Sounds like some poor old guy with Alzheimers.

That was my initial conclusion, but the rambling feels too coherent for that, if you take my meaning.

In a world, where voice actors who can't do different voices are shunned for future work because their past roles are too easily remembered, one man has the power to be that voice actor. This fall, be a part of history as you watch Adam Jensen stand in a soup line.

I dunno, Steve Blum keeps finding work in every freaking game I own.  I'm pretty sure Jensen's VA will be fine. 

If not, Steve might end up there too.

Sounds like they thought they were talking in a chat room with other people.

Honestly why hasn't there been a GOOD super hero highschool show yet?

There have been super heros in a highschool.. but that usually amounts to what is just a single class. (So yeah... None of the Xmen shows count)

HECK there have been "Anime hero highschool" animes (though only one for Females that had ALL the female anime archtypes)...

But no Super Hero Highschool? So many things you can do with that concept.

[LeoLeonardoIII]

I know there are people out there (clearly) who would disagree, but what is good about this fascination with adding everything to high school? Why is high school worthwhile to talk about? It would be like "ok it's a normal IT company - except everyone is a superhero!" or "it's a regular hotel - except everyone is a supernatural monster!"

I get that high school is a time of prodigious discovery about the self and a foundry for personalities, but it gets old. Recently came across a Netflix thing where it's a normal high school but everyone's a vampire. WTF? Then we have that forum game about dating girls who attend a high school for the disabled.

So we've got a setting everyone can relate to, where there are weird pressures and people can get away with casual violence and intimidation and forming ridiculous cliques without consequences, and everyone has to be there so it's like prison. Why haven't we seen a prison drama - except everyone is a Frankenstein's Monster?

Because you are the visionary. It's you. Make it happen. Make your fortune.

It's a normal CSI department - except everyone is a good actor and the boss never asks anyone to enhance shit!

They would never make it.

[Flying Dice]

It's a normal CSI department, except everyone speaks in a strange language composed entirely of enhancing videos and donning/doffing sunglasses.

[Karkov]

It's a normal CSI department, except everyone speaks in a strange language composed entirely of enhancing videos and donning/doffing sunglasses.

The best part of that would be when they take it to court.

"Is this the murder weapon?"
"YEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHH!!"
"Why are you putting on sunglasses, I don't- get those away from me, I don't need- sit back down or I'll hold you in contempt!"

It is because nothing replaces a highschool in terms of the elements one can bring forth from it. (I don't think a business is going to have a football club for example)

A setting where people are learning about themselves, others, and their abilities as well. Not to mention highschool really is just one big test for characters and abilities. As well strength of character actually means something with younger protagonists versus adults who are not expected to have character.

I DO hate the "stereotypical highschool" setting and many highschool plots. So Yeah I understand why you hate it, and frankly if I thought it would be like how you are envisioning it... I'd hate it too. They are so busy trying to fulfill the nonsense highschool tropes that have LONG since been retired in real life rather then trying to work with the setting.

It is why I added the "good" to it. Since I already seen the "Monster highschool" show of horrificness... the "musical highschool" of suckyness... and the "fashion highschool" of OHH MY GAWD what are they thinking? (though it had ONE episode I loved... and coincidently it BARELY involved our heroes)

[LeoLeonardoIII]

What about a normal everyday pirate ship - except everyone is secretly an NSA agent?

[Korbac]

This has turned into the provide an anime twist thread.

It's a normal zoo - only ANIMALS tend to HUMANS?!

[Vorthon]

I'd actually watch a series about a hotel manager who has to put up with all sorts of supernatural customers. Like, just this average joe looking all bored as some monster goes over a list of things he can't be near/come in contact with/ingest. And other, more interesting shenanigans. :u
