the last time i pitched my idea in these threads it became real
What about this:
A postapocalyptic world, where x civilization is reduced to Stone age life, but their remains ancient ruins from the height of their time.
Truly original, right? Never been done before
Get me a meeting with a bigshot exec and I'll tell them.
What was it, user?
Forced trap cum inflation cat alien tentacle dick gangbang in space
Isn't that a good thing?
Not that anyone posting on Yea Forums would ever actually get their own show.
I've got a ton of them, but why are you asking here?
I want to make the Evangelion of Capeshit Cartoons
Make a great Spider-family TV show?
The adventures of a group of fantasy knights as they protect their realm and uphold the law
Then it shifts to the realities of warfare as nation 1 and nation 2 fight over the inheritance of small nation 3
Will the band go rogue? Will they stay loyal? Do they truly believe in what they are fighting for?
Lycan academy
After WWll, all werewolves have to enroll in an academy to control their werewolf abilities. After they are offered jobs in security.
Show follows a kid who everyone believed was a werewolf but actually a Chupacabra. Which were werewolves experimented by Nazi's in WWll. Which made them super powerful.
i suggested something like archer in space and a few months later the space season of archer came out
I would watch it. make it fully conan except wizards would just be a guy who figured out how to use a gun or run electricity.
I had a similiar idea
>your usual Grimdark fantasy
>but it's actually post-nuclear-apocalypse and nobody knows because most survivors forgot how to read
>old world technology is considered magical artifacts and people who use them wizards
>mythical creatures are just highly mutated animals and people
>main hero is a barbarian who got the idea of becoming one from a comic book (from only looking at the pictures)
so it's basically about a nuclear wasteland of blissful LARPers
Mermaid for sale
Little shorts of a sailor trying to sell a mermaid. The mermaid is crude, and tries her best not to get sold.
For example she'll say that "mermaids eat penis's"
Ok fine, here's one idea that I'd like to become real.
Two witch sisters from another dimension get banished to a rural American town in the 1970s that happens to be haunted by supernatural activity and eldritch abominations.
>high fantasy setting
>starts with a team of heroes preparing an assault on the evil wizard king
>it's a suicide mission and they know it, but they still gotta do it to free their realm
>they knock the throne room doors down and the wizard just sits there alone covered in robes from head to toe
>the party charges for the wizard
>he just silently begins to fling mad fucking spells at them as if rolling a 20 every time
>his attacks are actually some beyond-magic bullshit and they obliterate most of the heroes in literal seconds
>an elven archer is the only one left
>the wizard manages to mortally wound her and now she's crawling away
>wizard prepares to finish her off, but gets cut halfway through the shoulder from behind by a warrior
>the warrior starts speaking as if it's over but the wizard starts heating up
>he's literally heating up and soon the robes burst into flame
>along with the axe and the one holding it, quickly burning throught his flesh
>the axe is melted and there's no trace of any injury on the wizard's body
>his ripped god-tier Chad body
>as the warrior rolls on the floor screaming in agony. the wizard, who looks like pic related now, starts monologuing
>he tells the warrior in his dying moments that he's not a wizard king, or even a wizard at all
>he's the actual all-powerful God of this realm just fucking with it for amusement
>terrorizing the realm and then awaiting brave heroes to toy with them just for fun
>by the time he finishes his speech the warrior is already dead
>but the elf has escaped
>God acknowledges that, but doesn't give a shit because there's nothing anyone in that world could ever do to him
>The story follows the elven archer forming a new party to find a way to defeat God while he just kinda fucks around with them out of boredom
Akuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
That's basically the premise. Here's the ending:
>the new party tricks God into using really powerful reality-bending shit and only the elf and mage survive
>as he's getting ready to finish them off, an enormous shadow looms over him
>by releasing this much arcane energy he got the attention of an eldritch planet-sized creature from the depths of cosmos
>he tries to fling all sorts of magical shit at it, but all the projectiles are just consumed on impact
>it grabs God with a long-ass tentacle, disintegrates him and consumes the released divine energy
>turns around and begins floating away
>elf: "Why did it decide to live us alone? Was it compassion?"
>mage: "It came here to feast on a God. Our world is but a crumb of bread in its eyes."
And then they lived happily ever after in a world completely devoid of magic, eventually becoming a modern high-tech society just like ours.
You shouldn't have done that .
>It only really gets worse from here
Quasi Eldritch Horror about a young man going to a high school in small town America where odd happenings keep, well, happening. Cults, sickness in the land, people who are not human, rats that stand on two legs and try to scam people.
Plan is as of now just to make it a bunch of standalone stories for one off episodes and eventually plan big events to be the season finales. Eldritch Horror and surreal horror is actually a broad term that covers a lot of shit and I can just mad libs shit I've found.
Also homosexual degeneracy.
An Eldritch God's in mind, or you just going to do Cthulhu
I'm not going to directly borrow a god from the Mythos. Maybe expy one that fits but Cthulhu or a Cthulhu expy is not going to be done because this explicitly takes place in a land locked location.
I don't really have a cartoon idea but I do have an idea for a villain.
The villain is a small spirit which possesses a weather doll. For it to get stronger, it feeds off misery, anger and sadness. If it can't find any, it makes some by possessing someone who it believes to be a great source of misery and let them wreck havoc among the place. As soon as the spirit gets all of the negative energy it can get, it makes the host body kill themselves. The host body's soul is then kept by the spirit and farmed for even more negative energy. The spirit wants to rule over the multiverse with its negative energy.
I'd link to a outline of mines, but here's the rundown
>The main character's a teenager named Ed
>His brother's named Dave
>They have powers from a special crystal
>One day, Ed decides to go to a a tournament
>Said tournament turns out to be a trap by an evil alien king
>Ed and Dave fight him at the tournament, but they are defeated
>They survive and fight off various monsters
>They can't do it themselves, so along the way they meet a girl named Tenshi
>Tenshi is inhabited by a spirit named the Maiden
>There's also an android named Striker
>Together, they fight off some aliens
These are some rad tags dog
Speaking of eldritch horror, I once had this idea for a story about a guy who's slowly turning into a Great Old One in mind. As in, his mind is slowly starting to function on their logic more and more, and losing more and more of his humanity. It's only a matter of time before things that used to make sense start feeling like they don't. And he's looking for a cure, obviously.
A show disguised as not-Earthbound that tackles today's brand of cartoons like the Simpsons tackled the brand of family sitcoms of its "today."
