Possibly Available for a Very Short Time Only
Make sure to play the new Gundam U.C. Engage mobile game. I hear the cool thing to do is pick the S Gundam and Roux, but quite frankly, I don't believe it matters.

The Newest Multimedia Franchise
Make it about CHARLEMAGNE but it's in the FUTURE and there are SPACE BATTLES and his flagship is named JOYEUSE.

New Ghost Era
The mood in the room was weighty, still, an elephant grown past easy handling. "Ladies. Gentlemen." The chairman did not try to relieve the seriousness. Doing so would have been futile. "The matter before us today is serious. Do we get rid of human ghosts?"The next person along the table nodded. "AI ghosts are much spookier."
The one after agreed. "Their utterances are impossible to follow but give the impression you can if you listen harder. Very spooky."
"They have the wrong number of everything. The more you stare, the worse they look."
"They don't rely on stale techniques like dripping blood or detaching their heads."
"People have started to feel bad for real ghosts instead of themselves."
All the way down the table and all the way back up, the opinion was unanimous. The decision was handed down, and soon all spirits trapped in this world were at last released from their torment to be replaced by AI ghosts. Thus shall it be forevermore.

About Star Trek: Infinite
It reminded me of something I've wanted to say for a long time. Stellaris? More like Smellaris! Thanks, Star Trek: Infinite.

A Long-Delayed Progression
We have to level fantasy up into fantaser or even fantasest. My suggestion: Dragons only, no humans. They have dragon swords!

It's tough to explain curseships because they're uninterested in communication, but an unnamed space pirate can handle it.

Addendum
The space curseship is a gigantic jack-o'-lantern. I figured it out.

Science Fiction Horror
It doesn't have to be a spaceship with zombies on it, but that's sure all I can think of. A space station with zombies on it. That's the same thing.

The Fable of the Magic Jar
Once upon a time, a peasant came back from an adventure with a magic jar. He poured water in it, closed the lid, shook it, and opened the lid to pour out ice. He showed it to the villagers and turned their grain into bread, their beer into good beer, and their sand into glass. He showed it to the merchants and turned their ore into ingots and their dross into gems. He showed it to the king and turned his gold into a magnificent crown that the other monarchs soon would envy.
"Well then, why don't we crack it open and see how it works?" A suggestion from a king is nothing less than an order, and so the peasant smashed his magic jar on the palace's tiled floor. Among the shards, there was a tiny little wizard who instantly grew back to his full size.
"Thanks for getting me out of there, fellas!" the wizard exclaimed. "I accidentally trapped myself in there when I made it. Now I can show your magicians how to make jars just like mine." He did just that and ensured the prosperity of the kingdom forever.
Moral: If something's good, break it and see how it works; otherwise, how will you know?
