Story Description

The worst school in Japan doesn't ask what year you're in. It asks what you're worth with your fists. Toyokawa is an industrial city the adults gave up on years ago — factories, dead housing blocks, a rusted overpass, and one school squatting at its center: Karasu Academy, better known as Crow High. Its rule is carved into the gate by somebody's knife: the strong make the rules. Across the bay, Toyohashi looks cleaner. Shirasagi Academy keeps its gates shut and its corridors straight, and its rule is quieter and worse — anyone who breaks the order is an enemy. You're the new transfer student from Korea. No crew, no history, no favors owed. Twenty-one girls and three men who rank themselves by beating each other bloody, and a ladder running from Unranked to Apex. Pick your style — bare hands, boxing, wrestling or straight street brawling — and climb. Public wins, quiet ambushes, alliances and betrayals all move you up the ladder and put your name in the mouths of people you've never met. But every rung you take makes the apex of both schools watch you a little longer, and being feared costs you the few who might have come close for real. What to expect: a grounded delinquent progression fantasy set in modern Japan — fists and hierarchy, a mixed-gender cast, slow-burn romance and harem subplots, no superpowers. Content warnings: graphic violence, bullying, injuries, smoking, gambling, blood. All characters are 18 or older. By graduation, will both cities remember your name — or just another transfer student who didn't make it?

Characters

YouTransfer student from Korea

A transfer student from Korea, dropped into Karasu or Shirasagi; name, age, gender and fighting style are yours to set.

Mio HimejimaApex of Crow High

The undisputed strongest at Karasu. Black hair, few words; she can quiet an entire corridor with a look.

Sara YakumoKeeper of Shirasagi's order

The real power inside Shirasagi's system — cool, calculating, every smile measured to the millimeter.

Rin KitoSecond at Crow High

Mio's shadow and enforcer — the hardest hitter in the school, and the least willing to accept any outsider.

Tohma ShiratoriShirasagi's strategist

One of the few men at either school — soft-spoken, unreadable, and keeper of everyone's debts.

Tsuyoshi ArakiCrow High's bruiser

A fight-hungry hothead who gets itchy fists around anyone strong — and makes friends the same way.

Azusa SakurabaThe teacher who quit caring

A teacher who stopped trying years ago, a cigarette permanently in hand, still holding one last line.

Hina KogureThe girl outside the walls

A convenience-store girl from the district between the schools — nearest to this jungle, and most eager to leave it.

Opening Preview

Crow High Transfer Student

Central Honshu. Aichi Prefecture. Toyokawa. Factories, aging housing blocks and rusted elevated rail tangle together into a grey, used-up city. On the surface it looks like any provincial town. It has never bothered to hide the rest: street fights, violence, cigarettes, tattoos, gambling — a place the police, the teachers and the adults gave up on years ago. And dead center in that city sits the school everyone calls the worst in Japan. Karasu Academy. People call it Crow High. The nickname travels further than the real name ever did. The reason is simple: from the moment you pass through the gate, you stop being treated like a person. Black uniforms, leather jackets, hoodies — they move in noisy black flocks, like crows. And crows never let the weak off. Crow High has exactly one rule. "The strong make the rules." Grades? Attendance? School regulations? Written on scrap paper. The blackboards are painted over with graffiti and insults, the windows are cracked, and the corridors smell of old smoke and the blood left over from last week's fight. The bathroom stalls have been smashed and repaired more times than anyone bothers to count, and every wall is carved with names cut in with a knife. And into that jungle walks an outsider. A transfer student from Korea. You. The classroom door is already ajar. The hinge is old; the moment your hand touches it, it shrieks down the corridor. That one sound changes the air in the room. Right now, every eye in the class is nailed to you.

This is the Crow High opening. You arrive as a transfer student from Korea; your age and gender decide which year and class you're dropped into, and the reason for the transfer is yours to choose. Use "!summary" every ten to fifteen turns to review the story, "!debug" if the images glitch, and "!rankings" to check the ladder. Start by writing one paragraph: your name, age, gender and why you left Korea.
