Synopsis

Bullied boy returns to face childhood tormentors, confronting past defeats and evolving relationships in unexpected ways.

For most of his childhood, Kotarou Hinode has been relentlessly bullied by three exceptional peers: a basketball prodigy, a talented wrestler, and a gaming genius. Driven by his competitive spirit, Kotarou repeatedly challenges them in their respective fields, only to face defeat each time. Despite these setbacks, he remains determined and makes a promise to himself before moving away. Years later, Kotarou returns to his hometown as a high school student, carrying with him the weight of his childhood experiences. Now reunited with his former rivals, he finds himself in an unexpected situation where past and present collide in ways he never anticipated. As he navigates this new chapter of his life, Kotarou must confront not only his old adversaries but also the complex emotions and relationships that have evolved over time.
