Determined Sisters Manga

📘 Estructura de 12 Paneles: "El Auto que quería Cariño" Panel 1: El Escenario Visual: Un galpón rural polvoriento. Al fondo, un auto viejo cubierto de una capa de polvo blanca (como harina). El Ogre Bueni entra con una linterna. Diálogo (Ogre): —Che auto… ¿hoy querés arrancar? Prompt Manga: Wide shot, dusty barn interior. An old, boxy classic car covered in thick white dust. Friendly ogre entering. Manga linework, screentones. Panel 2: El Rechazo Visual: Primer plano del faro del auto que parece un ojo soñoliento. Una burbuja de texto sale del motor. Diálogo (Auto): —No… ay, no… déjenme dormir… Prompt Manga: Close-up of the car's headlight looking like a sleepy eye. Text bubble coming from the engine. Grumpy expression. Panel 3: El Sapo Churro Visual: Sapo Aldo toca el auto con un dedo y se llena de polvo. Está blanco de pies a cabeza. El Ogre y la Vaca Bueni miran asombrados. Diálogo (Aldo): —¡Ay, parezco un churro! ¡Ja, ja! Prompt Manga: Small toad named Aldo covered in white dust. He looks like a "churro" (powdered snack). Comedy manga style, speed lines. Panel 4: El Gato Salvador Visual: Un gato entra con una aspiradora vieja y ruidosa que rebota por el suelo (Boom, boom). Diálogo (Gato): —¡Acá vengo a salvar el día! Prompt Manga: Smug cat dragging a retro vacuum cleaner. Tail held high. Dynamic perspective. SFX: BOOM BOOM. Panel 5: El Caos de la Limpieza Visual: La aspiradora encendida a máxima potencia (FIIIUUU). El gato sale volando hacia atrás por la succión, con los pelos de punta. Diálogo (Gato): —¡Me dejó el pelo como nube! Prompt Manga: Action panel. Vacuum sucking air violently. Cat flying backwards with static, puffy fur. High energy, chaotic manga effect. Panel 6: El Gran Esfuerzo Visual: Todos empujan el auto. La Vaca con la nariz, los sapos por atrás, el Ogre de un costado. El auto está plantado y hace sonar la bocina molesto. Diálogo (Vaca): —Está haciendo capricho. Prompt Manga: Group effort. Ogre, cow, and toads straining to push the car. Sweat drops. SFX: HONK! (Bocina). Panel 7: La Sabiduría del Pato Visual: El Pato Bueni llega caminando tranquilo con aire de profesor mientras el Sapo Pepe se ríe en el suelo. Diálogo (Pato): —¿Probaste preguntarle qué quiere? Prompt Manga: Duck with a small bowtie looking wise. Sapo Pepe laughing in the background. Calm vs Chaos. Panel 8: El Secreto Revelado Visual: El Ogre se agacha frente al paragolpes, escuchando con atención. El auto susurra. Diálogo (Auto): —Yo quiero que me laven… Prompt Manga: Emotional panel. Ogre leaning close to the car's grill. Tiny, shaky text bubble. Sweet moment. Panel 9: El Spa del Campo Visual: Montaje de limpieza. La Vaca tira agua, los sapos frotan las ruedas y el gato limpia los vidrios mientras canta. Prompt Manga: Montage panel. Multiple small scenes of the animals scrubbing and washing the car. Bubbles and sparkles everywhere. Panel 10: ¡Como Nuevo! Visual: El auto brilla intensamente. Los personajes se tapan los ojos por el reflejo del sol en la carrocería. Diálogo (Gato): —¡Epa! ¡Parece un auto último modelo! Prompt Manga: The car is sparkling white/silver. Intense light glints (shoujo manga sparkles). Characters looking impressed. Panel 11: ¡Arranca! Visual: El Ogre gira la llave. Humo feliz sale del escape y el motor ruge con fuerza. Los sapos saltan del susto. Diálogo (Sapos): —¡Ah! ¡Nos asustó! Prompt Manga: Dynamic engine start. "VROOM" SFX in big letters. Toads jumping in mid-air from surprise. Panel 12: Final Feliz Visual: El auto manejando solito llevando las cajas, todos los animales saludando y riendo. Diálogo (Vaca): —Solo necesitaba cariño… y un baño. Prompt Manga: Wide shot. Car driving happily towards the horizon (or boxes). All characters waving. Heart icons. "FIN".
