Takeru enrolls in Tenbi Academy—an all-girl school that just went co-ed—with dreams of being smothered by chicks. To his surprise, it’s actually a school where teens beef up their combat skills using a magic power called a Maken. Distracted by all the bouncy brawlers, Takeru gets himself in a sticky situation—the hornball can’t figure out how to use his Maken!
