Ranking of Kings

Bojji, a prince in a world where kings are ranked by their deeds and skills, is considered unfit to be the next king due to his disabilities. He runs into Kage, a shadow being with whom he can converse.

Bojji learns about Kage's tragic childhood; Domas instructs Bojji to use a more regal fighting style after his fight with Daida.

The day of reckoning arrives as King Bosse passes away. A mysterious devil - like figure appears and laughs maniacally while pointing at Prince Bojji. The new king was then to be decided in accordance to the late king's will.

A panellist from the Ranking of Kings Committee visits the kingdom to give Daida his ranking; while travelling, Bojji encounters an unusual hunter who teaches him about the mystery of life; an attempt is made on Bojji's life.

Surviving Domas's attack, Bojji is surprised to find Kage alongside him all this time. However, a mysterious poisonous gas seemingly appears and knocks Bojji and Kage out. Daida seeks out King Bosse's power to increase his rank.

Bojji and Kage meet Desha, the king of the underworld, who is said to be able to make ordinary men into powerful kings; however, after testing Bojji's skill level, Desha refuses to train him; Apeas finds Daida and the mirror, and must choose a side.
