BH6 no longer updating

Hello everyone,

I’m sure most of you already guessed this, but I’m officially letting you know that BH6 AU Ideas will no longer be updating. Unfortunately I have lost motivation to run this blog, and the fandom is quiet enough now that I most likely won’t be getting it back any time soon. I still love Big Hero 6, and I still love this blog so much, but it’s not fair to you guys to leave you hanging, not knowing what’s happening.

Just to clarify, while we will no longer be updating, I am not going to delete BH6 AU Ideas. I love it too much, and I still hope that it might serve as inspiration for writers in the future. So you can come back here any time and search through the posts as much as you like. There will just not be any new posts in the future.

To those who submitted asks or ideas that never got published, I’m sorry. We do still have some messages in the inbox, and someday I may go back and answer them, if inspiration strikes me, but I’m sorry I didn’t answer them before. There were some great ideas that unfortunately just came too late.

Finally, I just want to say thank you so much to all of our followers, to everyone who submitted AUs and comments, to everyone who contributed to BH6 AU Ideas. Thank you to my co-mod, who stepped in when I was completely overwhelmed and made sure I could keep this blog going a little bit longer. Thank you to everyone in the BH6 fandom. This blog started out as just a little spot to keep all of the ideas that I wanted to keep track of in case I wanted to write them, but it was all of you that turned it into something truly special. I will always look back on this blog and my time running it fondly, and I hope all of you will too.

That’s all for now, guys. I hope you were satisfied with your care.

A post-apocalyptic AU from the movie "9" where the only living things left after the destruction are Baymax, Megabot, Little Yama + other botfighting robots, and the microbots. What sort of story can be written around these robot characters?

Oh man that could be really sad. Because unless whatever killed off humanity also gave the microbots and the botfighting bots the ability to move without human intervention, Baymax is going to be one very lonely robot.

He’d probably feel so lost. His entire purpose was to take care of humans and make them feel better, but now there are no humans and he’s lost his purpose. Maybe he starts focusing his attention on the botfighting bots, making them his new ‘patients’ because he has nothing else. Megabot in particular he pays close attention to because he knows that Hiro was very proud of the little bot and Baymax wants to make sure Hiro would be pleased with him. The only issue is that Baymax is only programmed to fix humans. He doesn’t know a thing about robots. But he’s gonna try anyways.

I guess Megabot would essentially become Baymax’s Wilson, like in Castaway.

But, hopefully, there are still animals around, and Baymax eventually figures out he can take care of them too. He’ll eventually find a purpose again. But he’ll still take good care of Megabot for Hiro. So Hiro can be proud.

Other random comic from today. Hiro, you gotta think these things through… don’t give your big bro a heart attack.

Man, tho, there’s so many things I’d like to draw for this AU, plot-related or not, but I never feel like I have the skill level or patience for it. ;u;

[sebatticus]

Cause I’m both BH6 Trash and Voltron Trash :D

I wonder what it would be like for Pidge to meet Baymax. She would prolly be so fascinated with him, and Hiro would have no problem bragging about him. While two Dads stand watch auugh. Shiro would be impressed for sure <3

I can’t with these guys.

Paladin Hero: Purple Lion- Hiro Hamada

[bh6-au-ideas]

For the next 24 hours all crime is legal...Purge AU

I know this is supposed to be like a horror AU, except I’m pretty sure all that would happen is the team gathering up their stuff and having a sleepover at Fred’s place. Anyone who tries to attack the house is taken out by a combination of Fred with a paintball gun, Honey Lemon’s chemballs, and Heathcliff with the hose. Heathcliff is the most feared defense system in San Fransokyo.

Alternatively, all crime is legal which means vigilantism is legal. The team suits up and ends up running around all night stopping people from getting hurt and preventing property damage. San Fransokyo basically gives up on participating in the Purge after a few years of the team essentially making it impossible to do anything on Purge Night. Everyone just treats it as a night to stay in and veg, and only the young delinquents who are cocky enough to think they can outsmart Big Hero 6 dare try anything. They all learn pretty quickly though that no one messes with the city while the team is on duty.

