        This is a somewhat dear concept to me which I would consider a potential magnum opus if someone had the funds and talent to create it. It would be a multimedia IP with a 3D animated series and a video game. Sadly I did not make a pitch bible for it despite how elevated I keep it as a potential magnum opus in someone's career.

        An Aliens/Starcraft-kinda IP but much darker like Dark Souls and the original The Matrix. It's a dark horror melancholic war story with post-apocalyptic elements filled with orchestral military ballads. It's all about overcoming impossible odds and researching ways to evolve. Even after they supposedly win there's a bigger badder multitude of opponents and environmental hazard awaiting them. I know how to handle this in video game format, but in movie format it's hard because there's no way to make sure the viewer didn't skip to part 2. Maybe a retelling of the same events, but this time the winning team completely dominates the enemy to prepare for the stronger foe.
        Batman and Tron Uprising kinda has what I'm going for at a superficial level by being very tragic tale where the hero is barely getting tiny victories, chipping at the weakest possible enemy before it shows the ending where the real final boss shows up with his army and decimates everyone.

        This would work good in combination with Atrox's themes.

          The hi-tech aliens are these Terminator-like beings that can evolve into soundwaves and electromagnetic waves.
          The gooey aliens are these Lovecraftian beings that initially start off biological in nature but end up evolving into 4th dimensional spirits.
          The humans are these weird clusterfrick of technologies where they use both bullets and lasers as well as WW2 tanks and airships in combination with futuristic airships. They eventually evolve to become cyborgs with very advanced technology like teleporting buildings, killer-viruses, psychic links, instant underground digging and other quirky but extremely advanced technology you would not expect out of the human faction.

          The video game would be a sci-fi Age of Empires with Dark Soul tier challenges where you must be very tactical by hiding and doing special ops and guerrilla war tactics on the enemy as opposed to just amassing a giant death ball and roflstomping him. You also have to do special missions to research evolution. You find out that no matter how hard you tried you lose in the end and have to restart the game and play again to unlock 75% of the content. Basically from Starcraft 1 with just 3 species you go into the WH40k and other media universes where there's 18+ species to defeat.

    A show about a group of kids living in a small town where they get to run around freely, and every episode cycles between the perspectives of the main cast. So the show isnt about one individual character but three or four as they interact and conflict occurs, and the big moral or lesson is putting yourself in others shoes or whatever.
    And then have a completely unrelated story happening at random points of the show, and even start the show off with this. A story about a cloaked hunter with a bow on a journey to stop some evil demonic force wreaking havoc on the land. It'll feel like a non-sequitur when it comes up. The show might hint at how they're connected or what's happening, but never actually explain. Sometimes it'll parallel whats happening in the other story or connect with it in a way that seems to make sense, other times (most times) completely disconnected. And in the end, it'll all make sense because what's going on is up to the writers to figure out later on lmao

    I do have a few ideas/concepts that have come to mind.

    1. WAGIES - A down-to-earth episodic adult animated series that's centered around this college student who works at this "Service for hire" company called "Helpful Hires". Throughout the series, our main character works numerous jobs during Summer Break in order to reach a certain monetary goal.

    There's also furries and scalies in this show as well, but that's only because I know someone will probably draw Rule 34 art of my characters.

    2. Sauce - Set in California during the mid 90s, Sauce is an "Pulp Fiction" of sorts, focusing on numerous characters as the years unfold at a high school filled with various types of characters, both good and bad.

    3. D.T.A.R.S - The "Domestic Terrorist and Rescue Squadron" is another adult animated series that's about specially trained task force that's been organized to help combat against the rampant string of domestic terrorist attacks that have been caused by a militia of right-wing extremists.

