series. The character development is excellent on the major ones as well.

Re: General Fan Fiction Discussion

I think you're on the right track regarding beliefs and writing. While here, it is going to be some form of fiction, to make certain elements believable, they must inherently come from reality. It is most probable that the ideas and experiences held by the author are going to manifest some way withi...

Re: General Fan Fiction Discussion

Another point, which I think has been touched on somewhat, is wrapping up the story. Specifically, the characters themselves. I have a few characters that will definitely die, because, they kinda need to, but others, I'm not entirely sure what fate they'll have. Sometimes you can wrap things like t...

Re: General Fan Fiction Discussion

When you jump the shark, so to speak, the credibility isn't there. I wonder what some people have learned/realized through writing. Personally, I've found that posting a blurb about a character's bio outside their name/age/hair/etc. doesn't do a whole lot. I still keep those notes, but in an unpubli...

Re: General Fan Fiction Discussion

The problem is, at least in current society, nobody wants to hear the negative. Nothing wrong with liking to be praised, but if nobody is able to point out "hey, this idea sucks", you run the risk of crap.

Re: General Fan Fiction Discussion

What, no Char-clone eating a Big Mac? :D

I like the concept taking the Stargazer 200 years after the current CE stuff and building on that and the seeming natural progression, as you pointed out, was merely hinted at. Evidence-01 seemed like it should've had a larger explanation than it received.

Re: General Fan Fiction Discussion

Okay I'm in the works of my revision of the original Edge of Apocalypse story. I am doing what Gundam should have done, time travel. So it'll be interesting to see how this stoyr ends up. There's a line between creative liberty and going off base with an idea. If Gundam was a super robot show, this...

Re: What's Your Current Anime? Mk II

Eureka Seven.

I watched the first 8 eps in one day. I know this was really hyped, and so far, it's lived up to that commotion. I'm up through 14 already, so it's got my attention. Hopefully I can watch a bit more today.

Re: General Fan Fiction Discussion

I remember back in high school something about protagonists and antagonists. The thought was that the story's protagonist has something to overcome. Sometimes this is defeating the monster, while other times, it might be dealing with a personal issue. In Gundam Deus, yes, there are mecha battles Ele...

Re: General Fan Fiction Discussion

And so do I. I'm fortunate enough to have it milder so I haven't needed to have a large dosage of anything. What I have found enormously helpful is structure. I may not have a ton of projects completed at once, but I need to focus on accomplishing a few things and be satisfied with that first before...

Re: General Fan Fiction Discussion

What they're saying is this: 1.)Focus on ONE story at a time. Put all your energy into that work and no others. Create, develop and guide this work to completion before starting something else. -OR- 2.)Work on a lot of stories, but have them self-contained and end quickly. See, what you're doing is ...

Okay, news: Nothing new to post because of life and that I've been concentrating on Gundam Deus. I'm not abandoning this, but clearly, I haven't had new completed stuff to post in 3 months.

Re: What's Your Current Anime? Mk II

I've been catching Blassreiter on ANN. I'm enjoying it, but with Gonzo, I'm not surprised as I'm usually satisfied with what they put out. I'm about half-way through, so things are interesting. I've gotten a slight Bubblegum Crisis vibe off it for some reason, possibly because the Demoniacs remind m...
