Furin High School's first-year Class 1 is infamous for its group of strong fighters.

A tremendously loud voice echoes throughout the school, interrupting the fight between the two young men. The owner of that voice that instantly changed the mood of the entire school is none other than Umemiya, the Representative of Bofurin.
