I felt like doing something different today and so I played around a bit in Photoshop. Even if I am not using any original art, I managed to “collage” my way into a concept for a Manga. It is Called. Suturandopinki: I stranded in Paradise now I have to save the internet with smiles. Today I want to give you a preview.
Plot Summary

A young woman is shipwrecked..hearing the mysterious voice of a woman she calls Bean the girl wakes up on a tropical Island. Soon she befriends a beach ball and a duck who tell her all about the evil lord Shikamettsura, who is trying to destroy all the happiness of the way bigger.. and much more crowded “Internet Island. Since the evil Lord banishes everything happy.. and it ends up on the island of the girl she decides to build a resort with i, which the citizens of internet Island can visit to experience happiness still. Now a thorn in Shikamettsura’s sight, the woman nicknamed Pinkie and her friends have to discover the magical power of smiles to face the dark minions and to keep happiness alive.
The plot is obviously based on my website and what it stands for. Taking inspiration from both elements of my real life and my blogging life and topping it with anime sauce and plenty of renames. It might feature spoofs of other bloggers, youtube personalities and other things. All in good spirit of course. My wordpress journey.. the imaginative Manga retelling is what this will be.

Art

As I am not an artist this is all repurposed art I found elsewhere. Most characters will be done in a simple and easily to mimic style and I will make sure to not include detailed OCs or art in it. I will try to stick to to chibi maker characters and basic art as much as possible. Should you want your OC feature in this feel free to ask. I do not claim any of this art as my own I simply wish to express myself in a way that might be enjoyable for my readers as well as be fun for me to make. Again everything I do I try to do in good spirit and to have fun.
Release Schedule

When will I release it? I am not yet sure! I think I will release it on my blog in ten page episodes as each page does take a long time for me to make. So it will be done when it is done and I will work on it whenever I feel inspired. So you will all just have to wait and see when it will be released….surprise! To get you in the spirit a bit however I have a three page .. and title page preview for you all. Like any Manga you read from Right to left.Enjoy the preview! And remember to keep smiling!

That looks like such a fun project to make your own manga. You should totally serialize it on your blog and maybe make an Ezine of sorts with other web manga. Shoot, I wish people would check out my fiction projects and I’ll have to do something about it.

It’s just a delight to make so far. Just a nice zaney little depiction of myself. Not sure how to make an Ezine but I will definatly bring the series to the blog.
I have not encountered any of your fiction projects yet.. but I am getting a system in order to check all blogs so I will become more unlikely to miss it soon!

I sure bet. That’s a really cool idea to make your own manga in general. Of course, I don’t have many art and design skills in that regard. Maybe the ezine could be a manga thing like Shonen Jump.
It’s okay if you didn’t know. I have another blog that focuses on it and I even have a few free stories (mainly cell phone novels): https://www.pastemagazine.com/noisetrade/books/cmbbell

Is “Shikamettsura” based on an English word? I’ve been trying to sound it out, but can’t quite guess it. 😂
