Japanese murder mom vigilante with a haunted sword.

>>149456459 (OP)
For me its Japanese murder schoolgirl with a haunted katana.

>>149456513
Both are good.
Both need to have their fertile tummies exposed

>>149456897
>Another dimensional crossover?
>Yes.
>Great. At least it gets me out of dealing with this freak who keeps following me around saying he wants to lick the blood of my enemies out of my bellybutton. You ever deal with anything like that?
>Something similar.
>Let me guess, a horrifying alien monstrosity that lays eggs in your guts?
>It's not an alien.

>>149456459 (OP)
Built for _me

>>149457677
You can't replace her late husband.

>>149458115
Not trying to replace him, just sex her.

>>149458874
Understandable.

>>149458874
You'll never be as impressive in bed either.

here to bump your thread Katanabros

>>149461473
They should redesign Betsy to a cheesecake fantasy aesthetic to match Kwannon's sexy ninja.

>>149456459 (OP)
>>149456513
How mega haunted are we talking here? because that blade is 600 years old.

>>149462775
It's never really stated but we've joked before that Tatsu is leading cause of souls being added to the sword.

>>149462092
Betsy's 80s costume was pretty sexy

>>149457038
Haha

>>149463694
Which one? She had 4 costumes in the 80s, IIRC, Captain Britain, the pink one, the armor with the cloak, and Lady Mandarin.

>>149464509
The Pink one.

>>149464602
Not a fan personally, has too many design elements I dislike. Armor or Lady Mandarin (even though is basically a Stryfe recolor) for me.

>>149464672
Lady Mandarin isn't a bad look. Here's a concept version

>>149463420
>The Soultaker would claim maybe 3 or 4 souls in a year, if that, before Tatsu. Even going through droughts before getting unsheathed.
>After Tatsu......well, let's say it was all you can eat.

>>149464777
That's pretty neat.

>>149465153
>Doesn't the curse compel wielders to madness and violence?
>She's not mad, she's just mad about crime.
>Got it, we're ignoring the implications.

>>149459915
Maseo can stay Number 1, I'll just be the best Number 2 sex she'll ever had

>>149457677
Tatsu is built for hugs! HUGS!

>>149465853
>I'LL KILL YOU!
>I have a perfectly good explanation for taking photos of you!
>No you don't, Booster!
>One of the drink companies I advertise is looking for a heroine to lead a campaign for its new line of women-focused drinks so I took some shots for ad mockups that I can pitch to you!
>I'M IN MY BRA!
>Your current costume is an open jacket and a bra.
>No, I wear an inner sarashi for support that I cover with an outer sarashi.
>You wear a bra to cover your bra?

>>149467883
>C'moooon! Think of the possibilities!
>Like what?! My face plastered everywhere?
>No! Your face will be plastered and you'll get paid for it!
>Enough.
>Heck, you'll have a spiffy catchphrase! "Cut your thirst!" Or how about "Slice the heat!"?
>I'm grabbing my sword.
>I have a force field.
>Do you have any shame?
>15% of my "shame" bought me a new condo on the west coast.

>>149468582
>It's in San Bernadino.
>Shut up, Ted.

>>149462775
>sword so haunted it has its own dimension to keep all the souls

>>149468788
Can probably get into a lot of trouble there

>>149469578
Tatsu has to deal with terminally ill people who start committing crimes so they can commit suicide by Katana so they can guarantee an afterlife.

>>149456459 (OP)
>katana means japanese sword

>>149464602
got an image?

>>149470211
Or people who know their crimes are so terrible they prefer the Soultaker realm to hell.

>>149470781

>>149470725
>Why did you go under?
>I'm an undercover cop.

>>149470923
I don't think it's common knowledge.

