A Few Warnings for the Reader: This short novel is written for people who appreciate Japanese anime – a worldwide community numbering in the hundreds of millions. It's important to understand from the start that anime is not just "children's cartoons," as animation is often perceived in places like Europe and the USA. Anime represents a distinct form of animation and a significant cultural force, almost like "super-cinema." It can be incredibly dynamic and explore serious themes. Now, let's be honest, a large portion of anime is… not great. Maybe around 90% could be considered simply "okay" or even, let's say, "trashy." It can be blatant, silly, and not particularly engaging. Many viewers watch one of these less impressive shows and then assume all anime is similar. But that's a mistake! Understand this: by doing that, you're missing out on potentially the most captivating entertainment of your life. That's not an exaggeration – it's a genuine perspective. But the remaining 10%? That's where the true "super-cinema" lies. Good anime is unmatched in its ability to tell emotionally resonant stories and deliver dynamic action. Anime creators are free to push boundaries. Their imaginations delve into the complexities of the human heart, challenging the common "European view" that restricts animation to children. This story(it's not a Fanfiction!) is a tribute to a classic anime called "Fate." Fate is not my personal absolute favorite – there are masterpieces which incredibly hard to surpass. But still, it's a powerful example of the story started as a simple eroge and converted to a deeply emotional cult film.

During the Sengoku period, one of the most brutal times in Japanese history, Takayama Ukon, a young and devout Christian samurai, found himself forced to serve under Oda Nobunaga, a man despised by Ukon's father, Soemon. This allegiance, born out of the necessity for survival amid the constant conflicts, would lead Ukon down a path where, over the years, he would find himself against those he once served and helped, while standing alongside those he had killed and helped to kill—men who shared his faith. As Ukon's purpose and cause were redefined, he came to understand the path he must follow. He realized that his survival had become a weapon in the fight for the survival of those who sought his death and those who sought his help. If necessary, there would be war, blood, and tears. But despite all the darkness, there would also be light. Thus, the Pillar of the Japanese Cross was born, and from this birth would emerge another pillar—Amakusa Shiro, a young man who, while understanding that he needed death for life, also understood that he needed life for death. Later, he would lead a revolt that shone, not in the world's victories, but in the most victorious defeats ever seen.
