Bliss Stage: Love Is My Weapon

This group is intended to help people interested in playing Bliss Stage find each other. I hope to use it to help fans of the game connect wherever they may be.

If you are in the Minneapolis area, I am always looking for people interested in trying the game!

What's it all about?

In a world where everyone over 18 lies locked in the unbreakable sleep known as Bliss, Earth’s children fight a fantastic war against the Nightmares – enemies who have invaded our very dreams. In that war, our only hope is the ANIMa – a weapon powered by human passions that allows us to face the Nightmares on their own terms.

Bliss Stage is a unique role playing game of Young Adult Science Fiction that takes "mecha RPGs" in a completely new direction, emphasizing the emotional and psychological terrain of the genre's darker works such as Neon Genesis Evangelion, Bokurano, and Gundam 00. In Bliss Stage, the weapons you use to fight are literally formed from the strength and intimacy of your emotional relationships, and damage to your mecha will inevitably be reflected in emotional fallout with the people you love.

This game deals with war, violence, sex, and kids. It deals (although probably off-screen) with kids who have sex. It deals (probably on-screen) with kids who do terrible things to survive. It deals with one adult who - whether they want to be or not - is in a position of leadership for these kids. And possibly the last waking adult on Earth. It's got plenty of mature themes, and demands players who will treat them with respect.

It's also a whole hell of a lot of fun, and will really reward those who love good YA fiction, the best of anime and manga, or just good stories.
