Synopsis
Confident boxer Renji seeks rematch after masked man violently defeats him, transforming his life.
Renji Shiba is 17 years old and, in addition to attending school, he trains at a boxing gym where his coaches have high hopes for him. Renji has complete confidence in his abilities, but having never encountered anyone at his level—or stronger—he no longer finds satisfaction in fighting. One night, however, while heading home from the gym, he crosses paths with a man wearing a theatrical mask. After a violent assault, Renji is left unconscious on the ground. When he wakes up, he has only one goal: to seek a rematch with this worthy opponent he has finally encountered. With Aka x Kuro, manga master Atsushi Kamijo presents a new two-volume work where beauty and violence intertwine to bring a radical change to the young protagonist’s life. Synopsis from the Italian publisher, Saldapress.
