What do you think that an Anime with this concepts would need to be a masterpiece (or not to be a cliche cluster-fuck)?

-Military Anime.

-Ideology-Conflict between the Nations (in which,with time,the characters will take part of important roles in the conclusion).

-Inner Conflict of the Characters.

-Psychological.

-The importance of the Relationship between the Characters.

-Protagonists that are early-teenagers and are stupid,dumb and annoying at the beginning.

-Protagonists that are underdogs in the beginning.

-Growth of Charaters with Time (Mental,Moral and Physical Growth).

-Death of all Protagonists with time (a long time)(one by one).

-Sadness and Death to be constant Themes.

-Choices in life and their Consequences.

-People living in poor conditions (due to the war)

-All the Humanity living in a colosal-wide world underground.

*Yes,Women in militarism.

If only there was an established universe that has a reputation for stories that contain many of these elements.
>>
LotGH is a good recommendation,but i think that something with more action,drama and terror would be better.

also,what i undestand about the LotGH is that the Main Characters are playing big roles in the beginning.

i want that the characters (and the audience) start understanding almost nothing about the world around them.

>>139563274

isn't about being commercially successful.
if it was about it , it would be better being something about:

>cute girls.
>moe.
>funny ecchi moments.
>katanas.
>explosions.
>onii-chan.


i agree that it would not be something "commercially successful".
but the point here isn't that.
the point in here is how to make an AT-LEAST-GOOD anime with those topics.
>>
>>139563274
Use those concepts and add a heavy dose of Japanese nationalism.

And it will sell.

Preferably it will be in a modern/current setting, include the Chinese as evil enemies and the US as asshole-ish unreliable scheming allies, and the protagonists as loveable dindu nuffings.
>>
>>139556449
Ideology conflict. Character growth from a pure ideology to a personal ideology based on their experiences. Preferably not a loud annoying little shit to begin with.

I really would like to watch a realistic modern naval warfare anime.

No timetravel bullshit like Zipang.
>>
>>139564558
Thank you for your the suggestion.


But about annoying characters

i think that they need to be this way on the beginning
>(to show how they become adults and how much they evolved(in the process of death/sadness/responsability/consequences/death/sadness... ))

Or the opposite.
Someone with a personal ideology towards a pure ideology.
For example, before the war, someone didn't give a shit about Ideology A. As the war goes on, they're seen fighting zealously for the same ideology.

I think it's more interesting.

Thanks for the recommendation,i will see it.

>I have literally never seen a woman in any front line position, the closest thing is the weapon officers for strike eagles. I want to know where this meme comes from.

Yeah,but i want to create something in a less advanced society that have a different culture.

So there is no problem in having a woman in the front line or at the strategy center.

>We need philosophy and edge and cute maids

Thanks for the advice
(but i personally don't like maids).

And money isn't my priority.

---------------------------------------------------------

One of the problems that i had in the beginning was finding a good reason for
"why would early teens would ever enter in the army ?" (maybe or not forced , or because they had no choice*).

*>Yeah,but i want to create something in a less advanced society that have a different culture. (is a different society that is collapsing because of the costs of a war,so that makes sense.)


I found a reasonable explanation.


But i would like to hear fresh,creative and logical ideas.

If anyone have one,i would love to hear.

Inspired by patriotism is one, you could do. also you could start a thread on /tg/ because they usually have some ideas, no promises that it won't devolve into shitposting

See Starship Operators or Mouretsu Pirates.

It is more about cute girls operating hard as fuck, working on the radars, the combat management systems and electronic warfare, while trying to run silent under EMCON to evade enemy detection.

And when that fails, you have missile spam, heavy metal clouds and tracer party.

Would actually be quite fun.

Hell, even having modern shipgirls doing that stuff would be great already, if you want it to be commercially viable.

>-Ideology-Conflict between the Nations
Just don't make a thinly veiled, opinionated retelling of a meatspace conflict and you're golden.
>(in which,with time,the characters will take part of important roles in the conclusion).
haha fuck off. Migh as well write a self insert fanfic.

>>139556449
>-Protagonists that are early-teenagers
lel, child soldiers?

Just make them young adults. People in their early 20 can be just as stupid.

>-Sadness and Death to be constant Themes.
Grimderp is shit. Go read something like tigers covered in mud if you want to show how shitty a battlefield can be without looking like a WH40K parody.

>>139566103
Someone who goes from a cynical edgy shit to an idealist instead of the oher way around? I like it.

>-Growth of Charaters with Time (Mental,Moral and Physical Growth).

I feel like it would be interesting to start out with characters as apathetic and nihilistic at the begining, thinking everything is shades of grey and whatnot. Over the course of the story, they learn that there are things worth fighting for, and that that some things really are that bad, and worth dying to thwart.

Why the fuck does it have to be Waifushit, though? Can't we have plausible soliders?
