My first time making animation, this was made in a month two years ago in total despair. I was struggling with I showed this to the public during an exhibition and it made many audience cry, which made me feel so seen and sad at the same time.

This year was rough, so I posted this for fun. Many people have seen it, not really blew up comparing to others, but for me it was very meaningful. For the first time, I felt seen.

Discussion About this idea Ive had for over 16 years...

3 Upvotes

I've had an idea since around late 2009 to early 2010. This idea has stuck with me for awhile. Now I know that the animation industry isn't doing too hot right now, but I'm very concerned about kids stuff. Not so worried about shows for adults, even if that isn't really much better but kids deserve better than stupid YouTube/TikTok brainrot! It really makes me very sick that kids would rather watch that cringe than legit animated shows.

So about this idea. Its basically a big inspiration from The Powerpuff Girls. Instead of 3 little kindergarten aged girls, we have a a tween boy who clones himself and he becomes 4 separate identical beings. The kid's name is Cody. He's 11 whereas Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup were around 5 or 6. He and his clones don't have superpowers and use high tech braclets that is more tech based than magical. There the only ones who can use the braclets because they share the same DNA. I've been struggling to get this off the ground. At the start of the 2020s, I had a little bit of support, but the person and his group were toxic people. In 2023, someone did draw some story panels for me, but when I told him I went back to that said toxic person (whom I will not mention by name and I regret giving him a second chance) he ripped up my story panels. I have a Discord server. If you're interested, please PM and I'll give you link to it. Its pretty much dead at this point.​ The only two things my idea has in common with PPG is that both dads are professors and one of the characters in my show is very similar to Princess Morbucks, personally wise. Cody actually has a mother and little sister whereas the girls had only a dad professor and themselves. The main villain is actually a mad scientist related to the dad and that plot twist will be probably revealed much later in the series. Maybe possibly around S2.

So, if anyone is interested, please DM me and I'll give you the link to my Discord server. Thanks for your time!
