PROJECT: AEGIS
(Working Title)
This will be my main project on this thread (maybe my only project, depending how I go about this), a Tokusatsu-Inspired Comic/Manga. The Tokusatsu speaks for itself, the Manga/Anime influence is mostly from Shounen works like One Piece, Black Clover, etc. since I enjoy both, and the two are basically perfect for each other.
So, I'm only going to talk some small details here since I'm still working on it and something for a signature and maybe even a penname for my art. Now, Tokusatsu, we know is for special effects heavy live action works, but the thing I'm taking away here, is that of Henshin Heroes. Ultraman, Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, and the like. So, there will be people transforming into armored heroes and the like, complete with absurd motifs and themes, which will serve as some of the main focus in this project. There will also be lots of easter eggs and references to Tokusatsu works, because I enjoy them so much.
If I had to make a comparison of what this would be similar to, it would be something like "One Punch man (for the series' world, not OP hero beating everyone), Hero Factory, and a bit of Kamen Rider Build," though, I'm still working on it, this is the best I can come up with at this moment. So, some details I'm going to share right now, is that there will be an in-universe Sentai, each member assigned to a certain jurisdiction, which shares inspiration from Local Heroes and One Punch Man's Hero System. Each are designated by color, hence the Sentai comparison, but unlike Sentai, each member has their own theme, like Kamen Rider in a way, and that doesn't include the other "factions."
The aesthetic for the world is a mix of cyberpunk neon lights and retro science fiction (think Showa Ultraman attack teams or Johnny Quest), but most of all, I don't want to make things look overly complicated or overdesigned, which I've noticed a lot of modern things tend to do (I'm also somewhat guilty of that, so I'm trying to change that), and just because I like the aesthetic of retro science fiction.
I do have an idea of the tone, a bit of deconstruction, but not overly dark, I'm not trying to make Evangelion here, I want there to be lighthearted and entertaining moments, because I know there's a strange fascination with making everything dark, gritty, and edgy, and I don't want to be one of those people. Of course, there's also things (like Marvel) that add humor just because, so I hope I don't add anything forced or annoying into my work, and also trying to avoid modern superhero tropes and multiverse nonsense (more on that another time).
I'll probably post art, characters, and settings later, but for now, these are just some of the things I wish to add into this project.
