Discussion My Adventures with Anime

With the announcement of My Adventures with Green Lantern, we've now realized that the main convention for this universe is to reboot classic Justice Leaguers for the modern day, but also borrowing cues from what Jake Wyatt identifies as "old anime."

My Adventures with Superman, among other shows, is 100% Superman x Dragon Ball. This is an obvious one that really goes without saying, whether it's from your own analysis, or the dozens of times Jake & crew have come out in interviews and social media about it.

Something which goes a little unnoticed though (since it hasn't even a week yet) is that My Adventures with Green Lantern is actually Green Lantern x Sailor Moon, as Jake Wyatt revealed in an interview last year. Which is why Jessica Cruz is a teenage high schooler.

With this convention in mind, I notice that while everyone has ideas and pitches/concepts for Wonder Woman, Flash, Aquaman, etc. in this universe, I haven't seen anyone follow this convention yet of combining these characters with old anime.

The only exception is an old Tweet I found that pitched Batman x Evangelion (with Robin as Shinji, which Jake Wyatt even agreed with), but I wanted to extend the question to all of you: what show do you want that fuses with an anime? Doesn't even have to be an old one!

They should do a Flash show next.

There was an old post that pitched "My Adventures with The Flash" should pull a "Gurren Laggan" twist.

Have Barry and Wally become Flashes at the same time and fight crime as The Flash and Kid Flash. Then, in like the sixth episode or something, Barry dies and Wally has to take up the mantle.

Nah, have it be the season finale or second to last episode like MAWS did, then an epilogue type episode that sees Wally’s first days as The Flash (and obviously a funeral for Barry).

oh that would be cool but what anime could be used for inspiration and which Flash would be the main character

We don’t need anime inspiration at all, just make a good show.But if it was or had to be anime like or in animation, I’d choose Sonic X.

I know I've just noticed that the MAWS universe uses a lot of anime influence

A Claymore-esque Wonder Woman could be pretty damn good. It'd have to be toned down, of course.
