1991. The entire life of sixth‑grader Haruo Yaguchi revolves around video games. He is not popular at school, he is not handsome, he lacks a sense of humor and has no friends. The only thing Haruo does well is spend whole days killing time in game centers. One day, during another trip to the arcade, he meets his classmate Akira Ono there. Unlike Haruo, she is beautiful, popular and wealthy. And how surprised the boy was when this girl crushed him in Street Fighter 2! Only on the 30th game does Haruo win. After that Akira constantly pursues Haruo after school, repeatedly challenging him in various games. Thus their strange bond and friendship begin to form.
