For The Anime-Tards!

Xin Chao, this is Megumi with her 19th Contest~! All Are Welcome! ♥

Hey everyone! I hope you like
-Japan
-Anime and
-utter insanity, because that's what I hope to see here!

To get some muse, here are some ideas.
This si what I want you to do:
1) Pick a show/manga book. If you have another, just do taht.
2) Pick some key words/themes I've listed with them. If you have others, again, use them. THE POINT IS TO INCORPERATE MAIN THEMES OF THIS MANGA, NOT TELLING ME WHAT HAPPNES IN THE MANGA. GOT IT???

-Naruto:::: the Akatsuki--themes of vengeance and spilt blood and purple nailpolish-, couples--impossible love, the nine tailed fox, the village hidden n the leaf(or as SAF says, THE VILLAGE HIDDEN IN THE PIE!!) WHAT I WOULD LOVE TO SEE: Choose a character and pick his main image. Here are some:

Hyuuga Neji: Bird in Cage
Rock Lee: Lotus Blossom
Haruno Sakura: A flower in bloom
Uzimaki Naruto: demon fox


-BOBOBO:::I have not seen this yet, BUT ID LOVE TO! Talk about Wiggin' Out, or Czar Baldy Bald IV---make NOSEHAIRS poetic!

-Sailor Moon::: Make illusions to the Moonlight, a hidden power deep within, bishoujou cuteness! talk about your masked tuxedo, or your pet cats---ANYTHING

-Card Captor Sakura: The power of the cards (NO TAROT STUFF, just innocent make-belive magic, like CCS.), her yellow bear thingee whose name i forget at the moment...

-Tsubasa::: Sacrifice for love, feathers, vengeance of the blade, MOKONA!!!!,

-Wolf's Rain:::: Wolves, smiling in the face of death (so just have a contrast of life and death really)

-SAINT TAIL: Holy magic, Catholic Church, may the Blessings of God be with us always, of the night, bows and ribbons

-PEOPLE SEEM TO NOT GET THAT YOU CAN DO MORE THAN THESE> If I list options, they are usually just to get you thinking. EXPAND. Go beyond. You don't need my concent.

Rules:
1) MAKE IT POETIC AND BEAUTIFUL! I don't want a description of the plot---I want creativity, beauty, themes-what poems have. GOOD IMAGES. Just-on an anime topic. I'm tired of seeing "anime" poems that aren't really---poems.

2) MAKE IT CLEAN! I've seen WAY TOO MUCH manga that goes over the edge erotically and language wise----change that. NO YAOI OR YURI. I believe that they are wrong, but I love Yaoi/Yuri people, so don't call me close minded. Manga is not abotu sex or crude language-its about a lovely form of art. Let's keep it pure.

3) MAKE IT ANIME ISH. Make sure to KEEP IT WITH YOUR ANIME. I dont' want poems just vaguely about death or life. I want it to be an incorperation of the anime with themes, if that makes sense. Keep the lighthearted cuteness or dark beauty of the anime, yet give it dimention. We are moving on from 2-D anime sketches and giving them proportion, depth and shading.


4) READ MY RULES. I'm tired after nearly 20 contests of people blowing me off and writing about sex. I AM A CHRISTIAN, and I do not delight in crude language, sex, bashign of God--keep my rules. Its my turf. I can kick you out if I wish. So, to see that you read my rules, put: "May the youthful force be with you"

5) STICK TO WHAT YOU PICK. IF you pick to use your OC and his/her theme (perhaps?), MAKE IT BELIEVABLE. Give DEPTH to this stuff. If you pick anoter theme, make sure to be weaving the theme and characteristics unique to that story (such as people, places, situation).

6) HAVE FUN. I hope that I'm making sense; if not, lemme know. In the meantime, write some stuff. Don't be offended if I'm critical in my comments.

The best of luck for all of you. May a thousand suns shine upon you!

Megumi

    Ha. I'm totally bookmarking this. I just got to figure out which anime I would use, seriously. There's so many I've seen. I'm probably going to use maybe fullmetal alchemist or death note, simply because those were the ones I watched recently. That's okay right since they're not on your list and all...
