Plot

Pushed to the brink, delinquent Kiyoshi Oze takes on the world of sumo as a wrestler under the name "Enno," captivating fans with his cocky attitude — and upsetting an industry steeped in tradition.
While sumo is known across the globe as a part of traditional Japanese culture and a religious ritual passed down for over 1,500 years, the world of this sport remains veiled in secrecy.
Unmotivated to train, often skipping practice and defying his more experienced seniors, Oze is branded as a hopeless case, but he gradually delves deeper into the world of sumo. This human drama depicts Oze and the young people surrounding the world of sumo as they struggle to find their way in life, including Shimizu, who loves the sport but is not blessed with an ideal physique, and Kunishima, a newspaper reporter who gets relegated to covering sumo.
