One autumn day in 2046, Haruyuki has an encounter with Kuroyukihime, the prettiest girl in his school. For the middle school boy who is often bullied, the meeting changes his life.

In that moment, the lowest of the "school caste" becomes "Burst Linker", a knight defending a princess.

My thoughts:
He is a middle school student and is overweight. He has been bullied for many years and because of that likes to go to places where no one is, like the squash game on the local network at school.
I cannot remember for as long as I have been watching anime, a "chubby" male lead before. After watching the pvs, I like him and will be rooting for him.
