i assume kakarot's going to be your main character and as such will be (with the consent of others) a little overpowered, but his abilities will have to be reduced if he's to conform to these rules and the lore, because yeah, kakarot is definitely a lore breaker.

about your chapter i have to disagree with zixis though, i don't see anything wrong with transplanting ideas and names for your chapter from other franchises (i too am a fan of anime). the galaxy is colossul and filled with god knows how many different peoples, cultures and languages, and having a chapter with names that don't resemble regular marines' names is completely fine - there already are canon chapters that deviate massively from regular marines, in terms of names, chapter organisation and combat doctrine. but in terms of abilities the sayian knights really should abide by what marines are actually capable of in 40k.

while talik and los (and others) have put obvious work into their factions, they seem to me to be very similar to any other respective faction, which isn't a bad thing (it's what i would do), but there's plenty of room in 40k for differences: whether it's based as closely as possible to 40k lore, a completely original faction, or simply transplanted ideas and names. as long as the basic lore of 40k is adhered to (which is what we're trying to do with this thread) then everything's fine.
