Teaching Geniuses in Tokyo

Transported to a parallel version of Tokyo during Japan’s bubble era, Kitahara Sosuke acquires a unique Mentor System that allows him to absorb his disciples’ talents and reflect them back onto himself. Seizing this opportunity, he begins recruiting prodigies from diverse fields, including shogi, manga, kendo, and baseball. As time passes, Kitahara earns distinct reputations across various industries: he is hailed as the genius of the Fourth File in shogi, affectionately d믭 the “Warrior of Love” and “Old Thief Kitahara” by manga fans, and his gaming company is regarded as the “Black Ship” of the new age. Amidst his professional success, rumors swirl through Tokyo regarding his close relationships with the brilliant minds he mentors, including Japan’s first female Ryūō, groundbreaking manga collaborations, and the training of the Heisei era’s first female sword saint.