That's just mental illness b
A prophecy foretells a powerful evil settling upon the land when tensions are high and war threatens many countries. A grandfather takes over the care and training for his recently orphaned twin grandsons while they are still young. The show would focus on them as teenagers in their late teens, possibly on the cusp of young adulthood. The older twin is more of a typical fighter while also being in tune with the element of fire like his father and grandfather. The younger twin doesn't seem to have any sort of elemental affinities, he does seem to forge quick kinship with animals, but he can at least fight physically. Both are calm and quiet, but can be fairly blunt while speaking, though the younger twin has and is willing to show a little more compassion to those who have actually earned it.
Starts off with the twins and grandfather adjusting to their new lives. The grandfather is a bit harsh and ruthless with his training, but he does care and he shows it in small ways. As they train, the grandfather takes note of their abilities and helps them where they need it. Episodes would jump ahead with their ages, though just small jumps to show progression up until said teenage/young adult years. The finale would be the prophecy coming into fruition, and the big bad manages to wound the grandfather heavily. In order to save his family, the elder twin forces the younger twin to take their grandfather and run while he tries to by them as much time as possible. Both the grandfather and the younger twin protest, but the older twin refuses to take no for an answer and forces them to run. The last thing either of them sperand hear are flames engulfing the area and piercing scream.
(Continued next post)
The second season would revolve around the grandfather trying to help his now only grandson to cope with the loss of someone who was so close. It would also have the younger twin expressing that he feels guilty about what happened, and that he felt utterly useless compared to the other two. He wants to get stronger, not only to get revenge, but to also help protect the only family he has now. The grandfather tells him that he has a talent with animals, and should use it to become a beast tamer of sorts. He agrees, but still wishes to learn more about physical fighting and fighting with weapons just in case no animals are around or he can't call on them for some reason. The first animal he makes a pact with is a large cat, either a white tiger or a saber tooth, can't decide. However this is only done after about a week of tracking the beast and then proving it could trust him.
That's all I have so far other than other planned pacts include a wyvern, some sort of aquatic beast, and something gore sentient, who is gore creature than person.
A group of kids trying to get by in a portside town. The Middle School is rundown and looks more like a prison, the town combines the worst elements of both California and Innsmouth. Meaning disgusting fishlife, insane homeless people, gang warfare, brutal bullying, jaded teachers, the occasional cult lurking in the shadows... Yeah.
Meant to type "more", not gore. Goddamn autocorrect.
The protagonist is name Chet.
Chet plays a trumpet in a school band, is a regular student and has his group of friends and his gf, bassicaly he has a regular life.
But the thing is that his friends start to get in surreal and epic adventures without him.
He starts to realize that he's the background character of his friends (even gf) adventures, and his main goal through the series it's his attemps to be part of the countless and diverse adventures that he's missing.
A nymphomaniac goes around killing stupid celebrities like the Kardashians or Justin Bieber while stringing around a barely legal looming guy to join her in her spree of crimes and debauchery.
>action cartoon that hearkens back to classic gi-joe
>distant future sci-fi setting where corporations run the world and private militaries are commonplace
>follows the clandestine elite task force employed by one of the "good" PMCs
>they fly around the world, keeping the tenuous peace and thwarting the evil plans of their leading competitor which is lead by cybernetically enhanced psychos hellbent on sowing political unrest and destabilizing regions to ensure the money and contracts keep flowing
>main character is the new guy who is severely under-qualified and only got on the team by successfully bullshitting his resume and job interview
>first op gets hairy and his incompetence begins to show, but saves the mission with a sudden act of heroism that earns his team's respect and convinces his CO not to get him fried
>everyone use fancy future gadgets and pew pew laser guns
A shitty idea like that can be animated in any way you want and still be watchable
This is such an esoteric idea I adore it
>Superman cartoon, titled "The Man of Tomorrow"
>Highly futuristic sci-fi bent to it, maybe some Fleischer for flavor
>Metropolis is a super-city founded by Lex Luthor as the City of Tomorrow
>Crime is non-existent, medicine is so incredible that citizens live to their late 90s on average, everyone is superficially happy
>But Metropolis runs like a company town where instead of money you're paid in Metro credit, meaning you possess no capital outside of Metropolis; you're permanently under Luthor's thumb and he owns everything in the City, which he abuses under the table.
>Superman comes as a rural outsider from Kansas, a stranger to the city's ways, and haphazardly blows the lid on the intense corruption running through the city through his do-gooding
>Superman's supporting cast is familiar but tweaked:
>Lois is a frustrated reporter in a city with no news that gets a guilty thrill of Superman's arrival causing chaos and letting her break the story on Luthor's corruption
>Jimmy is a vain blogger type that records Superman for attention and slowly gets swept up into believing in his cause and using his social media as a platform for Supes' message
>Cartoon is episodic but has a running subplot of both Superman and Lex Luthor battling for public perception of the title of "Man of Tomorrow", Luthor trying to keep control of Metropolis while Superman tries to unshackle them from blissful dependence. Action comes from Superman battling Luthor's goons as well as brand new criminals and supervillains that pop up as side effects of Luthor's grip on the City slipping, which Luthor capitalizes on to paint Superman as a dangerous extremist bringing danger and crime to his perfect city.
>Greater themes of whether peace is worth being owned like property, if it's better to know the truth or live in blissful ignorance, and whether the future of humanity lies in safety or bold risks.
>have an idea I’d like to make into something
>too unskilled and lazy to do anything about it
>still have that sliver of ambition to make it happen
>don’t want to share it with anyone in case they steal it and do it before I can
It’s never gonna happen, but I still dream about it
an edgelord reddit user
(yes i will pay a license fee if it means this faggot can be a reddit tard) is transported to a world of talking animals and becomes the defacto suaron by crash landing right in the middle of the fox empresses wedding and snapping the neck of her soon to be husband of the wolf kingdom all while screaming "IT WAS HER TIME!!!!" after reading (with the limited amount of wifi he had left mind you) that donald trump won the 2016 election
he gains the reputation through out the six kingdoms as an omen of the dark lords return return and every other day the empress is sending out mercenaries to kill his skinny ass, although through luck he defeats them time and time again
yadda yadda yadda, "political commentary" blah blah blah "mocking of modern culture "
that kind of shit
I can dig it. Try watching Muromi-san - your concept sounds similar (a crude mermaid), so that show may give you some further inspiration.
Is the trap the one with the cat attributes or the tentacle creature?
I feel you user. I want to turn my idea into a book, Turning 30 next year. My goal come Hell or highwater is by 31 I have something I can submit to a publisher, Goddamnit!
