Bucchigiri?! Episode 1 recap

The first episode of Bucchigiri?! starts with Arajin, who looks self-conscious as it’s his first day in the new school; he’s clueless about how people will treat him. However, Arajin is also happy as he will meet new girls at the school. His world comes crashing down when he finds out that the school is dominated by two groups of delinquents: Siguma Squad and Minato Kai.

Arajin befriends Mahoro, his batchmate, but when he is about to go to meet her after school, he is stopped by one of the delinquents. When Arajin tries to run from the location, he comes across one of his acquaintances from the past. The new entry turns out to be Matakara Asamine. Looking at their faces, it’s pretty clear that the duo must have gone through some serious problems in the past.

After some time, when Arajine tries to scare the delinquents with a gun he finds on the road, he gets unconscious and falls to the ground. When he wakes up, he witnesses a genie-like creature in front of him, who asks him to make any wish, and it will be fulfilled.
