Okay - so I've decided to take my Marvel game to Japan. I'm looking for stones left unturned in terms of what Asian pop-culture stuff I can convert to FASERIP for the purposes of doing Cool Shit(tm) with my players.
Rules: There are no rules
- I don't care much about canon per se. I'm going to contextualize them to my Marvel/DC hybrid universe anyhow. But I want them to have their home-court flava. But if you post anything, feel free to toss in your context as you want. Try to give a Marvel-ish spin to it. If you wanna make it mystical - perfectly fine. If you wanna make it technical or part of the government - just as fine. Anything under the headings I have that you LIKE and want to toss in, *PLEASE DO*, because the more fodder I have to consider the better.
So things I'm considering:
Kamen Rider - I'm thinking these guys are like the equivalent of fraternities of metahumans (I have my reasons why they're appearing but feel free to adlib your own) that create their own rules to deal with evil metahuman/spiritual incursions. Some Kamen Riders
Shogun Warriors - Possibly government project to deal with Kaiju? Think Sentinel Program but Japanese style and each one is unique. Feel free to toss in anything specific you think would be cool.
G-Force - Gatchaman project. I'm pretty strong on this one already. It's part of one my Players plans potentially to start up as a Government team.
Streetfighter/MK/Tekken - I have a player that is very much a Batmanesque Martial Arts guy. So you know I'm going to be digging on this.
Kaiju - Naturally. I have a few ideas on Kaiju mythos I'm going to run with. There is some extradimenional Law/Chaos stuff going on, plus I'm going to use classical notions of Godzilla being a force of nature type thing. But any particular things you all might dig on - toss it up. Monster Island is likely going to be a thing. (Can toss in Fing Fang Foom in here as well).
Evangelion - Government project?
General Superheroes - Tiger and Bunny, Sunfire, Tekkaman, Big Hero 6, Silver Samurai, etc. Give me all the deep cuts from Manga/Anime that you can think of!
Dragon Ball - Hmmm...
Speed Racer - Why not? Racer-X and the Kamen Riders team up with G-Force and my PCs to deal with The Hand and horde of Demon Oni...
Ultraman - Helllss to the yes. Beta Capsules are incoming. I may make these a little more approachable rather than Kaiju-sized supers. But they'll still fight Kaiju of course. Think Space Knights or baby Captain Universe but still Ultraman in theme and possibly premise.
Super Sentai - Power Rangers. I'm not sure what to do with these guys yet. I know literally nothing about them. School me.
Astro Boy - Yeah I may use him.
Mega-Man - why not?
Guyver - Without doubt. Guyver is a must.
What else?
