Okay, here's the summary of my Christian-based manga idea.
This is the first of several manga ideas I keep storage in my archives.
The idea takes place in a alternate world similar to ours. The geographical map of the world shows a Pangea-like landmass that looks like it’s splitting apart. Right now, the world is in a state of a cold war between the main nations, all having both moderate factions who seek peaceful coexistence and extremist factions who believe strongly that their nations’ ideals are the way of the future. Most of the story takes place in one of the main nations, Christendom. It’s an enlightened monarchy which Christianity is the primary religion though it does allow people to practice other religions and ideologies. Out of the main nations, Christendom has a lot of “mysterious activities” happening in its lands. To counter these “activities” the Vatican and Christendom’s government have created in secrecy multiple teams of warrior-agents to deal with these activities, essentially “quarantining” their influence from the rest of the world.
The story begins with the birth of an infant who was left on the doorstep of a random home. The child was taken in by the couple who lived there and named him Ribbon. After twelve years, Ribbon is a member of the warrior-agent team known as Prodigy, whose members are young gifted-children who were orphaned and brought into special training. Within the group, Ribbon has been an enigma among his fellow teammates, and often mistaken for a girl due to his very feminine appearance.
As the world struggles to bring a peaceful end to the cold war, dark forces are at work among mankind, reminiscent of The Book of Revelation... or maybe something else. Clues and hints are being found within Christendom’s holy archives, revealing the possibility that the phenomena happening could be connected to Prodigy and its missions. Whose handing out these missions? And why Prodigy of all the other groups?
As Prodigy’s young warriors carry out its missions, Ribbon slowly begins to uncover more about himself, such as his origin, his nature, his true name, and that his entire existence could spell the end of the world.
And he’s fine with that... |

The first half of the manga idea would be focusing around the Cold War with some action in it, though later in the other half will be more focus on the supernatural. |

Heh. Cold War + supernatural stuff. That sounds like an interesting combination. _________________

And the Anti-Christ whose so evil he even rebels against his own father. |

An Anti-Anti-Christ, only even worse than intended. _________________

Or maybe the son of the devil who wants to be the Anti-Christ in his own way. |

I don't think he should be consider an Anti-Anti-Christ. He's fine with being the harbinger of doom; it's just that his intentions for the world run in opposition against Satan's. |
