Write anime plot: Non-isekai edition

I don't live in Japan so I'll be fine

sounds like it will play off pretty stale, bc the romance does seem to be binary

>bc the romance does seem to be binary
the fuck is that supposed to be mean?

What do you mean by that? Like a romance between two people? I don't really see an issue with leaving out some convoluted love triangle (though it'll start that way until fake protagonist snaps) and focusing more about the developing relationship between two people who were once bitter enemies. And also there will be like, action and intrigue and stuff, the romance is important but not the only part of the plot.

How To Get Away With A Murderer

But all main characters is loli girl

either they like each other they dont, because their obviously compatible nature ,there is not much more to do then to further increase the scale of how much they like each other . basically no drama based on their true natures, merely inforced through plot

>MC is dying at the hand of the big bad
>gets reborn as his daughter
>realize that the big bad's success is actually advancing humanity
>now it's SoL about the MC and the big bad trying to bond as a father and daughter

A high school boy lives with his little sister after their parents died. Between school and working to pay the rent and bills, he doesn't have much time to spend with his imouto. One day he sees a flyer advertising a job that would only be two days a week yet pay more than his 40 hour a week job. He calls the number on the flyer and is teleported to another dimension. After wandering through darkness a bit, he finds a beautiful woman with horns sitting on a throne. She explains she's the queen of the shadow dimension and she's seeking to expand her empire into the boy's world. As such, she's hiring worthy people to serve as her minions. Only those people with potential to serve can see the flyers. The boy agrees and becomes a lieutenant in her dark army.

In his first mission though, he's defeated by a magical girl. Naturally this magical girl turns out to be his little sister.

The new world is a lie.

Every isekai story out there is nothing but the fabrication of a dying soul who has lived an unfulfilled life and died a traumatic death. It is the final self-preservation failsafe of a weakened soul in reality so that they may endure long enough to return to reincarnation cycle.

Normally, these would resolve themselves one way or another so nearly all of these deaths have no effect on the real world but when a dream goes on for too long and their spirit somehow remains bounded to the earthly plane, things from the dream can start leaking out of it and become part of reality.

This is where specialists come in. There is an ancient order dedicated to curbing the threats this may cause by invading these dreams and forcing the soul to a conclusion. Without them, the world would be a much more fantastical place that'd only breed more and more of these corrupting influences on reality. And unfortunately for these specialists, these dreams are more often than not fatal for the would be saviours of the world and veterans come out of them changed by the lifetimes they live out inside and the choices they must steel themselves for the sake of the mission.

The mission that take center stage concerns a very curious case that require the hands of hardened veterans. A couple had committed lover's suicide and both their dreams have persisted for far too long and expanded so much that they are beginning to merge together. Cross contamination has been documented before but never at this level and it brings up worrying possibility - what if they go on to merge with other dreams?

I call this one "Crossworld Knights".

Sounds likes fun.
Usually kind of stories like this is that if the MC and heroine in different sides, MC's already got multiple girls but the heroine still free of any male candidate *cough* pic related

Would love to see your kind of story in real manga.

Guys, it says non-isekai edition

>edition

In this story, the cold war ended on much friendlier and agreeable terms between the east and the west, somewhere in the early 80s.
The leaders of the world all come together, seemingly sincere in their wish to create a better future for all of humanity.

The only problem is, what should the bloc powers do with their secret arsenal of weaponry and surveillance equipment, not to mention the army of spies, terrorists, black ops, courtesans, torturers and assassins, most trained from a young age to deeply hate the ideological opposition and being extremely distrustful, paranoid and scheming by nature of their job?

The answer is, to not disturb the peace preparations, they are all sent undercover to a small-medium italy/croatia-esque fictional mediterran island with very unclear (some say entirely made up) instructions and the strict order that leaving the island before the end of their (most likely non-existant) mission is punishable by death. Were they just disposed of here to rot? Is this whole peace project a sham? Is there a much deeper secret to be uncovered?

Focuses on a mix of classic Frederik Forsyth-esque spy techniques with stylish mediterran SoL about a bunch of dangerous and paranoid people, many ideological arch enemies, having to live in close vicinity to each other - as well as the individual coping or deny strategies about their situation.
Featuring 80s fashion, MKULTRA, Gladio, the RAF, the japanese red army, all kinds of three letter agencies, various LSD and mind control experiments and a cameo appearance by Carlos the jackal.

