Writers note: Not all clichés are bad ones, and so far Director-sama is clearly helping us show off what Sakura-san can do!
I'm curious though, are we getting an hour long starting episode that we can cut into two arcs, or are we sticking with a thirty minute run time? Cause if the latter is the case... I would recomend some serious cuts to make room for... well, the rest of the plot.
I would like to have about ten minutes a scene per friend, if at all possible.
Also, with the sick childhood friend, what are we thinking here? Magical or non-magical illness?
Regardless, I am very excited to join up with this team.

This second one sounds hilarious. Elves fashion magical weapons by growing them out of trees, Dwarves and their mountain based magic.

I still want to change the names of the Good and Evil factions/powers in the anime, but I'll hold onto most of our fate points for now.
Edit: Hm, just noticed that the setting is "Light" as in Slice-of-Life light.
Any way to change that to Shounen, younger audience level light?
Edit 2: Wait, I think I got it.
[X] Change "a period of peace following the prophesied arrival of a Hero meant to defeat the evil Lord of Darkness" to "a period of piece about to come to an end due to tensions rising between good and evil. The prophesized arrival of a Hero meant to defeat the Lord of Demons is also slowly coming up...."
Not boring, unoriginal. Like, harems as a trope is super overdone, but it can still be entertaining. Yeah, if the writers listened solely to the director it would be unsurprising garbage, but sometimes falling into a cliché is just plain fun.

And here we go again, with more alterations made. Seriously! My award-winning work was supposed to be average to the extreme and you make these changes...Meh. Fine! -Shadenight123
Intro
The World of Gaia has been for countless centuries under attack by the vile demonic beings of the Underworld. They, blessed by the powers of the Dark, have continuously attacked, harmed and annoyed the pure citizens of the many races that belong to the powers of the Light. The frail Dwarves, who are blessed with an understanding of nature due to their birth from the very earth, and who live in mighty oaks within the forest. The stocky and short-tempered Elves with their bulky frames and strong arms, crafted from the stones of the mountain and born to craft the greatest of blades and armors from the mightiest of forges, without once allowing them to be marred by the hands of the Dark.
The Humans, the most adaptive of races, has always been on the forefront of this war between light and dark, between the pure and good goddess Hikari and the evil goddess Yami. Most often than not, humans are found on both sides of the conflict.
Sakura Sato, a young boy, was born into a period of peace about to come to an end due to tensions rising between good and evil. The prophesied arrival of a Hero meant to defeat the Lord of Demons is also slowly coming up, and finally banish the Goddess Yami from the world of Gaia. He is a Hunter capable with traps, son of villagers, and his village, formed near a riverbank, has seen a great increase in trade in the recent years leading it to develop a budding and ever-growing economy. It's a place rife with merchants and stalls, people filled with money and inns for the would-be travelers and adventurers, with a nice cobblestone path that snakes through it and a dainty-looking brick chapel-like structure that preaches to the good goddess Hikari.
There are plans to build a large stone building that will serve as the first of many storehouses, as well as a fully blown market.
It is a happy, everyday serenity that glows through the streets and eases the hearts of the villagers.
Not that Sakura Sato could know that, since he's currently busy stalking his prey through the undergrowth of the forest. He's already collected his herbs and the wood for the day, so now all that's left is the meat.
His ears are perked up, his expression filled with concentration. He knows that if he wants to eat, or sell his game, he must ensure the beast runs exactly where he wants it to run. Straight into his trap. Go straight into my trap. The whisper is barely registered by the audience, but it comes from Sakura's own mouth. He tenses, the deer lifts its head, and finally the game is on and he runs.
He runs for the prey.
The prey runs in turn. Hastily avoiding the brambles, the patches where the wooden roots are thicker and the thorny bushes, the deer is straight in front of his vision. It's a matter of seconds, and then there's a sordid thunk, and the deer doesn'tfalls down, straight onto a pile of jagged rocks hidden by a bundle of rope and a grass-colored cape of sorts. What happens is that an arrow plants itself into the creature's neck just as it stumbles into the pit. Sakura grits his teeth as he understands what is about to happen.
He was supposed to bring a part of the prey home to his little sister, Himari Sato. It was just the two of them most of the time, his parents busy working in the fields. So his little sister took care of cooking the game he brought back after selling most of it off.
However this might be in jeopardy due to the figure that emerges from the woods.
Wearing a short green miniskirt, a bright green sleeveless shirt which shows off a lot of her porcelain skin that seemed to glow under the rays of the sun, a beautiful arrogant smirk and a pointy green hat, the figure of his childhood friend turned rival was a sore sight for his eyes. Her name was Niko, and her flaming red hair shone like vivid flames of fire. There was triumph in her voice. "Oi, stupid-Sakura!" she cheerfully said, "I hit it first!"
"But I was leading it to my trap!" Sakura replies, "That deer's clearly mine!"
"Want to go to the guards? They'd probably have us split it anyway," Niko smoothly says, the teasing smile on her face a definite proof that she had done it on purpose. Sakura's teeth grit. It was common of Niko to act like that. She always stalked her claim on his preys often, and usually ended up making him do all of the skinning and curing of the meat. She'd pay him with further parts of the deer he had hunted, until in the end she'd walk away with her dinner for the day and nothing more.
It was harmless teasing.
It also was quite annoying all the same.
"Right, right, I, the most merciful Lady Niko will allow you to take care of skinning the whole thing for me too, and once you're done just cut me a thick juicy slice all right? This way it's cheaper than going to the market," she grinned as she said that, nodding as she sat atop a high pile of rocks.
With quick, merciless work Sakura finished the job, and after handing over what he needed to, he proceeded to start hauling the rest. Niko snickered throughout their return to civilization.

