Story Writer – Anime, Manga & Superhero Worlds

In-Office Bengaluru, Karnataka

About the Role :

As a Story Writer for our anime, manga and superhero slate, you will be responsible for conceptualising and fleshing out original, binge-worthy short-form stories set in worlds you already think in natively.

You will take ideas from a one-line concept to a full series bible and scripts, ensuring stories are emotionally gripping and fast-paced with adrenaline rush in each beat.

Key Responsibilities :

- Develop original, high-concept anime/manga and superhero story ideas

- Flesh out concepts into world rules, power systems, character arcs and episode beats.

- Write or supervise scripts with strong hooks, reveals and cliffhangers.

- Review, develop and refine scripts for AI microdrama and animated shows.

- Translate stories into visual briefs (character sheets, scene descriptions, shot-level prompts) for AI directors

- Identify trending themes, tropes, and formats across anime, manga, webtoons and the MCU that drive engagement and retention.

- Monitor audience performance metrics (retention, completion rate, engagement) and iterate stories based on data.

- Maintain consistency in tone, lore, and storytelling style across episodes and seasons.





- Manage multiple projects under tight production timelines.

What We're Looking For :

- Deep, native immersion in anime/manga and/or Marvel/MCU — you write and think in these worlds, not about them.

- Strong sense of pacing, hooks, and cliffhangers.

- Excellent writing skills, with natural, punchy dialogues

- Ability to create emotionally engaging, high-retention content.

- Experience working with quick turnaround production cycles.

- Willingness to live in Bengaluru and work from our office full-time.

- Hands-on exposure to AI production tools is a strong plus.

- Visualisation skills (sketching, storyboarding, mood boards, or AI image/video tools) are a big plus.

How to Apply :

- Submit your CV/profile along with a 300–500 word written story concept that you think you can develop if selected for this role, set in an anime/manga or superhero-style world.

- Your concept should cover the world, the lead character, the central conflict, and the hook that would keep viewers coming back.

- Applications without the written submission will not be considered.

- Submitted story can be in Enlish or Hindi - command over both languages is expected.
