The main character, Araji Tomobishi, is just an ordinary high school student. He meets his tough old friend, Mataka Asamine, who leads a gang called Bucchigiri.
Asamine asks Tomobishi to join the gang and help fight against other gangs in the city. But Tomobishi soon realized it was more difficult than he thought. They fight against powerful enemies and a mysterious danger that lurks them all.
This anime definitely has many similarities with Tokyo Revengers. Both delve into themes of friendship, rivalry and redemption, with the protagonist starting out as a timid underdog but transforming into a force to be reckoned with by tackling challenges and difficult risks.
Summarize
Bucchigiri?! Episode 7 is called Group Date The Sea, Maji Croquette, and it’s a bit of a calmer episode, taking a break from the usual intense battles seen in the anime.
The episode begins with Arajin being praised for his punch, then quickly fleeing Matakara. As they walked towards the infirmary to find Marito, Arajin and Matakara talked about Matakara’s brother.
When they got there, Mahoro showed that he didn’t like Arajin very much, and to his surprise, Marito ate Mahoro’s cooking even though he usually doesn’t like it.
Next, they plan a group date, which turns out completely different from what Arajin had in mind. Instead, they find themselves participating in a wrestling tournament.
In the tournament, Matakara and Marito reached the finals. Marito came very close to winning, but in the end, Arajin’s humorous behavior messed things up, and Matakara and Arajin ended up winning the tournament. Meanwhile, Ichiya considers Arajin and Senya to be Emperors.
