As of now, Uta is indeed alive. The story hasn't depicted anything otherwise. Maybe there'll be changes in the future, but for now, Uta's part in the manga continues with them being alive.
I would recommend 'Uta's Hidden Affection'. In this fanfiction, the development of the relationship between Uta and the reader is really interesting. It starts with small interactions that gradually build into something deeper. The description of Uta's character is very accurate to his original personality in the source material.
Saya no Uta is a dark and psychological visual novel. It often involves themes of love, madness, and the human psyche. The screencaps from it might give glimpses into its unique art style and the various in - game scenarios that contribute to its overall disturbing yet thought - provoking narrative.
The theme of acceptance is quite common. Fem Luffy often has to be accepted by the other characters in the story. This could be because she's different due to her gender or her slightly different personality traits. Also, the theme of self - discovery is prevalent. As fem Luffy navigates the pirate world, she discovers more about herself, her abilities, and her place in the grand scheme of things.
😋According to the information you provided, I would like to recommend Life and Death with One Sword. The main character of the book, Tianjing Sha, could be said to have cultivated his sword to the peak of perfection, from seven stabs to twelve and three stabs. At the same time, the book was also a traditional wuxia novel, filled with elements such as swords, heroes, brotherhood, and so on. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
