A Pitch X

Well as promised on facebook and after continued deliberation I've finally perfected a pitch X. This idea is dedicated to Enoch Chu, your idea became my inspiration and now see the fruits of our labor. So my other readers wish to contribute next time for an idea I'm doing another one at XV. I've already have XI in the works. So without further adue, I present a pitch X.

People are like stars, there are thousands of them. They are born and eventually die. In the year 3048 they say that when a starfalls a war ends. In the depths of space, thousands of dropships containing highly trained soldiers approach the planet codenamed HF005. Their mission to liberate control of the planet from a neo-facist government by reclaiming the military fortress Victor. As the ships approach the planet, computers hum to life waking the soldiers from their cryo-sleep. 2nd Lieutenant Cyper Geno leader of the elite squad known as the Shooting Stars leads the initial invasion of the fortress. The initial drop is a scene straight out of the Omaha beach landing of D-Day, flak and machine gun fire pour out of the fortress. However unlike D-Day 89% of the initial invasion force is wiped out in minutes. As for the Shooting Stars, they have breached the fortress's walls and begin thier sweep of the facility.

What they find is that there never was any neo-facist faction takeover. What they were fighting was a civil war. Moreover something seems out of place, radio communication is short and repeated messages. So as the Shooting Star squad loses members one by one, Cyper discovers that the mission was never to liberate the fortress. In fact the years that these soliders were in cold sleep, earth has finally attained true peace and to further preserve that peace they had to do away with the weapons and instruments of war. Thus they were sent to die. A star is about to fall.

Project: Starfall

When a war ends a star falls to call forth a new era of peace.

So that is a pitch X hope you guys liked it.

It's Happened Again

Well to please my audience (well one person in particular and I know he'll love this one) a historiography (history term I learned this semester, its the study of how history has been studied) of my love life. Basically I've been single since the day I was born. Elementary school, yes I have liked a few girls. One of them actually goes to the same school as me now and the other goes to UCI. The second girl, the cute thing (thats what everyone tells me anyways) was that I liked her for six years. Yes six years, from sixth grade to senior year of high school. Up until senior year of high school I began to feel nothing for her. I couldn't hear her voice anymore. Thus I gave up on her, I always knew that nothing would ever would have happened between me and her. I think it was my bitterness that took over at that point. I wanted to be loved in a surrounding that hated me for simply existing. It consumed my soul to the point where I wouldn't be able to make any girl happy. Funny thing is she was the one I based Naoki from Demon Savior off of. She will always be the basis for Naoki nothing will ever change that. Speaking of my anime ideas, Mercenaries Suite was based off how I abandoned my love for her.

I think the same thing is happening again too this year. The girl I like I feel nothing when I see her. Granted I'm happy to see her since she's a friend, but when I look at it from a logical stand point I know nothing about her. To counter any arguement that one of my readers have (thats it I know what you're thinking) I'm not sure if I can tell her who I am. I'm not sure if she would care or understand what I've been through up until this point. I probably wouldn't be able to understand her either since we have different personalities. So I've decided that nothing would have happened between us. Don't get me wrong, I just hope that one of these days I'll be able to sit down with her and simply talk with her. She's a part of my class and a part of our community, so when college is over I'll be able to keep in touch with her when everyone goes thier separate ways. So I say my good bye to this girl...

On to the next subject, and I know one reader will love this (again I can read your mind) there is another girl. A little bit about this girl, I met her this year. I'm not going to say much because it'll give it all away. I think that all of the girls that I've liked have been more physical than emotional or spiritual. There's just something about this girl thats beautiful. Seeing her faith and dedication to things spiritual and work is encouraging and inspiring to me. Spritually she is a strong young woman. Seeing her unwavering faith was beautiful, so beautiful that it made me cry (I mean emotional sobs and I screamed a bit). The things she does whether it's helping out behind the scenes or helping others is something I can relate to. Since I live to serve others (since I was a boy scout) and I like to help others too. So I think theres more potential here than anyone else. But then again it all relies on me if there ever will be anything. So until then I can only hope and hope that this girl will continue to grow as the years go on.

That satisfies one reader, A Pitch X- Project: Starfall is tomorrow

Myself as a Fan of Demon Savior

I guess I'd like to take this time to reflect on my favorite things about my third pitch idea Demon Savior. I want to use this time to take a look back on the various looks into this idea, since I believe that eventually I will run out of things to write about for this idea. So I will tell to my faithful readers my favorite things about this idea.

First up my favorite hero character is believe it or not, Marc Huang. While Ryo is based off myself Marc is based off my older brother. I based his character off of various characters who used hand to hand combat such as Sabin from Final Fantasy VI and Rock Lee from Naruto. The thing I admire about him is that he stands as a role model for what Ryo fights for, to be kind in the face of a dark and evil world and protect those who don't deserve it. Another thing I like about him is that he doesn't require a weapon to fight, he's relies on his fists and his 50 caliber handcannon in despirate situations.

Now for my favorite demon generals Cage of Shadow and Radune of Plague. Cage was a character that I felt sounded like the perfect rival to Selpha. He's practically a genius when it comes to the use of his dimension katana Kragon, although he's only second to Kin when it comes to using it to it's full potential. But I always picture Cage using Kragon by twirling it by the ring attached to it's hilt creating a black hole absorbing bullets. Radune the thing I like about his character is that he's a living bio weapon. Since he can make his blood into various chemicals or create viruses in his blood to destroy his opponents.

Now on to what makes this series inspiring to me. Like I mentioned before this series tells of a young man who fights against the darkness that consumed our world, but in the end it was he himself who was saved from that darkness by those who fought alongside him. Like I keep stressing about this series Ryo is me, his story is more or less a fictional representation of my high school life. While no I myself did not fight demons and various criminals, Ryo was saved by his friends who fought with him. That is what happened to me once I got to college, I found a group of people who cared for me and they saved me from the darkness that consumed my heart. So that is why I love this series so much, and the day I run out of things to write about this idea I'll know that I was able to developed this series and it's characters to it's fullest.
