Summary
If someone had asked Isagi all those years ago where he saw himself in ten or twenty years, he would have said on the Japanese National Football Team, winning the World Cup.
Isagi wonders, as he observes the crowd, cheers and jeers melding into a single discordant note, if his younger self could have even imagined something like this.

Summary
Saying that Kunugigaoka Junior High School was a weird place would be an understatement. One could cite the presence of a class of delinquents separated from the main campus by being placed upon a mountain. They could also argue that the strangely high number of people from the Ministry of Defence coming and going from the school was unnerving. Some even claimed to see a strange yellow octopus-like creature flying around near the school.
But, what about the school's most well known rumour?
That there was a ghost haunting the prestigious school posing as a student.
They say that every so often a graduating class would come to the realisation that one of their classmates, who they had vivid memories of, had never existed in the first place.
Or;
Karma died on the school grounds long before the Assassination Classroom was established and just happened to be doing his usual thing (posing as a student to prank a random class and avoid the boring and painful reality of being a ghost) when he was roped into the odd classroom. Join his concerned ordinary classmates and his more over-the-top supernatural classmates as they try to piece together the mystery that is Akabane Karma.

Who would have thought a dead Karma would be so fun? Also, characterization? Chef's kiss

Summary
Ren lets himself fall apart for a bit, thoughts crashing and rising inside his head like raging waves. There would be no next weekend for them, he realizes — not for this Akechi and him, at least. Maybe Ren wouldn’t have a next week at all, considering he was already running on borrowed time and desperation.
He found the wrong Akechi again. He knows this. Even if his Akechi forgot everything about himself, even if he changed his identity on purpose, Ren has this feeling he could just discern the truth no matter what. He stares at this lump of joy next to him, lovely despite the furrowed brows and occasional groans, and he can tell: this is not his detective prince.(Ren walks through universes to return a leather glove, while the world he knows won’t stop crumbling all around him.)

Death might be obsessed with them in this, but it has nothing on my obsession. I want to eat this it's so fucking good.

Summary
From the moment he’d come into his own as a Persona user, Goro Akechi had meticulously planned out every single aspect of his life, down to the most minute detail. He’d maintained upstanding grades, poured a ridiculous amount of time and energy into his detective work, and obeyed orders without question - curating a perfect public image, all in service of his ultimate revenge. It had all gone flawlessly for many years, and he was making excellent progress on his current task to boot. Identifying and dismantling those damned Phantom Thieves would be a cinch, especially since the boy he highly suspects of being their leader seems to have taken a liking to him.
Everything was just so perfect. If only fate didn’t have other plans.
