Sad State of Affairs (Post-SPC)

[Battousai]

Hmmm. What you say is true, but we do have 52 eps to base stuff on. Is there any particular reason why there needs to 183 issues of a "real" SPC comic, before an online fan comic can be made?

Well,  since we have nothing better to do,   why don't we give that a shot  ?!?!

Sounds like a good idea to me.

Dude, SPC has a Big fan community and we have episodes online that are “Bitorrent free”, what else do you want?. A online comic that is fanmade as Sonic has? That’s impossible because we don’t have 183 issues of a real SPC comic to base stuff from!.

A Tv show format very different from a comic, Sonic fans had a comic camed “Sonic the comic” to base the online one, they just continued the story, but there is no decent way to continue the story from where the SPC Tv show ended, specially if you believe that thing about Guru Lou rebuilding the Catatonic, who would dare to fight the robot that destroyed a comet?.  But  even if you don’t have the Catatonic anymore, what could the story be about? I had one about Ninja crows clans fighting for leadership, since the departure of Jerry and Bad bird leave them without leaders. But that wont affect Little Tokyo much, it was more a side story about “GB”(Good bird) being hunted as a traitor. Besides, since Polly, Guido and specially Speedy raised their powers so much, the enemies would need to have some "spirit power" to make things interesting. So it would end being some kind of DBZ rip off. Besides a online comic takes ages to make, you need more than anything artists willing to work in it for free, cause is easy to find decent writers that do it for free^_-.

Not that there's anything wrong with big goals, and huge stories, but perhapse you folks should consider just starting a little smaller.

I wouldn't mind seeing a good SPC online comic, nor one that had a huge story and everything, but some things are just hard to come up with likity-split.

Just for starters, start small. Make up a simple comic about... let's say... Speedy loosing his tooth brush.

Next, keep going from there. Perhapse a little while after that story arc, bring in another story arc that is tied into that some-how.
Perhapse his tooth brush being stolen was a setup for some grand scheme where bad guys try to spy on the Pizza Cats. Lots of talk can go on in the visinity of a tooth brush.

After that, have a few more arcs, then come back with another expansion. Perhapse now the bad guys have a plan, and they're acting on it.

See what you've just made? You've probably made a few comics, had some laughs, and had a story line playing in the background.
All great trees start out as a small seed. Try planting a few and see what comes out.   

[Battousai]

Hmm ..... Interesting thought Kyo.

......  but I think you missed a spot.

I agree that great trees start out as little seedlings.   But I think most SPC fans have already had these "little seedlings"  in their hands ever since the SOBs took the show off the air back when Tutankhamen was still in nappies.   Some carry these seeds in their pockets to work and back.      Heck,  some have even planted these seeds in their own backyard.

But the one thing these people haven't done is to actually find a block of land to plant these seeds in.   Instead of in those beautiful,  decorative yet constrictive pot plants.

But I suppose thats the "Galaxy-sized"  goal you were speaking of huh Kyo ?

OK, .... walk past the block of land thingy for a sec and walk into that church down the road.    Maybe there are pople there who vibrate in the same frequency as the seeds' owners.    Maybe those seeds can be spread a little more effectively if people get together.

Afterall,  colonization of a new landscape requires more than one person.    Heck,  even starting a family requres two indivuduals at the very minimum.   Three for some. 

Sure we have already gathered together and everything.  But the efforts mostly go into commenting on the weather.     Or politics.      Or girls. (4 the boys)     Nothing overly constructive and/or ambitious.

............... ok,  that flash project thing was quite ambitious.    But that's different.    This is actually within our reach IMO.

No anime fans love animes like Kaiketsu Zorori or Samurai Pizza Cats
All they want is action, sexy girls, blood, death, sex scenes

Now I don't know much about this newfangled Japanimation or whatever all you whippersnappers been talkin' about... but aren't FLCL and Azumanga Daioh two well-liked and fairly recent shows which didn't rely on the aforementioned content?

I know a few guys who would love to disagree with ya. I made the same statement to them and they all trashed me down on that stereotype (even though that 80% is true). So, I wouldn't generalize on that if I were you. If the guys that I know of actually came here and read your post. They would try to find ways to ban this forum. Trust me. They know people. So, let's not try this on more than one occasion. Even if I do agree with ya.

In that case, they should LOVE SPC! It has all they could ever ask for!

OK, I was a overreacting a bit
but, seriously
do you see any Pizza Cat cosplay @ any anime con?
I don't think so

animes like KO Beast, Kaiketsu Zorori & PANDA-Z get shunned
In favor of Mech animes, Cowboy Bebop, and animes from Shonen Jump
