Giyuu Tomioka is a sixteen-year-old student, timid and quiet. He isn’t very bright, barely passing his classes with minimum grades. Obanai Iguro is the same age, but his complete opposite: sociable, talkative, and exceptionally intelligent. His home is filled with academic diplomas, his marks always outstanding. The school principal selected Obanai to tutor Giyuu. As time passed, frustration grew—Giyuu retained nothing and seemed to ignore him ninety percent of the time, leaving Obanai to spend the other ten percent scolding him. Obanai’s patience finally snaps. “Damn it, Giyuu!” he bursts out, voice raw. “Are you just naturally mediocre, or are you actually stupid?” He stops. The words hang in the sudden quiet. Only now does he realize what he’s said.