And then, when the night is over, and order has reasserted itself, they all head home to Aunt Cass who has a massive warm breakfast waiting for them to help them regain their strength. It’s a good tradition.

Baymax + a Stormtrooper = Baymax Trooper, easily one of the cutest soldiers in the Galactic Empire. This geektastic mashup cosplay is the work of Benito Garcia of Wetworks SFX Studios. He’ll be showing debuting it at O Comic Con, which takes place in Council Bluffs, IA from July 8th - 10th, 2016.

Big Hero 6 X Voltron. Instead of 5 paladins there were six and instead of Voltron they form Baymax XD :p

Oh my god, but do they keep their colours? Because that would be HILARIOUS. Wasabi squished into this little green lion while tiny GoGo has this huge hulking yellow lion to herself. And then I think that means Honey Lemon gets the speedy one? Fred’s pretty much the only one that still makes sense. And then is it Hiro AND Tadashi piloting the black lion? Or both?

Hmmmm what about GoGo in the red lion, Wasabi in the yellow, Honey Lemon in the green, and Fred in the blue. And originally Tadashi was the pilot of the black lion, but he got kidnapped by the Galra and now Hiro took his place and they’re trying to find him.

Also, Aunt Cass as Coran and Abigail as Princess Allura plz. Because Abigail knows all about cryosleep :P

[bh6-au-ideas]

An AU where we think Hiro and the gang are the main heroes, but are actually decoy protagonists. The real heroes/main protagonists turn out to be Baymax & Megabot.

I would actually love to see this as a BH6 short!

Imagine, it starts off with alarms blaring, a montage of the team suiting up and arming themselves, preparing for battle. They all rush into Wasabi’s new armored car (because Baymax can’t carry everyone all the time it’s not practical and Wasabi’s afraid of heights) with GoGo at the wheel of course. The screen on the dashboard is showing the team the situation, there’s a robbery going on downtown, or a robot or something, and they’re all prepared to deal with it. The shot switches to outside the car looking at it head on, and you can see everyone inside with Baymax’s head sticking out of the top. The car peels out of the garage with a squeal of tires and a puff of exhaust that eventually clears to reveal...Baymax is still standing there. What looked like his head poking out of the top of the car was actually him standing behind it.

It turns out that either Baymax himself or his armor is in need of some upgrades or repairs, and so he has to sit this mission out. He’s stuck at home to wait while the team goes off to deal with the mess, and at first he’s just willing to stand there until they get back. But then he gets bored or distracted by a butterfly or something, and he ends up wandering off into the garage.

He stumbles across Megabot sitting on a table somewhere. Hiro was in the process of tinkering with his old battle bot when the call came in, and unfortunately didn’t turn off everything when he rushed out. Through a series of blunders, Baymax accidentally manages to activate Megabot, who runs off, searching for a botfight.

“Oh no” says Baymax.

Thus the short becomes Baymax chasing after Megabot, trying to stop the little robot from getting into trouble and to also get them both back home before Hiro and the others get back and realize they’re gone. Baymax’s quest is hampered however by two things. One, he’s not fast. Megabot is. Two, he’s constantly stopping to help fix whatever damage Megabot has caused, whether it’s bandaging up a kid that Megabot knocked over, or trying to fix a wall that Megabot broke through, whatever.

Also, occasionally it either cuts to the team with their mission, or they happen to be passing by in the background, fighting robots or robbers or whatever

The climax is when Baymax catches up to Megabot, and Megabot has actually found a bot fight. And without Hiro to give him directions, Megabot is losing. But when Baymax steps into the ring to retrieve Megabot, he gets mistaken for another battle bot and the enemy bot attacks. Only to be completely defeated. It tries to hit Baymax and Baymax’s body just bounces back the punch so hard the other bot goes flying out of the ring and smashes against a wall. The bot fighters are so impressed by this mysterious super powerful battle bot, they just let Baymax go without causing any trouble.

Baymax eventually manages to get home and get Megabot back in place just in time for the rest of the team to pull up. They’re all so tired and sweaty that they don’t even notice that Baymax went anywhere. Slowly everyone leaves to head home until it’s just Hiro remaining.