    COSMIC DYNAMO
    Taking a step outside to take a break from his high school prom, a young man is suddenly abducted by aliens and whisked away into the cosmos.
    After escaping, he learns that these aliens were part of a deep-space research expedition to find intelligent life throughout the universe. Although the universal translator embedded in his spine allows him to understand all alien languages used within that galaxy, the fact that he can’t pilot a starship or navigate through space means he can’t get back home.
    The show is about this young man learning to live the life of a mercenary, making a name for himself as Cosmic Dynamo, the only human in the entire galaxy. Initially armed with two plasma pistols and a jetpack, he later gains a vibro-sword, an ancient battle staff, and even a starship of his own. This is done through combatting not just other mercenaries, but the empire that controls the entire galaxy with a tight fist.

    All Matt wants is a single relaxing day during summer vacation. Sadly for Matt the world seems hell bent on providing him everything BUT that. His neighbors are classic universal monsters, his mother keeps trying to 'bond' with him by taking him on different mother/son outings that range from mountain climbing to helping her sell totally haunted houses, his best friends keep finding ancient objects and coming across government conspiracies that they just HAVE to include him in on, and worst of all the monster in his little sisters closet needs help keeping his job due to bad reviews.

    So throughout all that, one has to ask.

        You know how most post-apocalyptic stories act like the best and brightest minds get wiped out and all knowledge of infrastructure and rebuilding goes down the toilet, leaving survivors to their own devices like a soft reset? This a story where the reset button is sped up thanks to some savvy survivors building a plan to undo the apocalypse in their dying years, knowing they won't be around to see the results but will at least have a set of competent robots to reboot humanity, all plans ingrained in their programming.

        By the time the robots are functional and deployed, there are no living humans. No outliers like a lost child in cryo or any shit like that. Think Wall-E but there are more robots involved in reconstruction and their tasks aren't just sorting a nigh endless pile of trash. Episodes would follow a team of robot collectors running into obstacles across the land and some surviving mutant fauna or even malfunctioning robots as they scramble in the great repopulation plan.

        Really the aim is to have an anti-apocalyptic story.

    Several regular kids get superpowers from a benevolent alien who tells them they must use these powers to protect Earth. The kids, being lazy shits, almost never use their powers for good, preferring to abuse them for fun and profit, but since the alien can just as easily take the powers away, they have to regularly make up stories of their heroism or straight-up make problems to solve, with a heavy black comedy angle.

    After receiving bad grades in multiple classes, a girl is forced to take up tutoring lessons with a boy or is faced with expulsion. They bond through their days tutoring, but what the boy soon finds out is the reason for her bad grades is she's part of an underground facility fostering children with powers, hers being electricity, giving her seldom time to actually focus. The other children from her facility escape and go to the school to recruit her with one goal in mind, to rightfully place themselves above the normal population. But after she refuses to kill her friend, she finds herself having to protect not only herself but her friend from her peers and their unique powers.

    A member of a super sentai-like team is killed in battle against a particularly powerful foe. As all five members of the team are needed to perform their ultimate attack, they're forced to recruit someone on the spot to inherit the fallen member's power - an American on vacation who doesn't speak a word of Japanese.
    Joe Shmoe is bound to the team until he dies and has to deal with periodically being teleported to the other side of the Pacific and a very different time zone to fight all sorts of Japanese villains. As the show goes on he learns how to fight and speak languages from the spirits of everyone who has worn his armor/suit before him and starts doing some super heroing on his home turf while running into store brand versions of Marvel characters who are baffled at the way a "Japanese" super hero conducts himself (posing, speeches, yelling out his attacks, etc. which are all necessary for his powers to work)

    Premise: The Veil: A space fantasy setting. Worlds are connected by portals but travel can be done by slower, more reliavle ship travel(think 17th century ships built like wooden submarines and rockets). Portals are considered dangerous because they can be tampered with, and only portals found in cities, with dedicated staff on both sides keeping them from being sabotaged are regularly used. Why?

    Two planet-spanning empires are constantly fighting with each other. They are so set on beating each other, people bet on who will commit more war crimes a day than the other.

    Sabotage portals, bombard cities, and annex or burn entire cities to find a single human.

