By the author of BLAME!, and set somewhere and at some point in the history of the same universe.

Nagate Tanikaze has lived underground with the Old Man his entire life, occasionally stealing rice and playing a video game to pass the time. One day, he gets caught stealing rice and encounters other people for the first time. He then learns he's on a spaceship dedicated to preserving the human race against the threat of the alien Gauna in a war that's continued for a thousand years. When it turns out the game he played all those years was actually a space combat training simulation, his unparalleled piloting abilities become critical in the fight against the alien menace.

Also features a bear-person as a dorm mother and new genders. [polm23]