The ending comes when Hiro decides to finish up Megabot, only to discover that somehow?? His battle robot now seems to want to be a nurse robot??? Just like Megabot’s hero Baymax???? BAYMAX WHAT DID YOU DO?!

a big hero 6 and overwatch crossover! a post with all of them finally haha this took me a while 😗

[bh6-au-ideas]

Tadashi is just a college student with a normal life. Until one day, after he saved Hiro who nearly died, Tadashi started to have dreams about a mysterious man. He has several tattoo-like marks on his arms. He wears an eyepatch that covers his left eye. But what makes Tadashi couldn't forget about the man is that he looks just like him. It's like Tadashi is looking at his own reflection. Often, the dreams would turn into nightmares, where the look-alike tried to attack Tadashi a lot.

Either Tadashi is having visions of the future, or he’s been watching too many pirate movies with Fred again.

Oooh, but what if it’s actually a Tadashi from another universe? One where like aliens attacked or it’s a zombie apocalypse or something. And it turns out that this otherverse!Hiro and Tadashi have managed to create some kind of machine that’s supposed to help them escape the awful universe they’re stuck in for somewhere else. But in order to do so, someone from the peaceful universe has to take their place...

So this eyepatch!Tadashi is actually attacking regular!Tadashi in his sleep because that’s how he’ll replace regular!Tadashi. If he ever succeeds in killing regular!Tadashi in his dreams, he can slip into the peaceful BH6 universe, while regular!Tadashi will become trapped in the apocalypse world with no escape. And regular!Hiro will be the next victim...

Can you imagine an AU where Hiro is a triplet or a quadruplet? i am just imagining something similar to hamish, harris, and hubert from Brave especially if they all are geniuses. Tadashi and Cass would be so out of their league or they would get like super good at catching them.  

i saw this Doll someone made of young Hiro and it made me think of this.

Submitted by: @aleclightwoodsprotegee

(Oh god. We have a twins AU with twin!Hiro. We have a double twins AU with twin!Hiro and twin!Tadashi. I’ve even seen a triplet!Tadashi AU. But triplet or quadruplet!Hiro? I’m about to start stress eating.

But what could make this really interesting is how this might change things for Tadashi. Because instead of one little brother giving him a bit of an inferiority complex, he’s got three. I wonder if it might be bad enough to really shake Tadashi as a person.

Like, in the end he’d stay the caring older brother figure who basically helps raise the triplets alongside Aunt Cass (because god knows she can’t handle Hiro all by herself, let alone two more of him), but he doesn’t go to SFIT in this ‘verse. His little brothers are so much smarter than him, how could he ever measure up? Why should he even try?

It would bring a very interesting dynamic to the characters’ relationships. Hiro can sometimes be a little oblivious of other people’s feelings, and maybe he and his brothers don’t notice for years that Tadashi’s basically got no confidence in himself and his smarts because he’s constantly comparing himself to his little genius brothers. And then when the triplets do realize what’s happening, what do they do about it? Do they actually kind of think the same thing, basically going their whole lives hearing Tadashi say that he’s much less intelligent than them? Or do they recognize their big bro’s hidden genius? And if they do recognize it, how do they help Tadashi reach his true potential?

It’s a very interesting thing to think about 

Also, those dolls are adorable

Everything is the same except SFIT is some sort of modeling school and everyone in the Nerd Herd is actually a model. Instead of fighting with high-end weaponry, they defeat their enemies by posing dramatically.

oh my god I almost peed my pants laughing at this

like, picture the movie going pretty much exactly the same. Only instead of convincing Hiro to go to a tech school, Tadashi somehow manages to trick Hiro into attending modelling school. And instead of having to invent the microbots, Hiro has to do a modelling competition. The microbot montage instead becomes the team + Tadashi teaching Hiro how to walk, do his makeup and hair, picking his outfits, etc.

