Synopsis: At Kushima High School, the only law that reigns is that of the strongest. Shiiba Gaku is a student who recently transferred there. His goal is to defeat "Shake", the school's strongest student, in order to take control of it. The only thing is that Shiiba Gaku isn't as good of a fighter as he seems to think, but it doesn't stop him from relentlessly picking up fights in order to prove his strength without ever admitting defeat. His unique demeanour inspires some other students, Marumo Taiji, Urabe Osamu and Shiro Mukai, who gather the courage to run after the same dream.
Notes: Probably one of the worst opening credits I’ve ever listened to (well, I actually found myself dancing along after a few episodes lmao, so not that bad I guess?). This drama is absolutely ridiculous, but it’s funny and hella whumpy, why would I ask for more? I just wish women were not so objectified but, well, it’s Japan. Have fun and always keep fighting y’all!
NB: Timestamps might be off (< 1mn) depending on where you watch the show. I do not disclose any character death on purpose. The characters are listed by chronological order of whump in each episode.
