Meet Recca Hanabishi, a regular high-school kid who hopes one day to become a ninja, and whose life is unexpectedly thrown for a loop the day he meets a cute and mysterious girl named Yanagi. Suddenly, the teenager discovers he's had super ninja secret powers all along.

Together with his friends Fuko and Domon, Recca slowly learns how to navigate the ancient and ofttimes arcane world of ninja warriors. But the winsome teen has an ace up his sleeve: Not only does he already possess the skills of a ninja, he also harbors the ability to control fire.

Story and art by Nobuyuki Anzai.
