It is the year 2046. Augmented digital reality technologies and full virtual immersion have long become part of everyday life for ordinary people. But in the digital underworld, selected teenagers with heightened reflexes wage fierce battles on virtual arenas of the mysterious fighting game Brain Burst. In these fights they win acceleration points, which allow them to speed up thinking a thousand times—undoubtedly opening up many life prospects even for the weakest. Hiyouki Arita, a bullied fat boy and class outcast, gains access to the forbidden acceleration technology from the first beauty of the school, Black Snow White. Brain Burst is full of secrets and cruel rules, but for Haruyuki—whose life has taken a sharp turn—everything is only beginning.
