Ren is a second year student at Souwa High School. He is an ace attacker (raider) in the Kabaddi club. He's been annoyed by his free-spirited behavior, but his reach, speed, and extraordinary attack duration are among the best on the team. When he was in junior high school, he had the experience of winning the national championship in swimming.

Yoigoshi Tatsuya was a star soccer player known as "Yoigoshi the Unstoppable," but when he entered high school, he severed all involvement with sports. Now, he has been invited to a certain sports team. In these matches, victory is achieved through teammates working together to catch and defeat the opponents invading their territory... You could call it a sort of running combat sport. And the name of this game is...Kabaddi.<br><br>