The fire still happens, but instead of dying, Tadashi’s eyebrows get burnt off, and thus he loses his modelling mojo. Everyone is just as devastated as if he’d actually died

And then, when the time comes to defeat Callaghan, I’m just picturing everyone posing dramatically, while Callaghan frantically clutches at his face screaming “OH NO THEY’RE TOO STYLISH AND COOL I’M BEING DEFEATEEEEEED”

And Baymax is still there, of course. Only he’s a modelling robot now, instead of a nurse robot. He looks amazing in a three-piece suit

Amulet AU/Family Amulet AU

Three days later and Cass was still a sobbing mess. She knew that Callaghan didn’t have anything to do with the murder of her sister, brother-in-law and her parents-in-law, but she can’t help but blame him for being the catalyst of their demise.

She couldn’t help but worry about her nephews, she may have recently knew of the wish to protect the brothers, but she couldn’t help but doubt if it would last forever. What if Callaghan’s enemies would would target the brothers and make Callaghan suffer, just like what they did to their parents.

Hiro on the other hand was getting worried for his aunt. She wasn’t in any condition to cater to the café’s costumers, this made the brothers temporary crew for the café, they do need money. He confided this with Tadashi and they both agreed to let Baymax scan her, problem was, Baymax was lost.

(Okay, now all I can see is the bros deciding to kill two birds with one stone; they turn Aunt Cass into a superhero like them to break her out of her funk, and so that she can help them find Baymax. Cue training montage just like in the movie

Pokémon au where Hiro and Tadashi are not trainers but when Tadashi suffers an accident and is in a coma Hiro, who at the time was 10 years old, notices the bills from the hospital piling up and also take notice that pokémon battles/contests make good money, finishes high school at 11 and runs away to take part of both to help with the bills...

oh goodness baby hiro off in the world all alone oh noooo D:

Wait, it’s the Pokemon world. Kids run off and get into deadly battles with killer monsters as their only defense all the time. He’ll be fiiiine :D

But poor Aunt Cass can’t help but worry. She wants to send him off with Mochi at least for protection, the only Pokemon the family still has after she gave up her Pokemon journey years ago to raise the boys after their parents died, but Mochi’s too old to be getting up to such shenanigans anymore. Besides, the Purugly was never much of a battler. He preferred contests.

But thankfully Tadashi was working under Professor Callaghan, the region’s Pokemon Professor, and Aunt Cass is able to call him for help. The day Hiro is ready to start on his Pokemon journey, Abigail - acting as her father’s assistant in Tadashi’s place while he’s in a coma - arrives carrying a single pokeball in a box. It’s not one of the usual starters, she regretfully explains, because Hiro is starting his journey later than most kids do and all of the starters were already chosen. But her father had an interesting Pokemon lying around the lab, and when he heard about Hiro’s circumstances he thought that this Pokemon would be a perfect match.

Curious, Hiro reaches to pick up the pokeball, eager to see who his future starter would be...

do you think it's possible that the Hamadas are targeted in a hit operation? maybe Callaghan killed Hiro's parents and then got Tadashi later. It's pretty odd how none of Hiro's fam besides Aunt Cass seem to be around. And I know that Callaghan wanted Hiro's microbots, but he seemed especially close to Tadashi; maybe thinking the boy would help him invent something useful. A lot of it just seems too coincidental; especially since were given no real reason as to how Mr. and Mrs. Hamada died.

Oooh, that’s all very interesting speculation! It could definitely lead into some really interesting AU ideas. Like Hiro/Tadashi are secretly royals or the sons of some important figure and they’ve been hidden away from their enemies while “Aunt” Cass - actually a trained bodyguard - raises them. Or maybe there’s a prophecy that states one of the Hamada bros will cause some sort of apocalyptic event, and they’re being hunted by some sort of cult as a result. Maybe it’s corporate espionage! All sorts of cool ideas!

Buuuut I somehow doubt this would be canon. Sure, Aunt Cass is the only family member we see in the movie, but that’s not exactly unusual. How often is your extended family around? There could very well be more aunts, uncles, cousins, etc that exist but just don’t visit on a daily basis. Probably some of the people at Tadashi’s funeral were family, it just wasn’t stated outright. And unfortunately, there are a lot of ways that the Hamada parents might have died, many of which could be completely accidental or natural. Car crash seems to be a popular theory in this fandom.

So do I think the Hamada family being the target of a hit operation organized and/or carried out by Callaghan is a cool AU idea? Heck yes! Do I think it’s actually possible in canon?

...nooooot likely.
