Stan, a newly awakened Black-tier Ascender in the alternate nation of the United States of Columbia, has spent five years obsessing over Sable, the wealthy centaur girl next door. He has studied centaur biology, social customs, and family secrets to the point of mania. His plan is simple: awaken a body modification ability, climb the ranks, and become someone Sable would choose. Instead, he awakens Loot Drop—the ability to infuse defeated enemies with essence and transform them into items. It's a legendary utility ability, but it's not the power he wanted. To use it, he must sacrifice the very essence he needs to advance, forcing him to choose between progression and profit.

David Drinkwater lived his entire career as football's biggest joke. Thirty seven years old, rejected by every major club, and called a "club whore" by fans across Europe, but at Wembley Stadium, in the rain, he finally proved them wrong. Championship playoff final between Millwall and Norwich, and in the 90th minute, he scored the winning goal, then he died. **[Ding. Ding.]** **「Host found: David Drinkwater.」** **「Synchronisation complete.」** He opens his eyes in an eighteen year old body. Demien Walter, a failed Fiorentina academy prospect and suicide attempt survivor with an overall rating of 48, no team, and no future, but David brought something impossible with him. **[Ding.]** **「Ultimate Gacha System activated.」** **「Mission: Rise from nothing. Become the greatest footballer in history.」** Training earns points while matches earn rewards, and achievements unlock legendary packs. Every pack opening could change everything, whether through common stat boosts, rare techniques, or epic abilities, yet there's always the ultimate prize. **[Ding.]** **「Diamond Pack opened.」** **「Congratulations. Andrea Pirlo — Regista Vision obtained. Passing +15. Vision +10. Legendary Trait unlocked: Deep-Lying Playmaker.」** From trialist to conquering the football world, every pack, every point, and every impossible moment building toward football immortality. They called him a failure once, and they called him wasted potential, but now, with forty years of wisdom in an eighteen year old body and a system that rewards every drop of sweat with power, David will rewrite football history. One pack at a time. **Some dreams get a second chance, and some legends get a second life, so this is his.**

いつも一人で (Itsumo hitori de - Always Alone) Series Description RATED: MA18+ | 14 Episodes | Supernatural Tragedy In a Tokyo drowning beneath endless rain, two souls exist in parallel hells separated by death itself. Seishin Hōrō-sha dies at fifteen—broken, abandoned, worthless. A truck crushes him on rain-slicked streets after years of bullying, family betrayal, and abuse. Death brings no peace. Ancient folklore condemns him: souls without purpose cannot ascend. Trapped as a wandering spirit, invisible and voiceless, Seishin watches his mother die, his siblings—Daiki, Hana, Kaito, Yukimira, Mei-Suke, Rikunuke, Sorana—scatter into crime and forgetting. None mourn him. The promises they made as children mean nothing now. For two years he drifts, purposeless, fading. Then he sees Ritchi Utsu. Five years old. Wealthy. Suffering behind closed doors in ways that mirror Seishin's own hell. "Independence training" that's systematic torture. Parents demanding perfection, punishing with cruelty. A life of isolation and psychological destruction masked by privilege. Seishin recognizes himself. Feels purpose for the first time since death. For ten years he watches, unable to intervene as Ritchi endures beatings, assault, suicide attempts. A ghost bearing witness to suffering he cannot prevent—until rain changes everything. During storms, barriers thin. Seishin manifests briefly, leaving messages in fog, reaching Ritchi for seconds that prove he's not alone. Their connection deepens. Seishin becomes the invisible guardian, the one constant. But spirits fade. His time is ending. The final year brings violence and desperate choices. Ritchi must survive without his ghost. During one last storm, Ritchi sees Seishin's face, remembers the teenager who walked into traffic ten years ago, recognizes their intertwined fates. Their goodbye transcends death itself. - "The rain remembers everything we try to forget."

This man began as a completely unremarkable defensive midfielder. Then, by chance, he learned a bit about organizing play... then a bit about carrying the ball forward... and then free kicks too. And just like that, the football world got lively. Kaká and Cristiano Ronaldo loved playing with him—handsome, eloquent, and most importantly, the guy who covered their backs so they could focus on attacking up front. Messi had a love-hate relationship with him. Every time he played against Barcelona, he got fired up—and somehow always dragged Messi into playing brotherly football. All number 8s loved playing alongside him—his coverage was everywhere, his pressure resistance was second to none. He was the ultimate shield in front of center-backs, the perfect partner to midfielders, and the strongest wall behind the forwards. Xabi Alonso was his mentor, Mourinho his boss, and Pogba? Just his junior. Whenever a reporter asked him how he got so good, he'd always reply: “Train like hell. Give it everything you’ve got!” Thank you for the support, friends.

Years later, when he would finally hold the “Lifetime Achievement Award” in his hands, Makoto would recall one very specific afternoon—the afternoon he was sent flying ten whole meters… By Kitasan Black. At the time, he had only recently gotten his Central Trainer’s license. Unfortunately, his lack of experience was obvious, and many Umamusume turned him down without a second thought. And so, after being rejected yet again, maybe his mind wandered a bit too much. While waiting to cross at a red light, he spotted a child nearly step into oncoming traffic. His body moved before his brain could catch up. The kid was fine. He was not. Because he got hit. Not by a car, but by an Umamusume. She had black hair, red eyes, and a matching black tail. And she slammed into him at full sprint. Thanks to years of quiet self-training—secretly guided by memories from a past life—he managed to twist midair and land without too much damage. Still, getting launched like that wasn’t exactly part of his daily routine. The Umamusume, on the other hand, was completely panicking. “I-I’m so sorry! Are you hurt?! A-are you okay?!” “I-I'm Kitasan Black! A first-year at Tracen Academy! Pleased to meet you—wait, no, that’s not what I should say right now!” “I—I mean—I’ll take responsibility! I’ll take full responsibility for this!!” That’s how it all began. The girl’s name was Kitasan Black. And this was the start of everything. = = = = Note: Some character backgrounds and settings have been reworked for narrative purposes. This version expands the Umamusume world while staying faithful to the spirit of the original. Non-Umamusume fan can read it as a mix of sports drama and school life.
