Aren't you suppose to use the YKTTW for this, or is this a free launch?

Oh, well. Since I was the one who suggested this anyways, I could give some advice:

  • One required trope is a Artifact of Doom, maybe given by a supernatural entry. While this can be a Artifact of Death, like the Death Note, it could also have other major powers. For example: The ability to control other people or the ability to summon anything. However, there still have to be limits.

More importantly, how do we distinguish So You Want To Write The Next Death Note from So You Want To Write The Next Code Geass? Also, explain how LostBrain failed at either.

It was not me who was wrong... IT WAS THE WORLD!

Maybe this then:

  • Bunny Eared Lawyer: Have at least one character be a eccentic genius. This can be the antagonist (like L) but maybe it could be the protaganist for a change. Choose a few quirks, like Sweet Tooth, and use them to craft a memorable personality that outshines Sherlock Holmes.
