Kirishima is the number one high school flanker in Japan. He is the older twin brother of Kirishima Kokuto. He began playing rugby in high school because of his favorite anime character (Ririn) who likes strong people. He is the best flanker in the Kanagawa region, with his brother being second.

Gion Kenji is short and perpetually pissed off about it. Iwashimizu Sumiaki is tall but timid. Although it's bullies that bring this unlikely pair together on the first day of high school, it's the rugby club that will make them friends.