It's a urban fantasy, that reverses the Hansel and Gretel story. Three trouble maker teens end up setting an old lady house on fire after she puts a curse on the town.
Neat, will do!
Ace Combat: The Series
Only two things
>ATLA characters x FF elemental chart system, "nations", espers, complex main argument, many parallel character subarcs, at least 1 tragic death & nice final
>Direct sequel with all mentioned previously with TLOK characters x Yakuza detailed combat storytelling & setting (80's, just like 0)
Actually i have the idea emboided in a novel
A parody of high school shows where a socially awkward loser is repeatedly almost murdered. Genre varies from science fiction to urban fantasy and anything in between.

Not gonna pitch my whole pilot in this thread but I'm making a cartoon about an alien moss dude travelling thru space just fucking around and saving planets most of the time without noticing while going about his business.
thats not exactly an idea, and also it takes more than a few months for a season of a series to be made, so this is just you being unoriginal
Source on this art?
okay so there's this housecat right, but it has these big fucking huge tits
Mc is the last pilot guarding a seed ship the size of a space colony to earth. He is alone with millions of drones that he commands to guard the ship. Along the way a perceived alien force seems to constantly be attacking him, starting off with similar drones but then more advanced combat units.
After entering Earth orbit the mc has a final battle against the aliens. Through circumstances I have yet to develop the mc figures out that he is actually fighting humans, and that they are an advanced AI sent to destroy earth from again undeveloped reasons. The seed ship actually being a drone factory and kamikaze bomb that will wipe out all life on the planet. Dunno how it ends yet.
Really want to do a lot of lonely shots with the mc repairing vast areas of the ship but getting called out to fight midway through, drones flying about but no human life, I human living conditions but a make-do life style. Slow combat, either semi-humanoid mechs or star ships. Really want to play up how "evil" the human military looks but reveal its purpose to be in good nature.
I want to see a cartoon where a rational sleptic™
Is a journalist who accompanies a conspiracy theorist that is on par with Alex Jones on a quest to the hollow earth where the rational skeptic™
Gets proven wrong by the conspiracytard every time. When they are in the hollow earth they are fighting nazis and the reptilians. But general the cartoon would be focusing on uncovering conspiracies and fighting the reptilian socialist Zionist new world order.

My idea is basically Scott pilgrim meets the boys. In a world where this popular children’s card game called “warzone monsters” the monsters in the game are real but needs to be hidden from the humans. But, when a mythical monster from the card game is out loose in public and causing trouble... you call the “SPELLSLINGERS”. An underground team of experts who can take down these other worldly beings. And if the monsters are unleashing there dark side and depravity. The Spellslingers have to “Take them out of the picture”.
I also, don’t just want to have them just fight the card game monsters too. I want to see them fight other characters from other pieces of “Fandom” like them ripping anime skulls or fighting the characters in a video game as well
Nicktoons Unite in the same vein as Justice League/Unlimited and Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Just add Aang and XJ9 to the team along with their villains for the Syndicate and you got a big season 1 from the first game alone. Just set it in an AU where all the shows had their series finale and from there you have creative freedom going forward without messing up past lore for each show.
What do you guys think? Obviously it couldn't be a cartoon in this state, but with a little reworking I think it could work
Elf: The Animated Series.
OK KO but all the characters are adult and the show is on Adult Swim. Also same thing for Adventure Time, Flapjack, Gumball, and Chowder. I want that early 2000s Selab/Space Ghost vibe with the newer cartoons. Preferably with the OG animators instead of flash though.
Something very much like Tarzan where you follow the adventures of an apeman in another time or world where vast swaths of the globe were still dark. He does battle with savage predators, cannibal tribes, greedy explorers, and evil sorcerers. Scouring scorching deserts in search of lost cities, diving in perilous bays to find shipwrecks, teaming up with friendly tribals and frontiersmen in defeating evil.

You pitched Generator Rex?
Not bad.
>have a really detailed, thought-out story planned out
>it's a fancomic so it instantly loses all credit in these threads
>any time some fuckwad exec wannabe comes in these threads to comment on the ideas i get "durrr not original"
A cute young woman has to help a badass ghost solve his murder. He can possess her to interact with the physical world, allowing for action scenes, but he's also very lecherous so we get to see a lot girls kissing girls(or if we can get a higher rating, sweet sweet "lesbian" sex.

Mine's no better
A kid has his parents abducted by aliens. Now he's a teenager and has finally tracked down the aliens that took them. He breaks into their facility and gets caught. This facility, however, is dedicated to studying Earth and protecting it from outside threats, so the human is hired as a ship washer. Over time, he learns about the different aliens that work there and the worlds they come from, and also about some really messed-up stuff that happened in the past that they may or may not have to prevent from happening again.
>makes some wish upon a falling star that his parents would go away
>the falling star is a ufo
Basically writes itself after your pitch.
I unironically never thought of that. I may consider it as a beginning to the story.
Mah Buddy
>set in the future
>some unknown catalyst causes gender ratios to be massively skewed, so only 1 boy is born for every 100 girls
>the men given cushy but sheltered lives while the women have to fight a space war (in mechs)
>main cast is all girls (and a boy who is disguised as a girl in order to serve in the military)
>like 20% of the show is about cool robot fights, the other 80% is just teen girls discussing Seinfeldian shit while the mechs are undergoing repairs

i think you mean jimmy neutron the movie
The story of the Genesis Ark, while using characters from the Sumerian Ark story as well as the flood story's of the Greeks but in a futuristic dystopian nightmare chalk full of ancient astronauts, a suitcase which contains the DNA and the genetic sequencing of all life on the Deluvian earth. Featuring City States high in the atmosphere.All powerful beings so far advancedfrom our homonid ancestors that they'd genetically altered them to be a slave labor force but instead mimic our god like creators until they decide we'd tasted the fruits of knowledge, if we stumble on the secrets of eternal life we could be as the gods themselves.
Some background on the Greek Characters I'd use in the story as a focal point:
Warned by his father, the immortal Titan Prometheus, Deucalion built an ark to survive the coming Bronze Age-ending flood that Zeus sent to punish mankind for its wickedness. Deucalion and his cousin-wife, Pyrrha (daughter of Prometheus' brother Epimetheus and Pandora), survived for 9 days of flooding before landing at Mt. Parnassus.
All alone in the world, they wanted company. In answer to this need, the Titan, and goddess of prophecy Themis cryptically told them to throw the bones of their mother behind them. They interpreted this as meaning "throw stones over their shoulders onto Mother Earth," and did so. The stones Deucalion threw became men, and those Pyrrha threw became women.
