content
Middle school student Akira Shiroyanagi is an avid gamer and because he is so good at school he can even play there during class. But not only is he bored with the lessons, his games are also too little challenging for him. When one day he met a giant on his way to school who challenged him to a fight, he finally felt the thrill again. Akira can actually win, but is attacked by a girl shortly afterwards and passes out. He wakes up in a strange place with others who have also been abducted. They are all considered dead and are now supposed to take part in a competition for the magician Mion. For this they have been given special skills - each one a different one - which are mostly kept under control by their handcuffs. Akira finally finds the challenge he's been looking for in this competition.
