Aikido for Cats

The Way of Boss Inu” can be modularised into specific places or zones that lend themselves naturally to toys, playsets, and LEGO sets. The story’s chapter/scene breakdown provides a rich variety of settings and “mini-worlds” ideal for modular play and collectibility.

 

Examples that translate well into toy/LEGO locations:

 

The Garden/Dojo: Main base set, dojo training, cherry blossom trees, Sensei’s house, Quiet Inu & Brother Inu characters. (Martial arts mats, props)

 

The Crow Parliament: Rooftop, crows, secret meeting places, atmospheric landscapes (multi-level playset or buildable rooftop)

 

The Village of Cats: Modular cat village with distinct homes, temples, and tribute altars (mini-figures of cats, shrines, token offerings)

 

The Docks/Yokohama Port: Cranes, warehouses, ships, animal crates—vehicle and transport set, adventure elements

 

The Council of Whiskers: Elite animal parliament chamber—figures, accessories, “meeting” table

 

Broken Garden/Bamboo Grove/Plum Garden: Nature settings, peaceful and battle scenes, attachable modular landscape elements

 

Ashford Castle & Irish Friary: Linked European playsets, cross-continent bridges for story expansion

 

Why it’s modular and toy-friendly:

 

The story is segmented into distinct chapters/locations—each can be built as a standalone set or linked together.

 

Animal character variety—each set can feature unique animal heroes, villains, mentors, and accessories.

 

Adventure and teamwork themes—encourage “mix and match” play; kids can create teams, solve missions, or “train” in the dojo.

 

Hidden objects, secret meetings, and multi-level play—works well for features like trapdoors, rooftop access, collectible “parliament tokens,” etc.

 

LEGO Compatibility:

 

Each major location/chapter (dojo, port, cat village, parliament, castle, bamboo grove) can work as mixable, stackable modules—not only for building worlds but for imaginative and narrative play.

 

Secondary locations (temple, garden, council chamber) support expansion packs and add-on micro-figures.

 

Conclusion:

Your storyverse structure is ready-made for modular toy and LEGO products—with each narrative location, group, or “mission” offering opportunities for themed sets, collectable characters, and marketable play patterns.
