Master of Torque

Set in Tokyo in 2017, just a few years before the city prepares to host the 2020 Olympic Games, the bustling metropolis undergoes extensive renovations, particularly on its intricate Shutoko highway system. Amidst the rapid urban development, the Hyuga Corporation emerges as a leader in innovative technology, having perfected the use of artificial muscle fibers. Their latest endeavor involves a powered suit designed to elevate ordinary individuals to the physical prowess of elite athletes, positioning the company for unprecedented growth and industry dominance.

At the heart of this corporate intrigue is Dan Amo, a seemingly average office worker at Hyuga Corp.'s General Affairs department. By day, he navigates a mundane corporate life, but by night, he finds exhilaration in the world of motorcycling. Unbeknownst to him, he is drawn into a web of fate alongside Makina Mikage, a determined freelance journalist investigating the enigmatic black-suited riders that haunt Route 246, and Kotaro Hyuga, the ambitious heir to the corporation's legacy. As their paths intertwine, the trio finds themselves entangled in a high-stakes game that threatens to reshape their lives forever.
