We're live in front of Rakuhon Secondary School here in Kyoto, where five students who practiced boxing have been hospitalized after what was supposed to be a harmless 'boxing game' ended tragically.
According to reports, the students fell down a staircase behind the main building. Three of them suffered broken arms, one broke his leg, and the fifth… suffered fractures in both arms and both legs.
The school administration classified the incident as a simple accident among friends, but security camera footage shows that the five were practicing boxing moves and didn't notice the stairs at the moment of the fall.
More updates as they come, live from TV Kyoto 5.

On the first day of class, the teacher introduces the new student to the class.
Students, please welcome our new classmate, Yami Norikami!
Yami entered shyly, looking down with a barely audible voice:
Hi... my name is Yami Norikami. I came to this school because I had some problems at my old school... I hope we can get along.
From the back of the classroom, whispers and giggles started spreading.
Here comes the new punching bag... a mocking whisper.
He looks like he's about to collapse at any moment, others laughed.
Yami felt his face heat up and lowered his head even more, trying to ignore them.
---
Class ends. The hallway is crowded with students rushing out of their classrooms.
Suddenly, a group of bullies blocked Yami's way, their expressions full of malice.
So, Yami... why did you leave your old school? Kaito asked, with a cruel smile.
Let me guess... couldn't handle the bullying, right? Renji laughed beside him.
Yami swallowed hard, his eyes desperately searching for an escape.
At that moment, a firm voice cut through the tension:
Stop it! Get out of here now!
Akane, the class representative, appeared between Yami and the bullies, staring them down without fear.
The boys exchanged surprised glances and slowly backed away.
Yami looked at Akane, feeling a mix of surprise and relief.
Maybe starting over here wouldn't be so hard.
He smiled, still shy, and she gave him a welcoming smile.

After class, as Yami was getting ready to leave, Akane appeared by his side.
Hey, Yami, come with me.
He hesitated:
I need to go home...
Just come. You won't regret it, she insisted, with a look that wouldn't accept no for an answer.
Reluctantly, Yami followed her through the campus until she turned toward a dark alley.
Instinct and suspicion flared inside Yami.
Why do you want to take me to this alley? he asked cautiously.
Akane smiled, feigning innocence.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Stop lying, it's kinda obvious, he replied.
How did you find out? she laughed.
Instinct, he said firmly.
Akane laughed out loud.
Instinct, huh? Wow, what are you? The protagonist of some novel?
Why do you want to take me there? Are you going to hit me?
She raised her hand in an authoritative gesture.
I'm not. Attack him!

Kaito appeared, furious:
I'm gonna smash you up!
Renji came behind him, holding a piece of pipe.
He hit Yami in the head, and Yami fell to the ground.
Akane smiled cruelly:
You're disgusting for smiling at me. You should disappear. But I'll give you a chance: if you pay me every time I ask, they won't mess with you.
Yami, sarcastic:
Keep dreaming.
Get lost! Akane shouted.
Renji lunged at Yami.
But he quickly got up, stomping the ground for momentum and threw a precise punch at Renji's head, knocking him down, but he got up quickly.
Get lost! Renji repeated, grabbing the pipe to attack again.
Yami dodged easily.
Irritated, Renji threw the pipe at him.
Yami caught the pipe in mid-air and threw it at Kaito, who fell unconscious.
Yami took the opportunity to kick Renji in the stomach, who collapsed.
Without hesitation, he charged at Renji, throwing punches while laughing wildly.
I came to Shizuoka to avoid trouble, pretending to be just some extra, but this isn't for me! I just want to beat someone up!
Kaito tried to grab him to strangle him, but Yami elbowed him in the stomach, kicked the wall to gain momentum and, in a quick move, broke free.
With force, he turned the tables and began strangling Kaito until he passed out.
Before Renji could react, Yami delivered a kick directly to his head.