I want to interweave a story of escape from a doomed but incredibly rich and robust socioty but the ultimate overlords decide they need to scrap our planet and let it heal by controling the populated areas with floods and ridding the planet of man who they've decided our the greatest evil, So Deucalion with the help of his father Prometheus, rescues his human mate and the Ark, outsmart Zeus and remarkably somehow survive into a sequel. Pandora's Revenge or Zeus strikes back.
i don't really give a shit about pitching my ideas to Yea Forums, but i am curious if any of you have any actual recommendations or experience in pitching cartoons for real. what sorts of experience would you need to have, screenwriting, storyboarding? how does one land a pitch interview? what do you need to have prepared?
Three strangers come to a lovely town full of friendly faces. All three of them admit they’re brothers, wonderful singing like no other, but only one of them shows his true, miserable face.
Recently, someone or something has plague the town with horrific incidents and mysterious murders. Hunters try to identify the footprints that are left behind in the scene. None of them can’t any other animal to identify them with. What they find instead is a common written message in blood, “GIVE ME THE BEAST OF SONG!”
I advise you to always have a great hook in your pitch. You want your ideas appear out of the bang so they’ll be coupled to listen. Final space is a YouTube pilot that manages to become an official series because of its amazing hook.
Generic superheroes and supervillains cartoon or book or something, I don't know. I have no ambition, so nothing will ever happen with it. I just have general ideas for characters and plotlines that will never come into fruition, so it just all plays out in my head like some major 'tism.
Are the heroes and supervillains on same page, exploiting the masses with money and fame by their false narrative?
Nah, I'm trying to work out this angle. Basically, the superhero team would be a collection of individual heroes who finally come together after solo careers or whatever. The villain early on would be the leader's former nemesis, but he gets locked up and told that he's underneath their league. Instead, they now face off against a generic team of strong supervillains. So then the former nemesis forms a team of former villains who have either been gypped by the generic villain team or have some other reason to want to be in the "major league".
The ragtag group of villains would initially try and take down the generic villain team, succeed, become a formidable group of villains, then face off against the heroes. Something like that, I think.
Can you please use different terms because I can’t keep up with this crap. It’s almost like you’re stumbling in text form.
Disney and Sony make a deal for Into the Spider-verse's art and animation style so that ALL Marvel Animation now comes with that comic book sound effect visual effect, thwak, Kirby bubbles, hatch lines, printed color dots, all of it. A comprehensive deal for video game rights, animation styles and technology and story control.
In exchange Sony gets to produce the kind of mature films that Lions Gate use to do for Disney, I am talking about how many of Spider-man's villains are werewolves or cyborgs or genetic mindfucks like clones etc.
That's it, that's "my" (how am I the only one saying this so supicious, it's getting kind of gross already) "idea" (it doesn't even seem like an idea, it's not even kind of obvious, it's more than totally obvious and logical. Hardly an idea).
A bunch of individual superheroes come together to form a superhero team. They're the Good Guys. Leader of Good Guys had a solo career where he faced off against a bunch of B- and C-listers. One of these guys was his nemesis.
Former Nemesis is no longer a credible threat because the Good Guys as a team could wipe him out easily. Instead, the Good Guys primarily face off against an A-list villain team.
Former Nemesis, jealous of the A-list villains, gathers a bunch of B- and C-listers to form a B-list team to take down A-list villains.
This takes place in a near future setting where technology is advanced enough to be able travel into other universes. The cartoon will be about man and woman who are multidimensional hitmen who take a bunch of targets as they venture out into the multiverse. They worked for a secret underground company which live streamed to a dark web like website which a selected few people across the multiverse can place gamble bets on assassins and targets on the basis of whether or not the assassin can eliminate the target under a certain time, if the assassin is not successful the person will lose their bet but if the assassin is successful the participating members will win. Assassins are based on rank, skill, rating and can actually get sponsorships from the members of the underground company .
>This sounds really autistic but it's just an idea I had in mind
Science fantasy setting with elements of biopunk. A guy who would be either a high school sophomore or graduate and his six friends (a jock, a Mexican guy, a ginger guy, a Spanish girl, a Chinese girl, and a girl genius who skipped one or two grades) meet a female AI who guides them to a planet in another dimension. They use knowledge from a magic tome and weapons powered by a mystical crystalline substance extracted from the planet to take on personas based on typical RPG classes (brawler, paladin, mage, druid, huntress, priestess with light and dark powers a la Warcraft, and engineer) and try to stop a gang war between a militaristic band of drow and a syndicate of star elves (high elves with time/space magic). When the syndicate's leader is removed from power, his replacement allies with a former colleague of the main character's parents and uses his extradimensional research to create a biomechanical doomsday weapon to destroy cities, but it gains self-awareness and instead decides to take over the continent before the heroes destroy it.
Later seasons have surtitles or subtitles added to the show's title and different casts a la Power Rangers or Kamen Rider. One of the seasons has a supernatural theme and stars a girl with demonic powers who fights alongside her fraternal twin brother, her two younger sisters, and a teenage shamaness with ghost powers against a cult who killed her father, who the MC seeks to surpass as a magical practitioner.
I like it! Begin boarding the pilot and remember, keep it tvY
A group of kids have make believe adventures (think like Backyardgians for an older demo) the numbers of kids per ep varies (up to twelve) but these four appear in every ep
>The generic protagonist
>A boisterous short kid
>Shorty's half brother, a big kid who constantly tries to keep his half brother safe
>The token tomboy character and Gene's pseudo love interest
When they play their make believe games, the characters transform into the characters they are playing
Example ep
>The kids make believe wrestling
>Generic Protag is the face
>Shorty is the heel
>Half-Bro is the referee
>Token Girl appears and wants to join in
>They let her be the girl who holds up the round signs, but that soon changes
Another character would be The Protag's pet Komondor (Hungarian sheepdog) who plays the role of beasts in their make believe games (like if it's a medieval setting, he's the dragon)
>Pitch your cartoon idea
A huge-tittied goth women in her early 30's buys a small haunted house because it was inexpensive and she's SUPER into the paranormal. Loves it. Never grew out of it.
Little does she know the house is ACTUALLY haunted: by a single teenage bed-sheet ghost in sneakers.
This is the goth woman's first actual 'real' exposure to the paranormal in her entire life: she's completely enthralled by this kid, isn't frightened in the slightest, and wants to fuck him/learn everything about the supernatural world. The ghost meanwhile just wants to scare her because this is his first 'gig' and he wants to do well, but every progressively more terrifying attempt he makes to scare her just fascinates and amazes her.
