Summary :
“Mixed martial arts, free fight, Shooto… Several words to define the same form of combat which brings together all the martial arts in one and the same hybrid, complete, flawless discipline. Meguru, a high school student practicing this art assiduously, stumbles upon his childhood friend, Takashi, whom he had not seen for seven years, during a tournament. But the opposite environments in which they grew up seem to have created a gap between them, and Takashi only seems to feel animosity towards Meguru… The ax falls then: Takashi will be his opponent for his first match!
