Synopsis

The story follows the journey of gloomy and introverted high school freshman, Aoba Suzuki, as he enters the world of MMA. Aoba had been living a satisfactory school life, getting beaten up by his classmate Iwase Sannosuke in what he called “play-fighting.” One day, Aoba encountered the prodigy of the martial arts world, Akazawa Kenshin, from the neighboring class, and was angered by Kenshin’s remark “You’re empty, aren’t you?” Resolving to one day land a punch on Kenshin, Aoba enrolled in the nearly defunct Shark Gym, introduced by Sannosuke, and aims for the top of the “MMA High School Championship” under the guidance of his mentor, Wataru Amachi.
