Synopsis
Karate student Tasuku bullies childhood friend Ryouta to hide his crush while discovering mysterious family powers.
High school student Tasuku Mizuochi has a secret he knows and a secret he doesn't. Even though he punches, kicks, and otherwise abuses fellow karate team member, Ryouta, on a daily basis, Tasuku has hidden feelings for his childhood friend. Confused and embarrassed by his secret crush, Tasuku takes his frustrations out on Ryouta to keep him from ever knowing the truth. When Tasuku begins to suspect he might have inherited a mysterious family trait, strange things start happening around him. As their relationship grows more complicated, will Tasuku ever find the courage to face his true feelings, or will his own fears keep pushing Ryouta away? (Source: DokiDoki)
