Summary

High school student You Satou loves SEGA games and lives a typical life until he stumbles upon an unexpected phenomenon at his local supermarket. While attempting to purchase a half-priced bento for dinner, You loses consciousness and wakes up to find all the bentos sold out. Confused, he soon learns about the fierce nightly battles waged over these discounted meals. Known as "Wolves," the participants fight with honor and pride to claim their prize. Drawn into this world, You is recruited by Sen Yarizui, the formidable leader of the Half-Pricer Club, who forces him to join their ranks and participate in the bento wars.

Determined to understand this bizarre new world, You embraces his new role in the Half-Pricer Club. Alongside Sen Yarizui and Hana Oshiroi, a girl who enjoys watching the chaotic battles, You learns the rules and strategies needed to survive and thrive in these nightly skirmishes. As they fight for their half-priced bentos, the trio forms a unique bond and uncovers what it truly means to battle for one's food. Through their adventures, You discovers courage, friendship, and the thrill of competition in a most unexpected place—the supermarket aisle.
