Challenge
Write a Piece Inspired by Anime
Whether it's an entire story, a poem, or a few lines, I want to read pieces inspired by anime. Your writing can be inspired by a quote from anime, an anime's theme, a whole genre of anime; whatever you want to do! My only request, is that you please include the anime's name either in your piece or in the comments. I'll include an example of my own. I'm so excited to read your entries!
Ickshnay the Anime
I keep seeing these prompts and cannot play
cause I don’t know nothin‘ bout anime
But not to worry, I’ll rock old school
And bring back ’toons that were really cool
Are these new shows y’all want to parody
really better than Merry Melody?
B-B-Boy, Ah say boy, pay attention now
Ah says, “Ah’m a rooster, not a chicken or cow”
Andele, andele, run Speedy run, but
Senor Rodriguez, “he pack a gun.”
There’s a big crop of carrots pulled fresh from the ground
so dat wascally wabbit’s, “Alabamy bound!”
And there’s Hannah-Barbera, or Looney Tunes
Popeye the Sailor and Mr. Magoo
I’ll have to give anime a pass
and remember the ’toons that made us laugh
