i kind of want an animated/animanga superhero rpg. There was one like a year or two ago and it never went anywhere -- I always thought it was brilliant.
like have all the heroes/villians from the marvel and dc universes with their powers and similar occupations, but like have different fcs/characters for them? like an alternate universe/storyline that doesn't strictly depend on the cinematic universe(s) or comics. like imagine how fire it would be to have lelouch lamperage as stephan strange, or asuka langley as jean grey
This totally resonates with me, but if only due to some really fun threads I had on Comic Book Resources forums years ago. Back then, there was this series of threads called "Fantasy Recasting", where we attempt to retell the events of Marvel/DC story arcs, but with the involved characters being recast using characters from other franchises. Like, one I remembered was a fantasy recasting of Infinity War. (the story arc in the comics) Also reminds me of some of my old RP buddies of mine from Hyakuji High School who did Elseworlds-style reinterpretations of animanga characters. Like for example, making Kagura Hinata from H²O: Footprints in the Sand a friggin' Stand User. XD (With her Stand being none other than the ghost of her deceased sister, Otoha)
This concept seriously has potential.
