Open Playtest Q4 2024!
The Definitive Anime Table Top Role-Playing Experience!


Beach Episode is a powerful system designed to bring an anime flair to your Table Top Role-Playing experience. The Beach Episode system will let you bring your favorite anime or manga to life, or tell your high-powered spiky-haired adventure. Within the core rulebook, you will find rules to run any setting from futuristic Science Fiction to modern Urban Adventure, to classic High Fantasy sword and sorcery!
Beach Episode focuses first and foremost on customizability and player choice. Each player will have the option to choose three to four of the core fifteen classes, each of which has unique and complementary options giving millions of combinations to create exactly the kind of character you want to play. This combined with our Action and Modifier system allows you to even customize your attacks, allowing you to make your very own super moves and devastating spells. 

This emphasis on choice and customizability does not end with the players. The powerful Episode Generator combined with the G.A.M.E. Monster creation system allows the person running the game, called the Director, to quickly and easily create whatever they need to flush out their grand adventure. 

Gameplay is efficient and streamlined, with social interactions being clearly divided from lethal combat, while still allowing for quirky anime hijinks. Combat itself is fast-paced and easy to follow with each round being divided by a Power Up Scene so everyone can get into their totally not final form, or do their magic girl transformation.
