Baseball:No Diamond For The Forgotten

In a forgotten corner of Japan, where weeds cover the baseball field and the school gave up on sports long ago, one boy refuses to let go of his dream. Thirteen-year-old Haruto Saito is a baseball prodigy born in the wrong place. Gifted as both pitcher and batter, his talent burns bright—but in a rural middle school with no team, no coach, and no one who believes, it’s like screaming into the void. Except… one person still listens. Sōta Nakamura, his quiet best friend, would rather read math books than swing a bat. But when Haruto asks, he picks up a catcher’s mitt—not out of love for the game, but for the friendship they share. Together, they form a club from scratch: no equipment, no strategy, just raw heart and late-night dreams. As they gather misfit teammates and find unexpected support in their stern math teacher—once a forgotten player himself—the boys discover that baseball isn’t just about winning championships. It’s about building something where nothing existed before. It’s about scraped knees, quiet encouragements, shared bentos, and the girl who stitches their uniforms by hand. But the road to glory isn’t smooth. Injuries, failures, heartbreaks—and the haunting knowledge that talent might not be enough—test every ounce of their resolve. Because no one expects legends to be born in countryside classrooms. Will their dream reach Koshien—or will they remain the team no one remembers? A story of friendship, failure, and the field that held their youth. ⚾ The dirt may forget their footprints… but the sky never will.

Destined for the mad King

For thousands of years, the rulers of the world were those born with innate magical abilities. Those who could command water or fire reigned supreme atop the food chain. In a world divided into three; the Water Tribe, the Fire Tribe, and those without abilities. The last were scarcely fit to be called a tribe at all. For generations uncounted, the unarmed had bowed in service to the powerful. No one foresaw the rise of the Mad King, who unearthed the source of all magic, shattered it, and brought an end to the age of cultivation, ushering the nameless into power. Suddenly, possessing magic became a mark of shame. Survival became the only law. "Diana, listen to Mother," the woman said urgently. "Now that we must hide, marrying the Mad King is our only path. Your brother’s skills grow stronger; the entire clan will endure. We will rise again to take revenge and save you." She spoke to her daughter, a girl born without a shred of innate power; once the clan's greatest shame, now its only hope of salvation. "Mother, the Mad King has already taken ten wives," Diana said, her voice trembling. "None survived longer than seven days. Will my brothers and the clan rise to seek revenge the very next day after my wedding?" She frowned, bitter and heartbroken How could she not understand that marrying the Mad King meant certain death? Unfortunately, no matter how unwilling she was, for the survival of her entire clan, she was destined to marry the Mad King.
