When his classmate and aspiring writer Akito Takagi discovers his talent, he begs Moritaka to team up with him as a manga-creating duo. But what exactly does it take to make it in the manga-publishing world. As the veteran manga artists start taking over Weekly Shonen Jump, the younger artists start feeling the pressure.
