Kizzu Ritân plot
Masaru and Shinji aren't exactly the model apprentices who will do whatever it takes to succeed in Japan's performance society. When they are already at school, most of their time is spent extorting fellow students or disrupting classes. More often, however, they sit in the cafe and have conversations. When the toughest of the two, Masaru, is beaten up one day, he decides to get into boxing. Shinji meekly follows his friend and soon turns out to have the necessary talent. He can become a professional boxer and possibly even a champion. In a sparring match provoked by Masaru, Shinji KOs his friend. The ambitious Masaru decides to quit boxing and makes a fast career with the local Yakuza.
