Ueki no Housoku

Teacher Kobayashi grants Kosuke Ueki an apparently modest ability: turning rubbish into trees. The gift enters him in a tournament fought by students representing candidates to become the next god of the Celestial World, with a freely chosen talent awaiting the winning contestant.

Ueki encounters increasingly unusual powers and rules that can strip fighters of their own talents when they misuse their abilities. Supported by friends and challenged by opponents with conflicting ambitions, he relies on ingenuity and his determination to protect others rather than allow the prize to fall into dangerous hands.
