What's up everyone,
I'm working on a story involving rival gangs battling it out for control of the city. The type of gangs are 80's to present day style gangs not old school mafia type gangs. I grew up around alot of black and mexican gangs so that part of the story is pretty easy to write. I'm writing from experience. But I am not to familiar with white, asian and other types of gangs. Alot of how gangs behave is influenced by their culture so I was wondering if anyone that might have grown up around this type of environment or is just well versed on the subject can help me out and give me some information so that the sTory is as accurate as possible. I'm having trouble coming up with gang names and gang member names as well as the way their gangs are structured and their slang. Even if the information you know is 2nd hand information it could be really useful. If you have any name ideas or stories can you please post them here so that I can get some more inspiration. I'm constantly watching documentaries but there is only so much information I can gain from them. Theres nothing like 1st or even 2nd hand experiences.

Thanks in advance guys.

General Manga writer discussions / Content creators share your channels.

Because I'm sure everyone in here has a passion for anime and manga I think its safe to assume that there are a few of us out there that create some sort of content for the community. Whether it be YouTube or a podcast I think it would be a cool idea for us to interact with eachother and help eachother grow our community.
Post a link to your content so we can all check it out.
I listen to podcasts on a daily basis and I'm looking for more that I can listen to!

I have a podcast called Sero Speaks where I discuss mostly anine and manga. I've recently been reviewing the manga Dr Stone and I'm soon gonna begin reviewing the Promised Neverland. Check it out and let me know what you guys think.

Anchor.fm/Sero
I'm also on apple podcast, spotify and anywhere else theres podcasts.

Manga Artists Wanted / Mother Earth (working title)
« on: July 09, 2017, 10:56:48 PM »
Hello, I'm looking for an artist to partner with in order to make a story of mine come to life. I have about 4 stories that are mostly complete but are to large so I decided to create a much shorter story so that I could have a finished story under my belt and hopefully make a profit off of. It is a shounen adventure type story that will be kid friendly. I specify that because most of my stories aren't. I plan on completing the writing of this story in the next few months and want to work with an artist now so that we can work on the character concepts an start preparing. I am VERY open to letting the artist have creative freedom when designing characters and will simply put my input unless I have a very specific idea in mind.I am very passionate about my projects and will be using instagram as a marketing platform eventually planning on moving to Facebook, YouTube and twitter once I gain a decent following. I'm currently learning to draw and am willing to help with the storyboarding. I also have a friend that has a decent sized anime following from his clothing line that said he is willing to share my work with his followers to help me grow when I'm ready to do so and have enough content. If you are interested please PM me and I will give you the general idea for my story as well as my marketing plan. If you could also attach examples of your art style I would greatly appreciate it. Working together for the full duration of the duration of the project is a must. I want someone that we can be invested in this together and we will grow together as friends.
With my marketing plan I will also be assisting the artist gain more exposure since that will help gain more followers for the project on instagram. I will be heading the marketing by assistance from the artist will be appreciated. 2 heads are better than 1 after all.
(P.S I am not expecting an expert level artist, someone slightly better than a beginner will do because I am expecting us to both grow our skills with this project)

Extremely vague summary of story
Villain goes to a temple where the earths magic is accessible and attempts to steal the earths magic for himself and ends up releasing it. Many people including the heroes are given the magic of the earth the guardian of the magic finds 2 heroes to travel the earth to help him collect the magic and restore it back to the earth before the earth dies.

There's much more to it but that is the basic idea.

I look forward to hearing from y'all soon.

Manga Artists Wanted / Offering FREE writing services!!
« on: May 18, 2017, 01:01:30 PM »
I can't really call myself a writer but I'm working on becoming one.
I currently have about 3 stories that I was working on and I halted 2 to focus on my most recent story but I realized that I add so much to the world characters, story, and everything that it is becoming a very lengthy story.
I have decided to put that story on hold so that I can practice short stories but anything I create I seem to never stop adding characters and story elements and because of that I want to work on someone else's idea!

I am offering to help write YOUR story. Anything you like. If you have a very vague idea for a story and aren't good at developing it into something more then I'm willing to help. You will have full editorial control over what goes into your story so if your like an idea or don't like the direction I am going with a character I will change it to meet your needs. I really enjoy writing and I'm just trying to get some experience with actually completing a short story.

