Shortly after transferring he becomes a target of Rin Onigawara, a member of the Five Ruling Swords that commands the school. In order break free he must defeat the Five Ruling Swords. Kadokawa previously streamed a promotional video for the manga in December 2015.

Kanzaki began the series based on Kurokami's story in Monthly Shonen Ace in March 2014, and Kadokawa shipped the fourth compiled volume in February. Kadokawa will ship the fifth compiled volume on July 26. The first three chapters are available to read for free in Japanese on the ComicWalker website