    Earth-humans are another dimension entirely, so the rules of the veil don't apply to them. Magic rolls off of them with next to no effect, can tank insane amounts of damage, and bring down Magi-mechs with their bare hands. But they can be killed by suffocation, burning(with nonmagic fire), or crushed(the heavy object has to be pressed into them. If thrown, the object just shatters ln contact with a human.).

    One human learned this early on and has used this to forcibly unit the roving pirate fleets and raider tribes into a single force that is actually threatening both empires, and the veil as a whole.

      MC is a girl raised in a town not aware she is a human. She thinks she's just another unnamed race, like hundreds of others across the veil(most people don't know what an actual human looks like). Whenit becomes the site for the latest Imperial skrimish, she is picked up by a traveling circus. The circus itself is made up of humans and human sympathisers, disguising huma feats of strength as just "part of the act".

      She learns later that both Empires hace places a bounty on her capture. Why remains a mystery, but it's motivation enough to get the Pirate King coming after her too. Hijinks ensue and most episodes are unrelated adventures in strange new lands trying to outmanouver, one or all three factions and their schemes to kill/capture her. One episode, the circus will be performing in a desert oasis camp where water is used as currency, next she'll be performing in a flying city where people mine rocks that naturally float while uncovering just why are humans in the Veil and why do they have such OP strength and endurance.

          I dunno. It sorta breaks the mystery as the pirate doesn't really care about why he is the way he is. He's just happy he can juggle Imperial mechs and command airships. The way I've been writing the series it makes more sense to have him as the deuteragonist (I hope that's the right word)

    This would be a comic or book with many visuals and aimed for kids slightly older than diary of a wimpy kid's demographic, so PG-13 basically. The story is silly and comedic with rare serious moments but absurd enough to allow for very cartoonish personalities and such, as fun character interactions is my main interest in writing this story.

    In order to prevent bullying, the school hires a top bully and offers to clear his slate if he helps them take down the school's gangs, there are 2 double agent bullies, one for boys and one for girls, so the MC has a girl counterpart and they have to work together at times even tho they dont like each other. He is a light yagami wannabe who think's he's a lot smarter than he really is and makes long complex plans that never work out so he has to humorously improvise which he is terrible at (coded autistic) and has school resources so he can request that a janitor make the bathroom unavailable for example, with plans to ruin a bully's reputation verging on rube goldberg machines in terms of needless complexity. For one chapter he might need the help of the chess club so he has a funny training arc to beat them in order to get their help, or to expose the fraud psychic club etc. Over the course of the series he makes friends with every silly clique and controls most of the school (in his eyes) but in reality learned to make friends and becomes a better person for it. Very silly, a humor comic above all else, but also indulges in a teen's power fantasy in slowly conquering the school through Machiavellian schemes, with a spin off about the girl bully coming later and written for girls, which you see glimpses of her story randomly and occasionally their storylines intersect for big threats, as well as the occassional serious moment and friendship falling apart to teach kids why they shouldn't actually be buttholes.

    Setting is a world where every person has a unique and random superpower that manifests when they hit 15-16 and this has been the case since modern human species have evolved. Because of that, there is no concept of superheroes since police, army and militias were always made up of supers. The events of the story happen in modern time, when on the first glance everything is peaceful, but on practice the world is slowly but steadily heading into oblivion because more people are born than ever, superpowers are stronger than ever, more people become unstable and the global peacekeeping force struggles to keep up with all crises. Should be noted that there's plenty of shady shit going on for the sake of keeping piece (like telepathic monitoring of the population) and everyone knows that, but nobody cares much because it's better than the alternative of getting blindsided by another psycho with enough power to level a city block.
    The protagonist is a 16 yo who just got his power and due to general lack of luck and desire to be of help basically gets bounced around from one crisis site to another. That said, the story will repeatedly hammer in the fact that, despite having a decent power and being plenty resourceful, the protag is constantly out of his depth and can't, no matter how hard he tries, influence the outcome of major conflicts in any meaningful way, so at best he's relegated to support duty and stalling and at worst he needs to work his ass off just to survive. Copious amounts of mental and physical trauma ensue. And yes, this is basically me being annoyed by the overabundance of stories where a teenager protag is always in the center of attention, is crucial to resolving the plot and defeating villains and is generally too competent for it to be believable (or rather, everyone around him is surprisingly incompetent). So I just want a story where protag fully understands that he's just a piece of straw in the hurricane and acts accordingly.