I only see one post about it, and even that is pseudo-isekai.
It's a no problem for me.

MC-kun is forced to find a club to join in his high school because Japanese schools work like that. Eventually an otaku pretty much forces him into his club which is a giant room with a circular table and people that look like they're in sci-fi cosplay. Turns out aliens are trying to invade Earth and the whole point of the club is trying to form a defense to stop him. Turns out everyone in the club has weird powers or legacy, including MC who's apparently the reincarnation of King Arthur

title: the round-table club

A few more twists should be nice
>lieutenant-kun later figures out that the country he defected to isn't that much better than the empire he betrayed, since it's a totalitarian regime ruled by a ruthless iron-fisted dictator
>the dictator only grants him asylum to mock his old boss
>people back in his home call for his execution for committing treason
>an election is held in the empire, the dictator uses that chance to interfere and rig it, installing a new emperor who is in good term with him
>then the dictator plans to give lieutenant-kun back to the empire as a gift for the newly elected empire, so that he can be publicly executed

>>lieutenant-kun later figures out that the country he defected to isn't that much better than the empire he betrayed, since it's a totalitarian regime ruled by a ruthless iron-fisted dictator
I mean according to that user the big evil empire is planning to do some whack berserk Eclipse shit or something so at least the nation he defected to is only mundanely evil.

To clarify here, the idea (that again I just had a dream about) is that the emperor himself created the empire as a means to achieve some kind of diabolical apotheosis and all the good work he did was a means to that end yes. However, it is entirely possible that the kingdom lieutenant-kun defected to and that the princess character comes from could be a more banal sort of evil but not Griffith-tier as put it.

An average high school boy is expelled. The only school that will take him is a live in boys academy deep in the mountains. However, when he gets there, he finds all the students seem to be girls. The headmaster meets him and tells him the situation. All of these girls used to be boys. The school has a curse on it that turns all of its students into girls. Since the mc is enrolled, he's already under the effects of the curse. At which point the MC realizes that he's now shorter. The only way to return to being a boy is to graduate.

Man gets hit by truck and is isekaid as a ghost.
Key points are he never takes humanform/gets a body and never learns the language. Spends his afterlife trying to annoy people.

>fantasy american civil war begins
How? The North only won because of their superior industrial power, which isekai can't possibly have.

>Set in a WW1 battlefield
>Story follows 2 young MCs on opposite sides

>The first scene of the anime is them killing each other by pulling the trigger simultaneously

Didn't even see that. Lucky that I chose to write up the meta isekai idea instead of the succubus hero one for this thread.

an anime wouldn't do this justice, it sounds like movie material.
I find war portrayal in animation to be lacking

Well, I am just trying to make it a bit less black-and-white with both sides are essentially the same and turn it into a sort of dilemma where the naive MC with noble ideas being hit with the wall of reality and falling into desperation. You could make it into either a black comedy or a Geek tragedy. Bonus point if the princess is actually a soulless biochemical weapon created by the dictator to ensnare male warriors and the betrayal of the hero is just part of her plan to undermine the empire.

>MC escaped to the west and served in the mexican american war on the mexican side

now give them guns and someone who understands basic battle doctrine for smaller forces to destroy larger forces and a built in logistical freebie and suddenly a win isn't that far fetched.

and before you put on your fucking war nerd glasses remember this is an isekai anime not a documentary

That doesn't make it better though, just different. Cynicism and tragedy are fine but adding them to a story doesn't instantly make it better or more meaningful, though it is a common fallacy that they do. The original plot provided has plenty of potential to add shades of gray, especially if the empire is ultimately not too bad but can't be allowed to continue because the emperor is going to do some bad shit with it. Imagine trying to convince the rank and file guys that the cause they devoted themselves to is just a scheme so the emperor can go full Demon Lord later down the line. It'd probably lead to all sorts of problems.

>Cynicism and tragedy are fine but adding them to a story doesn't instantly make it better or more meaningful, though it is a common fallacy that they do.

Not even invested in this conversation but holy fuck is this accurate. I can't count how many nerds I've met who think edgy=deep. You can't just slap sadness on something to make it smart you dumbfucks.

MC is a 6/10 fat ass who needs to lose weight and has a love for military history in a futurstic world that is divided between a republic and monarchic superpowers. After finishing university the MC can no longer avoid being drafted and is made an officer infantrymen using a standard issued mecha and is shipped off to the frontlines.