Please no extremely lengthy stories. I have my own that I have not even completed. ( I can maybe do a story arc for your large story but nothing longer than that.)

My preference is shounen type action stories but I can do other stories. I tend to lean towards darker stories with serious tones but I am also good at more family friendly stories. My stories seem to have a balance of both.

ANY art level is ok. I am by no means a professional and I don't expect to work with a professional artist. This is your project I'm working on so I'll accept anyone. (I will be honest if for some reason I don't think I can do your story. Don't think I'm comfortable with hentai or anything like that.)

Please feel free to message me or to just reply to this post.

General Discussion / Do you make categories when brainstorming??
« on: March 31, 2017, 02:21:43 PM »
Hey everyone, I haven't been on lately because I have been working 2 full time jobs, going to school full time and just recently started my own business but I have a little spare time so I wanted to start a thread.

When I create my story I make a bunch of categories and then elaborate on them little by little while inspiration hits me.
I wanted to know if anyone else brainstorms this way and if so what categories so you feel are absolutely necessary to creating a good story.

I'll add a few

Characters: this is where I go into detail about each character with their back story, abilities, personality, appearance etc. (obviously)

Rules of the world: this is where I establish rules to the world that I make a serious attempt not to break unless there is an exception in the story. From the government, Setting, and any magical or other kind of rules I want to place.

Geography: here I literally describe the physical layout of the world. Rivers, oceans, continents, islands, etc. (y'all get the idea)

Abilities: I make a list of abilitiesor my characters to have and when inspiration hits I elaborate on the characters story and more specific details.

Name ideas: I make a list of names that I make up or names that I like and think will go well with the story.

Science of the world: normally I do this if the world is in a futuristic setting to where the technology needs to be  explained or if the world relies heavily on magic or abilities. I like for my readers to fully understand how everything works.

Organizations: I use this to describe criminal organizations, teams etc.

If anyone has any other type of categories that they use I would like to know so that maybe I can get some inspiration.

Please and thank you.

Just came up with a new idea for a story and I'm lookin for a co writer, a 50/50 collaborator or just someone to give me some good ideas but doesn't want to put to much work into it.
By 50/50 collaborator I just mean someone who is willing to commit to the story for the long run and to put in the same amount of effort that I am.

With all of that being said I do have a family, 2 jobs and I'm a reservist in the military so I don't have a hinge amount of time on my hands. Meaning that this is a slow progressing project and it's not something that will be complete in a few months. I am constantly brainstorming and coming up with ideas so even though I'm busy my stories are ALWAYS progressing. The only part that takes a big hit due to my busy schedule is the writing portion but because this story is so new, scripting won't be necessary for quite a while.

Now onto the story. Just imagine that the world has become extremely primitive and back to the time when there was small tribes,around 3-6 peoples scythe rest is the animal herd. Now every one of those tribes lives with specific animals. Think Tarzan.
The story revolves around 3 different protagonist each from a different region of the world.
One lives with peaceful animals and the story revolves around his struggle to survive as prey to larger and stronger animals/tribes with his tribe and animals.
The second is the story of a man and his tribe and predatory animals and their struggle for territory and trying to find food while battling against rival predators.
The last is still up in he air but I have a few even more vague ideas. Lol

Knowledge of different animals and regions of the world would be helpful but not necessary because I like to learn and do research so I'm going to be learning a lot about different types of animals.

I know that a story that is this raw and new wont interest many people but if you have any interest in the story and want to help comment on here. I'm only looking for one person to work with because communication with groups of people becomes a little to time consuming and I already stated that I'm pretty busy lol

I'm overwhelmed with the amount of research I have to do for my stories.
I like my stories to have a lot of realism or explanation for every little thing in my stories so I do a lot of research on many different topics in order to make sure there is no plot holes or that something doesn't make sense.
Now obviously this is all fictitious so I have some leeway but I like all of my ideas to stem from some level of realism. For example the story I am currently working on involves demons and magic so I have done countless hours of research on all types and forms of magic as well as countless hours of research on demonology. After I get factual information I slightly tweak it to fit my world/story. Is this normal or am I putting to much emphasis on realism and I should just invent everything from scratch?

