IF YOU WERE TO CREATE A MANGA SERIES...

Zombies, and the people they love.

Okay, that would only work for less than one chapter, but I want an excuse for zombie melodrama, with every piece of dialog being incoherent groaning with lots of dramatic close ups of them wearing ridiculous outfits.

Seriously, though. If I were going to do a comic series it would have to be irrelevant, surreal comedy or sappy fairy tale drama.
A ninja highschool. With aliens. And robots.
I have lots of comic book scripts for all sorts of ideas. I have major superhero universe that I've been planning for like six years. There's also plenty of other ideas, too- from spinoffs of game projects to original darker serious stories.

But I wouldn't make a MANGA because I absolutely hate the anime art style.
I would probably make a pirate manga. But don't worry, it wouldn't be anything like the show One Piece.
I imagine that it might have something to do with Demondestiny having a Naruto icon.

From what I can gather, One Piece and Naruto have some sort of weird rivalry between fan bases. They seem to bash each other a lot.

I've watched neither show, nor do I participate in either community, so I could be dead wrong.

A ninja high school. With aliens. And robots.

I'm all for that. High school+ninjas+aliens+robots=awesome

Combining all of your ideas so far...

In an attempt to save the world from destruction, the Elders took all the ninjas in the world and sealed them away in a crack in the space time continuum. The ninja high school drifts through time and space, and is often attacked by aliens, robots, and pirates, who were also sealed in the space-time continuum and are the rivals of the ninjas. Assorted killer robots and aliens are sometimes taken into the School to learn how to be ninjas themselves. Each character in the school has a long and needlessly complicated backstory.

The main character is a clinically depressed ninja who has been stuck in high school for a long, long time. This ninja also has a phobia of manga (the character's eyes are too big, he says). The school is cared for by zombies, which were reanimated by the ninja teachers from the three hundred corpses used to seal the ninjas inside their prison.

Wheee!
Yeah my idea for the suicidal ninja he all the time tries to kill himself but he cant because he accidentally dodges all his attempts.. or evades them.

Also I love One Piece and Naruto.

I've already seen that one. It's called ??????????????????!, or "Janco Foreign Handlers." And it is excellent.
Holy crap. Somebody actually USED that idea?

Well, I'm not surprised. If the Japanese can invent shows about legendary cooking utensils, stock broker fights and alchemists living in a parallel Germany, than anything is probably fair game. Never heard of "Janco Foreign Handlers", though.

Um... cause I don't think it exists. The great gods of Google have hinted to me so.
I was hoping someone who spoke Japanese would come on and say "But Shadowtext, doesn't '??????????????????!' actually mean 'Let's sell cheap junk to foreigners?'" Alas.
I was at work the whole day, so I missed it.

..whats wrong with One piece?

I don't think there is anything wrong with One Piece and i reckon that it's one of the best anime along with naruto.

Also watched the funimation dub of One Piece on the net today. Makes it even better that it's exactly like the japanese version. It rocks.

*Feels kinda stupid*
I don't know enough Japanese to be all smart like that. And what I do know I sure as hell can't write. v.v

I personally never got into One Piece either, although the idea of somewhat eating a fruit that makes em all stretchy was kind of charming.

But now, tha answer to why Naruto fans and One Piece fans hate each other;
That damn argument about which is cooler; ninjas or pirates. Seriously, that's too much of a coincidence. And do you know what? Ninjas are cooler, sorry. Not neccesarily between these to animes. Just in general.
I could not decide whether one piece or naruto were better. They both just keep on getting better with every time i watch a new episode.

I'm thinking it'd be something like the games I work on, bright and cheery misadventures about 18-24 year olds. Although I think that'd really be more like Azumanga Daioh, so maybe not.
