At a new high school, she finds new friends brave enough to support her as she meets new combatants, as she struggles to refind that spark of inspiration that drove her to her first success as a gymnast. Maki's story of her combative adventure moves from the martial arts into the mystical arts, as she struggles to find even stronger opponents. |

In the Kanto Plain of Japan, high schools in the area are little more than fronts for what appear to be nothing more than gangs who all wear a strange earring. Within these schools, students fight to be the top-rated fighters in order to represent their school at the very unofficial Great Fighter's Tournament. However, what appears to be nothing more than thugs fighting street battles is in reality ancient Chinese history coming back to replay itself in modern times with students having names of various warriors from that time. |