Despite being the MC, the MC has absolutely no special abilities or anything to make his mecha stand-out compared to the special born bishounen teenagers/kids in the military who pilot top of the line mechas, plow rich/princesses, and become the key figures in the most decisive battles that happen and who get to be on tv talking about peace and understanding one another.

Instead to help himself and the members of his unit survive the grueling combat of the front lines the MC relies heavily on advice given to him by his Sergeant and other enlisted men, employs the tactics of famous military strategists that he learned about, and uses underhanded activities/guerrilla warfare in the battlefield all so that he and men can stay alive for the next 2 years so that they can eventually be cycled back home.

Japanese high school is always study for college and shit, so there's this one japanese high school right? and it's all about being prestigious and shit they goes all out on keeping their students to just focus on their fucking study.
In order to do that they have this kind of retarded mindset where the school will helps the students on their life problem. Anything, bullying, debt, addiction, romance bullshit, everything in order for them to focus on their studies. It's proven that the graduatees will always be an important/famous person in society.

Story revolves around 3 MC's, & would be interconnected later.
First MC was assigned by the teacher to join the volunteer club, because this MC doesn't have any vision for it's future. Students that want to ask for help would come to this club, but usually minor problem.

Second MC was assigned by another teacher to join the detective club, because he's one of the smartest in the class/year. This club deals with more serious problems, usually about the school conspiracy, student problem that involves the need of detectives shit.

Volunteer club and detective club usually butthead to each other due to almost same uses, but detective club is more famous in the school because there's a savant genius detective girl in there, while volunteer clubs main attraction was the popular yet unapproachable girl.

Third MC was assigned by another teacher but this time he's assigned alone. This teacher stands as school representative and assigned this MC to solve the problems in secret and provide intel to the school, and if volunteer and detective club missed or can't finished a serious problem, this MC had to solved it in any means necessary. This MC however is not right in the heart since he either edged someone to kill another, doing the killing himself, and even altering a murder scene (usually he made somekind of disturbing art with the corpse victim to convey a message or someshit) despite his dilligent and tidy persona

Can't write a strong story if you yourself don't experience strong emotions.

Last time I tried to write a good idea people here called me tryhard and that I "try very hard to be different". I think people here actually want their ideas to conform, 1984 style

mouse monster/yokai helps a fujo live out her dreams of being in the BL romance anime world.... in real life.

A comedy with lots of husbandos and yaoi... and spirits that look like rodents.

This is cute, would watch

What if she has to leave in the end with the changing seasons and because of a god's duty to care for all humanity and not just one boy?

Sounds like perfect material for a Wes Anderson flick.

Maybe your idea was just tryhard crap that an 8th grader would come up with for their original character do not steal that they put in their Naruto fanfics?

An average high school boy is abducted by aliens. During their anal probing, they discover he's part alien himself. Not only that, he's descended from alien royalty. They decide to bring him to their home world and brainwash him into being a puppet they can stick on the throne. On the way, the ship is attacked by space pirates, who offer the boy a choice, join their crew, or be trapped in the mechanizations of these alien kidnappers.

Boy falls in love with another boy.
He gets his phone number by being his friend and then sends him trap porn spam in his other accounts.
The boy falls into degeneracy quickly since he his small and cute and wants to be like those traps.
Hijinks ensue as the boy who is large and kind keeps talking to him and they learn of each other's secrets.
In the end the boy confesses to the other boy and forcibly french kisses him awakening his trapped desires.
While the two love each other, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall genuinely in love with each other and question the NATURE of trap LOVE and MARRIAGE.

MC was a party member who sacrificed himself in order for the hero to defeat the demon king and restore peace to the world, he leaves behind his pregnant waifu. Except he didn't die, he somehow finds himself transported 20 years into the future where history books scapegoat him as the villain who caused the end of the world. Together with his estranged daughter, he slowly discovers that his party's journey 20 years ago was not what it seemed.

I would have gone with having the MC fall for alternate girl version of the boy and slowly corrupt the boy into being a trap modeled after his alternate self ala a trans tribune work.

I’d say that the kingdom that lieutenant-kun defects to also being bad is a good way to continue the story, especially if you play the angle that lieutenant-kun is a true believer in the benevolent autocracy that the empire claimed to stand for. He could marry the princess, overthrow the king, and use his newfound authority to bring order to the empire, now collapsing because anyone who could have held it together was involved with the emperor’s scheme.