>>149456459 (OP)
Absolute Katana should 100% be Tatsu’s spirit haunting her own sword and puppeting her corpse around, IMO.
>Regular Tatsu is depicted in her mid thirties at the absolute oldest
>Absolute Tatsu has been wandering Japan since the Muromachi period (14th-16th centuries)
>Regular Tatsu was an Olympic level martial artist before getting Soultaker
>Absolute Tatsu was Maseo’s humble wife, with little if any form of training beyond childish dreams of becoming like Tomoe Gozen, but literal centuries of combat as a revenant have forged her into an swordsmaster only rivalled by other immortals
>Regular Tatsu has a cold, blunt demeanour, forged from tragedy
>Absolute Tatsu has been divorced from regular human emotion for so obscenely long that she’s almost completely forgotten how to person, only how to fight

>>149471229
Love me some Alan Davis art

>>149456513
>>149456459 (OP)
Well I'll be damned I like both

>>149471591
The knowledge of the Soultaker seems common enough, albeit for most the claim of it being cursed is probably regarded the same as claims of hauntings in the real world. The less common knowledge is knowing she has it.

>>149471456
Haha classic

>>149472055
>I WILL CUT OFF HIS HEAD AND I WILL PUT ON YOUR PIANO

>>149471656
That's actually pretty awesome concept

>>149456513
Why do I get the feeling this concept would sell really well?
>schoolgirl vigilante
>boyfriend's soul trapped in sword

>>149462092
I don't know what their plan is with Betsy anymore, they just paired her with Rachel, gave her the Captain Britain moniker, and called it a day. I think she's not even with any of the X-Men teams running around either

>>149473343
Wish they do an Excalibur book with a writer that cares about the UK/European Marvel characters.

>>149473305
Sounds like Sukeban Deka but with a ghost/horror twist

>>149474983
Shame that Tinier Tatsu who has such appealing design was wasted on Isekai genre show. Putting her in her own series full with supernatural crisis, murder mystery and yokai would've been a 10/10 better show that I would definitely watch this series for her.

>>149456513
>>149475525
Something about the design makes me diamonds, I think it's super hot.

>>149475525
What a waste that show was

>>149475571
For me, it's the combination of the small cape, choker, sarashi and low rise, flimsy-looking pants.

>>149477301
Snap Tatsu's choker?

>>149477788
No, she must keep it the whole way through.

>>149478315
>when you're trying shibari to spice up things with your ghost bf but you have to do it yourself

>>149478537
And he may not even be able to see it.

>>149479078
Look, she's also doing it for herself, okay?

>>149474983
She needs a haunted Yo-Yo

>>149479251
>haunted Yo-Yo
That sounds hilarious yet sick

>>149479251
Or, at least, mildly enchanted.

>>149479580
>>149479251
Sukeban Deka except it's a gaiden series where Saki is compelled to solve crimes using a yo-yo that serves as a medium for ghosts. The caveat is the information supplied by the ghosts is restricted to their subjective knowledge and might be incomplete, incorrect, or an outright deception.

>>149479823
I'd read it

>>149479196
>that awkward phone call to Looker asking her to come over and bring bolt cutters

Think Tatsu owns a dildo?

>>149483191
the hilt of her sword

>>149482494
Cute

>>149482494
>look up the artist
>it leads to a dead twitter account

>>149485293
Dravot is pretty active on /co/.

>>149473965
>a writer that cares about the UK/European Marvel characters
unfortunately that seems to be a rarity nowadays, at least the Ultimate Universe has Captain Britain in a non-insignificant role, and the leading theory is that Scarlet Witch in this world is actually Betsy Braddock

>>149485632
I'd say a bigger issue is finding a writer who cares about the UK Marvel characters in their own right rather than as quaternary side characters for the X-Men.

>>149483191
her hand does wonders

>>149474983
Apart from the supernatural stuff, she has to deal with school gang leaders who believe that if they get rid of Tatsu, Takeo will pay attention to them instead

>>149487022
Tinier Tatsu’s Axana could come from there

>>149487022
>Say your prayers, Tatsu Toro, once we kill you Takeo will be ours!
>It's Yamashiro, I was married for about 2 hours! And no one has seen Takeo since he killed his family, plus that's not how obsessions work! Killing me isn't going to make him like you.
>Don't try to trick us to save your life!
>There are 4 of you, how is that going to work? Take turns being his girlfriend for the day? Each of you is secretly planning to kill the others, so come back once it's over and I'll duel the winner on the school rooftop. Until then I've got math class.

