Synopsis for Rokudou no Onna-tachi

Tousuke Rokudou is a first-year student who attends Aomori High School, a school full of delinquents. He is often bullied by classmates due to his incompatibility with his behavior, the only exceptions being his two good friends of his who are also social outcasts. Frustrated with the way they are treated, the three wish they could stand up and reclaim the fun and peaceful school life of their dreams. However, Tousuke’s life takes a drastic turn when he receives a package from his late grandfather containing a family heirloom, a scroll that is said to have the power to save him from imminent danger.

Holding the scroll, a sudden glow emanates, leaving a strange mark on Tousuke’s forehead. Thinking that he has received the means to free himself and his friends from his daily treatment, Tousuke is surprised to discover that his effects are very different from what he had imagined. Though the harassment of him continues, he realizes that the scroll mark acts as an amulet, capturing the hearts of delinquent girls, particularly Ranna Himawari, the strongest of them all.