It'd be divided in 10-11 minute sections with each episode revolving around their various interactions and the developing relationship between them as they grow to genuinely like one another.
Magical girl cosmic horror. A dark comedy of errors where magical girls attempt to protect the people of a galactic empire from unspeakable terrors from the depths of the universe and fail miserably, but the scale of things makes their efforts irrelevant even if they succeed.

>Beatrice
Ex-agent for a horrifically violent black-ops program. Basically snatched as a baby and made into a guinea pig for the bleeding edge of augmentation tech. Picture Bruce Lee with an overclock to her reflexes/perception, denser bones/muscles, and is a shortpacked engine of destruction with big fluffy bunny ears. Loves the art and aesthetics of war, but has become disgusted by the reality of it: every hollow point a unique flower, the patter of combat a free-form jazz she cannot find anywhere else, but hating that it necessitates death and harm. Otherwise an upbeat, wholesome-seeming gal.
>"Paddy"
A second gen British-Pakistani woman forced to move to the US by her religious fanatic younger brothers. Due to a heart defect, she had a medical suite installed when she was little, but it was a bit in the early days of the truly "Live-In Doctor" tech, so when she started to bloom as a woman it saw it as a sickness and tried to fix it. Sure, managed to catch it, but she's stuck as a 4' nothing neotenic, raging against the injustice of her parents installing it and her appearance. Overcompensation is the name of the Game: black coffee, liquor drunk neat or a splash of lime juice. Secretly, she hates the game she plays. Mostly lives off of the malpractice suit she swindled out from under her parents. A wee woman seeping with piss and vinegar.
After a botched(due to Bea's amazing talent for violence) abduction, Paddy and Bea build a friendship, Bea finding her buried humanity, and Paddy seeing that there were far more horrific paths her life could have gone down, along with various cathartic moments as they roam around.
Women sitting on the main character's face. The MC bares a resemblance to me.
So. In a world filled with magic, super science and fantastical shit in general.
A young man is progressively more and more traumatized by various magical adventures he is forced on by fate and circumstance, going from a normal guy to a trying desperately not to die barely held together loser.
So the actual manner in which the show would be set up would be mini arcs similar to JLU. Small semi self contained adventures which with a few exceptions could be taken in, in any order, in a season. The reason the continuity is separated by season is that the season is the status quo reset. He either permanently gains a new ability, weapon or is forced to leave a location or trapped somewhere.
So yeah why not
It's called Suburban Knights. It's about a group of ambitious young dudes who try to make a name for themselves by opening a kind of private all-round problemsolver program. As the name implies they are knight themed and have all chosen a RPG based role like Paladin or Mage, based on mostly normal gadgets (cloaks are just bathrobes, weapons are things like baseballbats).
They frequently encounter either extremely supernatural problems or very basic stuff they actually don't wanna do.
They all share a love for metal and rock and it's a frequent stylistic gimmick of the show, also the artstyle and setting is inspired by a mix of dark souls and funky metal album covers.
>Characters
Not very fleshed out yet. They are heavily inspired by adultswim characteristics and the knights from monty pythons holy grail. The leader is thought out to be the MC and basically the only one who really wants to be a gloryshot and make the group well known, he also has a family he frequently embarasses or annoys with his project, the other two MCs are a bulllike yet short barbarian themed sportsfan and his friend a drug addicted alchemist. Others are still in the work. The group prays to a made up god that resembles Ozzy Osborne, which later turns out to be real.
The daughter of a prodigal engineer and the next stage in human evolution is a complete fat-ass loser fuckup, but she fights fascist space wasps, including the fascist space wasp that her mom is fucking.
World in Conflict/Red Dawn/Future War 198X but on a far wider scale.
It's an adult cartoon about a self support group made up of ex-supervillains. They go through rather casual group activities to help themselves like selling brownies or dare projects, but things almost always go wrong and the world kicks their asses causing them to learn nothing out of it and stay miserable.
Characters are a skeleton based villain who basically just torments people in his free time that pissed him off but because he's an anxious autist who can't deal with people he makes up elaborate plans, second is the HIQI (high iq individual) who's obsessed with his intellect and has a superiority complex as a result, though he never had one succesful plan, Jeremy the totally not alien who's not an alien (totally) and the support group leader, an ex sports teacher gone hero gone villain gone self-support group coach
what if pokemon replaced every pokemon with an anime girl?
that would result in thousands of shitty YT video montages called "Shigglypuff tries hard and is thicc and cute [funni emoji]"
i would uniorinally pitch a cartoon based on the bible and bible era fables but only the cool stories with lotss of fighting
Carebears series that slowly shifts the focus of the show on to anti-carebear villains and and builds a realistic world that explains why care-bears typically only work with privileged, suburban children in relatively healthy homes.
As the multi-episode story-arcs build the writing, art direction, and even music will be purposefully built to have a divisive effect on the fan base as we try to create two camps;
Edge-lord cringe faggots focused on the brooding/dark villains.
Preening faggots salivating over the pastel colored "heroes".
When the series gets canceled we'll blame the fans by saying we were concerned about how zealous and aggressive both camps were toward one another and ended the series to prevent violence.
Imagine a word populated with anthropomorphic people, their favourite thing is futuristic racing. We follow the adventures of a young rookie racer who discovers conspiracy behind his beloved sport.
Literally anything i just need to stop being a lazy faggot and actually work day by day instead of smoking weed and playing world of warcraft
sounds familiar
Space Mutiny, the animated series
But there have been CN showrunners that posted here before
In the old west, a dying outlaw sells his soul to a demon and is given immortality. Weapons still effect him (ie: he'll still be blown to bits by dynamite) but he can't die. Every time the outlaw kills, the demon companion gets stronger. There are other demons and gunmen out there, all of them want a chance to take on the Devil himself but only the last one standing can.
Daily lives of small town millenial gangsters.

It depends. Would the post apocalyptic world be the result of billiards playing cowboys with mustaches? Because that would be amazing.
You know, with the amount of cats some people keep I'm surprised nobodies attempted. Shot for shot remake with their cats.
Basically, modern day slice of life comedy/mystery show about a regular average ass sophomore student who's moved to the reativley small town of Devil's tail, Massachusetts. What he doesn't know is that the whole town acts like some shit out of a highschool teen movie or show, and he constantly has to deal with the bullshit of these charactitures of actual human beings while also trying to figure out the mystery of why the hell they're all acting like this.
