kaitou1. The sports manga.
This will be a wildly popular sports manga starring a JHS or HS teacher who comes in only to discover that they are suddenly coaching the sport that their predecessor coached, despite any lack of talent in it. (Inspired by the fact that my current JTE is now coaching Table Tennis club when she's actually very good at basketball)
In supporting roles will be the kid who's fantastic and snotty about it, rude to the other club members and scornful of the coach. But the coach will bring them around somehow and instead of hurting their chances of success, teach them the true meaning of sportsmanship. Also the Green Kid, who's even worse than the coach, never touched the sport in their life, but so dang earnest. This kid will invariably be slashed with the fantastic kid.
Then just when the whole team is working together well and a championship is shaping up....a new teacher will arrive. This will be the rival who is actually good at the sport, and threatens to take away the team from the teacher who has come to love and appreciate said sport.
It would be the biggest hit ever, really.
2. The educational shojou manga
This would be a manga about HS life in America. It would be actually true to America and not have some of the weirdness shown in manga like Hanakimi. Herione will probably be in the marching band.
Best would be if the manga were written in simple english with translations on the sides, like the kodansha translated manga, only this one would actually be in English to begin with.
3. Shakespeare's Complete Works as cool comic books.
Yeah, really not gonna happen. Dangit.
