Megalo Box

Synopsis: "To be quiet and do what they told you, that's the coward choice." These are the words of Junk Dog, a megalo box underground fighter, an evolution of boxing that uses mechanical limbs known as equipment to improve the speed and power of its users. Despite the potential of transmission of the young as a boxer, the illegal nature of his participation forces him to earn his life of playing matches, as dictated by his chief Gansaku Nanbu. However, all of this changes when the megalo box champion Yuuri enters his beaten ring under the disguise of just another challenger. Taken in a single round, Junk Dog gets a challenge: "If you're serious about fighting me again, then fight for me and my ring."

Filled with overwhelming arousal and supported by the criminal union responsible for his played matches, Junk Dog enters Megalonia: a worldwide slaughter tournament that will decide the strongest megalo boxer of all. Not having his own name, he assumes the nickname "Joe" when he begins his background of the classified combatant list. With just three months remaining to qualify, Joe must face opponents, as he never struggled to face the challenge of his rival.