There would be an arc some where in season 2 to the end of season 3 where he too slowly starts to turn into one of these stereotypes and him being in a race against time to stop it before he too becomes like everyone else in town.
I too would enjoy a Hyborian cartoon with mutant animals and guns
They don't meet with just anybody.
I have to come up with a story or style of comedy that suits my drawings
Try detective stories. At least that's what he looks like to me.
Are you guys me? I too have been having these concepts running around in my head. I even wrote down some notes if I ever develop a script for a comic book.
Good thread fill with excellent ideas.
Y'know, I know someone who had an idea for a cartoon.
It was this cartoon about a robot apocalypse in the 1930s/40s. It takes heavy inspiration from work of the early/mid 20th century, from novels to cartoons to film. It sort of has this art-deco aesthetic, and the apocalypse also had this really unique style. Instead of being destroyed and stuff, it's more like everyone just vanished. Everything is in mostly working condition, yes, but there's a profound emptiness and quiet to it all.
We followed two characters: A little girl (Heavily inspired by Shirley Temple), and a teenager as they try to survive, find the truth, and maybe encounter some other stuff.
Would be so hot if they made the MC black and then the poor white girl would have to helplessly lust for his dick 'till the end of the series, haha.
Two gigolos travel from town to town, trying to swindle local women into giving them money.
Hijinx ensure.
I am almost certain it was Carmen Sandiego.
Not a cartoon, but I have an idea for a reality show where we hire models to hit on ugly people. Eventually the host would pop out and reveal the whole thing and ask them why they'd think anyone would be attracted to them. I think you could do similar stuff too like offer high paying jobs to unskilled people.
I had an idea for a reality TV Show. It's called
>Your A Horrible Person
The show starts off where each contestant are given a lump some of money. They are given a series of challenges. Each loser get's money taken away from their lump some. This goes on until only 1 person has money.
The twist is that when a person loses money, it's actually donated to a charity. The idea being if you win, you've been fighting to keep money away from charity.
>You're A Horrible Person
I suggest
>You're A Horrible Person!
If absolutely need that title, or
>You're Bad!
Because a snappy, two-syllable title will stick in the heads of your target audience more easily.

Fuck storytelling, how about actual panel to panel sequential writing? What do we fill these panels with?
Information. Be efficient and understand patterns. Then, use the tempo of the scene you want to set and deliver information to allude to upcoming events.
If you're making a comedy, understand comedic timing. Then, tell the viewer something that will be important later, using the desired tone as a framework for the exact events that transpire.
Basically, you can't "fuck storytelling" and get anything that evokes actual emotions, because every scene or page or even few sentences should be a microcosm of storytelling.
Any advice on learning rhythm?
10 minutes of these two idiots fucking around
Some college students sit around in a room for 30 minutes smoking weed, drinking, and wisecrack quirky toilet humor pretentiously.
Alright, gonna brainroll and see where this goes.
It'd be a show/film basically based on the concept of synesthesia, using sound and visuals that through correlation with the other gives form to a audiovisual story.
Example, you have a scene where two people are having a conversation. Their voices are translated into visual effects, that morph depending on what they're saying, by the energy they express themselves, their tone and undertone (perhaps we don't even hear exactly what they say) which then gets represented on screen with colors, movements, forms etc.
You'd have, as the base, a program which translates sounds into images (think the visual effect option some media players have, which takes the sound input and, through a set of standard algorithms, gives a direct visual output as in pic related).
You then tell stories through sound which simultaneously are represented visually.
It wouldn't simply all be computerized, but creatively illustrated with fluid animation that only utilize the technology as an aid.
This has been done in different ways before, but its just something which could be developed
How about. We take one of them japanese robot shows and just dub the dialogues. Also censor all the violence and japanese food on It.
90s kids slice of life. Nostalgic out the ass. Kids today will follow a boy as he interacts with old tech and is introduced to new technology like flip phones. Uses the family computer, plays Nintendo and has to blow into the game cartirige to make it work, buy a tamogatchi and go crazy over its little shitty graphics and beeps. Spend a episode begging for a razor scooter then bruising the crap out of their ankles when they get it.
Kids today would laugh at the idea of a family computer and how bizarre our childhood was like without cellphones or easy to use electronic devices. They might roll their fat asses outside and play with the example set by a 90s kid playing outside all the time.
Study. Just like with music, there are different timings to eliciting different emotions, both in animated and static imagery.
A good example is sadness in comics. Repeating panels with small changes is similar to a slow-tempo song a la Hans Zimmer's "Time" in that way.
A 1930s noire detective and a teenage girl from the future team up to solve mysteries through time. Think Rick and Morty and Dr.Who having some hot sex but without the rawnchy humour and existencialism and more of a focus on character development, fun adventures and funny shit that isn't gross. I call it Time Sleuths.
I wonder if i have more rhythm than i realize, i just somehow have trouble making the comic. Structure and planning and all that
Artificial Academy: the Animated Series.
Efficiency is key, I'd say. If you know the broad strokes and major movements of a story, you can start to get granular with information and order the sequence in which it's delivered. Then just make sure you aren't wasting any panels during the delivery, and the burden of the details becomes shifted to the actual story you want to tell. Kind of like letting the responsibility of scene construction bubble-up to the plot development, but passing details down to the scenes to give them uniqueness.
Just don't use scene construction repetitively, and you're gucci senpai.
The most basic example is the opening shot of your artifact (comic, cartoon, etc.) Start with that to set to tone and make the following events related to it in some way, and from there make sure you don't waste a panel and your story should tell itself—if the plot, characters, and setting are consistent, of course.
Giant mechs are sponsored like nascar and it follows the story of one driver from Oklahoma or Kansas or something.

Ive been working on fleshing out the world, but i just cant think of what to have them fight. Like go full camp and half toxic waste spilled in the gulf and make sharks grow into kaiju or what?
Just something I feel should go with these threads. Keep you idea short, sometimes it's good to vent out ideas. But if you want advice or you actually want to do something with your idea. Don't put everything out on the internet for free. Just a quick synopsis.
What are you more familiar writing or what speaks to you more?
No one's commenting on it because it's intelligent. Good work synthesizing classic Superman with modern, user.
Savino no
The toxic sharks just sound so silly, and i dont want the book to be too corny, you know? But i guess i could lean into it.
Step-siblings who hop between dimensions and have adventures together, slowly learning to get along despite their grievances.
If you haven't thought of a "villain", consider having the mechs fight each other. After all, NASCAR is a competitive sport, so if that's the inspiration for your mechs, go with that kind of competition.
Make it a battle royale a la Battle Royale and you've got a contemporary smash hit.
