Stemming from the notion that the search for rebirth has an effect on literary works, the rebirth story (SAISEI SETUWA) has come into being. There are many stories that confirm the existence of the "death book," questioning whether people really die. In the Chinese classical rebirth story of Six Dynasties, the contents of the "death book" can be confirmed and categorized as " Human remains," "Descriptions of names and hometowns," "Whether names are entered or not," and "Unknown." Also, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the content of the "death book" in Six Dynasties poetry is based on the rebirth doctrine and introduces Buddhist elements to establish a new basis for "prostration and offerings for blessings." Elements of "prostration and offerings for blessings" to achieve rebirth are common in China and Japan, but there are also differences in the application of the "death book." Lastly, the Japanese rebirth story, based on the Jizo bodhisattva doctrine of the Heian period, is completely different from the Chinese use of the "death book." Jizo Bodhisattva dominates the "death book" with pictorial depictions for people.

Many rebirth stories have been made since ancient times, and even today, it is used in various genres such as novels and movies. There were also many rebirth stories in which animals killed by humans appealed to the lord of the underworld and called the person who killed them to the underworld. In the Chinese rebirth story, the roles played by animals are mainly classified into five types. On the other hand, Japanese rebirth stories are characterized by incorporating four types of elements, "leading", "litigation", "defense", and "reward", with the theme of "killing" and "life release". It can be seen that while incorporating elements of Chinese rebirth stories, Japanese rebirth stories created a unique narrative pattern depending on the social background and the purpose of Buddhist proselytizing.

Japan has problems with the declining birth rate and all university applicants can pass the examination to enter the university. Thus, universities must accept diverse students who lack of preparation for studying. As a result, diverse students tend to dropout of the university. It will negatively impact universities and students. However, the action is insufficient to avoid dropouts. Therefore, I study the six cases for preventing dropouts. The better actions include cultivate human resource management, reform the organization, create a place for students, conduct data analysis, commit to a sense of belonging to the university, and reorganize the entrance examination that are connected with the university vision and the student needs.
