黙ってこれを受け取れ！ Anonymous 11/01/2025 (Sat) 14:19:26 Id: e8b03b No. 74380

This sci-fi time-travel concept is yours to adapt into manga or anime. No royalties, no credit needed. Go wild! The year is 2026. Akira (仮) is a depressed and lonely reclusive coder/hacker in his early 30s. Times are bad. Pandemics, wars, lies, censorship, AI take-over… He wants to go back to happier times when everything was great and writes a time travel script, using a newly discovered mathematical concept called Quantum Dissolution — simply executing the script is enough to travel 20 years back in time to 2006. Except, when he does it, a new timeline is created and the original universe is dissolved to provide energy for that new timeline. He successfully travels to 2006 in his 2026 body, but destroys his original 2026 universe to do so. Coincidentally, after the time jump, the boy in 2006, who the protagonist used to be, is hit by a car on his way from school and dies. But now the version of him from 2026 lives happily in 2006 with all his loved ones still around. No censorship, no pandemics, anime is great, and most of the tragedies didn't happen yet. He predicts a few disasters, makes a couple of sci-fi pitches to publishers. He even dates his old school teacher who is in her 20s now. Time passes, it's 2012, and Akira (仮) is 6 years older, approaching 40. He is content with his life, married to that teacher who is now pregnant. But then he finds out that someone else, a depressed and lonely reclusive woman in her early 30s, naimed Eiko (仮), wants to write that time travel script and travel back to 1992, when she was happy. And of course Akira (仮) knows that it will destroy the universe of departure. The cat-and-mouse game ensues… Akira (仮) to find Eiko (仮) and stop her, so he can save his pregnant teacher-wife. The arc ends with him finding Eiko (仮) in a rundown apartment in Osaka, but she executes the script at the end of their dialogue. She immediately jumps to 1992 and he watches what the dissolving universe looks like for some time. His wife vanishes into the static. Then he manages to find a terminal that still works somehow and types his own time-travel script to follow Eiko (仮) to 1992. They both succeed, and end up in their adult bodies in the year 1992, and the 2012 universe is no more. After the ending roll, there's a sneak peak of S2: a guy in 2000 writing a script to go back to 1980.

>>74380 Oh noes! This awesome seinen idea is sinking!

>>74380 No royalty story. Meaning adaptation is in our hand. Banger idea!

I have a story for season 2 in mind, I'll pitch it after I see any content on season 1. Obviously, the same rules as OP apply, so no need to listen to me or wait for my input, unless you want to.

Lets enumerate the fundamental issues: 1. Akira exterminates the Universe as if nothing had happened and yet he didn't kill one more person to preserve his timeline without hesitating. That breaks any moral coherence in that character 2. Akira discovering a script-kiddie not once but twice (implied) seems too improvable, the world shouldn't spin around the MC without a good justification, like the Reading Steiner. 3. Does the MC has an existential dilemma? there're people trying to obliterate the world each 10 years (actually more often) each time the destruction happens 10 years earlier, Are those cases the only ones? that would make 2. even worse. If they aren't the only ones then that is a problem too, why is the plot even a thing if everything should have disappeared before it began, is his timeline unique and casually all those time travels don(possible but unnoticed) time travels (and Universe destruction) didn't alter his life? Imagine: >develops the story for 5 volumes, all the sudden the casting is flushed and replaced for different people, no explanations given

>>74456 First draft is always the worst, here's the quickest patches I could think of >Akira exterminates the Universe as if nothing had happened and yet he didn't kill one more person to preserve his timeline without hesitating. Would he have been aware of the consequences before he time warps? If no, you could have a dramatic "what have I done" sort of moment when he finds out that greater emphasizes the stakes of it happening again. How he finds out and not the girl I'm debating on how to handle because of the other problem. >Akira discovering a script-kiddie not once but twice (implied) seems too improvable Programming forums for unique/special interests catching the MC's eyes, wouldn't be too out of place, plus for her to even find the script she kinda needs him due to it being "recent" in the future, so who else could've developed it in the past? >is his timeline unique Sounds like only one timeline is ever active if the previous one gets destroyed, so no multiple timeline shenanigans for this series. Unless... >there're people trying to obliterate the world each 10 years (actually more often) each time the destruction happens 10 years earlier, Couple of potential series ending answers to that one: Destroying the time travel code, solving whatever "original sin" is causing people to jump back so much, refining the code to salvage something from a previous timeline; it's definitely the most open ended problem and furthest away from "needing" to be solved unless it's doomed to last only one season.

>>74462 >Would he have been aware of the consequences before he time warps? He'd have no idea in 2026, since he was the first time-jumper and not a physicist. But he learns about it after the jump. How? Perhaps he caught a glimpse of it as he was already jumping, or the information simply got "uploaded" into his mind by the script and now he's having nightmares. In my opinion it's a technical triviality and the story is more about the philosophy of individual happiness and nostalgia. >Programming forums for unique/special interests catching the MC's eyes, wouldn't be too out of place, plus for her to even find the script she kinda needs him due to it being "recent" in the future, so who else could've developed it in the past? This seems like the best approach to it. >Sounds like only one timeline is ever active if the previous one gets destroyed Indeed. There's energy for only one timeline which is why the original is always consumed as fuel. >Couple of potential series ending answers to that one: Destroying the time travel code, solving whatever "original sin" is causing people to jump back so much, refining the code to salvage something from a previous timeline; it's definitely the most open ended problem and furthest away from "needing" to be solved unless it's doomed to last only one season. There's also the simple fact that at some point there wouldn't be any sufficiently advanced hardware to run the script within 20 years, and since it only sends one back 20 years and doesn't make them younger, it would become mostly pointless to try.

>>74380 What is the pull here? The concept isn't very existentially interesting because a) It is extremely arbitrary, deriving itself from no physical principle or idea And b) It isn't explored or thought out. There is no deliberation about the consequnces or reasons. Thing just happen If I were writing it, I would set it to be about a mad scientist who does this, goes back to before he was born and lives out a full life, then his grand daughter has inherited both his capacities and miseries in a world he could not change and he has to try to save her from the world he ran from, while also avoiding letting her invent the thing that kills everyone Then make it a narrative metaphor for suicide or avoiding your problems instead of a plot device with no plot to device upon Don't focus so much on the abstract sci-fi idea if you aren't going to flesh it out. put more into the backround of it and the affects Also everyone has an anime idea. Some people have dozens. There's no need for a false pretense of sharing to talk about your idea. They are fun
