Colors TCG 4th Anniversary - Day 04

[astralfire]

Happy Colors Anniversary, players! Have you ever wanted people to tell you their favorite books, or movies, or television shows, but all they give you is a list of names or titles, and you have no idea if you'll like them?

The remedy for your pain is simple! They will now be required to tell you a synopsis instead! So for this discussion, everyone will comment with a brief (or not so brief) synopsis of their favorite manga or anime written by themselves! That means no copying and pasting the synopsis from the Internet! There should be no directors' names or writers' names or illustrators' names, and no titles in your comment! There should also really be no character names, or it will be too easy! You're trying to challenge your fellow Colors players!

Others can feel free to guess the title or name of the manga or anime you described, or you can go guess others', but don't worry, no one has to guess it in order for you to receive your rewards! Merely posting a synopsis will get you the prizes!

To sum up the rules:
● Post a self-written synopsis of your favorite manga or anime. (It can be an animated film too!)
● Don't include titles, directors, illustrators, or writers! Try not to include character names either, or it may be too easy of a guess!
● Here is a /r/books example of how to play.
● Feel free to go guess what other people's favorite manga or anime is!
● For your synopsis, you will receive fourstival04 and two random crayons!

Please use this form when making your comment!

cries about this series

[steakmilk]

I bring you guys an obscure one. . . ;)

Player name: Narwhal
Synopsis: Genetic engineering has come along way and the creation of clones is quite common. The scientist known as the "father of genetic engineering" was murdered along with his wife, leaving behind only one son. What was once seen as a modern marvel of science has now become too widely available, and the black market has gotten ahold of it for their own purposes and human trafficking. The young boy that had lost his family has now grown into a young man just beginning military school. He finds it hard to keep to himself as everyone around him speculates whether or not he himself is a product of genetic manipulation and blames him for his father's shortcomings. Despite his bitterness surrounding the death of his parents and his drive for revenge, he manages to find peace and friendship within his room mate. The things they will be able to achieve together will surprise them both in the years to come.

[commandant]

Well if we're limited to anime and manga that makes it easier for me

Player name: Caitie
Synopsis: Two horrible broken adults/heterosexual life partners take on odd jobs around the crime ridden city they live in. Also featuring extensive flashbacks of the main duo as sad neglected/abused children and how their lives became irreversibly intertwined. Noteable for its gorgeous art and cast of emotionally complex and flawed characters, with ample representation of disability, addiction, and predjudice.

[astralfire]

oh god i love this mangajfuisdhfg I randomly did a marathon reading of it a while back, and I couldn't stop. I need to catch up with it!

[reneetwist]

Player name: ReneeTwist
Synopsis: This girl is looking for a guy who smells like flowers. She enlists the help of two men with a Red Oni/Blue Oni dynamic to protect her along the way, but really they just want to duel to the death with each other. Swordfights, traveling and wondering where their next meal is going to come from ensues.

[eyvindur]

[tomato]

Player name: Chelsea
Synopsis: Two hikikomori gamer siblings are thrown into a world that revolves around games. Through their intelligence and skill, they quickly become king and queen of the human race and fight to reclaim the humans' territory and pride. Their ultimate goal is the entire world, so they can challenge and beat God in a game.

[ryner]

Player name: Senren
Synopsis: An apprentice shoulder angel and apprentice shoulder devil trapped in the same body attempt to duke it out over the soul of a depressed young girl, but they just end up looking cute.

[astralfire]

This is so obvious and already done

[whimsyy]

Player name: Whimsy
Synopsis: A teen sets sail to find the greatest treasure and become the king. Along the way he makes many many friends (some he recruits to become part of his crew), pisses off tons of important and powerful people who he beats up when they threaten his friends, and eats lots of meat.

Also fruits that give you weird powers, flashbacks that make you cry every time, and the wonderful, magical power of friendship.

[astralfire]

[aaveplsgo]

Player name: Aave
Synopsis: A guy's entire family is horribly murdered. He sets out to prove that the murderer wasn't a witch, but turns out to be hideously incompetent at it. In the ensuing confusion a large cast of characters proceeds to argue, troll each other, and drink ridiculous amounts of tea. Don't watch the anime version, though. The original VNs are so much better.

[suguro]

I didn't watch or read this, but all my friends told me about it! Maybe I should get into it at last.

[anruik]

Player name: Anrui
Synopsis: A strawberry ruins a death god's life. Hijinks insue.

(I had to, the punning possibilities were too great)

[astralfire]

[advancing]

Player name: Liz.
Synopsis: A group of police officers who are all female are tasked with protecting Tokyo, Japan from supernatural threats from creatures who are seeking to destroy the world. Apparently, pollution is a real bad problem in another world, hence the attack!

[astralfire]

[shinsengumi]

Man, ask me to do this for any of my favourite games and I'd be set, but manga/anime...

