In your daily life, there are many kinds of "neighbors." - A stubborn, unyielding young man who sits in the neighboring desk at work. A happy-go-lucky older guy always telling dirty jokes from the neighboring hospital bed. A tiny car with a terrible driver who parks way over to one side, just inside the line of the neighboring parking spot. It's not only the people living next door. In your daily life, there are many kinds of "neighbors." Falling in love, making memories, finding peace of mind... Five tales of the vibrant moments born when two people happen to become neighbors.
Area 11, or Japan, is occupied by the superpower, the Holy Britannian Empire. Two boys live there: Mario Diesel and Lelouch Lamperouge. While Japanese people are oppressed as Elevens, Mario lives his school life hiding the fact that he is half Britannian and half Japanese. Lelouch lives his days as the vice president of the school's student council, hiding his true identity as the prince of Britannia. The destinies of these two people who never crossed paths intersect due to a certain incident, and a story of revenge and rebellion begins. (Source: JumpToon, translated)

In Country H, following revisions to the Juvenile Law, minors convicted of serious crimes were sent to “rehabilitation facilities” (juvenile reformatories). However, in reality, these were merely nominal punishments where violence reigned supreme. High school student Gen Amemori, subjected to daily bullying, finally faces an injustice when his beloved dog is mauled to death by the dog of Kanemoto, the ringleader of the bullies. Enraged, Gen inflicts serious injuries on Kanemoto and is sent to the reformatory. There, he is mistreated as one of the lowest-ranking inmates, but eventually meets Shinya Koujou, the facility’s strongest fighter, who drills “the art of survival” into him. With his daily life stolen and his dignity trampled, Gen vows to carve out his own path through reality with his fists. Will he be swallowed by the spiral of violence, or will he fight back and break free? The counterattack from the bottom begins now! (Source: Piccoma, translated)