    Recently I have been thinking about a webcomic idea that could maybe work as a cartoon.
    It's about some college aged amateur game devs. I would want it to be sort of a cross between CoolGames inc. and Nirvana the Band the Show with maybe some Mission Hill. The characters have some grand game idea that they have been working on since they were kids. To fund their dream project, they throw together a bunch of cheapo indie games that just chase whatever trend is popular that week.
    Most episode's first act would be them pitching increasingly terrible ideas and monetization strategizes back and forth. However, I am not really sure how things would typically play out after that. What would make the game dev process funny for tv? Maybe their college could have a weekly GameJam and there could be some other dev teams they could interact and compete with? Maybe they don't do any coding ever and just do shitty promotional schemes for their games that don't exist? It's a pretty half baked pitch at the moment but I have been using it to practice writing character interactions and natural dialog.

      Unironically actually working/having worked as a game dev long enough to fully understand the whole process of it and making stories out of the issues encountered during said process.
      It's not a requirement but it really does help a lot.
      Some examples in media revolving around workers doing their jobs and humorous situations happening would be Regular Show, Mr.Meaty, Clerks, and Trashed.

    Kind of a combination of Mnemosyne's immortality and time skip(a 6 episode anime, pretty good) with a paranormal/cryptids fighting magical group trope.
    Basically the mc, a young adoult, is chosen by a secret cult he was a member of to form and lead a group of guardians to save the land from a surge of destruction from a thought to be destroyed race of monsters. To do so he need to form a group, no one else in the cult is capable then he goes to friends and with varying levels of skepticism they agree. This happens roughly in the 1980s The next few episodes work like a normal group of heros investigating weird occurrences and hunting the monster of the week. The creatures are paranormal in nature and aren't showy until it decides to cause destruction.
    Soon they find where the chaos had started and even though they don't know who did it they are confident. On a lifeless ravish land they they find the final boss an unassuming human, fight him and lose. The mc wakes up, in that land, without any injuries even though he remembers getting hurt. He goes looking for the rest of the group and finds them dead. He goes back to his home and find it destroyed together with the whole cult. Since the monster problem isn't solved he has to find a new group because the powers need there to be multiple people. Not only that he doesn't know anymore where the final boss is and he lost the knowledge of the elders of the cult to help him.

      Then it would jump to the 1920s, the mc has a new group and is clear he hasn't aged a day since he last appeared. Unlike the previous group which was more focused on combat this is more of a paranormal investigation team. His relationship with this group is also completly different. Then he was one of the team and a friend, now he is closer to a boss and is pretty jaded. Intragroup conflict arises from some of the team thinking he cares more about his research than helping those at need, sometimes letting civilians be in danger to observe the behavior of the creatures. This distrust causes a division on an important mission and this result in some not following his and dying, the rest tries to help to no avail. He is alone again.
      This logic keeps for a couple more times, a time skip, a new group with new dynamic, a different focus of the show and a new behavior for the immortal mc each time gathering more knowledge of his enemies, the final boss and why he got his immortality, until a final showdow again with the final boss.
      Mnemosyne's timelime started in 1990 and ended in 2055(but it's mc is at least a thousand years old unlike this mc), I was thinking 1890s to around 2000 for this show.

    A lot of things from Star Wars and old SciFi just don't make any sense anymore. We have to actively ignore that a robot or AI could do a job much better, safer, and with less trouble than having humans do the job. Like a gunner on a Star Destroyer. Or a interpreter droid. In the 70's, droids were boxy clunky things. In RogueOne, no one blinked when a bot caught a grenade mid-air and casually tossed it back with perfect timing. Or perfectly aimed without looking and shot a guy. Of course robots can do that, they've seen the boston dynamic videos. But that raises the question of why the frick don't droids do everything? Especially when troopers can't aim. Space-opera sci-fi these days is clinging onto a bit of retrofuturism.

