    Accompanied by brothers-in-arms, Uzumaki Naruto's path leads to Konoha, to conflict, to confronting not only the shadows of history but also the depths of sorrow, the instinct for survival, and an arduous quest for meaning.

    Summary

    Despite many differences, Zania Liying ended up leaving Miyagi Do after the death of her sister. The Sekai Taikai was something she trained for vigorously. Except she wasn't doing it with her friends, her ex-boyfriend Robby or even her Sensei's whom she loved wholeheartedly. She promised her big sister she would win-whatever it takes-she would win.

    In Cobra Kai however, a skilled fighter Kwon kept looking at her. If that wasn't vexing enough-the Sensei of the Iron Dragons is fascinated by this girl's skills infuriatingly so.

    Summary

    Palpatine's Galactic Empire ruled the galaxy with an iron fist for over twenty years.
    Brute force alone would not have been enough to achieve this without a dictatorial ideology and a state-sanctioned racism that placed humans above all other species in the universe.
    The Commission for the Preservation of the New Order, known as COMPNOR, is the main architect of this totalitarian policy.

    Young Alsh Nexhrn, newly graduated from Coruscant's law school, is about to discover just how easy it can be for an ordinary man to fall into darkness.

    Because that is the nature of man and the seeds of the blooming of evil lie within him.

    Summary

    L'Empire Galactique de Palpatine a tenu la galaxie d'une main de fer pendant plus de vingt ans. La force brute n'aurait pas suffi à le faire sans une idéologie dictatoriale, un racisme d'Etat qui place les humains au sommet de toutes les espèces de l'univers.
    Le Comité pour la Préservation de l'Ordre Nouveau, dit COMPORN, est le principal organisateur de cette politique totalitaire. Le jeune Alsh Nexhrn, tout juste diplomé de l'école de droit de Coruscant, va découvrir à quel point il peut être facile pour un être ordinaire de basculer dans les ténèbres.

     

    Car l'Homme est ainsi fait, et les graines de l’Éclosion du Mal sont en lui.

    Summary

    Two best friends and long-time fans of Naruto die in a car crash together. Sounds like the opening to a bad joke or every isekai story ever written, right? Whether some freak-of-nature accident or the will of a higher being, we had to survive. But we could do more than that.

    Our Five Step Plan to uproot a private special operations organization focused on three objectives: preserving or bettering life, ending the life of one particular individual, and our own survival.

    Of course, even the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry, and ours was… Well, we did our best.
