Remember those confession blogs? Well, this is kinda like that, except all the confessions are meant to be funny! Whether it's something you genuinely believe or just for shits and giggles, you can submit anything you're too much of a coward to put on your main blog here! Don't be shy, because at the end of the day, we're all equal under the unyielding hands of death!
Hi! I wrote a book about a twentysomething burnout henshin hero using their secret identity and homemade power suit to explore their gender and pay the bills through social media! Now I’m posting it online! You should read it!
Synopsis:
When early-20s burnout Alice tries to track down the local Portland superheroine Sky Horizon, she finds out that the heroine's true identity is none other than her old classmate Oliver, another early-20s burnout who uses the transformation to volunteer and survives off his Patreon. As he sheepishly explains, he designed the suit after his favorite tokusatsu superhero shows like Kamen Rider or Power Rangers.
When the suit's design gets leaked, however, he'll have to fight in earnest to keep his creation out of unscrupulous hands, and confront parts of himself he didn't think he was strong enough to face.
A YA-ish superhero story about shame, about responsibility, about how loving an idea enough is all you need to make it real.
I plan to update every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday for the next couple weeks- give it a look!
Donbrothers Character Song English Translation: My Wife is My Life (マイワイフ is マイライフ)
Let’s go! If my wife is there
I know I’ll be fine, whatever trouble I’m in
This life is my life. When I hear
“Welcome home” and “I’m back”
I become strong again
A regular life is (fu-fu) mediocrity (fu-fu)
And I’ve come this far walking along the road of (fu-fu) mediocrity (fu-fu)
Nothing can compare to these days, even when my head sags low every day
When I think about my family, power comes welling up inside
Let’s go! If it’s for my wife
I can even be bold
I’m going to live this life, my life
I'll get on track and fall off it
And still, I’ll try to do my best today
When the frustration gets high enough (fu-fu) rampage (fu-fu)
Sometimes you need to let it out and (fu-fu) rampage (fu-fu)
Stuff like common sense and rules, even scary and dangerous things
I’ll overcome it all because you’re at my side
Let’s go! If it’s for my wife
I’ll do it with maximum power
This life, my life
Let’s write the rest of it together
Hoping that there will be no pain
Let’s go! If my wife is there
I’ll never be beaten
This life is my life. When I hear
“Welcome home” and “I’m back”
I become strong again
