Kosaku Hatanaka is a talented boxer, but he’s also a major headache for his coach. Sure, Kosaku has trouble keeping his weight down, but that’s the least of his troubles. He’s also in love with a nun, Sister Angela, who seems to have similar feelings for him—although clearly that’s a relationship better left unexplored, if the two can control their fervent desires. Worse still is that another young woman has feelings for him: the beautiful and vibrant Kana, who has just broken up with her boyfriend and seems to be looking to Kosaku to fill the emotional, and physical, void in her life. As if all that weren’t bad enough, Kana’s ex-boyfriend just happens to be Hiroshi Yashamaru, the boxer Kosaku is scheduled to fight in the near future. The heartsick Hiroshi was planning to drop out of the fight, until he discovered who Kana has been hanging around with. Now he’s counting the minutes until it happens….

Written and drawn by Rumiko Takahashi, this lighthearted black-and-white series is published by Viz Comics.
