Young Mango attends the local school on Gelato Island π π (Patreon)

Happy Thursday, everyone! Hope you've had an amazing week so far β€οΈ As for me, I'm keeping myself busy as usual (aka keeping myself sane! XD)
Besides making Bun Hunting 3, we're developing Mango Comics along the way as well!
Here are some updates on the plan and the story arc!
Mango of the Wind will span three big arcs. I'm treating it like a movie trilogy! XD
Each arc will have Mango facing challenges that will make him grow into something bigger than he ever thought possible!
We'll follow Mango from his first arrival on Gelato Island as a young dragon, and watch him grow into the himbo dragon we're familiar with.
The first arc will focus on the theme of Identity.
Mango will question himself, finding who he is and what's his purpose in this world: To be the dragon that makes people smile!
But first, he must attend school like the other kids! And maybe, try not to let everyone know he's a mystical creature that fell from the sky!
Of course, our boy Mango fails to hide his identity from day one!
But why hide when you're a dragon?!
Big Bro Smoothie comes to the rescue by disguising himself as a classmate who's so overly proud of his new li'l bro that people can clearly see they're brothers, alright XD
The island is so corrupt that the only school they have is actually a temple for monks (mostly monkeys) and those who want to rehab from drugs or quit smoking.
The Komodo Mayor, who claims he's the real dragon (booo), hates Mango so muchβuntil he gets an idea to turn this li'l dragon into his freak circus act as the island's mascot to generate income!
It's not just Mango who has to adapt to his new life. In the first arc, Papa Yogurt has also drowned in his past and can't move on. He doesn't work or do any jobs, leaving everything to our poor Smoothie, who gains income from fishing while raising his new li'l bro Mango alone.
Thus, our li'l dragon's big-hearted adventures BEGIN!
Next: I'll plan all the episodes/chapters for this young Mango arc.
When I did those 12 episode summaries for the TV animation pitching, it helped me a lot to see the whole picture, rather than randomly drawing chapter by chapter and seeing there's no end in sight. So, I'm applying that method here as well.
Stay tuned to the next update!
HUGS YOU ALL! β€οΈ