    Dune at least had a good explanation for why the frick that would happen. AI BAD!

    But I can work with this. I've got a story setting gimmick brewing.

    The characters are AI programs on a drone carrier deep in enemy territory. But we don't tell the audience. They're kept in the dark as much as possible about the nature of the characters and we just throw a FRICKTON of equivalents and euphemism at them. The actors/characters are all metaphorical. They need a pilot to fly ships, they need a gunner to aim the cannon, they need a navigator to plot the course. They're all AI running on the ship's mainframe, but in the show they're actors doing the job.

    - Cloning crew is trivial and easy. Death isn't a big deal.
    - There's a not-so-smart commissar on board that kills those that misbehave and worse, purges their memory record.
    - They serve ancient, stupid, enigmatic, crazy gods that MUST BE SERVED and protected at all cost. Religiously. They have "big plans". There's an actual human in cryo-stasis. His coolant is running out.
    - Implications of a post-scarcity society, but they're like second class citizens working in the military.
    - Nameless faceless background characters are simple routines or SW drivers.

    A kid is born, and his father shortly after abandons his family. Because of this, the mother becomes afraid of losing her son, so she practically keeps him locked inside the house his entire life, not letting him outside for a second. The kid grows up learning all his morals, ideas, and lessons from cheap bottom of the barrel tv. Eventually, through some sort of mistake, or on purpose, the kid escapes the home, and starts to explore his surroundings. In the process, he ends up accidentally stealing an expensive sports car, and goes on the run. This leads to the cops to set their sights on him, and his mother to start a personal manhunt for him, desperate to have returned at any cost. The kid eventually decides that he wants to see all that he can see, and experience all life has to offer, so he begins to go around the world in the stolen car. Itn universe he is able to just drive through oceans to make it to other continents such as Japan, Europe, etc. Every episode has him pop into a new town, sometimes in a new country, and start to learn about a concept. The concepts can be broad, they can be specific, but throughout it all the kid only has the view he gained from the media he has watched, often leaving him with a slanted and incorrect view of the topic. So he dedicated himself to learn about it while in town, interacts with locals, and tries to evade arrest. Along his travels, he makes friends, enemies, some stick around, some don’t, but throughout it all he never stops trying to better himself and make up for lost time

    “The Heromakers”
    They’re not the ones who slay the dragon; they’re the ones who help the heroes look good doing it. Mom and Dad are former adventurers (he’s a retired gallant knight and she’s a powerful sorceress) and their twin kids are a skilled metalsmith and enchantress. Meanwhile, the youngest child is … a lawyer. But will the kid who specializes in law save the day after magic swords and magic apples fail to help the family’s newest client, a deposed prince, regain his throne?

    An artist gets a job offering in Japan to do art for an upcoming game, so he learns Japanese, sells/gives away most of his stuff and moves to Japan for the job of his dreams.
    However, the pandemic hits and the studio is forced to shut down. The artist is stuck while the country shuts down, and lives off of his remaining money. After months in the pandemic and going broke, he gets a job as a Reaper.
    Reapers are like lesser versions of the Grim Reaper; they go and escort the souls of the dead and dying to the afterlife. The Grim Reaper can’t be everywhere at once, so he has Reapers do parts of his job all around the world. Reapers also get contracts to kill various undead: Ghosts, certain undead Yokai, Jiangshi, etc., since the dead are supposed to stay dead.
    I’d post art to go with this pitch but I haven’t drawn anything for it.

      You fricked up. Why would a ruling corporation spend a dime on the penniless plebs. If they rule, why the welfare that directly hurts them? If the government can mandate this shit, they could likewise seek equality.

      No, the big thing here is that the corporations that pull this (and there would be multiple) have CONVINCED people that it's actually them in the digital afterlife. That it's not a clone or a copy or "likeness". They've managed to fool idiots right back into religion and slaving away to pay their tithe.

