Eiji Akagi lives in the shadow of his accomplished family, burdened by a disdain for boxing and a talent for frustrating others with his guitar playing. His life takes an unexpected turn through an encounter with the younger sister of the town's reigning boxing champion.

The series follows Eiji’s journey as he grapples with personal identity, familial expectations, and the potential for finding purpose in an arena he never considered. Set against a backdrop of local boxing culture, the story explores themes of self-discovery and the unconventional paths to achieving one's potential, all while navigating relationships within a close-knit community. It offers a grounded portrayal of personal growth and the challenges of forging one’s own identity.