I see where you're going with it now. If it went that route, I'd imagine him and the princess being more equal in terms of power though, playing off each other's strengths. On the other hand, the purpose of the anime is both to explore some neat ideas and also to bully otakus who self-insert, so I'm not sure if letting the new protagonist become a ruler would be an extra fuck you or straying back into boring power fantasy stuff.

Well he did mention that his ascension to power is to what is basically to a crumbling state

That is also fair. Could end on a hopeful but ambiguous note or something.

something bnha styled, but with martial arts. no powers and shit

I'd make a fantasy equivalent to Blame! where it's set in a giant, never-ending castle.

MC decides one day that he wants to become Chieftain of his tribe and does so by killing the old one. However the turmoil caused by this event causes neighboring tribes to try and take advantage of the situation and try and take over the land for their own. Now MC, as the newly made leader must quell the chaos in his land and earn the trust of his people while also beating back the invaders, and who knows, he might just turn the tables and conquer them instead.

Nothing crazy really.

I’m not the original guy in the reply chain. I just figured I’d add my two cents. I was thinking that the protagonist, being a former servant of the empire, would still see the world through that lens, even if he disagrees with the emperor’s actual goals. He’d likely no longer inherently trust the current authority figures, just like how they distrust him. He sees some of the systemic injustices of his new home, and sees himself and the princess as the only ones who can make things right. There may have been a better way to do things, but this way is true to his ideals.
I understand your concerns regarding how it might stray back into generic power fantasy, but I’m not sure how to temper it. Maybe he becomes a sort of Napoleon figure, and future generations of would-be tyrants try to co-opt his legacy for propaganda, or try to emulate his actions, with less pure intentions. Maybe one of those copycats springs up in one of imperial successor states, showing that despite his great deeds, his actions have set a dangerous precedent.

I never envisioned him as such a major player but I see the points you make. I saw the situation more as him and the princess character sharing main character status once the red herring protagonist goes crazy. Those sorts of stresses could make their relationship more interesting though. Lieutenant-kun knows plenty about military strategy while the princess leads through charisma and understanding of proper politics, so they would complement one another in that regard while still having a lot to learn.

what if there were alternate cuts of the episodes where the magic special effects are shown?

MC is a boy in a fantasy world where the gods play an active role in the world and human civilization, but human suffering creates a localized "barrier" that blocks out the eyes and hands of the gods.

The anime starts right after a violent assault on MC's town by the "Fallen" was turned back. They sought to create as much suffering as possible to weaken the influence of the gods on the world, and MC's parents were killed as a part of that. A few divinely gifted "Healers" are tending to the gravely injured, but there aren't enough. MC, sitting alone amidst the ruined town, is approached by one of them.

"They can mend broken bones and rejoin torn flesh, but they can never piece together shattered faith."

MC looks up and sees that the person talking to him has horribly twisted flesh and demonic glowing eyes. He begins to stumble backwards, but is immediately grabbed tightly by the arm. He tries to scream, but an overwhelming surge of energy paralyzes his body.

"They would never let you have this power. Think about that every time you use it."

MC gets thrown back into a pile of rubble and a jutting shard of metal pierces his forearm. He screams and immediately rolls off the pile, pulling his arm free from the shard. He then immediately notices the wound mending itself, and also all of the other scrapes and cuts on his body.

"How I Learned to Start Worrying and Save the World!" (alt. "It CAN Be Helped!")

On one faithful day the Demon King dares to awaken from his ancient slumber inside Mt. Buji, and following the eon-old curse imposed on him by God, has his subconscious select the most (un)suitable possible group of heroes to challenge him on the day of his awakening. The choosen ones are a chronically bored MC-kun, airheaded ditz Katsuya Doma (or simply Katsudon), cynical deliquent Edogawa Rance and loud-mouthed fatso Tofumi, which together form the hastily spelled 'Boredoom' club, where they waste their carefree teenage lives doing nothing. After a unison nightmare signaling their fate, the four come together with the intention of shrugging it off and carrying on with their laziness. Or at least that's what they thought, as a oji-san with a bald head and an afro on his chin crashes through their paper door claiming to be the mystical Hero Trainer, the one who has lead countless heroes to battle with the fiend, and the one who will put them to form. Can those four really save the world at this rate...?