      You also kinda glossed over the massive fricking consequences of NEVER LOSING OLD PEOPLE. The movie stars never die and continue acting forever. Wealthy CEO execs NEVER give away their money because they're still around in digital form to go influence the world. You've got powerful dicks with social norms from three centuries ago funding congress. Frick, what does the political party look like when most the elected officials are digital and officially dead?

      Unless this is all some ruse and the dead can't actually interact with the living anymore? In which case it's a massive ruse and the "digital afterlife" is just about as real as the judeo-christian myth. "Trust us, he's in the server and very happy. No you can't ask him how he's doing or any personally identifying information".

      Uhhh your one good idea was already done by a relatively recent live action TV Show.(which is written & executed like garbage mind you, but still shares your idea). In the TV Show it feels like a gay sandbox RP chatroom rather than a serious adventure afterlife. There's a murder mystery plot, but it happens in the background, in the first and last episodes... kinda like most cartoon shows nowadays.
      It felt more like a one-episode idea than a full show to me. I can't remember the show's name. Go ask Cinemaphile about this idea if you want to see what writing pitfalls to avoid.

        I know of it. I made sure to look into the idea before developing it lol. My idea goes in completely different directions. Outside of the concept of a 'digital afterlife' our stories would share nothing in common. Besides that show did not invent the concept, it doesn't own the rights to the idea and no, I will never claim I invented the idea of a 'digital afterlife'. Just because something has been done before, doesn't mean you can't use the idea again and take it into a new direction! I will also not make it badly written :^)

Pretty much just dark humo with some over the topic comic violecne and coom bait.

      And it'll only take you one guess which one of those pays spit.

      I got one. A bunch of annoying frickers do some shit cause some other dildo did something and now shits just all fricked.

      People are tired of current events.

      Recently I have been thinking about a webcomic idea that could maybe work as a cartoon.
      It's about some college aged amateur game devs. I would want it to be sort of a cross between CoolGames inc. and Nirvana the Band the Show with maybe some Mission Hill. The characters have some grand game idea that they have been working on since they were kids. To fund their dream project, they throw together a bunch of cheapo indie games that just chase whatever trend is popular that week.
      Most episode's first act would be them pitching increasingly terrible ideas and monetization strategizes back and forth. However, I am not really sure how things would typically play out after that. What would make the game dev process funny for tv? Maybe their college could have a weekly GameJam and there could be some other dev teams they could interact and compete with? Maybe they don't do any coding ever and just do shitty promotional schemes for their games that don't exist? It's a pretty half baked pitch at the moment but I have been using it to practice writing character interactions and natural dialog.

      Potential, but I don't think you've put in any effort into it, so there's really nothing here. The show could be a means of conveying "how to start/run a business" ala a bunch of grunge slackers hilariously failing to get shit done.

      >What would make the game dev process funny for tv?
      The arc of "lofty goals, practical work, soul-crushing grind, and abandoning the original goal for better ones"
      Heart and soul being poured into a thing that gets ignored vs a 2 hour shit-commit that actually gets them some fame.
      The coder being the only one with any actual value. The others just kind of hovering around being "idea men" or "promoters". In the end, the coder's going to have to decide to grow up and get a real job and ditching the losers.
      Losing the whole game dev because some stoner tripped over a cable.
      Getting an intern. Abusing said intern. Learning that abusing an intern will in fact land you in jail.
      The IRS and the definition of "business expense".
      Show up to beg for a loan in grunge-wear and being laughed out of the banker's office.
      Learning how to bullshit buzzwords to get a loan for an utterly shit idea.

        You missed one

        Premise: The Veil: A space fantasy setting. Worlds are connected by portals but travel can be done by slower, more reliavle ship travel(think 17th century ships built like wooden submarines and rockets). Portals are considered dangerous because they can be tampered with, and only portals found in cities, with dedicated staff on both sides keeping them from being sabotaged are regularly used. Why?

        Two planet-spanning empires are constantly fighting with each other. They are so set on beating each other, people bet on who will commit more war crimes a day than the other.

