Kenichi the Mightiest Disciple

The Place where the Heroes Gather

While running late for class, Kenichi bumps in to the new transfer student Miu. At the karate club, Kenichi is challenged by another student Daimonji for a match. With the loser losing the right to be a member of the club. On the way home, Kenichi is awed when he sees Miu easily defeat a group of thugs. On Miu's advice, he heads to the RyĹŤzanpaku dojo to train in martial arts.

The First Step! The Start of the Battle!

Kenichi begins his training at the RyĹŤzanpaku dojo under the guidance of Akisame. The training focuses on building strength and stamina. Concerned about Kenichi's fight with Daimonji, Miu secretly teaches him a stepping technique to maneuver around. Even though Kenichi is able to defeat Daimonji at the challenge, he yields his membership of the karate club after being accused of using a throw in a karate match.

Strength and Courage! For Protecting Justice!

After watching Kenichi defeat Daimonji, Tsukuba, the strongest member of the karate club, gets suspicious of Kenichi's abilities. At the school Miu, joins the girl's gymnastics club and soon becomes the center of attention after displaying her abilities at gymnastics. Kenichi desperately tries to avoid Tsukuba, but is soon caught and gets beaten to a pulp. Seeing Kenichi repent his loss to Tsukuba, Akisame decides to start training him in some martial arts techniques.

Fighting Hell! To Fight Or Not To Fight

Kenichi is easily defeated by Tsukuba despite his heavy training, so he becomes greatly demotivated. With a desire to become stronger and more courageous, Akisame-sensei agrees to finally teach him martial art fighting techniques. Kenichi is put through more rigorous training from the four masters of martial arts. Sakaki-sensei takes a liking to him, so he teaches him a technique that a Sports Karate Style user is vulnerable to. Eventually Kenichi runs into Tsukuba and fights him again, this time he uses the techniques taught to him and he emerges victorious in the battle. Little does he know what troubles he will face as a result of it in the future.

With the news of Kenichi's victory over Tsukuba spreading all over, the strongest gang in the prefecture Ragnarok now has their eyes set on Kenichi.

All of Kenichi's attacks seem to have no affect on Shinnosuke. Even though Kenichi is stronger, his opponent has more fighting experience so he is still at a disadvantage.

Kenichi becomes careless and is knocked to the ground and is about to be torn apart, Takeda comes and punches Shinnosuke to one side and escapes carrying Kenichi back to the Ryouzanpaku dojo.
