Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki Staff ©

Fumito Gotetsu (Shinichi Tsutsumi) is an astrophysicist with a brilliant mind and holds vast knowledge. While working as an associate professor at a university, he studies the black hole. He has isolated himself from others and lives solely to find interesting, but, difficult, problems to solve. One day, he visits the practice for a wheelchair rugby team, that his cousin Masami Hino coaches. The wheelchair rugby team hasn’t won in the past 3 years and the players keep arguing with each other. The team is a perennial underdog, who seems like they will never win, but Fumito Gotetsu becomes excited about the team and thinks that the team poses an interesting challenge to solve. Even though he has no idea about the rules in rugby, he declares that he will help the team to become the no.1 team. He approaches the players with sincerity and gets to know about their personal lives. This allows him to face his own problem.
