story idea nr 2:
This takes place in the setting of Mai Otome, an anime series about magical girls, who get their powers from crystals. These girls are forbidden any sexual contact with men, for the sperm kills the nanobots which allows them to be Otome.

Two brothers, about the same age are out playing in the woods. One of them typically male, broad shouldered, edged face. The other softer and smaller. The smaller boys falls through a hole in the ground into a hidden cave. He stumbles around for a second, stings his hand on something as he tries to get up. He's bleeding a little, but not too bad. Upon inspection he finds a dagger he takes with him.

His brother manages to lift him out of the cave. They inspect the dagger to find out it has grooves running from the hilt, carrying some odd darkred liquid along the onyx blade. A large red crystal knob rested on the other end of the silver hilt.

The boy gets sick as unknown to him, the nanobots that were in the red fluid start to multiply and inhibit his body. About two day's later he gets out of bed again. He studies the dagger some more, and two dark red ruby's seemingly fall out of the crystal knob.

No damage to the knob is found, and the boy takes the ruby's to his brother. The brother laughs and says they resemble the otome jewels. He puts one in his ring, presses the other against the boys ear and speaks the words that issue a contract.
the boy, recognising it and playing along, says, 'Materialise!"

To both their complete amazement a Robe appears and the boy becomes an Otome. And just like every other Otome, female. The boy (now girl) is elated, she's finally feeling at peace with herself.

But when the rob disappears he finds himself to be a boy again. The robe will only stay for a short while after brother gives permision. The boygirl needs training, but the only people that offer training to Otome is Garderobe (the name of the training facilities) and they only train girls. So the boy sets off with his brother in search for a way to become female all the time, to solve the mystery of how a boy became an Otome and to avoid being misused by the many scheming masters, otome, princes and other royalties.

Comments

actually, i was thinking of

actually, i was thinking of having the brother as the super supportive sibling, the role the sister usually takes in these stories.

They really do like each other, they are just totally different. The play acting was mutual, and neither expected it to work. They were both boys after.. well, one of them totally and the other mostly at least :P

hmm

Did new episode of My-Otome 0~S.ifr~ spur muse to work? :P

Anyways, your idea sounds good. The only problem i cna think of is that the boy need to be prepubescent, intersexed and to have female chromosomes. Otherwise he would die when nanobots inject themselves into his system. As males and incompatible females incompatible would die of internal bleeding and organ failure.

Its much better explained here:

and here:

Oh and the "dagger" must be some independent self system. As only Garderobe has technoligy to inject nanobots, and the process isnt as simple as pouring it into open wound (as you could see in Mai Otome 3th episode).

Well good luck with writing. ^_^

Okay, just forget the anime

Okay, just forget the anime Mai-Otome, what really counts is the Manga, with come first, soo...

Yes a Male could be a Otome, no problem, actually Mashiro Blan de Windbloom is guy in original[Manga], and he tranform in lasts chapters with the help of the all otome's, he says:
"All of The Otome's will - all of the Stone's powers are now mine"
I thing he is Refering to the GEM's

soooooo, Mai-Otome is alredy a TG Story * silly giggles *

okay...

If this is going the way of the manga, than i realy cant offer any suggestions :( . As I avoid mangas like the plaque, after what they did to Mai Hime -.-
After looking at the wiki, it seems that Mai Otome is also turned into shonen-harem, oh well.

Also the manga came in August and anime started in October. Plus considering they are quite different from one another. It would be more appropriate to say that its up to the reader/writer to pick what would they consider "canon" for Mai Otome universe :P

hmmmm

" As I avoid mangas like the plaque, after what they did to Mai Hime -.- "

Generally the mangas is 100000% better than anime, it's just some times, they make Anime better than Manga, but rarely * shrug * ^^'

but i don't know about Mai Hime, i din't see the anime...
but i know que Mai Otome Manga is better, Arika is the main character in anime it's say all...
She is soooo ditz, it's only good in fight u.u'

thanks

Thanks, I think, I may give Mai Otome manga a try, once i get the time :P

I REALY recommend to give Mai Hime anime a go. The main characters is Mai (in otome she lives on the island with Mikoto). Also other characters get more focus, especially Shizuru and Natsuki.

Peace ^_^
