People who connect through the Match-to-Match app get into street fights in the hope of earning cash and fame. Kagome Mahiro, an 18-year-old school dropout, rescues Mikio, a highschooler who is being harassed by a group of delinquants who use the app. Soon the two become embroiled in a fierce battle.

Fukami is a high school janitor whose father was a gangster.
