Pretty odd pair this week. The first is an RCM beginning, making the start extremely wide open for possibility. The other is Drive, which is always kind of fun.
Cross a Witch: The prompt is "Namika Natsume, a nice girl that accidentally insults a witch." Well, it seems to me that what happens here is pretty obvious really. We start out by defining our main characters everyday life, set up a few other characters for her to interact with that will comprise the rest of the cast, then end the episode by having her accidentally insulting the witch. Probably by claiming that magic doesn't exist, or something like that. From there, options to split off various possibilities.
Drive: So we have an Angel girl sitting in a NERV holding cell, and Rei has won the little contest among the pilots. Man but this can go in some fun directions, almost too many for me to pick. Which do we want to focus on more? Or maybe look in on someone else? I can't decide, too many possibilities! What would you rather see here?
You seem to have thought up the Cross A Witch Thing nicely already. I cannot really add anything, though a interesting question is whether it is a good or bad witch and if the main character does something that only annoys her, or if it really gets the witch into big trouble.
ReplyDeleteDrive is certainly among the storylines that are most fun. I would like to see Rei trying to find out what to do with her temporary servants. She has to make the best out of it, maybe she will Research on the Internet? She could ask Misato and the elder woman could suggest looking on the net or I don't know, buying toys and cosplay? She seems like the type who would know of such stuff.
And also maybe a Scene where Ritsuko and Gendo try to interrogate the Angel Girl to find out more about her. I don't think we have seen much of how this has influenced the Ikari Patriarch. Maybe this entire Thing has taken off some of his bastardness a Little, if only due to being distracted by certain thoughts?
