Kakikomi Magical Girls
An original concept I developed for fans of anime/manga/JRPGs and currently in production as an online graphic novel and social media content.
Five ordinary young women navigate their own quarterlife crises while battling fearsome adversaries as magical girls!
The archetypical elements of the magical girls genre are adapted to the symbols of life as a young person transitioning into the adult world: costumes are inspired by OL (”Office Lady”) business wear and secondary school uniforms, and weapons are based on office/school supplies. The enemies are called Urei, physical manifestations of human anxiety and despair—emotions that often dominate this transitional period in life.
Someday I hope to expand the concept into a game.