Player name: Fel
Synopsis: A scarred master swordsman renounces killing and becomes a lowly wanderer who will only draw his sword inversely. Despite this severe self-inflicted handicap, he remains one of the most swift and skilled swordsmen in Japan, and defeats many foes who haunt him.

[minteaprince]

Oro, I think I know this, de gozaru-

[nidoking]

Player name: Raven

Synopsis: everybody dreams of being the very best
that no one ever was-
So a bunch of youngsters like to challenge each other through world tournaments. They take magnificent, noble, and legendary creatures and shove them into tiny pieces of plastic/metal, which they then throw at each other. Sometimes, they train from childhood and it's apparently really serious business. A group of boys form a team and now they aim for the top. Shenanigans ensue. Everybody really likes watching these boys throw their plastic/metal things into an assortment of bowls and let them duke it out. As typical of these types of series, they all have a catchphrase, which in English, can be used as a analogy for very intense farting, albeit that's probably not the intended effect.
No one even knows what's happening to this series at the moment.

Synopsis: Plenty of chess analogies. Two boys, with the same birthday and even the same face, are the best of friends. They now have to kill each other in the name of a game, or a hella lotta people die. However they have a lot of super loyal pretty boys that fight for each other, so it's kinda like a Pokemon match.
Although it isn't a bl series, I'm pretty sure everyone is gay.

Synopsis: Somebody killed the angelic perfect onii-chan of a gang, and now they're out for blood. Some bureaucratic dogs like to do roll call really dramatically. There are golden bunnies and they're fabulous. The best characters are the samurai vacuum cleaners. The main character is some clueless, but very suspicious boy who longs for a waifu. Everyone sets shit on fire. The lord of this country lives in a balloon. This country is ruled by the whims of a giant slab of rock. I am very mad about this series.

Synopsis: students get transported into another realm, where they learn about how important bonds are between friends. Also don't lose your scrap of paper. There's a really great party, and you're all invited. Your host would love to entertain you. It's going to be held at an elementary school, and she's going to bring all her fellow classmates.

Synopsis: PEGASUSU FUANTAJIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII-
Everyone dies. Everyone.

there's no point in me even writing this since everyone knows what I like-

[blinkingrune]

"there's a really great party and you're invited"

IT'S NOT A GREAT PARTY

YOU LIE

[estamir]

Player name: Sammich
Synopsis: A kid and a talking motorcycle go on a really long road trip. Philosophy ensues.

[mouseychuu]

Player name: Mousey
Synopsis: After leaving their native planet to colonize a much more distant one, a group of military colonists finds themselves at odds with the original inhabitants of their new planet. They "come home" to gather an important resource: a precious flower that grows only on that planet. The two groups engage in all-out war, and neither faction's stubborn, war-hawk elders appear willing to budge an inch, even while the young are wrestling with wartime ethics, suffering, and dying. A single squadron of the colony's military steps up to become a key player in resolving the bitter, bloody conflict.

[astralfire]

[instrumentality]

Player name: Lee
Synopsis: A sort-of but not totally human goes through everyday life trying to be 'normal', but weird things keep occurring around them anyway. They're surrounded by hot girls, all of which flirt with said character in one way or another, and they have to help them with their... 'issues'.

Also there's talking. A lot of talking. STILL TALKING.

[astralfire]

[adurotum]

Player name: Ten
Synopsis: Two brothers have a stabbing contest for no apparent reason while a girl shoots at them with her bazooka between having father issues. Also an attempt at lessons in humanity was made.

[astralfire]

[aurorawing]

Player name: Hollie
Synopsis: A group of kids at camp find themselves in another world, and then become friends and partners with some monsters. While looking for a way home, they fight evil and grow as people.

Their adventure in the other world is months long, but they're also back home within just a couple of days of leaving...

this is probably super obvious

[astralfire]

[buttmage]

Player name: Coops
Synopsis: A girl becomes housekeeper for a family that are sitting on a rather interesting secret: when they're hugged by members of the opposite sex, they turn into zodiac animals!

[astralfire]

[ravengown]

Player name: Adina
Synopsis: A basketball player who'd traditionally be terrible (he's not tall, he can't shoot and he can barely handle strenuous physical activity) takes advantage of his lack of presence around other people to become a "shadow" on the court. With the help of his more traditionally athletic new friend and the rest of his rag-tag high school team, he vows to defeat the members of his middle school team, who have gone down various dark paths.

is this what all those cute cat cards we have are from

[possibilityleft]

Player name: Dove
Synopsis: It's rather like a harem anime, plus cats. The main character ends up owning a major favor to some cats. He has to help cats wherever he goes, while at the same time dealing with a bunch of women who know nothing about his quest and often actively interfere with it and distract him from it. That will probably work out for the better in the end.
