THE PERFECT RELEASE

KOGURE
Tetsuo Kawaguchi was once a promising young basketball player, but a tragic past left him emotionally numb, unable to feel joy, pain, or even the passion he once had for the game. After passing the entrance exams, he enrolls in Toshigawa Academy, indifferent to the world around him. However, when he picks up a basketball again during a gym session, something within him stirs—a feeling he thought was long gone. Through encounters with like-minded persons who share his love for the sport and the persistent encouragement of his little sister, Tetsuo finds himself drawn back to the game. Reluctantly, he joins the school’s basketball team—not just to play, but to confront the ghosts of his past. As he pushes himself on the court, Tetsuo begins to unravel the emotional barriers he built around himself. But healing isn’t easy, and the shadows of his trauma threaten to pull him back into the void. With every game, every struggle, and every connection he forms, he inches closer to rediscovering what it means to truly feel again.

Lord Of Beasts

Ethan Crowe walked out of prison after seven years with nothing to his name and nowhere to belong. The world he returned to was unrecognisable. Gates had torn open across the globe, monsters roamed beyond human control, and society now revolved around the Titled - people chosen by mysterious voices and granted supernatural powers that made them heroes, weapons, and rulers all at once. Ethan wasn’t one of them. Not at first. Lost, angry, and with no future worth chasing, Ethan was barely surviving when a voice finally spoke to him. "Your Title is… Lord Of Beasts." But something about his awakening was wrong. Instead of gaining power in the real world like every other Titled, Ethan awakened a System tied to the Tower Of Beasts - a brutal, game-like world he can only enter while asleep. Inside the Tower, Ethan must fight for survival against monstrous creatures, earning power through a system of skills, evolution, and beasts. As for the beasts he acquires there? They persist beyond his dreams... Registered as an E Rank Titled with only D Rank potential, Ethan should have been insignificant. Yet the Lord of Beasts cannot be measured by ordinary standards. As Ethan grows stronger at an impossible rate, his existence begins to ripple outward - drawing the attention of elite Titled, criminal syndicates, and forces lurking behind the Gates themselves. His past refuses to stay buried, his beasts grow more dangerous, and the truth behind his Title hints at something far more terrifying than anyone realises. In a world ruled by power, Ethan Crowe starts at the bottom. But as the Lord of Beasts, it’s only a matter of time before he climbs to the top! P.S.