[Idea] Dire Boars would be nice to see. We have to show off our hero's combat skills in a safe enviroment, afterall!
That, or the power of Oppai.
Wait, are we making a rom-com or a Shonen combat anime? These notes seem a bit contradictory sometimes. If the latter is the case, I'll need to rework 80% of my notes!!!!! All of my research will be for not!

What happens is that an arrow plants itself into the creature's neck just as it stumbles into the pit. Sakura grits his teeth as he understands what is about to happen.
He was supposed to bring a part of the prey home to his older sister, Himari Sato. It was just the two of them most of the time, his parents busy working in the fields. So his older sister took care of cooking the game he brought back after selling most of it off, taking care of the house, humming a pleasant tune while sharpening the knives and the cleavers and generally doing all sorts of things that made her the very best big sister in the world...in her humble opinion. He didn't know any better, since he didn't have another big sister to compare the two.
However this might be in jeopardy due to the figure that emerges from the woods.
Wearing a short green miniskirt, a bright green sleeveless shirt which shows off a lot of her porcelain skin that seemed to glow under the rays of the sun, a beautiful arrogant smirk and a pointy green hat, the figure of his childhood friend turned rival was a sore sight for his eyes.

With quick, merciless work Sakura finished the job, and after handing over what he needed to, he proceeded to start hauling the rest. Niko snickered throughout their return to civilization.
His older sister was waiting for him, after all. She wasn't pleased if he came home late. Even a minute late was bound for some tear-filled eyes and sniffles of agony as if he had plunged a hot poker into her chest. Unfortunately, the smell of blood attracted something it shouldn't have attracted.
It's a wolf, only it's not just any wolf. It's a very large wolf. There are spikes emerging from its back, his eyes glimmer with intelligence, and while it's clear that he was attracted to the blood of the game, he's not interested in the burlap sack filled with meat. No, he's interested in the two Huntsmen. He's a devourer of human flesh after all. He's a creature of Evil. He is...
A Dire Wolf.
"A Dire Wolf!" Niko exclaims in shock, her bow already in hand and an arrow nocked and ready. "They aren't supposed to be here! It's too close to the city!"
"What do we do? What do we do now?" Sakura asks, his hand letting go of the burlap sack since there's no need to slow oneself down when it's a life or death situation. He has a small knife meant for skinning prey, but definitely not for fighting Dire Wolves.
The battle, thus, begins.