In a world where a few can bend probability through raw will, a quiet drifter named Kai Kurozawa discovers his gift isn’t luck—it’s a loaded weapon. Each choice twists the odds, but the universe charges interest. SERIES BIBLE (Concise) Power System — Will / Odds / Backlash • Dwellers: Rare individuals who can impose Tacks (micro‐edits to probability) via focused Will. • Odds: A visualized “grain” of reality; Dwellers sense vectors of likely outcomes as shimmering filaments. • Tacks: Intentional nudges (“make that rope snap,” “let the bus be 8 seconds late”). Each Tack accrues Fate Friction—stress that rebounds later as Backlash (nosebleeds → fractures → catastrophic karmic events). • Edges: Personal rituals or anchors (coin flips, mantras) that stabilize Will and reduce friction. • Zeroshift (mythic tier, late series): A liminal state where Odds are a silent ocean and Will is a blade—do not reveal yet. World • Haven District: Port-city sprawl; rusted rooftops, market alleys, flooded underpass murals. • Glassline Metro: Arteries of the city; reflective tunnels where odds feel “loud.” • The Quiet: A rumored zone where Odds stop moving—foreshadowing endgame forces. Factions • Municipal Risk Office (MRO): Bureau that tracks statistical anomalies; polite on paper, predatory in practice. • The Erased: Black-bag unit rumored to “remove” unstable Dwellers. Recurring Antagonists • Rael, “The Eraser”: Uncanny calm; his talent dampens other Dwellers’ Tacks in close range. He is the city’s whispered full stop. • Anti-Kai (Kairo Tsukami): Never named on-page yet. Thematic opposite of Kai—fixes outcomes by stealing other people’s Will. Themes • Choice vs. inevitability, the cost of power, anonymity in crowds, the math of mercy. VISUAL STYLE GUIDE (for art consistency) • Line: Clean, high-contrast inks; thin outline on faces, heavy shadows on urban geometry. • Tone: Filmic noir with sharp whites for the “Odds” filaments. • Odds Visualization: Fine hairline threads and moiré patterns drifting off objects; when Kai focuses, threads bloom like dandelion seeds frozen mid-gust. • SFX: Minimalist lettering, small caps with long em dashes for sustained sounds (e.g., VRRR—). • Panel Rhythm: Quiet micro-panels for intention → explode into wide panels for consequence. CAST (Core + Non-Dwellers — at least 5) Kai Kurozawa (17) • A drifter with a coin ritual. Soft voice, sharp eyes. Edge: Coin Flip. • Quirk: Counts his breaths when deciding; breath 7 is commitment. • Flaw: Terrified of being the cause. Mei Arakawa (19) — Journalism student, street photographer. Non-Dweller. • Brave to a fault; sees patterns in people. Keeps instant camera on wrist. Jun “Switch” Tanaka (18) — Electronics stall kid; builds things from city trash. Non-Dweller. • Grease smudges, perpetual grin, a tool roll like a scroll. Aya Mori (20) — Med student volunteering at a night clinic. Non-Dweller. • Steady hands; refuses to look away from ugly truths. Inspector Haruto Ishii (34) — MRO field officer. Non-Dweller. • Polite, dry, exhausted; catalogues “anomaly sites.” Koji Nakamura (52) — Market grocer. Non-Dweller. • Kind man, jokes in proverbs. (Mark as at risk in early arcs.) Daichi (12) — Rooftop runner, orphan. Non-Dweller. • Knows every shortcut; sells maps he draws by hand. Rael (??) — “The Eraser.” Dweller. • Neutral face; shoes make no sound. The city gets quiet when he arrives. HIDDEN SEEDS in Chapter One • Page 3: A passerby with a ring—three triangular prongs. Later revealed as an Erased marker. • Page 17: Black van reflection in puddle (MRO plate pattern: 131-21). • Page 28: Blank spot in Kai’s Odds vision (Rael’s signature dampening at distance). • Final Page: A second coin in gutter, heads scratched with a thin inverted cross (Anti-Kai sigil—unexplained). CHAPTER ONE: PAGE-BY-PAGE SCRIPT & STORYBOARD Length: 36 pages (tankōbon pacing). Goal: Introduce Kai, demonstrate low-tier Tack, show cost, hook with a moral pivot.
