Everyone Who Loses to Me, Go Farm!

[Confirmed on 2025.6.6] [Blurb revised on 10.3]

After being reborn, Asahi Ren finds that all his teammates and his school have changed.

Feeling that he has arrived in the inner world, Asahi Ren decides to stay away from Tokyo. Half a month before he is due to start school at Aoba Johsai, he suddenly receives a letter.

Since you've decided to go to school in Miyagi, why not visit your grandfather's farm while you're there? Love, Mom.

What? My grandfather, who died ages ago, had a farm?

Following the address, Asahi Ren finds the farm. Looking at the little house nestled in the forest, not run-down at all, he looks pleased.

"It looks pretty nice. It's small, but cozy."

Lewis smiles and takes out a map.

An estate even bigger than the town comes into view.

Asahi Ren: ??

Wait a second... this is Grandpa's fiefdom?!

The freshly minted farmer looks at the vast farmland before him, practically a whole animal kingdom, and lets out a pained wail.

"Aaaah!"

How am I supposed to farm all this land by myself?!

Fine, time to find myself some labor.

First, join the volleyball club, then... The farmer breaks into a wicked grin.

Anyone who loses to me has to come work the fields!

He lounges in his recliner, calling out through a megaphone.

"Anyone who wants to learn how to serve or play a match with me can earn the chance by working the fields, okay?"

"It's just farming!"

Hinata swings his hoe excitedly. Once I finish this patch, Asahi-kun will teach me that super cool serve!

Kageyama furiously waters the crops beside him. He wants to learn that powerful jump serve, too!

They glance at each other and silently pick up the pace, shouting in their hearts: We're absolutely not going to let him leave us behind!

"Farming will make us stronger?!"

Bokuto Kotaro thinks for a moment, then takes Asahi Ren's hands while Akaashi Keiji looks on in horror.

"No problem! Give me the biggest plot! Hey, hey, hey! I'm going to be the strongest ace!"

Don't trick the gullible!! The owls all cry out together.

The farming roster keeps growing...

Years later, on a show interviewing the Monster Generation, everyone shares the thing they remember most vividly.

They all lost to someone and got dragged off to work the fields under the excuse that it would make them stronger.

Host: ?

How did you all say the exact same thing...

Host: Is that player still competing professionally?

Atsumu's face instantly twists with anger. He looks at the camera and shouts:

"Damn you, Asahi Ren! Get back here and play volleyball!"

I can definitely beat you now!

Asahi Ren, relaxing and sipping tea on his perfect farm, switches off the TV.

Hehe~

A few tips

The protagonist is overpowered, and Aoba Johsai will win the championship.

The farm is as big as every type of farm combined! (There's no way one person could work it all.)

It's not pixel art, nor is it a fourth-player game.

The farm starts off super poor, with nothing at all, and everyone builds it together! So there'll be more Stardew Valley-style story than in "The Farmer," but everyone will understand it, trust me.

Theme: Farming and volleyball are a perfect match
