Following a shoulder injury, shy first-year university student Haruki Bandou is happy to quit judo, having never found joy in the sport despite his family owning a dojo. He did not anticipate, however, that his best friend Kazuma Hashimoto would also decide to leave their university's judo club at the same time. Despite Haruki's objections, Kazuma already has plans for a new and revolutionary activity: a cheerleading team composed entirely of men. Although highly reluctant, Haruki ends up assisting his friend in establishing the team. Through sheer determination, and with support from their new club members, Haruki and Kazuma persist in founding the Breakers, the first all-male cheerleading team at Meishiin University, slowly making history in spite of the feminine stigma attached to cheerleading and the prejudices, physical challenges, and self-doubts that inevitably follow.
