Ryoma Takeda was once a rising star in the ring, an Interhigh champion, a golden boy with fists of promise. But one bitter loss on his pro debut shattered his confidence. A freak accident soon after stole his leg.

His career vanished. His fiancée left him. And all he had left were reruns of that one damn fight… and a hundred different regrets.

Then, just as he hits rock bottom, fate does the unthinkable. He wakes up ten years in the past, on the very night of his first professional match.

But this time, something’s different.

[System Initialized: Vision Grid Active]
“Your eyes see the truth beneath motion. Use it well.”

Armed with the Vision Grid System, a combat-assist module that turns his visual perception into tactical mastery, Ryoma now has a second chance.

To fix his mistakes.
To chase the career he lost.
To protect the mother he failed.
And to prove to the woman who left… that she let go of someone she’ll never replace.

But boxing isn't just a sport. It's war of bodies, of minds, of hearts.

And Ryoma Takeda is done losing.

Ryoma walks through the crowd with Hiroshi, eyes scanning faces. He knows most of these kids will fade into obscurity, but not all.


In his previous life, he didn't participate but still followed the event. And amongst these faces, a few of them actually turned into fine boxers. He even spots the one who won it, but of course, he isn't that interested in that guy.


But then, as he keeps scanning, he suddenly stops at one person. Across the plaza, leaning against the low wall with his hands shoved in his pockets, is Shunpei Noguchi.


Ryoma's breath hitches. And just like that, his Vision Grid System flares across his sight:


NOTES: Clinch fouls, headbutts, low blows. 


PAST TIMELINE: Defeated Ryoma (3rd career loss). 


TRAIT: Dirty Fighter – thrives in chaos.


Ryoma scowls at the sight of the man's face.
