Minimalism Stories

"The Last Echo" is an epic tale that explores themes of sacrifice, legacy, and the ultimate choice between preserving one's own memory or saving a nascent universe. The story follows Kaelen, the last archivist of the Aethel civilization, as he grapples with an impossible decision in a dying universe. When he discovers a bridge to a new, infant universe threatened by a parasitic entity called the Weaver, he must choose between imprinting his civilization's legacy on this new reality or sacrificing everything to give it a chance to flourish on its own terms. The narrative is structured in four parts plus an epilogue: • Part 1: The Fading Light - Introduction to Kaelen and the dying universe • Part 2: The Bridge of Worlds - Discovery of the new universe and the Weaver • Part 3: The Weaver's Web - The moral struggle and decision to act • Part 4: The Last Echo - The ultimate sacrifice • Epilogue - The legacy that endures The story blends hard science fiction concepts with philosophical depth, exploring what it means to be remembered, the nature of selfless sacrifice, and the profound beauty of choosing to save others at the cost of one's own existence. I hope you enjoy this journey through the cosmos!

"Unpleasant Employees"-those who casually hurl complaints and sarcasm-became difficult to approach for task requests. As a result, they quietly avoided shared responsibilities, while agreeable employees-the ones easy to ask-found collective duties piling onto their shoulders. This structural imbalance was discovered to be a major drag on operational efficiency. Soon, the unpleasantness and "cunningness" of such employees were quantified into measurable indices. When those values exceeded a defined threshold, intervention was triggered. Enter the Mediator-an intermediary unfazed by complaints or sarcasm-tasked with stepping in and compelling Unpleasant Employees to carry out their share of responsibilities. Thus began a new corporate system where personality itself became subject to management. The author of this work is GOTOU Humihiko(https://gthmhk.gitlab.io/gthmhk/isnmg.html).

"My Lovely Perrito" is a small poetry collection about a dog and the quiet love he brings into a human life. The texts follow him from his first days as a puppy, through the years of growing and living beside his family, to the moment he leaves the world with calm acceptance. Each piece shows a different part of what dogs are: their nature, their loyalty, their differences, and the simple joy they carry. The cycle treats a dog not as a symbol, but as a real companion who stays close, waits, listens, and gives love without asking for anything in return. This is a short, honest look at a life shared with a dog. A life made warmer by his presence, and remembered long after he is gone.

After the Anti-Discrimination Act on Physical Appearance came into force, all media featuring attractive protagonists-whether in anime, drama, or idol culture-were reclassified as "Hentai works," a form of prohibited adult content. For the generation that had grown up before the ban, these Hentai works became an object of nostalgia and obsession. But producing real Hentai idols was now a criminal act, leaving the entertainment industry dependent on AI-generated virtual idols to meet what remained of public demand. Then, whispers began to spread-rumors of an underground network where people could meet and interact with real idols, hidden behind the façade of legality.