>>149487263
>only one of them is attracted to Takeo, two of them want Tatsu out so he can focus on the gang. The other one is actually horny for Tatsu

>>149485764
That too is a problem

>>149485208
They're probably planning to meddle

>>149488327
I better offer some amount of ryo for their heads, then.

>>149473305
Her Kitsune is an actual Kitsune.

>>149488907
>So, uh, Cat-ana, what's your life like?
>My head is worth 10 ryo and FEUDAL JAPAN! You?
>I think the Chinese mob is offering 3 million yen for my corpse, but I haven't checked in awhile.

>>149488907
>10, 10 ryo for their heads!

>>149485293
many such cases

>>149456513
Better design

>>149491889
I think it only works on the very slim, very short body type.

>>149492804
Works for me, and then some!

>>149493985
Tinier Tatsu deserves to find love!

>>149494078
I really like the idea that magic in Tinier Tatsu's universe is really corruptive and double-edged so that even if she could find a way to bring Maseo back to life it's a bad idea no matter how it works out.

>>149494323
That sword reeeeally wants Tatsu to keep on slashing.

>>149488327

>>149494665
Is she a girl dead inside with nothing to lose or is she enthralled by a cursed sword that is slowly devouring her soul as it wields her to sate its endless hunger for bloodshed? Has the added bonus of implying the question of whether Takeo was genuinely evil or driven mad by the magic of the sword.

>>149494710
Maybe the original idea about the blade giving a boost only to those who are evil could be expanded: if you're a good person, the sword is gonna try to fuck with you until you get killed and hopefully ends up in the hands of someone worse. So tinier Tatsu has a bastard sword she cannot let go because her lover is trapped inside.

Tempting tummy slut

>>149494946
You might be better off playing Tinier Soultaker more ambiguously than mainline Soultaker, whose operation is fairly well-known.

>>149495326
Of course tinier soultaker is also charging up with souls to be able to open a portal to Hell, that's basic.

So Halo-onibi is tinier Tatsu sidekick. I was thinking about Windfall too, who already has a horrifying fate in the main universe. Her name could be Junpu, it preserves both the "wind" and "favourable thing" connotations

>>149495405
>We have to do something about Tatsu, the sword is messing with her mind! She's started talking to it constantly!
>She's always done that.
>She's cradling it like a lover!
>She's always done that.
>Used it as a sex toy!
>First time walking in on her unannounced, huh?

>>149495405
Tinier Tatsu's Soultaker sounds like the sword from Onimusha

>>149456459 (OP)
She needs her pussy murdered. With cock.

>>149495587
We came up with some supporting cast OCs to prevent making copies of characters and relationships. In addition to Onibi:

>Juni Hirabayashi
The first step to finding the wannabe gangster that killed her husband and in-laws was finding someone with a connection to crime, and Tatsu looked no further than well-known violent delinquent and rumored Yakuza hanger-on, Juni. Tracking her down, Tatsu was surprised to find herself being thrown headfirst through a window and even further surprised to find that Juni was a deeply withdrawn and disaffected girl with nothing to do with crime. Despite their confrontation, Juni agreed to teach Tatsu how to fight and continues to help by serving as backup muscle and chauffeuring the vigilante around on her motorcycle.

>Yamiyo Fujimori
A young girl who can be found hanging around crime scenes, Tatsu wasn't sure what to make of her when she realized she kept seeing the same girl over and over again until one day she heard a knock on her door and found Yamiyo standing in front of her. A self-described "crime otaku," Yamiyo had deduced Tatsu's identity through careful recording of her appearances to establish an area of operation and hundreds of hours of pouring through public and not so public records to find someone who matched Tatsu's general appearance and had a motivation to be a vigilante. Pledging herself to Tatsu's aid, her obsessive nature, encyclopedic knowledge of criminology and law, and willingness to violate all sorts of social norms and decorum has proven beneficial time and again to Tatsu's crusade. And also leaving her wondering if Yamiyo isn't going to be a problem that needs a violent solution in the future.

>Master-san
Nickname for the owner and proprietor of the rundown izakaya underneath Tatsu's single room apartment and also her landlord. Rough mannered, curt, and unpleasant, Tatsu occasionally helps out at his bar for quick cash and he looks the other way regarding anything strange involving her.