Great historical events with lolis.

A high school girl is a huge fan of Gundam style anime. She's watched it time and again, knows all the characters and famous scenes by heart. She's memorized every plot detail and knows the lore inside and out and fangirls to the point of crushing on the MC of the series. Through narrative convenience (trucked or something I don't know) she finds herself in what seems to be the world of the series itself, in view of one of the more famous battles from earlier in the series that she watches with amazement.

Her knowledge allows her to tell someone standing near her what's going to happen and to their surprise everything goes down as predicted... which allows what was a victory for the not-Federation heroes to turn into a draw. It turns out the person next to her is an officer for the not-Zeon forces and as her predictions started to bear out they were communicated back to the commanders allowing them to counter. Due to her amazing ability to "read" and predict the battle, she's forcibly drafted into the not-Zeon ranks. Threatened with death for treason if she should refuse, try to escape or defect, she's forced to hope her knowledge of the series and luck can help not-Zeon turn the tides of the war and bring about the destruction of the feared White Death, the series hero that she loves so much.

So Gundam fanboyism and isekai with a more shoujo twist.

Add some 'deep introspective' since now MC has lived a life he never thought he could but he still hates that piece of shit, but does he really deserve his old fate?
If he bullies him too hard his old crush will hate him, and the kid may snap and murder him.
Should he just save him and try to teach him artsty shit or something?
Truly a dilemma.

I don't really think much of it but I'm open to constructed and thoughtful critique. bear with it, it's gonna be long and in multiple posts

>MC stands there, confused, and is approched by a bystander casually walking up to him
>he recognizes the mailman's face, he reveals himself to be a mischievous god who explains he gave the boy the power to read the feelings of someone, force his emotions onto other people or to influence theirs, but in exchange, he constantly feels the emotions of people in his surrounding as if they were his own, tenfold in intensity
>the god claims he did it as an experiment on his part, he wanted to see how a desperate child would act when granted such a power, and said he'd be watching him to see how he does from time to time
>MC eventually understands he was manipulated into accepting an ability that killed his parents and grew even sadder
>the story is about these two orphans who become adopted into a new family and MC has a hard time controlling his emotions, and causes several problems around him

that was a long ass premise but I feel like it wouldn't have been possible to shorten it and make it interesting at the same time

Longer than it should've been but I liked the twist with the mailman. I don't know how I feel about the drawback. The sister could try to move forward but the MC's sadness was amplified by hers so he passively prevents her from moving on. His power makes a negative feedback loop if he just hangs around his sister all the time

Already a thing.

in that case, the story could be about MC's emotional maturity, as he grows up he handles the feelings in a better way, and gradually understands which feelings are his own, and which aren't, until he reaches the point where he masters them completely but ends up looking like a jaded, soulless man on the outside.
and again, sorry for the lengthy post but I'm not really skilled when it comes to inventing a story

Guy gets isekai'd into a colonial era kingdom. After getting isekai'd, he learns that the kingdom that summoned him tortures people like him for knowledge on alternate universe technology or magic. And when the kingdom is done squeezing the current isekai schmuck for info, they kill them and use their bodies for the isekai ritual.
This component of the ritual makes it so that the kingdom can only summon and host only one isekai'd person at any given time. In order to summon another person, the current summon has to die.
So the MC escapes the dungeon he's held in with the help of an inside agent. Now the kingdom is out looking for him.
The main reason behind the summonings again that the kingdom is after the legendary Brahmastra.
Also known as the nuclear bomb. And before the MC escaped, he accidentally revealed to the kingdom's torturers that he knew how to make one (Little Boy design).

A class rep is outgoing, smart, pretty and attentive to the needs of her both classmates and others at school. In reality, her upbringing has led her to cynically look down on others using her Kind-Hearted Class Rep reputation to scam, extort and otherwise benefit herself as compassion is weakness and one should only look out for one's own self-interest.

She crosses paths with a newer girl, a tough and intimidating delinquent whose terse, anti-social nature is used to mask her social anxiety and awkwardness and naturally sweet and loyal disposition. While the Class Rep feigns friendship so she has another tool to deploy the delinquent, feeling as if she's found someone she can be honest with, wonders if she might start to find the confidence she's always lacked.

It even has a name: Bitter and Sweet because I'm an Akina fan.

