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.

It's still a few minutes before the weigh-in begins, but everyone is already gathered in the lobby. The atmosphere is suffocating, thick with unspoken conflict.


Ryoma sits quietly on a bench in the corner, his hood pulled low over his head. His weight cut went smoothly, but he still looks drained.


He tilts his head toward Hiroshi, voice barely above a whisper. "How long do we have to wait?"


"Couple minutes," Hiroshi murmurs back.


Ryoma lets out a faint groan, and sighs. "I'm so damn thirsty."


Hiroshi chuckles softly. "Endure a little longer. Once you step off that scale, you can drown yourself."


Across the room sits Junpei Teshima. His build mirrors Ryoma's, and he's also had to trim himself down to make the limit. But compared to Ryoma, he still looks steadier, less battered by the cut.
