His life changes completely when he enrolls in high school, the first school he has ever attended. Despite his eccentric behavior and being a constant source of troubles, he is soon recognized for his talent in sports-especially in Kendo (the Japanese swordplay art)—and becomes the school's hero.

Side notes: This is really really old series and I's surprised when I noticed the publishing dates. This maybe the reason why the translation is in hiatus or totally stopped status. Still if lucky one can find it from online.
