Every year several villages and territories within the fold of Pei-Shi City send fighters and warriors to participate in a grand fighting tournament known as the Daziki Climax. Several combatants put body and pride on the line to win money, fame, and reputation for their village, and many use less savory tactics to come out on top. Kuu's village is a victim of such tactics, her sister being attacked before the tournament even begins by an unknown assailant. With her sister unable to fight, Kuu must take her place as the village's champion, both out of duty, and for revenge.