Mobile Fighter G Gundam?
Moon Over June on [as]
Personally.
Go full cheese, as a rough draft. Then go back and look what you could change, after. Jesus Christ, I need to take my own advice. I'm so lazy.
Savino YES
Thats an interesting idea. Maybe a tournament? They have to earn their spot in their state to work up to the big leagues like ufc doing local mma fights.
I'm glad JC-M doesn't draw girls with coked out eyes anymore.
Throw in a reason for the adventures that doesn't result in the parents finding out.
You mean all bugged-out like Tori Spelling's eyes? I get that, but his best stuff has always had bedroom eyes. "Somnolent Leni" for example.
A tournament works, but you could start with small-time stuff, depending on the scale of the mecha. Anything from PMC's hiring mercenary pilots to gangster gambling outfits, then make officiated (or underground) tournies a whole arc, a la Gundam G per or Kaiji.
I feel you, bro. Besides , I also have several more ideas cooking in my head:
>An action series where a freak accident sends a TV actor into the universe of his own TV show
>A team who travels around space fighting evil aliens in a large scale war
>A sinister town that seems happy, but gets more sinister as the series progresses
>A 30s-style series where everyone's named after a writing and art utensil
As long as you have the ability to be funny and maintain a sense of momentum (imply the subplot's actually going somewhere) this is solid.
I have an idea that is kinda like the original Dragon Ball but with Greek and Egyptian mythology instead of Journey to the West. My biggest problem right now is making my Hercules version feel distinct and shit.
This guy's life does not let him go 36 hours without breaking some wooden object over someone else's body part
a story that failed in another medium
Pitch me 5 episode synopses. A plot, b plot-type, 2-3 sentences each. Like a Netflix blurb.
Red head long haired tomboy who's the football teams quarterback and head bitch blond lead cheerleader are secretly lesbian dating. Local goth blackmails them into hanging out with her, leading to supernatural adventures and maybe a three way.
Just take the real Hercules animated series and give it your own version of arching conflicts a la General Tsao/Red Ribbon and King Piccolo. The scrawny teen with more of a Joestar nobility than Son Goku innocence would be a neat twist.
Isnt this just Rule 63 Pico x Chico x Coco?
>forced
Woah there mr Magic man
Is this an all girl highschool? Because if not that's way too Woke for my taste.
But actually the whole blackmail thing in my book can go to very sexual stuff that shouldn't be a cartoon.
I like it
why would anyone care about a fanfic? The good idea was literally already made and we can just read or watch that instead of whatever you're thinking of
Stars without number cartoon series about a bunch of adventures in space
I was thinking just a normal rural highschool.
Please excuse any Wokeness you see implied in whatever pitches i throw into these kinds of threads. I promise you I'm just horny.
You could sell it back to the OG rights holder by rights reserving a copycat version, if the story is compelling enough.
So a detective comic with a focus on lumber related interrogation methods
Teaching kids how accounting works by having the villains be themed after debit and credit posts (and other accounting concepts) like they would otherwise be themed after gem types or constellations.
The show has nothing to do with accounting other than the villain hierarchy.

I've been waiting to make a challenge version of a "pitch your cartoon" thread, something like "imply your perfect cartoon using only a handful of songs." or some dumb bullshit. But now I want do one where it is "Try to pitch a legitimate cartoon idea, but you are only allowed to say relevant hentai tags."
I should probably expand on this a bit
>Former galactic robot supervillain gets dumped on junkyard prison moon for 89 years by a band of SPACE HEROES™
>First episode is full of timeskips showing him formulating an escape plan over the course of decades, shooting down orbital care packages to construct a rocket to get him onto the moon's actual planet
>Second episode, he lands and kidnaps a happy-go-lucky eager-beaver type pilot-in-training who becomes his hostage/sidekick, then steal a ship capable of spike driving warp speed and then they have adventures, picking up others along the way
>Supervillain reconciles with what remains of the band of SPACE HEROES™ that put him away, including the very old and slightly senile leader who sent him letters while he was imprisoned but the supervillian never got them because he shot down the mail delivery shuttles to build his escape rocket
>The group becomes heroes in their own right
>fly off into the sunset
>featuring an alternative country soundtrack interspaced with Ed Harrison Beep-boop bangers
Have you actually posted any of these threads or articles you a nigger?
Ok, I have a similar horny idea.
Three girls in school are in the closet. After graduation they each get invitation to a sleep over at the cheerleaders house or their "secret" will be put on blast.
At the house Cheerleader explain that if they do everything their told they'll get a present.
{Insert lesbian porn}
After the three girls are spent, they're told to watch a video. The video Is a confession from the cheerleaders saying that they actually had a crush on the respective girls. Now they have proven their love the cheerleaders will be their slaves for summer. And to look in the closet.
I'm the closet the three cheerleaders in blindfolds and handcuffs. Holding leashes in their mouths

>In a small Mexican town near the Arizona border, Enrique Kado, the local priest is the only figure of authority that isn't in the local drug lord's (Senior Smack) pocket
>Senior Smack's goons give him an offer he can't refuse, the priest refuses and so they fill him full of lead
>The priest's bloodstained corpse fuses with his Guacamole (he was eating nachos before Senior Smack's goons killed him) and he transforms into a sapient mass of Guacamole (think like a green Grimer/Muk)
>After a bit of despair, the priest realizes that he is still one of god's children and continues to preach the good word
>Senior Smack's goons come back to "finish the job" unfortunately, bullets just go through him and Holy Guacamole! beats up the goons (in a fighting style similar to Blob from Clayfighter)
>After this, Senior Smack's daughter kills him and takes over his criminal empire (becoming Senorita Smack)
>Holy Guacamole! then says he will continue to do “god’s work” (by doing good deeds and kicking butt)
>Despite being a puddle of green goo, the ladies love Holy Guacamole (including Senorita Smack) but unfortunately for them, he's celibate

You aren't lazy or unskilled you just don't want to do anything alone because it doesn't make sense to horse the achievement for yourself when your entire motivational structure comes from a social perception of approval and peer review.
I love it.
It is a good thing for that user specifically, but most fan content is usually not as good as the work it is based off of.
The comic better reflect the contents of upcoming episodes
Sounds like the first book of a Canticle for Leibowitz with it's mythological reverence for modern technology and the mutants. Also Metro with WW2 reenactors becoming big factions.
an anime-esque action show about people who can manifest their oppression in to corporeal beings, which they then battle with to determine who's the most oppressed in the world. There would be factions of people vying for the role of most oppressed group. e.g. blacks, goths, religious extremists etc. the main character would be the most oppressed person on the planet, but is visibly retarded so he's always happy.
