The year is 1991 and 6th grader Yaguchi Haruo only has video games to
live for. He's not popular in school and he's neither handsome, funny,
nice nor even friendly. The only thing he has going for him is that he
is good at video games. One day at the local arcade, he plays Oono
Akira, a fellow classmate but who's popular, smart, pretty and a rich
girl that absolutely destroys him at Street Fighter II. Not only does he
lose to her 30 times in a row, he can’t beat her at any
game. Haruo can’t seem to shake Akira off as she follows him
from arcade to arcade everyday after school and beats him every time.
As weird as it sounds, the odd couple begins a strange bond and
friendship.
Third runner-up for the 2013 Manga Taisho Awards.
