His longtime friend, Oume Hiromichi, who works as an editor at a manga publisher, gets him a job. Kampachi has to restart his life and needs to learn everything from scratch but he brings the same passion he had for boxing to being an editor and fights his way through the corporate world, round by round.
One night, young Gen Minahiro escapes from a reformatory with only one witness: the moon. Years earlier Gen, now nicknamed Don-chan, spends his days with Tetsuya.

Then comes the day when they meet their mysterious foreign neighbour Mr Coldman, and his sickly daughter Emi. They quickly become friends and, beneath a benevolent moon, Don-chan promises to portray her every year for her birthday. Years later, a terrible event radically changes their lives...

From MangaHelpers: Ten years ago, Nanase Kouhei was the top host of the Roppongi district of Tokyo. He gave that life up, though, to become a husband, father, and company man. Now, he has a beautiful wife, Momoko, and a little daughter, Orie, who will be going to school in a few years. They also just bought an apartment and have a large long-term loan to pay off for it. Then one unfortunate day, Kouhei is laid off from his job. Now he faces the terrifying prospect of caring for his family, when he has no guarantee of finding a decent new job. It's enough to make Kouhei quietly turn back to his previously successful career as a Roppongi district host, and he returns to his old club "Rink." But can a 31-year-old man really make a comeback in such a young man's industry? [tethysdust]