Dr. Stone?
Western take on the isekai. Two absolute bros get whisked away to a land of fantasy, dragons, magic and numerous races such as elves, dwarves, vampires, fae and succubi, oh my! One of them is especially athletic, the other is wicked smart
Both are genre savvy and use this to their advantage when applicable. The show would have an overarching plot but have multiple conflicts needing solving on the way through. Compelling concepts include the MCs missing their families dealing with the existential horror of what being in this new world could mean, magic exists? Other worlds? How far does this go? Deities? An afterlife? Ah it's nuts. But it's also making the best of the situation you find yourself in. I'm thinking hints of konosuba with emotional gravity slightly less intense than something like Re: zero. There would be singing but not by the MCs, they would bystand these parts in awe
>Entire show's premise is about adventuring in dungeons and gathering artifacts
>character has a useless sword that doesnt work and a bunch of cool magical artifacts
>he lives in a hut outside of a kingdom and collects trinkets from his adventures
>Eventually with some context clues and some hints it's revealed after like 3 seasons, that the character is from a world long forgotten
>character is a bio-soldier who's lived for thousands of years
>he reveals that a great war happened in modern times and that soldiers were augmented to live forever, as long as they didnt die in the battlefield
>he is a last of his kind, the last human who remembers what the old modern world was
>all of these modern trinkets are literally just war tech, scattered around the world he's been collecting and everyone assumes its magic because nobody understands how it works
>Character reveals that this great war awoke ancients that sleep within the ground, and they were the cause of humanities downfall
>entire show is played as a medieval adventure until this reveal, occasionally showing an overgrown modern structure or car, but never explaining further
Please don't post ideas that you'll miss if they become real.
That's how an anime studio got burned to the ground. Don't be that guy.
user, if someone animates my idea's i'd be estatic. I have so much good shit, but I can only write, not draw so life is suffering.
I had a really generic idea once
>literally just Ghoul School and/or Monster High, aka monster characters going to high school
>main character is a weird humanoid beetle monster who just moved and has to adapt to a new school
>she’s immediately introduced to a self aware nerd ghoul who can float, and it then introduced to her other friends
>these include a gothic ghoul who can also float but can only speak via spit bubbles, a shadowy figure guy stereotyped as a black kid, and a really fat walrus zombie thing that gets bullied a lot
>the families of each character are really fleshed out and you get to know every single one
I dropped the idea eventually because I had realized that it’s already been done
Why don't you work with someone in /hyw/?
Basically Redwall, but they've developed a feudal society in a post-apocalyptic Home Depot.
Like they all live in the hanging light fixture section with little rope bridges between them all. They put saddles on dogs or something like the elephants from Lord of the Rings and take them out scavenging. Basically they're super advanced peasants because they've got literally anything they would ever need in the store, in human quantities.
Slice of life in a regular city setting about two boys that are the best of friends...ok, the thing is that one of them is actually dead and the other one from the suffering of losing a great friend starts to have hallucinations about him and creates a mental representation of him that accompanies the protagonist all the time. He knows that he's dead but still tries to think that thanks to this hallucinations he is alive, because he doesn't want to suffer more from this and to forget his dear friend. He is smart and knows that if his family or anyone finds out this they will try to stop so he decides to keep this as a secret for years. Probably by the half of the show he will be now a very immature teenager that still has his childhood personality cuz this is a consequence of trying to still be connected to his old friend, by this point his family and friends would already know about this and would try to help him out with this crisis.
In resume, a psichological coming of age slice of life type about anti-escapism, accepting the gate of losing someone importante to you and maduration.
Some God-like aliens contact humanity and inform them, that far from living in a humanity fuck yeah settin, they are in fact the weakest race in their dimension, even weaker than the abbysal worms of alpha centauri, the godlike aliens are dead set on relocating them to another dimension where they fit better and belong in the same power level, but our heroes are against that and want to beat some other alien species or do some kind of feat to show the gods that they deserve this dimension, they also ignore the fact that most of humanity support the move.
It's good that studio burned to the ground though. It lets us know karma is real, after they made nichijou
A Mission Hill-type cartoon set in 2019 with a millennial cast of characters in their 20's/early 30's. You got the guys who live with their parents, guys who rent a tiny non-glamorous apartment in groups of at least 4 together, and you got that one guy who inherited a house from a dead relative. What we all got in common is that we're all fucking depressed losers trying to make it in this shitty world. This concept is based on my real life, all of my friends fit into these and I do have that one friend who has inherited a house
Kindly go fuck yourself.
I'd watch it.
I already posted this one some time ago, but here goes
>the main characters are all kids living in the same apartment complex
>10 year old girl. Her parents are both workaholics, and she deals with it by retreating into the magical world of books
>12 year old boy. Living with his mother, father's gone, known for being quite the bully
>11 year old with asthma. Never been outside the city, never been close to animals other than goldfish. Parents are totally overprotective of everything
>11 year old boyscout. He has an adult older brother that also went to boyscout. In boyscout, he never managed to even get the ropes properly. Parents stopped trying to encouraging him putting in more effort when they had a new daughter take all their attention.
>One morning, seeming no different from any other, the kids all wake up in their own bed, but find that their house is empty
>the entire apartment is empty. They can't find any people adults anywhere
>first episode is them just messing around "Wooooh! No parents, no rules!", but eventually see how difficult things are without them
>they decide to search for clues, which eventually point out of the city, into the unknown.
>Show tells the story of them journeying by foot through a vast empty land, facing difficulties of many different types. Like finding food and make shelter in the forests, how do you apply bandages, working together. But also encountering Big-city kids that have accepted this new world without parents, living like savages.
If the thematic point was that, it doesn't matter what started you on your path, what you do is what you are, would you be greatly annoyed by an initial mystery never being answered if it was made clear that, that isn't the point?
What you do is either never reveal the mystery but keep it around as a framing device, like what David Lynch was planning with Laura Palmer's murderer in Twin Peaks, or you get the story going, reveal your real message, and then sometime along the way have the original mystery effortlessly answered in a way that makes the cast and readers say, 'wow that would have been really important a few years ago, but now we've gone so far it really doesn't make a difference, does it?'
I like the second.
Or like, they're fucking climbing up the side of the rocket as it's breaking out of the atmosphere, and the might not be able to stop it or they may never be able to see it again, then one of them says, 'Hey, I just wanted you to know, it was me who stole the teapot'