This topic is just meant for people to add their 2 cents and explain their way of writing and what works for them.

Trying to start an interesting conversation 😄

General Discussion / Cool and unique weapon ideas!
« on: February 23, 2016, 08:36:50 PM »
So I'm writing a story and I have the main characters worked out but one important thing is missing.
I dont really have many ideas for a lot of different weapons.

I just want some people to give me some cool and unique weapons from many different cultures.
Simple as that. I'll do the research on the origin and design of the weapon but I just need some ideas to get my mind flowing.
And all I need is a name of the weapon. If you don't feel like explaining it I'll do my own research.
Thank you in advance.

Btw my story takes place in modern times so anything from swords and shields of medieval times all the way to sub machine guns and predator drones are fair game.

Welcome Center / New to MR
« on: February 10, 2016, 01:33:52 PM »
Hey everyone. I'm new to MR and wanted to introduce myself.
I'm Ser0ooo and here to meet some artists and writers alike.
If anyone is in the Charlotte NC area then it would be cool to connect and collab on something. 😄

Not sure where to post this so I thought this would be a good place to try.

I had an idea to make a large story with the OC of anyone willing to participate.
I figure that anyone that would like to can enter a protagonist as well as an antagonist and we can blend all the characters into a large battle manga story.
Everyone would have to be ok with their characters winning and losing occasionally against other characters in order for it to be fair. I just think it would be interesting for everyone's characters to interact with eachother and battle eachother. It would just be for fun and it would be even more epic if we could get a few artist to draw a few battles between characters.
Everyone would submit the information for their characters like appearance, abilities and personalities and other writers can write small one shot stories involving other people's character wich would give us writers some practice writing for other characters and artist to draw some interesting stories, not to mention it would bring us together as a community.
I really just want to see how my characters can hold up to other OC's
Even if people don't want to create a whole story we can make small battles involving each other's character, have the community vote on the winner and write up a quick story board and have a huge variety of battle scenes with our characters. If anyone is interested just reply directly on here. If not then we'll it was worth a shot lol

Hello everyone,
I'm Ser0ooo and I'm looking for some artistic help.
I'm working on a story that involves multiple families of demon hunters.
Each family has major differences in the way they "hunt" so their appearances are pretty different from eachother.
There is no extremely specific outline for how I want each character to look so any artist that is willing to help out will have a lot of say in the look of the character. I will give you a description of their personalities and their gear and the rest is up to your interpretation.
Also there is a huge importance to my story on how specific demons look so if that's your thing I also need artists to draw many different kinds of demons and weapons. I will give more detail to anyone who wants to help with this project.

P.S. Any writers that are slightly intrigued by this concept feel free to message me. I'm also looking for co writers.

Manga Writers wanted / Seeking co writer. Artist welcome as well.
« on: January 30, 2016, 10:06:12 PM »
Looking for a co writer to help me complete my story. I have the majority of it planned out but I need help with minor details as well as some development of some supporting characters.

Story:
There is 3 families of demon hunters that find demons that have found their way into our world, each family has a different traditional way that they hunt demons. Our story follows a boy that has just completed his training to become a demon hunter for his family as a group of demons overwhelm him and take him to hell. Hunters are forbidden from entering the gates of hell so his younger brother who was not trained as a hunter decides to take it upon himself and rescue him from the depths of hell. Armed with his brothers weapons he battles deeper into the depths of hell to rescue his brother while his brother fights to stay alive.

I need help with the development of the other 2 families.

If this story interests you and you're wanting to help respond to this post. Any artist hat has an interest is welcome to respond as well. Any skill level is welcome from any writer or artist.

Working on my own comic book vigilante universe. It has around 50 characters so far and it's still growing. This project will eventually need many different artists and writers to complete but I am looking to meet artists in my area to begin collaborating with. I'm looking for a partner not an employee. Someone who can bring their own creative ideas to the story as well as the art but mainly just a friend tht we can collaborate together and start a friendship. I feel that 2 people would be able to work together much easier if they have an actual friendship not just a partnership.

This project will not be able to be completed any time soon but I would like to take steps in the right direction. I want a beginning artist so we can both grow together and create something we both are passionate about. If you are interested, please Contact me.

I am in the Charlotte NC area and would like someone that I could meet in person but it's not required by any means.