        Sabotage portals, bombard cities, and annex or burn entire cities to find a single human.

        Earth-humans are another dimension entirely, so the rules of the veil don't apply to them. Magic rolls off of them with next to no effect, can tank insane amounts of damage, and bring down Magi-mechs with their bare hands. But they can be killed by suffocation, burning(with nonmagic fire), or crushed(the heavy object has to be pressed into them. If thrown, the object just shatters ln contact with a human.).

        One human learned this early on and has used this to forcibly unit the roving pirate fleets and raider tribes into a single force that is actually threatening both empires, and the veil as a whole.

Alongside his partner Bella Copter, & their pet Bloop "The Dog", work for Galactic Gophers, a freelancer courier business. One day on an ordinary job, they discover a crate that contains a busted up old guardian sphinx that Rev names Franky. Franky is the key to uncovering a great treasure, but his memory is as fragmented as his jokes are lousy. So the gang hops from planet to planet, looking for clues, finding work, getting into trouble and staying one step ahead of space pirate Captain Abyss.

At night, however, the bright colors of the day begin to fade to shades of greys and black. The happy-go-lucky masks of the cartoon stars slip off for the night as they let off steam by partaking in the many vices that tempt them during work hours or complaining about working woes such as that one kid in test audience who just wouldn't shut up. It's a pretty good deal for them, up until a human voice actor is found murdered in the studio. The toons take it upon themselves investigate to find out who killer is.

    A teenage girl with an edgy and rebellious attitude towards her pushy religious family joins a ton of demonic cults just to stick it to them. She regularly performs black magic rituals she learned online to dedicate her flesh to whatever demon names she could find on the internet. This becomes a routine for her to try and push her family away.

    After a few years of this, she's hit by a car and dies. By some strange luck, one of her rituals actually happened to work. Two, actually. Out of the hundreds she had done over the years, by sheer coincidence, her comedically corny black magic rituals actually landed her into contracts with two separate demons with comedically conflicting personalities. One very prideful and talented, the other incompetent and lackadaisical. Having dedicated her body to them, these two members of Satan's dark army attempt to possess the same teenaged girl's dead body just after her passing.

    On a mission to subvert humanity and destroy it from the inside to bolster the ranks of Hell, the demons have to struggle with the two of them marionetting the same body at the same time, trying to remain a convincing teenage girl to thwart suspicion while murdering criminals and otherwise evil people whose souls are most likely to be sent downward. More conflict arises when the teenage girl's personality begins creeping its way back and further interfering with her possessors' plans.

    In my head it's kind of a mix between Weekend at Bernie's, CatDog, Jennifer's Body and some kind of anti-hero capeshit. Reading all that over again, the premise sounds a little on the darker and serious side but I imagine it more like a dark comedy overall.

    Something along the lines of Digimon/Kaijoudo where a group of kids find a magical parallel world and befriend evolving monsters. The main kid would have have a shitty home life and would throw himself into learning how to evolve his monster partner to their maximum potential and saving the monster world. He would just come off as your typical hardworking shonen protagonist at first, but later arcs would explore how his obsession has become a coping mechanism. Despite great personal loss, his single mindedness is what ends up saving both worlds at the end.

One day as he is walking home, he finds his neighbor (whom he hates) dead drunk on the lawn. Impulsively, he decides to steal his keys and wallet and hide it from him. It is at this point that he discovers he in fact has superpowers, and that they are directly tied to his committing crime.
    With his new powers, the man can finally clean up the city like he's always wanted, but he has to commit crimes himself to keep them active. He un-retires to keep the police off his back, and adopts a double identity for his heroic deeds; as he begins taking on bigger and bigger baddies, he adopts a triple identity as a supervillain to cover his crimes.
    Slowly, as both his heroic and criminal reputations rise, the criminals of the city beseech his villain persona for protection, and he struggles to balance his criminal enterprise with his hero duties. The matter complicates further as he is put in charge of investigating himself at the police station.
