Name my manga

Postby anime4christ » Sun Apr 03, 2005 6:56 pm

Hi everyone, I want to make a manga about a girl (based on a true story, BTW) who almost commits suicide, but becomes Christian in the end. I can't think of a good name, can someone plz help me? Thanks.

How about 'On Heaven's Wings?'
Or maybe something along the lines of "treasures out of darkness'

Anyway, sorry I cant think of any more...I have to go catch a bus to uni...

Sound real cool, you sure are good at this, Talame. Kinda sounds like fanfic though. I'll definitely keep that in mind

Hmm... I'm not sure the story has anything to fit with that, maybe I was a little vague on the description there. Basicaly, the girl has wanted to comit suicide for a while now and so did her friend. So, her friend found out the "best method" for commiting suicide. When she was about to do it, her other friend called her and invited her to Christian camp. So then she calls her bad friend again when she was about to do it and invites her too. At camp, both girls are saved. This actually happened to someone from my town.

Well hope you manga goes well I'm working on one right now, and I know how hard it is coming up with names. :)

Ah, I was just thinking of an old saying "God writes straight with crooked lines", meaning He can bring good even out of people you wouldn't think possible.

With your theme, you might be interested in looking at the manga story "The Door" in Confidential Confessions #1 by Reiko Momochi. Not a Christian approach, but very anti-suicide (may have some objectionable content and was rated "OT" for ages 16+)

I'll agree, but there's just something that doesn't fit completely there, I just can't put my finger on it. Possibly because it sounds like somone wants to live when in reals they didn't at first I guess or something. It kind of seams like the story backwards maybe. But I was thinking, maybe go from there, change it around a little or something. I don't know. What do you guys think? I have no idea.

:hug: You'll be fine A4C! If you are meant to do this, then nothing (let alone a title) will stop you cause you have Christ on your side :grin:

Have you tried praying for inspiration, or help to chose a proper title?

hmmm... *gears in brain turn*

"Cut Away the Bad" or "A Cut Away"
"The Best Way"
"Suicide's Argument - God's Answer" (to borrow a title from a poem)
"Second Chances"
"Death to Suicide"

can't think of anything else right now... hope these help, at least some...

*prods* do you have any art floating around that we can see?

how about......

ai kara joukai

that means "love from heaven" in japanese

i can't get enough of japanese manga names, or of the japanese language....i don't know if your comic is realted to japan in any way though, though since it is anime, i would imagine it might have some relation........

soo.....anyway....consider it...if you want me to give you more japanese phrases that have other meanings then just PM me and i will see what i can do for you

Well, not really related, it happened in California, but that's not a bad idea, since the characters have Japanese names (only in the manga, not in reals).

that could work, but most of the one word titles are a little vague and probably already used. Would it be of any help to know the tool she wanted to use? A syringe. (Although I'm not sure I want that word in the title). :bang: Still thinking.
