ANIME HERO!

**PhantomGM6101** · Mar 14th, '03, 04:26 PM

Just a idea to bounce off you guys: Guardians of Order has created a anime RPG name Big Eyes,Small Mouth with all sorts of genres including:Historical adventures
The supernatural
Kids adventure
Sentai[Superteam] adventures
[Gatchaman,Power Rangers]
Magical Girl shojo[Sailor Moon]
Romance
Shonen adventure
International[Lupin III}
Giant Mecha[Gundam series]
Fantasy[Rayearth]
and more taht you can dream up.
Since you guys have some in development why don't you create an anime genre book for HERO that's compatable with
Champions,STAR HERO, Fantasy HERO Ninja HERO ETC.?
It would be a cool idea to create your own anime game series with the HERO system. So what do you think?

I thought Ninja Hero covered a lot of that material already. Buy Ninja Hero and BESM. Bang them together.

There's an article on this subject in the latest issue of Digital Hero.

Speaking of the Digital Hero article, I was debating sending Steve a proposal for a 60k word e-book idea. basically expanding the look at different genres and elements thereof, more information on archetypes and stereotypes, a look at how anime handles things like magic and mental (i.e. esper) powers, and more sample characters.

Of course, this would have to wait until current projects are compelted.

This is a great ideal, Susano. Of course, it would be an e-book (And I hate e-books. I don't even have a copy of your Anime Hero artical because I don't have the cash to buy a Digital Hero subscription, AND go over to Kinkos and spend on computer time and printing costs, seeing that I am just a humble utility clerk...).

And, yes, I would put the ideal on the backburner till some more stuff gets released.

Which reminds me...do you know that there is going to be a d20 version of BESM? Scairy thought.

Yeah. I even applied in reponse to a free-lance call for anime-knowledgeable authors, but was turned down. *sigh*

They wanted a more experienced author.

I still think they're nuts. I site you're character adaptions as a factor in my getting into Anime in the first place.

*shrug*

Tell that to GOO.

I would have liked to have done it, but I'll keep plugging away at stuff for HERO. I'm fairly sure Steve and Darren won't mind.

I think they are insane also. Your Anime collection got me into anime. Your write-ups for Anime characters are awesome, and always keep the spirit of the character right. Oh well, their loss.

i will admit, the real world, and real world projects have over-whelmed my ability to edit and update the webpage. Hopefully, later this spring and summer, I'll be able to get more new adaptions up, as well as more 4th to 5th conversions done of what is already there.

While you're at it why don't you add characters like LUPIN III
and Gatchaman to the site? or add even Gigantor and 8-Man to the mix?

Because I don't know those anime and have never seen any (aside from CASTLE OF CAGLIOSTRO). I only do adaptions of stuff I have seen, taken notes on, and like.
