First year Ban Nobutaka brings a club application form saying he wants to join the kabaddi team. Ban is a bit of an odd one who wears his hair in a pompadour, has a mean look to his eyes, and in spite of all that, has a tiny, quiet voice. He arrives at the gym with two fellow first years, Seki Ryuta and Hitomi Yuki, who say he invited them to come along. The truth is, this man called Ban has met Yoigoshi back in second grade. It all happened one very hot day...
If you're hopeless, our senpai 
aren't going to want you!
Wenn ihr nichts drauf habt, wollen
die Senpais euch auch nicht, klar?
Si no tienen potencial,
los superiores tampoco los aceptarán.
Si no tenéis potencial,
los superiores tampoco os aceptarán.
Les autres vous rejetteront
si vous êtes pas prometteurs.
Se siete troppo scarsi, 
è inutile far perdere tempo ai senpai!
Se não levarem jeito, os senpais 
também vão rejeitá-los!
Если ничего не покажете, 
старшие не захотят вас брать!
