In a world where a student's worth is determined by their "Rank"...
About
On the surface, it is the nation's most prestigious elite school. Children of politicians, conglomerates, researchers, and celebrities gather here, and graduates proceed to the upper echelons of society. However, every student who enters is assigned a "Rank." At the time of admission, Gen was a standard A-Rank. His grades were excellent. He was athletic. He had a great reputation among the teachers. And yet, one morning. On the school monitors, "Gen Higashi: D-Rank" was displayed. The reason: "Determined based on regulations." That was all. No explanation was given to him. The friends he was talking to normally until yesterday suddenly distance themselves. Because, "Associating with a D-Rank may lower one's own evaluation." Can you save Gen?
