It makes you re-read a slacker. Jin rolls in late, sleeps through the entire period, answers everything with the dumbest available option, and the whole school has him filed as the class clown. Then the rumor turns out to be true: the legendary bike gang leader is real, and he's sitting in the back row drooling on a desk. Bucchigiri gets its charge from that gap, because when Jin and two of his old crew take the field against the baseball captain who picked the fight, they don't play like athletes, they play like a gang that found a new way to settle it. Four episodes in 1989, all bousouzoku swagger poured into a sports mold, and the past does not stay a rumor forever. The pleasure is watching a guy who quit being someone remember exactly how good he was at it.

Jin's classmates see him as a hot-headed class clown. He wanders in late, sleeps through lessons and meets every situation with reckless stupidity. Few realize that the rumor about him is true: he once led a legendary biker gang. After he starts a rivalry with the captain of the school baseball team, Jin and two of his former gang members become the team's star players. Before long, though, his past catches up with him. The four-episode OVA from 1989 is a sports story built around school baseball.