A high school boy swaps bodies for 8 hours with a different person each time he wakes up in the morning.

Quantum Leap?

Let me guess: The MC finds himself climbing through the ranks and earning the respect of everyone, eventually becoming a commander of one of those eugenics bishie strike teams. But Commander Piggy still feels inadequate and inferior around his new bishie brat squad. He also really, really wants to cycle out soon, but his superiors want to keep him on the field because he's one of the best tacticians in service. Thus making him the perfect babysitter for the new batch of bishie brats that came out of the battle academy this year.
He is also hopeless with romance because of course he is, can't even get laid to save his own life, and is currently an alcoholic because of it.

On The Beach

Five typical HS graduates work normal, everyday retail jobs during the day. On weekends, they all get together to record audio and do MOCAP for their side job as a Virtual Youtuber Idol Group "Black Cherry Sundae". Episodes alternate between retail hell shennanigans, Youtube drama and behind the scenes work, and mock Vtuber episodes of things like Let's Plays of fictional games.

No time travel and he goes back to his own body after the 8 hours until the end of the day.

A terrible scourge of MAGICAL GIRLS has plagued the land, their battles DECIMATING CITIES. An elite group known as MAGKIS (MAgical GIrl KIll Squad), consisting of rogue Magical Girls from across the globe who want to end the constant fighting is sent out to end their rampages once and for all. It's like that one mad poker anime but good

>and before you put on your fucking war nerd glasses remember this is an isekai anime not a documentary
But it should at least make sense. Being able to grow crops doesn't automatically win you a war. Most of plantations were placed in the South but they still lost.

>Most of plantations
They mostly grew cash crops like cotton rather than food crops.

>I'm not sure if letting the new protagonist become a ruler would be an extra fuck you or straying back into boring power fantasy stuff.
You can make it interesting by making lieutenant-kun an extremist with well intention, who will be ready commit all sort of atrocities to achieve his goal of becoming the ultimate ruler, since he believes only him can lead the world to the rightful path. Then he is eventually corrupted by power and will do anything to protect his throne, basically become the old emperor dude.

A girl falls in love with a girl. However, they're both engaged to be married to guys. One of them has a brilliant idea that the other one will impersonate the guy the other is engaged to in order to fool both their families.

I think that's a good idea in general but I prefer the idea of him actually being a good boy who just happened to be one of the Emperor's henchmen. I've toyed around with the idea of not even making him human too, but my point is that he starts off as what you think is just one member of an enemy team that gets killed off as the story progresses as is often the case with anime (Ginyu Force, Mazinger's 7 Generals, and so on) who gets a suspicious amount of character development as season 1 progresses before his true colors as a decent person are revealed, which in turn serves as the opposite to the red herring protagonist, who starts off as a likeable if bland self-insert MC who slowly devolves into batshit madness and jealousy over having the main girl stolen from him. Both the new and old MC are meant to contrast each other, which new MC starting as the loyal minion of the baddie who compromises his strong morals for the sake of the empire, and the old MC starting as the typical friendship is power protag who grows progressively more unhinged and butthurt (sort of like japanese fans when one of their waifus gets a boyfriend) as he finds himself becoming the third wheel because he's either shallow as fuck/only on the good side because muh princess and doesn't care about ideals/has typical MC denseness that works like it does in real life ie you don't make a move and she leaves for someone who does. The developing rivalry between these two characters along with the growing relationship from grudging respect to friendship to love between the stoic warrior princess and lieutenant-kun are meant to be the main character arcs of the show, with the fighting and intrigue and such serving as a backdrop for how they and the assorted cast of supporting characters grow and evolve.

Something something cultivation native isekai, there.

Sauce on this?

How about a SOL anime about a dog training service, only instead of dogs it’s dog, wolf, fox, and cat girls. The girls are varied, with one being spoiled and bratty, another being too scared of everything and clingy, another that is lazy and mischievous, another that is just dumb but cheery, and one that is a feral who is shy yet curious and wild.

Or a spacefighter jockey show where the fighters have AIs that serve as an interface between the pilots’ thoughts and orders and the controlling of the craft. It’s basically like the pilots are riders and the fighters are really smart horses. The pilots take personal responsibility for the care of their fighters too, and you get to have an anime with spacefighter waifus and husbandos.

Pic related is my response to any and all criticism or disapproval.
