Kojiro is a young teacher who supervises the kendo club in a high school. Due to his impoverished state, he barely has time to focus on his students, let alone himself. However, when an old friend challenges him to a bet for an entire year's worth of deluxe sushi, Kojiro discovers a new purpose in life - to lead his own kendo team to victory against his friend's team. In order to do so, he needs to assemble a five-woman squad, starting with Tamaki Kawazoe, an exceptional kendo athlete and daughter of a renowned kendo dojo master. Unfortunately, Tamaki is not interested in kendo for leisure, so Kojiro must find a way to convince her to join the team.
