Kengan Ashura

Synopsis

In the corporate-driven setting of Kengan Ashura, major business decisions are resolved through combat between hired fighters instead of standard negotiations.

After being recruited by Hideki Nogi, he allies with the Nogi Group, and the ordinary middle-aged man Kazuo Yamashita takes on the role of his manager. Together, they face fierce tournaments run by the Kengan Association, encountering powerful rivals driven by similar goals. Will they manage to achieve the highest level of their profession?
